So. I am hosting another Magic Bullet giveaway. ‘Tis true.
No, it’s not the one I received and have been using from Fairlife. I literally have an extra one that I need out of my tiny one bedroom apartment due to a shipping error.
Don’t worry, I was told I could keep it. Except…I already have one!
I thought since I already did a Magic Bullet giveaway on the blog…I should try my hand at an Instagram giveaway. After reading up on how others have done their Insta-giveaways..I posted mine this morning.
And basically there were crickets. Sure it got “liked,” but so did my egg salad on spinach with bacon picture.
I’ve been scratching my head all day trying to figure out why the Magic Bullet giveaway on the blog went over like gangbusters (no, I don’t even know what that phrase means, but I’m pretty sure it works in this instance) and it hasn’t gotten all crazy on Instagram. My bacon picture and the Magic Bullet giveaway picture have almost the same number of likes at the moment.
I mean yes, it is work to open up your re-gram app and post a picture to your Instagram and tag 3 of your friends…but…you could win a Magic Bullet! Right?? I mean I could just have people “like” the photo, but then people could accidentally enter the giveaway without really knowing it. I know I’m not the only one who scrolls through sometimes looking for pretty pictures without actually reading the paragraph someone has posted!
So…I will post the giveaway link on the blog–> Magic Bullet Giveaway on Instagram
So that you can
a. Enter my Magic Bullet giveaway!! and/or
b. Tell me what (if anything) I should have done differently.
You can even save the image below and put it on your Instagram if you don’t have a regram app, but make sure to use the hashtag #SHNmagicGIVEAWAY so I can find your entries on Monday. 🙂
Okay, so go enter the Magic Bullet giveaway.
[Tweet “Amanda is hosting another Magic Bullet giveaway!! This time on Instagram!”]
Then check to see if you won last week’s giveaway. I will e-mail the winner this week (or you can always e-mail me at semihealthnut at yahoo if I’m too slow for your liking!).
I know. I am going giveaway crazy on the blog lately! And there is more to come!
If you really hate giveaways, I do have a post all about food coming at ya this week.
Then possibly some of my current favorite tunes to listen to while running.
I may even have a recipe for ya if my computer cord gets here on time to upload all of my the photos onto my laptop. I used to use my old laptop since it has a place to stick the SD card, but I think it’s done dealing and my “new” one doesn’t have a handy-dandy slot. (<-first world problems, right?)
Tell me….
Have you ever done an Instagram giveaway? Any tips?

Follow me so I can check out YOUR Pinterest account! 🙂
Stay in the loop with bloglovin’!
Ooooh I would love to win! I already follow you on IG and Pinterest 🙂 I have only done a few giveaways, but seems like you are doing everything you should be doing! Just maybe make it a little easier to enter with the rafflecopter box on the page?
haha yeah it might come down to that but the point was to do an Instagram giveaway! I see them all the time so I thought I’d try it out.
I don’t have an IG account and was wondering if there was any other way to enter? Thanks:)
I might open it up on the blog but for now it’s an Instagram giveaway and I’m just letting everyone know. 🙂
No problem:) I was just wondering.
You should get IG though! 🙂
I have never done an instagram giveaway before. I may have entered one tho. I didn’t enter yours just because I don’t need another blender. Might as well let someone else win it, right? I just used your tweet it plugin above to tweet your giveaway. I hope that can help you out!
Thank you, Shelly!! I retweeted ya! <3
I’m seriously clueless about how to run an IG giveaway… I do know that I hardly ever pay attention to them, though. And I love my Magic Bullet 😀
I think that’s the general consensus that people just don’t really pay attention to them.
My goodness you are rolling in the blenders over there! I tend to scroll past IG giveaways so I can’t say I have any suggestions for you on this one.
I really am! And yes I don’t think I’ve entered an IG giveaway either haha.
NEVER have I done an instagram giveaway! I am intrigued!
Well so far it’s not going great…and from these comments I’m guessing most people don’t enter them anyways!
LMFAO!!!! FAIL – I hate Instagram because they don’t HYPERLINK links!!!!
omg seriously. It’s hard to promote blog content without a link! and if someone else is promoting a post I always think “I’ll have to remember to look at that later…and never do!”
