This week I have a give-a-way, a special offer from Joey's Outback and a contest with The Museum of Discovery & Science!!!
It's time for a Give-Away Contest for the Hot Momma's Members!! I figured in order to plan and organize an effective week, every Mom needs a GREAT agenda/organizer/calender. So, that is the give-away this next week, Sandra Boynton's 17 Month "Mom's Family Desk Planner".
"Ideal size to slip into your bag, and will help keep the whole family on track for a full 17 months. This organizer gives a week-at-a-glance grids with 2 columns: one for Mom's schedule and one for the family's. In the back of the planner are perforated grocery and to-do lists, plus space for important phone numbers. The front and back covers have handy storage pockets, and 150 full-color stickers are bound into the planner."
To enter the contest, you only need to do 2 things:
1.) Become a Hot Momma's Member and "Join This Site" in the left column. (You can also head over to the Hot Momma's Facebook Page and become a Member of that group).
2.) Comment on the bottom of this post that you have become a member and then tell all of us what your favorite South Florida activity/place is for your family.
THAT'S IT!
I will draw a name on October 8 and post the winners names on this site and the Facebook Page- so keep your eye out!
Museum of Discovery and Science is having a contest for Hot Momma's Members:
