Free Jade Earrings
28 April 2008
This contest is now closed thanks to everyone who entered. A new contest starts on Monday.
I remember one week when I’d just had it with my job as a waitress at a self serve continental breakfast bar. (Yes that job is as bad as it sounds.) Suddenly, a customer came over to me & I thought “Here we go again, what is the problem going to be this time?” Instead they asked if I was ok. I couldn’t believe it. Someone was actually treating me like a human again. It made my day, my week even. My job was suddenly easier to handle This is one of the reasons I started random Acts of Bling, to hopefully bring unexpected joy to someone’s life. The winner can keep the jewelry or give it away. To enter the contest just read the rules & then leave a comment with a random act of kindness, or who you would give this jewelry to & why.
The prize this week are genuine lavender jade bead chandelier earrings in sterling silver. These earrings remind me of spring & are much more lavender than they look in the picture.
One entry per person per week.
Please don’t sell the jewelry, it’s to make whoever receives it feel special. Winner will be chosen by a random number generator at 6pm on Friday Mountain Time.
Contestants should be over 18 & live in the lower 48 states because I’ll be paying shipping. I won’t sell or abuse your mailing address. If you’ve already won a Random Act of Bling, you can win again, but please give the jewelry away at random.
If you want to link or stumble this post it would be appreciated but is not required.
Comment/trackback/link should be about a random act of kindness or who you would give this jewelry to & why.

My random act of kidness: On Friday I noticed that one of my classmates didn’t come to class, so today I gave her a copy of my notes from Friday.

What a beautiful pair of earrings! I would be tempted to keep these for myself but your story about being a waitress above really makes me want to go out and find a service person (waitress, clerk at Walmart, somebody) who is wearing earrings and give them this pair. I think that would make their day.

It’s official: I’m more than 50% gray. And now I’m 46. I didn’t do anything for my birthday because I fell down the stairs and broke my foot the day before. Now I’m ready to celebrate. I’d keep these pretty earrings as my birthday present because lavender is one of the only colors that goes with my gray hair! Thanks!

I would give these earrings to my best friend who has to go into surgery in 3 weeks and she can use this to make her feel better.
Thanks for the giveaway!

My mom has been having a tuff time rasing my little sister on her own. I would love to give these to her for no reason other than to make her day a bit easier

I’d carry these lovely earrings around in my purse and be on the lookout for that frustrated Mom with the screaming kid(s) to ‘bling’ her and make her day-or at least make her feel very surprised and special.
