GIVEAWAY: $60 gift certificate for CSN Stores!

HEY 2.5 (American and Canadian) READERS! CSN has generously offered to sponsor another giveaway for you lucky bugs, this time for a $60 gift certificate you can use at any of their 200+ websites.

For the uninitiated, CSN Stores is a network of stores so varied it can satisfy all your needs for bathroom vanities (! (did someone say mirror?)), chaise lounges, waterbeds, and children's swing sets at one convenient online location. That's right! If you ever need to redo your bathroom, sitting room, bedroom, and backyard, CSN's got you covered. Or, if you're like me, if you ever feel compelled to buy cute crazy shoes...

Above, the Gala in Silver, $59.95, free shipping!

Or maybe something more practical, like some basic pumps...

Above, the Napoli in Cemento Silver, by Franco Sarto, $67.95, aka $7.95 if you win, and free shipping!

Or flat sandals...

Above, Boardwalk, $49.00 with free shipping

Or vegan sneakers (responsibility is sexy)...

Above, Ethletic Sneaker by Autonomie Project, $57.00 and free shipping!

Or... maybe you're like me and, in your completely sober clumsiness, shattered one-fifth of your apartment's dinnerware while washing them and could use some new dishes and mugs decorated with illustrations from childhood memories:

Above, Wedgwood Original Peter Rabbit Mug, $14.00 - most sadly, currently out of stock. I LOVE Peter Rabbit!

...Or if you'd like to win a $60 gift certificate to CSN for any other reason, leave a comment on this post at or before 11:59 PM (PST) of June 16, 2010 with the following:

1. an email address (so I can contact you if you win!)
2. something that you are grateful for from the past three days
3. a description of a) your favorite pair of shoes OR b) a fond childhood memory (if they're the same, that's okay too)

From the entry pool, I'll choose 25% of you based on your answers, and from that quarter-pool, I'll select the winner using a random number generator. There will be a post soon after the 16th of June announcing the winner, who will also be notified by email. So...

Ready? Set... COMMENT!
