Thank you to everyone who entered my giveaway!  I’m so glad that so many of you find the little ladybug lunchbag as adorable as I do.  Trust me, it’s even cuter in person.  Now, without further ado, our winner is….

And lucky #7 is…. (drumroll please….)

Kisha!!  Congratulations, Kisha!

Our “Giveaway Extravaganza” is almost to an end and I just want to thank everyone for participating.  I know last week was a slow one around here, but never fear.  This week will pick back up and I know I have some great posts in store.  (In other words, don’t go wandering off!)

Continuing on with our End of Summer Giveaway we have an object that is not incredibly glamorous but it is one of those incredibly useful items.

Ta Da, a diaper liner bag. Or as we call it here at The Burrow, the thrifty camping bag liner. This nylon bag changed my entire outlook on cloth diapering. Prior to buying my own nylon camping bag diaper pail liner I was dumping dirty diapers into plastic bags in buckets. And? It was gross.

After reading a few posts by the other Cloth Diapering Mama’s I moved to the nylon bag in trash can plan.

Now when it’s time to wash diapers I just take the bag from the trash can to the washing machine, dump all contents and then the bag into the washer. It rocks. Life! So much easier.

For other incredibly useful make your life easier cloth diapering tips, check out Kate’s ‘getting started‘ post.

To enter just comment on the post by Sunday at midnight, we’ll be back here Monday morning for another round of my Kid is a random number generator.

**Sorry winners are limited to US residents, due to not only postage but my unwillingness to drag two small boys to the post office and fill out the forms. Thanks for understanding.

So what are you waiting for?  Enter!  Though, you have until the end of July so there isn’t really any rush here. But STILL.  Free diapers!

In my cloth diaper travels, lately, I’ve come across this little graphic here on the right.  And after seeing it a couple times I started to wonder, “Huh, I wonder what that’s all about?”  So I clicked on it at the Rumparooz site and found out it’s a GREAT. BIG. CONTEST!!  More specifically, it’s the Great Cloth Diaper Hunt, a semi-annual contest.  And how fun can you get?  The idea is you visit all the sites that are sponsoring the hunt (I’m not one of them, by the way, even though I have the graphic here in this post.) and once there, you have to find a little graphic.  It looks like this:

Once you’ve found it, you click on it and you get credit for having found it.  The “level” of prize you are eligible for is directly related to how many of these little icons you can find.  But if you them all, then you can win a prize package worth over $1000!  Hot DANG, you all!  I like me some free loot, I don’t know about you.

So I find myself being able to indulge in two wonderful pastimes here: cruising cloth diaper websites and playing what is essentially a game.  All at the same time!  Seriously.  Who wouldn’t want to play along?

I have found myself vastly preferring the sites that leave little “clues” for us hunters.  If I have to just click through an entire website’s site map, I’m not too happy.  So I tend to skip those sites, at least for now.  I don’t really expect to win anything, but I’m finding a lot of really cool sites and even learning some stuff while I’m at it.  I am glad, however, that already knew some cloth diapering basics before diving in because if I hadn’t, some of these clues would have gone RIGHT over my head.

Anyhow, wish me luck and join in while you’re at it.  You have until the end of May to participate!
