*Closed* Happy FIFTH Birthday, Cha-Ching! Come Join the Party and Win FREE Stuff!

It’s Birthday Party Time!

I shared on Facebook last night that with all of the Easter excitement, I completely forgot to mention that this weekend was Cha-Ching on a Shoestring’s FIFTH Birthday!

Where has the time gone?  It seems like just yesterday that I announced to the world the birth of my little baby blog and now she’s practically all grown up.

It would be a shame to miss this opportunity for a Big Birthday Bash and you guys had some great ideas on how we should celebrate. I took your ideas and this is the result.

What is a birthday without a BIRTHDAY PARTY??  We’ll need pizza, entertainment and a delicious birthday dessert (of course).

I SO wish I could celebrate with each and every one of you who make this blog what it is  – could someone get on that and figure out a way to make that happen? 🙂  Until we figure that out, this is the best option I could come up with:

I’m sending a birthday party to a few lucky readers! Here’s how:

One reader will win a $25 Papa John’s gift card (or Domino’s if you prefer): 

One reader will win a $10 Redbox gift card for the Birthday Party Entertainment: 

And one reader will win this yummy  assortment of Mrs. Fields Cookies in a fun birthday tin:
