THE CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED.  Please stay tuned for the next one.  Winners will be announced shortly!

The generous ladies at The Keeper have done it again!

Last April, I wrote about alternative menstrual products. From that post, I was in touch with the wonderful people at The Keeper, Inc., manufacturer (since 1987) of The Keeper reusable latex menstrual cup, and they have very generously offered to give a Keeper or Moon Cup* menstrual cup to the winner of our Giveaway Contest! I am so excited to be able to give you a chance to win a menstrual cup!

So, if you would like to stop using those messy disposable menstrual products, such as tampons and pads; and if you’d like to do your part to help save the environment, please enter our contest to win a Keeper. For a graphic representation of the number of tampons and pads the average woman uses in 1 month, 1 year, 10 years, and during her menstruating lifetime, please check this out. You’ll be shocked by what you see! So, please write and tell us WHY you want to try a Keeper; and convince us that you’re the woman who deserves to win our contest. We’re looking for the best stories and comments to give away our menstrual cups!

Submit your comment, up to 500 words, by midnight on August 31, 2010 on this post, or email your story to keepercontestATgmail.com.

*Some women may either be allergic to latex, or might just prefer silicone. Please note, there are also allergies to silicone! If this is the case, write and tell us why you want to win a Moon Cup, which is The Keeper, Inc.’s companion product. The Moon Cup is exactly the same as The Keeper – same size, same dimensions, etc. The only difference is the material it is made from. To learn more about both products, go to The Keeper’s website.

Dear FTC: I am in no way affiliated with The Keeper Company. I am just lucky that they love me enough to help give away some of their fabulous menstrual cups. I’m not getting paid or sponsored.

Congratulations! Contest Winners Announced!!

From The Keeper, Inc. (Keeper.com) and The Ultimate Money Blog (Ultimatemoneyblog.com)

Dear Contestants:

This time around, we had such a difficult time picking the winners that we made a one-time-only executive decision: This one time, EVERYONE who entered is a winner. Each of you gets a prize!!

So, each of you wins the menstrual cup of your choice: either a Keeper or a Moon Cup.

Why Is Everyone a WINNER this time?

Because, except for a very few of you, you all gave such WONDERFUL, persuasive reasons WHY you absolutely HAVE to HAVE a reusable menstrual cup!! We had trouble deciding which entries were winners. Finally we just gave up –

And GAVE IN!!

We are delighted that so many of you care about your bodies, about the world around you (the earth), and about being frugal. These are qualities we’ll ALL need to have — if we’re going to save ourselves and the earth in these difficult times.

WE HAVE A FEW FAVORS TO ASK OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU:

• If you have a Facebook account, please become a FAN of our FB Fan page. http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Keeper-Menstrual-Cup/196505434812

• Once you become a FAN, please become an ACTIVE FAN. Get your friends to “FAN” us, and get some interesting discussions going on the site!! We’ll participate too.

• If you don’t have a FB account, consider getting one so that you can participate on our fan page. We love hearing from you.

And last, but not least, once you’ve used your new Keeper (or Moon Cup) for awhile –

• We hope you’ll want to write a testimonial for us to include on our Testimonials Page, sharing your story with the whole world. (http://www.keeper.com/testimonials.html )

Thank you for ALL being such winners!

Thanks for your commitment to sensible menstruation!

We’re glad to have each and every one of you as new Keeper or Moon Cup users.

And thanks for SPREADING THE WORD!!

I will be sending an email to everyone! Thanks so much in advance for your patience.
