And, just to sweeten the deal, giving could turn into receiving here at Surrenders (wait, did that sound vaguely dirty? If not, it should have). Remember when I said to “save your donation confirmations” if/when you donate? Well, finally, here is where that begins to makes sense. I have 10 (yes, TEN) free copies of “The L Word: Season Five” complete DVD box sets to give away. So if you have already donated or donate today, send me a copy of your confirmation email and I will enter you in the contest.
“The L Word returns to DVD with the complete fifth season on Oct. 28th in a collectible 4-disc set. DVD includes all 12 dramatic and deliciously provocative fifth season episodes from Showtime's successful long-running series featuring all the beauty, chaos and complexities of a group of women who inhabit Los Angeles' lesbian community plus behind-the-scenes special features.”
Now, in the interest of fairness and empty bank accounts, if you haven't donated you can still enter by putting your email address in the comments below. However, people who donate can (and should) also enter their email below for a second entry into the giveaway. Basically, if you've donated you can enter twice and therefore increase your chances of taking home Bette, Tina, Alice, Shane, Jenny & company.
In case you've forgotten what you're playing for in this contest, here is a quick refresher on the hotness that was TLW Season Five. (Warning: They get hotter the lower you scroll. Ahem.)
The contest is open to everyone (foreign and domestic), but winners outside of the United States and Canada will need to pay for shipping themselves (my apologies, but alas I'm Ms. Snarker, not Ms. Rockerfeller). I'll accept entries until Friday, Oct. 31. And, once again, my handy-dandy random number generator will pick the lucky winners.
Thank you so much for all of your support of 8 Against 8. If you can, please consider donating. And remember vote No on Prop. 8, California (and No on Prop. 2, Florida; No on Prop. 102, Arizona; No on Question #1, Connecticut and No on Act 1, Arkansas).
p.s. Each donation will get you an extra entry so go crazy, ladies and discerning gentlemen. Good Cause + Free Stuff + Lesbian Sex = Best. Giveaway. Ever.
UPDATE: Thanks for entering. Entries are now closed. The winners will be announced
I'm a little slow, so clarification please. I think in the last post you said that the top eight donators got the DVDs - top eight total or top eight in these few days? I really can't give much, to be honest, though I'd like to. It's hard enough just getting food on the table.
ReplyDeleteThat was a different blog. Grace the Spot, I believe.

Ms Snarker did you see that Apple have come out (no pun intended) in support of vote no on 8? They have a lovely article on their website about why they approve of gay marriage and donated $100,000. Makes me want to hug my Mac closer lol.
ReplyDeleteI'm sending all good vibes to the
ReplyDeleteNo on 8 fundraiser. I have sent it to all my friends in the US.

I've already donated a lot to national political campaigns, so here's my shot: jesturges@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteWe (me and my Hawaiian girlfriend) already donated, but what the hell... we NEED a resounding NO on *, so that I, as South African, can enjoy the same rights as a straight foreigner marrying a US citizen, just as my Hawaiian is currently enjoying being legally married to me, here in South Africa.
