Blog and WIN the new TOS Homespun Holidays E-Book!

1:12 AM, Oct. 22, 2008

This contest is now
CLOSED!

Do you enjoy the warm, comforting smells of holiday foods? Looking for fun hand-crafted gift ideas to share with friends this Christmas? Wouldn't it be wonderful to have new decorating ideas to share the Christmas spirit with family?

Then, the soon-to-be-released TOS Homespun Holidays E-Book is just the resource for you!.

It's over 80 pages of sumptuous recipes, crafty decorating tips, and lovely gift ideas. You'll want a copy to help plan your Thanksgiving and Christmas recipes, decorations, and gifts!

Guess what? You can win a copy! In fact, three lucky bloggers are going to win a copy.

(By the way, this is not even available for sale yet, but will be soon, for $12.95).

How do I enter the contest?

It's simple to enter the contest. Just follow these steps:

Copy and paste the text below (in the Fall Subscription Promo text section below) onto your blog.
Place this button on your sidebar. Either save a copy of it or link directly to it.
Make sure you link the "CLICK HERE TO SUBSCRIBE" text to the Schoolhouse Store url listed below.
Come back here to the Front Porch and let Tia know you blogged about the promo and have the button on your sidebar.\

How will the winners be selected?

On Saturday, November 1st at midnight EST, the contest will close.

We will then pick 3 lucky winners to receive a copy of Homespun Holidays.

Here's the graphic for your blog

Place this button on your sidebar and link it to this url:
http://www.theoldschoolhousestore.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=66_60&products_id=190

Use this url to get the button:

Fall Subscription Promo Text to Place on Your Blog

(Directions: Please copy the entire section below except for Tia's name and title. Please link to the Schoolhouse Store where indicated. Oh, and don't forget to link to the picture of Nancy's first horse! Thank you!)

Did you ever dream of getting a horse for Christmas? You can get a sneak peek of our Fall issue and see Nancy Carter's first horse! Oh, and she's not the only one sharing her childhood pictures. You'll see photos from the 50's through the 80's.

But, you'll need the Fall issue of The Old Schoolhouse Magazine to go on this walk down memory lane.

Plus, do you like to create holiday memories? The brand new TOS holiday E-Book can be yours, too. It's all about the fall and winter holidays - mainly Thanksgiving and Christmas. But it's not even for sale yet. This is your chance to get it first - for FREE ($12.45 value)!

Normally when a person subscribes, their subscription starts with the upcoming issue which can take a while. But, TOS thought about that when they planned their Fall Special.

If you subscribe now with their Fall Special, you'll get

Almost 50% off the cover price for 2 years
The current Fall issue as soon as it is ready
6 Bonus gifts
12 months of Teacher's Toolbox, which contains a FREE E-Book every month
PLUS, the new E-Book, Homespun Holidays for FREE!

This is over $250 worth of product for only $39!!
