We have 32 entries in the $1,000 giveaway contest and 8 days left. Those are pretty good odds for winning $1,000!

1. It’s $200 away from winning an Apple iMac.
   
2. It’s like winning $400 cash and an Apple Mac Mini.
   
3. It’s like winning $600 cash and an Apple iPhone.
   
4. It’s like winning $700 cash and an Apple iPod Touch or an AppleTV.

What are you waiting for?

You have 8 days to enter the $1,000 giveaway! The odds are incredible – only 32 entries to date! Entering the giveaway is simple – you can do a single post that recognizes our 10 sponsors, or you can do a post for each sponsor and get 10 entries!

Not quite the blowout that I had envisioned, but I really am surprised at how slow the $1,000 cash giveaway has taken off. We currently have 1 blog, Blog Paradise, who has submitted their entry into the giveaway! Blog Paradise has written a single perfect post that could get them $1,000!

Ten Days Left!

That means when you submit your post, you’ve pushed the odds to 50%! Write a post for each of the sponsors and you’ve got over a 90% chance of winning. When is the last time that you made $1,000 for writing a blog post? Even John Chow doesn’t get that much!
