Valentine’s day – What about the single people?

Valentine’s Day can sometimes be depressing for single people. Some may pine for a past relationship, while others  wish they could find a special someone, just so they don’t have to spend V’Day alone…again.

What about the single people? Where is their “special day”?…and Birthdays don’t count, everyone has those!

That is why; I am now calling February 15th, ‘Singles day’.

February 15 is the day that single people can go out again without being subjected to -at least until the next Valentine’s day- the overly ‘loved-up‘ couples that think Valentine’s day means that they have to walk around all day attached to each other… and constantly kiss, nuzzle and/or hug each other. We get it! You are in love.

It is also a day where you can buy a ‘Valentine’s Day’ gift of flowers-cheap roses, heart shaped candy, chocolates etc. for yourself without paying the jacked up prices, that are there on and before February 14.

So, on February 15, all you single gals  out there go on and treat yourself. Go see a chick flick at Village Gold Class, go to a day spa ,  or buy those shoes you have been eying off since January, but couldn’t afford after all the money you spent on Christmas presents.

You deserve it! Just because you don’t have a man, doesn’t mean you are any less fabulous!

WIN: A $50 voucher from brandsExclusive (Closed)

 

On behalf of brandsExclusive, I am giving one lucky a reader a $50 voucher for brandsExclusive.com.au. If you would like to be in the running to win this awesome prize, keep reading below.

If you have never heard of brandsExclusive before, you probably have no idea what they are about or what they sell. BrandsExclusive is an Australian, exclusive-invite only-online store, that sells many things from Fashion, footwear and accessories to Cook books and homewares. Their members get to shop from the comfort of their home, for items from well known brands (sometimes even designer brands) at prices that are much lower than their recommended retail price- sometimes even up to 70% off!

It’s kinda funny how things work sometimes, I was actually a member of brandsExclusive prior to being approached to hold this competition! I have made a few orders from their site too, so I was more than happy to hold this competition for them…anyway, the rules of the competition.

1. You must be an permanent resident of Australia

2. You must be 18 years or older to enter

3. In 25 words or less tell me what you would wear to a New Years Eve party? put your answer in a comment below this post, including your full name. (or first name and initial at least, if you prefer not to display your full name)

The best answer will be chosen based on creativity and originality.

Entries will close on January 15 Extended to January 31st, 2012 at 12am AEST (Sydney time) and the winner will be announced on my blog and Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/CottonCandyDiva1 on the 2nd February, 2012.

As I have mentioned earlier, brandsExclusive is an invite only site…however, as I am already a member I am able to ‘invite’ you to join. Just click on the banner below to sign up! I believe in full disclosure, so I will tell you that I will receive $10 for everyone who signs up via my link *after their first purchase. If you do decide to join up (membership is Free and is obligation free) you will also receive a $10 voucher (after anyone you invite) signs up and makes their first purchase!

 

Good luck!
