Amazon Giveaway Test Run on Budget Balcony Living

Update:  I have received an email from Amazon. The giveaway has ended and the winner has been selected.  Congratulations to the winner!


Hi All,

I am aware that many writers, bloggers, and youtubers use Amazon Giveaways in order to advertise their books, advertise their items, or increase their audience. Some bloggers use the giveaway to thank their subscribers.

I have been considering using an Amazon Giveaway to thank my readers for awhile now. But I am concerned that I will have difficulty setting it up. People who know me are aware that I sometimes struggle with technology.

I want to set up occasional giveaways in order to give little thank yous to my readers.  Also, I write about things I really like or things that excite me. For this reason, I have wanted to find a way to share these items with others.  If I master the art of the giveaway, perhaps I will be able to regularly share some of the items I like so much.

Today is the day that I'm going to try to set up a giveaway as a small way to thank my readers and supporters.  I am choosing one of the wind chimes that I wrote about in my Neighbor-Friendly Budget Balcony Wind Chimes.

To enter this giveaway, you will need an Amazon account and a Twitter account. Go to my Twitter page and follow the directions in the giveaway tweet (which should only be to retweet the giveaway - provided I've set it up correctly). The giveaway will end on Nov. 11, 2017. Amazon will randomly choose one winner from those who have retweeted that giveaway link and Amazon will ship the item to the winner.

Should be easy-peasy. Right?

Good luck to everyone who enters! And thank you for bearing with me during this test run. Hopefully this will result in future giveaways.

By the way, there are "public" Amazon Giveaways happening daily HERE.  Everyone can enter those by following the directions in the individual giveaway links. I will not be making my giveaway "public" as my intent is to focus on my readers and supporters. However, if you like giveaways... be sure to check out that link!!!!
