Hello everyone!
I'm sorry I haven't been posting updates. My account got taken over by someone and I haven't started a new one - I kind of don't like how Neopets got overrun with ads. It was fun while it lasted.

I will leave you with a prize for everyone - this is a company that pays you when you search the internet like you normally do. I get about 30 cents a day, so in an average month you can make $9 - enough to pay for a Premium Neopets account and buy yourself an ice cream cone:




Good luck!

The contest is done! I will be sending out the grubs over the next few days.

Whoever emails greatneopetsgiveaway@gmail.com with their username in the subject line will get a Wriggling Grub. The contest will go until I change this post to say the contest is over. One grub per person. Thanks!

I'm back!

And I want to finish this ASAP.

So, the first three people to reply to this post with their username will get a Magic Key!

The winner of the Goulblee is songofthefierylion. Congratulations!

Contest #10 will be up soon. In the meantime, be sure you are entered for Giveaway #4 and Giveaway #5!

Giveaway #9 - Biggest Prize Yet!

In the spirit of Halloween, Giveaway #9 will be for a Goulblee, a retired Spooky PetPet (est value: 65,000 NP)!

To enter Giveaway #9, simply send your Neopets username in the subject line to greatneopetsgiveaway@gmail.com by 11 P.M. NST on Tuesday, October 17th. Good luck!

Giveaway #8 results!

The winner of Giveaway #8 is thejoyofdeath who guessed Eilat, Israel. The correct answer was Nairobi, Kenya, which is 2,146 miles away. Congratulations, you will be receiving your prize pack soon!

A close second was 6uttercup, who guessed Cairo, Egypt at a distance of 2,204 miles. Since this was so close to the first-place guess, and the only guess on the right continent, you will receive a runner-up prize - Lord Kass Halloween Costume!

Giveaway #9 will be posted soon! In the meantime, Giveaways 4 & 5 are still accepting entries.

Giveaway #8

Giveaway #8 will be another guessing game. This time I have picked a world location (city, country). The rules will be as follows:

1. You can enter where you live, but you aren't required to.
2. Everyone will get one guess, and the person who guesses closest to that location will win the prize pack!
3. In the event of a tie, I will hold a tiebreaker by choosing another city in the world. I will probably also choose a runner-up prize for those that tie but lose the tiebreaker.

The prize for Giveaway #8 is a furniture prize pack, consisting of:

Coffee Table (2,500 NP)
Cookie Jar (200 NP)
Red Pot (300 NP)
Round Green Table (700 NP)
Straw Desk (800 NP)
Straw Sofa (500 NP)
Small Table Lamp (600 NP)
Dark Faerie Dresser (3,000 NP)
Dung Box (500 NP)

Giveaway #5: Invite a friend contest!

Giveaway #4 is still going, but the number of entries has really slowed down. Because of this, I'm starting a new giveaway so that the giveaways can go faster. Here are the details of Giveaway #5:

For Giveaway #5, there will be three prizes for:
* Most friends invited
* Random drawing for all people who invited friends
* Random drawing for everyone

Here is how this will work. You can get one point for each friend you invite. The person with the most points will win Prize #1. Then, everyone who invited a friend will get one entry for the Prize #2 drawing for each point that they have. Finally, everyone, whether they are new or not, gets an equal chance for Prize #3.

Entry instructions:

* If you are new to this site and somebody invited you, send an email to greatneopetsgiveaway@gmail.com with the subject line "Me:(your username) Invited By:(your friend's username)" For instance, if my username was Smoochy202854 and I was invited by JennyGirl73456, I would have the subject line:

"Me: Smoochy202854 Invited By: JennyGirl73456"

* If you were not invited to this site for this contest, you can submit an entry for Prize #3 by sending an email to greatneopetsgiveaway@gmail.com with the subject line "(your username), Not Invited". If you want, you can say how you found out about this site. For instance, if my username is PetLover3262, I would send an email with the subject line:

"PetLover3262, Not Invited, Google Search".

Be creative in telling your friends! Post on your blog or send emails. Please be careful and don't post on the NeoBoards, I think you can get your account frozen for posting links.

Prizes:
Prize #1: Stone Paint Brush (retired and worth 50,000 NP!)
Prize #2: Hewn Stone Sofa (retired and worth 10,000 NP!)
Prize #3: Chocolate Mint Slushie and Pepperminto Slushie (8,000 NP combined!)

Giveaway #4!

For Giveaway 4, we will have a Guess the Number contest. I have randomly selected a number between 1 and 1000. Once we reach 75 entries, I will award prizes to the top 3 closest guesses. In case of a tie, I will come up with extra prizes of equivalent value. To enter Giveaway #4, please send me an email at greatneopetsgiveaway@gmail.com with the following in your subject line:

Giveaway #3

For the third giveaway, we will have another random drawing. The prize will be a Super Icy Negg (est. value: 12,000 NP). We will have the drawing once we get 50 entries, so tell your friends so we can have our next giveaway soon! Email your username to greatneopetsgiveaway@gmail.com to enter. (If you can put it in the subject line, it makes it easier for me, but if you forgot, don't worry about it. :) )

The winner of the Tai-Kai Codestone is xweetoks_rok who correctly guessed Claude! Congratulations!

Giveaway #2!

The prize for the second giveaway will be a Tai-Kai Codestone. For this contest, I want you to guess the name of my cat. I'll give you a hint: he is male and has a human name (so no Fluffy, Meowmers, etc.)

Rules:
1. For the first round, everyone gets one guess. Email me your guess and your neopets username at greatneopetsgiveaway@gmail.com. It would be helpful if you could put your guess in the subject line like this: (username) (guess), so if my Neopets username were KitKat1214 (it's not), and my guess was John, my email subject line would be "KitKat1214 John".

The first person to guess correctly will win the codestone!

2. If nobody guesses right, I will post all of the incorrect guesses and another hint, and we will have a second round of guessing.

And the winner of the Bread is:

Comawhite333!

She was our 15th entry, and the number 15 was randomly chosen at Random.org
Stay tuned for our next contest, starting soon!

Please tell your friends or link to this site! Since the contests are based on number of entries, the more people that enter, the faster I can give away prizes!

Congrats to Nancyhuynh, who has won a Broken Green Chia Plushie! (est. value: 3500 NP) She was the first to enter the first giveaway and has won a special prize! You can still enter the Bread giveaway, read the next post to find out more!

The Great Neopets Giveaway

I am quitting my Neopets account and have lots of valuable items. Before I close it, I would like to host a giveaway where I periodically give items away as contest prizes or randomly. For each giveaway, I will post the item(s) and the rules for the current giveaway. Email your entries to greatneopetsgiveaway@gmail.com, and be sure to include your neopets username so that I can send you the item if you win! Multiple entries will be disqualified, so please don't send more than one email per contest.

For the first contest, I will be giving away 1 "Bread". Current value is around 15,000 NP. For this contest, I will simply randomly pick an entry from people who email me. I will pick a winner once I get 25 entries. Please put your Neopets username in the subject line.

Some of the items that I will be giving away in the future include things like a "Faerie PetPet Paint Brush", "Chained Book", various codestones, trading cards, battledome items, retired items, food, map pieces, paintbrushes, etc. Please tell your friends, I have about 1,000 items to give away. I am hoping to have daily giveaways for free Neopets items!
