O.K., so a while back I told you all about how BuenoBaby had been nominated as one of Babble's 2009 Top Mommy Bloggers. I said it would make me feel all velvety inside if you'd go over to Babble.com and vote for BuenoBaby. Well, you guys voted so many times that my innards turned all soft and silky and almost slid out of my orifices. So, I thought the whole Babble thing was behind us. But then this email landed in my inbox this morning:
Hello BuenoBaby,
Babble would love to share a ONE-DAY exclusive offer with you and your followers:
Today only [March 31, 2010], we would like to invite you and your readers to enter Babble's brand new The Impossibly Cute Contest for FREE!
Moms everywhere submit their favorite photos, and each month, we pick a cutest kid [who receives a $1,000 prize] and, at the end, the grand prize winner will receive $25,000!
From April 1, entrants will be charged a fee to enter, but because you are one of Babble's favorite mommy bloggers, we are sharing our special ONE-DAY only offer with you and your followers.
It's a lot of fun to browse all the cute photos that have been entered. So have a look and enter your kids' pics!
And, drop me a line to let us know what's new on your blog - I love getting updates.
Best,
Emily
I was like, well my kid isn't all that ugly, so why not try it out? The whole thing is though, I won't fill out field after field of of online forms. You mean I have a shot at winning $25,000? You say I have to input my birth date, my cat's weight and complete a calculus problem. Ew, sorry that would be a big...ol...deal...killer. But, the Impossibly Cute Contest wasn't like that at all. So, I entered this photo of Heidi:

And I haven't won the $25,000 grand prize yet, or a life-time supply of Doritos. BUT! But, I did get a coupon code for $10 off my purchase at Zulily.com. I'd never head of this site before today, but I checked it out and will probably go back and cash in on my ten bucks off offer.
See guys, it's doesn't matter if you win or lose [unless the idea of rolling around naked in twenty-five thousand dollar bills appeals to you], everybody walks away with a coupon code.
