Try Your Luck Thursday Nov 19

Another Thursday brings with it more opportunities to win some free stuff! I'm also curious if any Hiffers have actually won anything from these posts yet. Fingers crossed we have a few in our midst before the calendar changes over to 2016!

3 $1,000 Macy's gift cards from Avacados – I'm not sure how a fruit is giving away Macy's gift cards, but okay. You'll need a Facebook or Twitter account to enter this one, but the benefit is you can get up to 20 entries. Everybody gets 1 entry just for “joining,” so I hooked up my dummy Facebook account and called it a day. (Nov 26, m)
