In the comments section of this post (and you’re welcome to post your entry on your blog if you wish, but it’s not required as long as you’ve posted it here) finish this statement: “If I had a million dollars…”
Sure, we don’t have a million, but we’ve got quite a bit here to give away! $3,364.33 just in cash and Amazon Gift Certificates (and another couple bucks in non-American money with a bonus NFL Pro Bowl Ballot that we have no idea the monetary value of) to be exact!
So there you have it. Be funny, silly, serious, it doesn’t matter! Just finish that statement in the comments section of this post and you’re entered to win one of the above prizes.
Rules: One entry per person. If you have already won something from one of our other giveaways, you are not eligible to win. Winning one of the prizes listed above will prevent you from being able to win any other prizes for the duration of the giveaway.
Winners are chosen at random using a random number generator. You may not “pick” the prize you want, we will award them in the order that we receive the random winners.
This contest begins at 9am on Friday, October 5, EST (New York, USA) and ends on Saturday, October 6 at 9am EST (Again, New York, USA). We will close comments at that time.
PS: We are about to turn the ProBlogger Birthday Bash into OVERDRIVE! Up til this point we’ve been giving prizes away every 24 hours – but in a few hours we’re going to accelerate the pace a little and the giveaways will start coming every 8 hours (with a few more 24 hour ones thrown in) until the end of the weekend!

Now if I am lucky enough to win it why not take my chance blow it up all on a world tour in the most expensive of restaurants and hotels.. chances are I’d pretty much win it again.. even if i don’t i ll get famous as the person who blew his million dollars without spending even a a buck on something worthwhile, and a famous guy needs no excuse to make another million bucks.. I’d be on Oprah!!!
having said that, if i earned my million dollars, i see no reason why i shouldn’t be able to do it yet again. so I’d still go on a world tour, still spend on the most exotic and expensive of places and yeah become famous again… and earn another million dollars because am famous.. and since i know how to earn a million bucks anyway I’d earn it again and am caught in a soup now because i have to think of what i would do ..
