First let's look at the Jell-O Happy App. Like the Facebook Page, then click Go To Application. Once you've given your Facebook permissions, you are taken to the application.
A search / upload box comes up, and you can either upload a photo, or search for your picture. Or, do what I do, and type Monkey in the search box. (Thanks Jodi Stevens for the tip!)
Then click Find and it will locate the picture of the Monkey eating a banana. It will prompt you to SHARE that you found the monkey on your Facebook wall.
Once you've done that, you find out if you have won anything. A lot of swaggernauts are winning Jell-O T-shirts! Neato Cheeto!

Next let's look at OfficeMax's Elfmas Town.
This app includes a few games to play to earn "Rubber Bands" which you can turn in at "Santa's Workshop" for OfficeMax deals. Pretty neat, and the games are kinda fun, but my focus today is on the Holiday Grab Bag.
Once a day you can play the Holiday Grab Bag for a chance to win prizes such as TUL Rollerball Pens, gift cars, even a Vivitar digital camera. Just click the pile of gifts in the plaza of Elfmas Town.
Pick your lucky elf! The one you pick will run around behind that giant pile of packages and pull one out for you.
As you click, click, click the present, it gets larger and larger until it explodes!
If you are a winner, you will get a prize redemption screen. Fill out all your vitals ;-p so they can ship your prize, then see what you won!
A Pen! um... well cool, pen is better than a box full of AIR, right? :D Maybe tomorrow will be my day for a camera... I've seen them won!
On to REDBOOK!
I got a free 1 year subscription to REDBOOK magazine, thanks to a link posted by the ladies who run Freebies R Us on Facebook. I've discovered a ton of holiday giveaways you should go enter! First there's a sweepstakes for $250,000!!
Just go to win250k.redbookmag.com to enter. This first page you see tells you that by using this form, you are signing up for a 1 year subscription, with the first month as a free trial. Note the yellow box! You don't have to sign up to the free trial to enter, simly click the link in that area to reach the truely free entry form.
Once you have entered that, you are registered for the redbook.com website, which enables you to go enter other sweepstakes. The link for the other giveaways is http://www.redbookmag.com/freebies or redbookmag.com/online-sweepstakes/ .
The giveaway I've highlighted is the "Giveaway a Day" sweepstakes.
Each day they give away a different prize, but the same prizes are rotated throughout the weeks. You can enter each type of prize giveaway once a day. The Jane Marvel bags all count as different items so you can enter each of those once a day.
The rest of the giveaways on the main sweepstakes page are for items like Fragrance sets, or gift cards. There are a LOT of neat gift card giveaways! They range from $50 at Payless Shoes to $1000 at Harry & David gourmet gifts & food. My FAVORITE giveaway is a 1 year, 3 DVD at a time Netflix membership. /swoon!
I'd LOVE to win that one. Of course, my preference would be to win the $250,000 prize. Then I could have all the Netflix I want, and the home theatre system to really enjoy it! *laugh!*
Go give these a try, and GOOD LUCK SWAG FRIEND!
