CreepyQueen is planning a huge Halloween contest, and we're making up a big gift certificate/ halloween etsy gift basket. We are looking for donations, but we have a budget for this contest, so we're not asking for tons of stuff for free.

Here are the deets:

We're looking for Gift Certificate donations of a minimum of $5.00.

For Gift Certificate Donations of over $20.00, we will be offering a thank-you gift of 2 free advertising slots in out DIY FINDS section of the website,

And For Donations of $50.00 or more, we are offering partial $$$ reimbursement as well as the free advertising slots.

If your shop does not offer gift certificates, we are also looking for some halloween items to help bulk up the basket.

As well as sending gift certificates and gifts, we ask the participants send us boatloads of promotional material. Stickers, buttons, business cards, etc. Some of them will go in the basket, and the rest we will keep to give out with any packages we send out. Packages to giveaway winners, to include in future celeb baskets, etc.

We would like the gift certificates to be concrete, and not just a code. So either an image file that we can print out, or one you've created and mailed to us. It must have all of your gift certificate policies either printed on it, or stapled to it.

They can not have a 'minimum purchase' requirement, although it is alright if you are to donate a $5.00 certificate and not sell anything under that amount, for example.

If you would like to donate a halloween item, please get in contact with us and we can work out some form of reinbursement.

The contest will hopefully be ready to start the beginning of october, and throughout the whole month we will be purchasing ad space, and promoting it like crazy. Our last contest gained over 80 entries, and we hope to make this one more than twice the size.

But if anyone is interested they can get in contact with me via my CQ email, creepyqueen [at] live [dot] com.

ALSO- Shops who donate will still be eligible to enter!! If someone who donated a prize wins the basket, their donation will be randomly drawn randomly from the remaining entrants as a runner up prize!!

getting my donation ready to ship to you!
