The First VeggieTales Review Contest has officially closed, and the e-mail has been sent to Mary of Home-Steeped Hope.  Make sure you can receive e-mails from PeterPlum[at]VeggieTalesReview[dot]net.

The winner has 24 hours from this post to reply to the e-mail, or we’ll pick another name.

For those of you interested in how the drawing was made, I awarded points as stated in the contest rules, placing those that subscribed to the top of the list.  For each point you had, you received a range of numbers in excel.  I then had excel select a random number between the minimum and maximum of the range.

This first winning number was 24, and Mary’s range was from 19-26.  (She received 8 points for commenting, subscribing, and writing a post.)

So, if she does not respond to the e-mail sent to her in 24 hours we will select another number by the same means.

You read that right, there’s only two more days to get in the Free Tomato Sawyer and Huckleberry Larry’s Big River Rescue DVD—but not here.

You have to go to this post!

On Monday, July 14th we’ll do the drawing and contact the winner.

In the meantime, make sure that if you’ve subscribed by e-mail that you confirmed your e-mail address, and that you let me know that you’ve wrote a post on your blog.

Thanks for everyone for making this first giveaway a lot of fun so far!

You heard me right.  I’m happy to announce the first VeggieTales Review contest, and the prize is your own copy of the new VeggieTales DVD, Tomato Sawyer and Huckleberry Larry!

Contest Rules:

• A comment in the comment section below gets you one point.
• Subscribing (and confirming) via RSS (see form at bottom of this post, after the jump) gets you two points.
• Writing a post linking to VeggieTales Review and this contest gets you five points.
• NEW! Use Twitter to promote this post, get 2 points!

The contest will run from today through next Monday, because it is on sale Tuesday. We’ll announce the winner Tuesday morning (so you don’t have to go and pick out your own copy). Should the winner not respond that day, we’ll have another drawing until someone responds via e-mail. So make sure PeterPlum[at]VeggieTalesReview[dot]com is whitelisted, and that your e-mail doesn’t think it’s spam!

Hopefully this will be a lot of fun, and you’ll get a new VeggieTales DVD out of it.  And look for more contests in the future!
