Giveaway At The Hut!

Most of you know that when I moved to Georgia, my living space was about cut in half. I've had to become very creative in learning to fit all my crap stuff in my new space and the biggest problem is where to put all my kitchen goodies. I used the linen closet to store my big appliances and over-sized pots. This left me with finding somewhere to put my bed linens and tablecloths. I bought some of those underbed storage units, but honestly, they are a pain to use. I had decided I needed to check into one of those platform beds with drawers and lo, and behold, I got an email from CSN Stores.

I know we've all fallen in love with their huge variety of online stores and they've sponsored so many fabulous giveaways making them ACES with my blogging friends. We love giveaways! Add to that the fact that they have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and you have a win-win situation. To make this even better, most items have free shipping and especially with furniture, this is a big plus. Free shipping and delivered right to my home — very cool! Choose one that ships "White Glove" and they'll even carry it inside and set it up — exceptionally cool!

I'm really loving this platform bed from the Paula Deen Steel Magnolia Collection, who knew she had a furniture line? This particular bed doesn't have underbed storage, but out of the 320 they offer, there are 93 that do! 

Now the lovely folks at CSN Stores have listed me as a preferred blogger and have ask if I would like to receive a product to review or offer my readers another giveaway. Of course, I chose to have another GIVEAWAY! Ya'll know I'm all about the great outdoors, especially when it includes sand, sun and surf, so I chose something for you that is FABULOUS! How do I know it's fab? Because I already own one of my very own! So, I'm going to give this product a review, as well as, give one to one of you.

I posted a photo of my beach chair last summer on Indian Rocks Beach… 

and again recently when I visited Jekyll Island for a picnic at Driftwood Beach.

I LOVE this chair! I've owned many, many beach chairs over the years, but this is my absolute favorite by far. The others usually lasted about a year before they showed signs of rust, wouldn't open properly, or literally fell apart. Not this beauty by Picnic Time. I've had it for about four years now and it still looks new. The color has not faded, it opens with a breeze, it's lightweight and easy to carry with the included (detachable) shoulder strap. I know I have years of use left in this well-constructed chair. The extra-wide seat gives me plenty of room and the arms are padded — comfy!

I store my chair in my car, because you just never know when the beach will call my name. (Pardon the sand, I just returned from the beach.)

Plus, I love all the side pockets!

I keep sunscreen in the first pocket, so I'm never caught without protection (I don't do cell phones, but you can keep yours in this pocket if you wish). The second pocket holds a couple of power bars and the bottom pocket has a bag for trash left by those inconsiderate people who spoil my beaches. There's also plenty of room for whatever little goodies I may need on a particular day, usually my camera and my car keys. The pocket on the right holds my eco-friendly water bottle (no plastic, please).

Now what do you need to do to win your own Picnic Time Sports Chair?

Well, I want to give you lots chances, so do as many or as few as you like. I'm using the number system, so each chance must be on a separate comment to be counted individually.

1. Stop by CSN Stores Platform Beds and then leave me a comment telling me which one is your favorite (other than the Steel Magnolia from Paula Deen) This is a great way to show CSN Stores how much we appreciate them.
2. Leave me another comment if you are already a follower or a new follower.
3. Leave another comment and tell me which color you would choose — Navy Blue or Purple are in-stock now. Red will be available on July 1st. Hunter Green or Black is expected to be available on August 5th, so choose accordingly.
4. Blog about this giveaway or post the button in your sidebar for yet another chance to win!

To celebrate Summer Solstice… 

I'm accepting entries for this giveaway until midnight PST, Monday, June 21st. This giveaway is open to U.S. and Canadian residents only, since that is where CSN Stores ships to. No anonymous comments will be accepted and if you don't have a way for me to contact you through your blog or if you don't have a blog, be sure to leave me your email address so I can contact you if you are the lucky winner.
