1000 Followers Giveaway: Featuring Vera Bradley!!!!

This giveaway is now closed, thank you to all my followers for their support. I wish I could send a little Vera to all of you! Congratulations to Nancy, comment #69, who said."I love Vera Bradley and I am one of your loyal followers. Thanks for the opportunity to win!"
Last week my number of followers through Google Friends Connect hit 1000!  How exciting to hit four numbers; it's been a wonderful two and half years or so of blogging.  I am so thankful for each and every one of you!  I love meeting new friends, sharing experiences, and reading all your comments.  Since you're all followers ☺ I'm sure you already know I'm a big fan of Vera Bradley, so a giveaway featuring one of my personal favorites seemed like the only way to celebrate!    
Giveaway!

I have a beautiful One for the Money Vera Bradley wallet in one of very favorite patterns ever, Baroque, for one of my followers!  Baroque is so much cuter than a basic black bag but neutral enough to be used every day with everything! I love this particular wallet because of it's kiss lock coin purse.  Kiss locks always feel ladylike and dainty to me:)  There's also a clear ID pocket on the outside, so handy for when you need to flash ID, since you don't have to open your wallet to do so.  Attached to the inner pocket is a key ring, a nice spot to attach all those little store loyalty cards.  The contrasting trim on the front is really pretty, retail value is $25.00.

The official description from Vera Bradley is:  This wallet definitely gets “two for the show” with the kisslock coin purse located right inside! Use it for coins, gloss or a small compact. Two more pockets hold everything else, from cards to cash.
 
To Enter:

This one is simple!  All you have to do is be a follower through Google Friends Connect of my blog, leave me a comment on this post so you'll be officially entered:)  That's the mandatory first entry!

If you also follow me on Twitter, Facebook, and/or Subscribe to my Feed via EMAIL give yourself another entry for each...leave a separate comment for each.

I'll pick a winner on the 31st and this giveaway is open to all my readers, worldwide.  (I realized after posting this that I had it open for just one week instead of two and have extended the giveaway period.)

    I just wanted to pop back in and tell you that I went past my Amherst calendar a few moments ago and the words "Vera Bradley" jumped out at me. I didn't realize that our local store The Mermaid's Tale here in Amherst sells Vera Bradley....how cool is that????
