DIY Announces Blog Cabin Winner!

Monday October 29, 2007
DIY has announced that the winner of the 2007 Blog Cabin Sweepstakes is Joyce Bennett, a grandmother who worked at the First Tennessee Bank before retiring. Joyce has said that she is looking forward to spending Christmas at the beautiful Smoky Mountain retreat with her three children and two grandchildren. To watch a video of Joyce and her family viewing their Blog Cabin for the first time, visit the DIY Network website. 3.2 million entries were submitted to this big sweepstakes.

The good news for those of us who didn't win is that DIY is already working on a Blog Cabin for 2008. If you aren't familiar with the concept, DIY builds a deluxe, environmentally-friendly log cabin, and asks bloggers to weigh in with opinions on issues ranging from how to decorate the inside to the official name of the cabin. For more information about the 2008 Blog Cabin, check on the Blog Cabin Blogs frequently... and look forward to another great sweepstake coming up next year! In the meantime, check out the BIG Daily Sweepstakes List for more high-value prizes to win.

I’m starting to wonder if the Scripps Network sweepstakes are rigged. Am I the only one who thinks it’s an amazing coincidence that the winner of the blog cabin lives less than 50 miles away from the cabin and Scripps Network Headquarters? Just a thought.

Yup, I was thinking the same thing.
