The Beanbag Saga and Giveaway

Posted on June 5, 2012 at 7:30 AM

 How have you been?



This week, Mom decided to participate in the garage sale that our community holds every year.  It took her three days to haul stuff up from the basement.    It was exhausting watching her work!  The pile was mostly boring household stuff, but then, we saw it.  The MOST AWESOME ITEM OF ALL TIME!  The beanbag chair!



What was this crazy talk?  SELLING the beanbag chair??  WHO would love it the way we do? 



It didn't seem like Mom was going to be persuaded.  We tried to disguise it...





..but finally had to pull out the big guns:  A RAIN DANCE! 



Guess what? 



It didn't just rain, it POURED.    And poured and poured and poured.   Only two people came to the garage sale and they didn't even glance at our beloved chair!    Mom was saying things like  and but we didn't care. 



We will love this baby forever! 



We think your humans should get you a beanbag chair too! 


Now then!  It's time for the results of our last giveaway contest of Fromm food, courtesy of the wonderful Mr. Chewy The winner, picked at random, is...



Congrats to Bchonmama!   Please contact us with the email address you'd like us to pass on to Mr. Chewy!


And now for this week's...




This week we're giving away a funky chicken dog toy! 



And!!  A 4-ounce bag of all-natural duck jerky!

Willow is so happy you got to keep your beanbag chair! She would love to win the chicken stuffie & duck jerky. She's promised if she wins that she'll leave the chicken alone so that her baby brother (or maybe nephew) can play with it when he gets here.

The beanbag chair is so cute! And it looks pretty comfy too! I better get one for my dog Polly... but she's so small she may get lost inside! :-)

I am so happy that it rained and you got to keep your bean bag chair. I am surprised she didn't fall for you guys disguising it as your friend, Henry -- I believed it. I think I will go check my basement to see if there is a bean bag chair lurking down there somewhere :-)

These guys are so darn CUUTTTEEEE!!! Every time it amazes me to see how they snuggle together. Love how he's snoozing on his back! LOL

So do they really LOVE the bag, or are they just posing for Mom? :)

And do a rain dance down here, fellas. We need pouring rain too! :)

So glad that you saved the Beanbag. It looks like it is Perfect to snuggle up in on a Cold Winters Night.
I'm sure if anyone even looked at it you would have looked at them with those Sad Golden Eyes and they would have gone "awwww.... how can we take away their Beanbag" . Cool Dudes ... that's 1 for the Boys and 0 for the Humans !!!

That is one awesome Beanbag chair! Sierra would love to win the funky-chicken toy and jerky treats. Sierra also thinks it amazing that you can put on indian headbands and shout Ah-Wawa-Wawa-Woop-Wawa-Woop whenever you wish it to Rain! amazing!! Hope you get to sleep on that cool beanbag chair for a long time to come!

@Dominika--I sold nothing because it rained! LOL But normally you would put out unwanted items, like kid toys, clothes, household things, etc. You place an ad in the paper and people come look and hopefully buy. It's not usually held IN your garage, but on the front lawn. :)

We are glad the beanbag got to stay where it belongs. Poor mom had to work so hard for nothing. Better luck next time minus the beanbag chair.

Mom said the bean bag chair is a "blast from her past" She had one when she was a kid and she's old!! Augie and Ti sure look comfortable...we want one too! Kiva, Claire & Sandy

P.S. Moms says we already have enough stuff so if we win we would like to donate the prize to a Rescue or Shelter dog that doesn't have toys...
