Today’s the Last Day if You Want My Book!!

UPDATE: Thank you to all who entered – Kassy at Sparing Change was picked as the winner and you can read her entry here.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you haven’t heard yet, I want to give my copy of “The Millionaire Next Door” to someone who really wants to read it and today is the deadline!!

There’s no catch, except I’d like you to give it away to someone else when you are done reading it. Each person is invited to sign the book their own way as I will do. I’ll pay for the media mail shipping so only US residents please.

To enter, all you need to do is write a very brief explanation of why you would like to read the book. I’m only looking for three or four sentences, so no novels here. Please submit your entries to bloggingawaydebt [at] yahoo [dot] com by 11:59 ET TODAY. I will announce a winner on Monday July 3, 2006 which is the day I am hosting the Carnival of Debt Reduction.

I’d also like to include some of the entries on my blog so if that is okay with you, please grant me permission to post it as well as your name or nickname (if you’d like) and blog address (if applicable). If you do not grant permission, I will assume that you do not want your entry posted. And please, just add one sentence saying that you will give the book away when you are done reading it. You can give it away any way you like, but I would just like your word that you will give it away and ask that that person gives it away, and so on. I may be old-fashioned, but I still value someone’s word and hope that it will remain true.

Recap:

1.) Three or four sentences on why you would like the book.

2.) A sentence stating that you would give away the book to another person.

3.) Your name or nickname and/or blog name if you’d like your entry posted on my blog. You can also choose to have it posted anonymously, but please state that it is okay for me to post your entry.

4.) Email it to bloggingawaydebt [at] yahoo [dot] com.

Today is the last day!!
