Giveaway for the 2022 Tolkien Blog Party


It's giveaway time!!!

Six prizes this year, one each for six winners.  They are as follows:


Prize 1: The Lord of the Rings: Journey to Mordor game.  Brand-new, unopened.  The box says it's for 2 to 4 players, ages 8 to adult, and takes at least 30 minutes to play.  It involves rolling dice to race Nazgul and Orcs while taking the One Ring to Mount Doom.


Prize 2: A sheet of six Tolkien stickers.  I bought this from the Etsy shop Lucy in the Sky.


Prizes 3 and 4: A set of four LOTR book plates featuring Gandalf, Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas.  I bought these from A Fine Quotation, and they're not available anymore, so the two winners who get one set each of these will be lucky indeed!


Prize 5: The Battles of Tolkien by David Day.  This is a used copy of a really fun book.  It's in very nice condition except for a bit of sticker residue in the top right corner, which you can see below:


That residue shouldn't be too hard to remove, I just haven't had time to take care of it.


Prize 6: The Lord of the Rings Coloring Book.  This is a fun collection of illustrations, ready for you to color!  I do NOT know why they have Mjolnir on the cover, though.  I didn't notice that when I bought it, or I probably would have chosen a different coloring book.  Still, the pictures inside are very nice, as you can see:



I purchased all of these prizes myself, for the purpose of this giveaway.  This is not affiliated with any person or business besides myself.  Must be 18 or older to enter, or have parent's permission to provide me with a mailing address to send the prize to.  No purchase necessary.  Void where prohibited.

This giveaway is open worldwide.   

The main way to gain entries is to participate in the party by contributing a post, such as your answers to the official tag or another Tolkien-related post.  Once you've written your post, be sure to add its link to the Mister Linky widget at the bottom of my kick-off post (which is also where you'll find the tag questions).  

But, that isn't required!  You can also earn entries by doing other things like playing party games (which will start tomorrow) and telling me your prize choices.  And you can even get an entry just for being interested.

I do my best to match winners with their choice of prizes, but that doesn't always work out -- that's why I ask for your top three choices. However, I cannot guarantee that you will win something you want/request.

Also, please be aware that mail delivery is still a little wonky. I will ship all prizes via the USPS, and they do not ship to every country right now, so if you are one of my international friends, please check this official list to make sure your country is still receiving mail sent via the USPS.

This giveaway runs through 11:59pm EST on Friday, September 23. I will draw the winners on Saturday, September 24 and post the names of the winners on this blog, as well a notify them by email.

PLEASE make sure your information for the giveaway widget includes your current email address so that if you win a prize, you'll get the email informing you that you won! If you don't reply to my email by Saturday, October 1, I will choose another winner and award the prize to them instead.

    1. Charlotte/MotherOwl -- if you've used a Rafflecopter widget to enter a giveaway in the past, using that same browser window, it's probably just remembering you. It would ask you for an email address if it didn't have one stored, and wouldn't let you submit entries without it.

      If you click on the top right corner of the widget, the three parallel lines, it'll drop down a little thing, and if it says something like, "Hi, Charlotte!" then you know for sure it's stored your info.

    2. It does! And tells me my e-mail adress. Thanks!
      Btw. refreshing this page makes the image of Gandalf say: "One giveaway, shaken, not stirred!" Thanks for the laugh!
