{Closed} The Final Results of the Video Contest (And $50 in Amazon Gift Codes Giveaway!)

So…have you all been wondering what the final result of my NOT-Extreme Couponing Video contest was?

Here’s the scoop:

The contest ended last Wednesday, and I went to bed with complete confidence that second place was mine for the taking.  I had a strong lead and I slept quite well.

Then I checked the voting on Thursday morning.  Somehow at the last minute, the fourth place contestant had brought in hundreds of votes.

She beat me by 13 votes.

I will be honest.  I licked my wounds for a while.  I mean…13 measly votes?  If only I had stayed up until the bitter end.  I know you guys would have helped keep me strong at second!

But then I realized something: Third place isn’t so bad.  Right?  In the end, I still won a $100 Amazon gift card thanks to SO many of you that voted, posted on your Facebook wall, tweeted, and shared with your friends and family.

THANK YOU!

In fact, I feel so strongly that I want to thank you all that I’ve decided that I want to share my prize with you.  Soooo….
