Help Me Test Rafflecopter! 50 Shutterfly Cards #Giveaway Closed
Posted by 
May 29, 2011 •
If you’ve been a follower and giveaway enterer of mine for awhile, then you know I’ve tried a few different methods of running my giveaways. I’m trying to find a way that strikes a good balance of ease for you to enter AND ease for me to host! I love testing out new things and am no stranger to trying new services (like Triberr!). Now, I’m one of the first blogs to alpha test Rafflecopter. I’m excited, but nervous. It’s new and different which can be a tad scary, y’know?
Rafflecopter is a new giveaway application designed with ease of use in mind. It’s trying to streamline the entering for you and the management for me. No more leaving 3 identical comments for you, easier weeding out duplicate/false entries for me! Alpha testing means it’s in the initial phases of being applied and used. It’s been worked on and developed but now it needs real use. As we provide feedback it will get tweaked. There may be issues along the way, but that’s part of the testing – to find and fix!
I’m hoping this will be helpful to both of us! Now… on to the giveaway!
Disclosure: I received a code for 50 Shutterfly cards for writing my spring post; however, I decided to give them away.
*Please note: This code must be used by August 1, 2011
Be sure to check the instructions for the blog comment entries to ensure you are answering the questions!
Happy winnings and don’t forget to check out our other giveaways!
**In the event something happens to the application entries, I will draw the winner from the two comment entries as described above.**

Rafflecopter is SO easy and quick! I love itwomenwwin
I’d use them for the birth of our baby this summer!
This way is easier than some. If we were able to submit these comments with the above form that would make it easier, rather than going back and forth between the comments section of the blog and clicking DONE on the above form. I do like how you have to do the mandatory entry before the others are clickable – that makes it very clear what needs to be done.
I would use them for my daughters’ first bday : )

If my comment would go away I think I would like it as my memory isn’t the greatest, sometimes I do one entry more than once
