Today was the day for the announcement of the winner of the Sears Card giveaway that I titled Don’t Just Give a Gift, Grant a Wish. We collected over 350 responses to the contest here on There’s Something About Harry and overall the entire campaign had 9500+ entries across all of the blogs involved!
The video with the announcement is below, but I’ll warn you it is getting hit with lots of traffic and its a little difficult to watch as I write this post right now (3 hours after the video and drawing were created!).
I transcribed the results from the ustream show featuring the drawing. These transcripts were done by ear, (couldn’t see anything due to bandwidth or something) I’m looking for a more official write up from Izea, hopefully sooner rather than later.
There was a big gap in my transcription. I was actually trying to back up to confirm the details for the contest here. Unfortunately, instead of reversing that seemed to skip forward. I try to listen over again about 4 more times, but couldn’t get the video to load right. In the meantime, here’s what I have. I’ll work on getting better information over the next couple days!
Quick note to the winner here. They mentioned that the contest winner’s name was ‘Kim’. I had several comments from a Kim and Kimberly, but haven’t confirmed which person it actually is yet. As soon as I know, I will definitely let ‘Kim’ and everyone else know too!

Come to think of it, I think Karen215 was your winner. I KNOW they called her as one of the winners and by process of elimination I think that is your winner!

Thanks Ashley and no worries on the video. You have to let those evil ‘inter-tubes’ win every now and then otherwise they will really focus hard on beating you next time.
