Lunch Meet: First Annual Blogger Meet and Greet!

Kind of, I just  liked the pun.  More like a lunner (lunch/dinner) meet.  We’ll be in Minnesota on Tuesday, December 20th and it has become tradition to get together with my blog BFF Jen to do some shopping.  Over the summer, we shopped at Ikea and worked on some projects at her abode.  Last Christmas, we also went to Ikea, then Goodwill and HomeGoods.  This time, we thought it would be fun to invite our lovely readers to join us.

Wanna know more?  Good!  Jen and I thought it would be fun to meet at Goodwill, specifically the Roseville location {1627 County Road B}, where we can meet and greet while discussing what to buy (or not buy) at thrift stores.   If that’s a dud, we’ll head over to HarMar mall for good old fashioned HomeGoods shopping.

We know this is short notice, but we’d love to meet you.  Because I’m in a goofy mood, I thought it would be fun to break down the details like a giveaway.

The Goods: Meeting two of your most favorite bloggers ever.

To Enter: Show up at Goodwill and get ready to talk.

Meet Up Starts: Tuesday, December 20th at 5:00 pm at the Roseville Goodwill on County Road B off Snelling Avenue.

Number of Winners: Everyone!

Includes: Any readers in the Minnesota/Wisconsin vicinity.  If you live further away, you’re still invited and you’d earn extra points for each mile you’ve traveled.  Points are not redeemable for anything but advice.

Other Info: We’re open to other meet up suggestions, too.  So, if you’ve got an idea, leave it in your comment.  If you arrive somewhere around 5, look for Jen and myself.

But when we get excited we look something like this:

So, who’s in?
P.S.  We’ll be back this afternoon with a short notice gift guide.  Do you see a theme?  This season has gone too fast and we’re desperately trying to catch up.

  1. So fun! I’m a Canadian blogger so I am attending some fun Canadian meet and greets & conferences in the new year, but I will be in Duluth, MN over winter break (but not until after your meetup) which is much closer than where I normally am, so I just missed ya gals. Hope your day goes well!!

    Hope it goes well and I wish I could be there. Makes me miss my home state.

    Hope you ladies have fun.

  4. I’m not that far away from the meet up (an hour and 20 min.) but that night doesn’t work. Boo. There are a few of us putting together a MN meetup in Minneapolis for Feb. :)

    • Hey Corie! I’m so excited! I’m guessing you’re coming with Kim? Your mom told me about her when we were in Minnesota over the summer. Actually, that story sparked this idea. :)
