Last night, as I was trying to get my daughter to bed (Daylight Savings Time is astonishingly wicked), I scrolled thru my phone’s Facebook app and noticed that KOAB was dangerously close to having 5,000 likes on Facebook.
Whoa.
5,000 is a pretty huge number. And hugely humbling.
I love my job. I love sharing ways to save money so we can live better on less. I love that I’m able to connect with all of you — and help you in whatever small ways to live more fruitfully (without multiplying your budget).
But I’m also keenly aware that KOAB would just be me talking to myself if it weren’t for all of YOU – my amazing, incredible, wonderful readers.
I so appreciate your comments, your likes, your tweets – and most of all, that you share KOAB with your friends. That endorsement means so much to me.
As a small way of saying thank you — especially for the 5,000+ of you who have liked Kosher on a Budget on Facebook — I am giving away a $50 e-giftcard to Amazon.
One lucky reader will get $50 to spend on whatever their heart desires — since you can find (virtually) anything at Amazon.
To enter this giveaway, just leave a comment on this post.
The giveaway will be open until 11:59 p.m. EST and I’ll pick a winner randomly on Sunday morning. The winner will have 48 hours to respond to your email from me. (Make sure you add kosheronabudget@gmail to your list of approved addresses, otherwise it’ll go to spam and you might miss out :() As soon as I hear back from you, I’ll send you your $50 gift card and you can have at it!
This giveaway is not comped in any way. It’s just my small way of saying THANKS!
Congrats. I love checking out your posts.
I look forward to the daily emails. Thanks.
Thank you Maya for all you do for us!

I love your emails about saving money, expecially now before Pesach. There are so many money saving tips out there that many do not know about. It is great that you put them all together for us. We really appreciate it! Keep up the good work!
So happy to hear the news! I love when I see an email from you in my inbox, makes me smile. Now, I have spent a few dollars or so on things that I probably should not have, but they were bargains so it is okay, right? 🙂
Thanks for great ways to save!
