Fun, I'm not sure what I'd do with 9 more kindles though, lol. I could use 2 or 3.
I definitely would like to win the Hi-def package.
If I won the Yellowstone Photo Expedition I wonder if they'd give me cash in lieu of the plane tickets?

"Authors get the most publicity at launch and need to strike while the iron is hot. If readers can't get their preferred format at that moment, they may buy a different book or just not buy a book at all." - An Amazon spokesman.
“It doesn’t matter how good or bad the product is, the fact is that people don’t read anymore. 40% percent of the people in the U.S. read one book or less last year. The whole conception is flawed at the top because people don’t read anymore.” - S. Jobs

LOL yeah 10 Kindles seemed excessive, but maybe it's just to give away as gifts? (Because then you are encouraging your friends to purchase Kindle books, which of course is good for Amazon.) I entered for this week (yes I would love to go to the New Moon premiere  ) but I've got my eye on a couple other weeks too... Kristan |

I think anything other than the Twilight, Jonas Bros. or the Disney thing, would be wonderful!

Thanks for the heads up. Not a problem to add to my wish list. Like Ann, I probably add something daily.

Lol. Those dots lead me to believe you are not that enthusiastic. But surely I must be misinterpreting. WHO wouldn't LOVE to meet the JONAS BROTHERS?!

I have to keep remembering NOT to accept the entry offer when updating my Wish List. I would die if I used up luck winning this week as opposed to another week. If I won, I don't even know anyone to give this week's prize to. |
