Random Giveaway: Land's End Backpack & $100 Giftcard



Goodness gracious! I feel great today. The red mailbox for our front porch arrived. The weather is fantastic. My mom is in town taking care of brand-new Petrea. My friend Linda gave me two vintage stools for me new office. Life is good.

And life is good for you too! Because I've got a great giveaway for this weekend. Leave a comment on this post to enter your name for a Cordura Zip Top Backpack and $100 Giftcard — both from Land's End!!



This backpack is fantastic. Super-well-made. With at least a dozen features, like padded shoulder straps, side pockets for water bottles or school supplies, and an MP3/CD player pouch with a cord port. It was designed to fit ages 7 and up and Land's End proclaims it as their "toughest pack". It retails for $39.50 and of course, it comes with the famous Land's End promise: Guaranteed. Period.

The one up for grabs in this Giveaway is magenta, but with the aforementioned guarantee, I'm sure you can exchange it for whatever color you love most of the five available.



The backpack would make a really nice prize on its own. But because I like to host extra-fabulous giveaways, Land's End is throwing in a $100 Giftcard to sweeten the deal. $100 to spend however you like on the fine Land's End merchandise of your choice.

If it were my $100 giftcard, I would be most tempted by:


This kid's Down Vest — only $25! — in ten colors. I could choose five different ones for each of my kids, and only have to pay for one.


Or these Wellington Boots available in seven colors.


Or this insulated Canvas Field Jacket. Perfect for apple picking.


Or this furry hat and gloves.

Am I craving cool weather or what? Now that school is in full swing and you've had a chance to evaluate your household's wardrobes and school gear, I'm sure you've got a list of items you need to pick up. So enter this Giveaway and if you win, it will be so lovely to let Land's End pick up the tab. Happy weekend, everybody.

Thank you Land's End!

Sometimes your giveaways strike just the right chord - the handle on my favourite tote bag that I use to bring my daughter's things to work with us just broke, and it's irreparable, and I was just thinking how nice it would be to get a backpack that either she or I could use. And I was haunting Land's End on for a snowsuit for her - they have GREAT kids' snowsuits.
