A chance to win a Cobrahead® “Mini” and my book

June 22, 2017 By Carol Michel 70 Comments

Of course I was planning to host a giveaway of my book, Potted and Pruned: Living a Gardening Life, but not until I found the perfect tool to go with it.

And a few weeks ago, I found that tool. The Cobrahead@ “Mini” Weeder and Cultivator.

Let’s make this easy.

Just comment below before 8 pm EDT on Monday, June 26, 2017 and I’ll choose a winner by random drawing shortly thereafter.  Cobrahead® will send a “mini” weeder and cultivator to the winner, and I’ll send the winner a signed soft cover copy of my book.

As per usual, please be over 18 years old and we can only ship to a United States address.

Good luck and don’t forget the only way to win is to enter a comment below, preferably one that will lead me to your email address, or you can write out your email address in the comment with this format YourName at Mail dot Com.

And thank you, Cobrahead® for offering the perfect tool to go with my book!

Update June 26, 2017 — Our winner is lucky comment number 5!

Thank you all for entering. If you didn’t win and want to buy a signed copy of my book or a Cobrahead® “Mini” Weeder and Cultivator, follow the links above or on the sidebar to place an order.
