Giveaway: 1800 Fans For KOAB = $18 For You

Yay!!!!

So, last night as I was at the airport for my flight to New Jersey (I’m here for KosherFest ’11), I checked into Facebook and saw that the Kosher on a Budget wall was dangerously close to 1800 “likes”.

I issued a little challenge: Do you think we can hit 1800 before I land??  Well guess what?

1800 (and counting)!!!!!

What a beautiful number for a kosher blogger to see!

To celebrate, I’m going to give away TWO $18 gift cards to Amazon.com to TWO lucky readers. (Amazon is in no way associated with nor does it endorse this giveaway. I’m just giving away gift cards to Amazon because I love them!)

To enter this giveaway , simply leave a comment on this post telling me how long you’ve been following KOAB on Facebook. If you’re not following KOAB, that’s okay – just tell me that! You don’t have to be a Facebook fan to enter this giveaway and there are no right or wrong answers 😉

The contest will be open until Thursday, November 10th at midnight and I’ll announce the winners (selected randomly of course) on Friday, the 11th.

One entry per reader, please!
