* Five hilarious Custom Greeting Cards from Line Upon Line. The perfect way to tell the mean mom in your life how you really feel about her. My mother-in-law is turning 27 again soon. I'll bet you'll never guess which card she'll be getting.
* One Dozen Cake Bites or Cookies (your choice) from The Sweet Tooth Fairy. Available for pickup if you're local (Provo, Utah) or shipped to your door if you're not. Whatever you do, don't get the Double Chocolate Fudge cake bites that were featured on the Rachel Ray show. They taste as gross as they look.
* A designer-inspired Gucci Baby Wipes Case from Mod Mami. This little number makes the plastic Ziploc bag that I'm using for Cameron's stuff look pretty awesome. I am ashamed.
* A one-year subscription to Eliza Magazine. Beautiful clothes, informative articles, interviews with celebs who are not train-wrecks, photos of models wearing fashions that are actually flattering on real women's bodies. Yuck. Who wants that?!
* An ultra-stylish Baby Sling (your choice) from Mod Mum. These puppies are a far cry from the burlap-like nasties that I see around town and, um, maybe own. These slings are so dang cute that it almost makes me want to have another baby. Almost.
* A $20 Gift Certificate to Scribble It. Uber-popular on the West Coast, many of us mean moms on the East have yet to witness the beauty and versatility of vinyl wall art and lettering. I love all her stuff, but I'm especially fond of this design:
I like this quote because it describes my relationship with my children... and my breasts.
Find YOUR life's mantra (and the perfect medium to articulate it) at the Scribble It e-store. In your entry, say what saying/design defines YOU and/or your family.* An impossibly hip Burp Cloth and Blanket Set of your choosing from Claire and Me. Wait?! No teddy bears swinging from rainbows or pastel jungle prints? This store is everything that is wrong with baby gear these days.
* A stylish Notebook from Claire & Me Designs (print division) embossed with the famous World War II British propaganda slogan.
"Keep Calm and Carry On": Isn't that the truth?!
I like to make things easy! All you have to do to get your mean self entered in this giveaway is to COMMENT ON THIS POST!
If you are:
A) a man and are embarrassed to admit that you want anything other than the cake bites
B) Don't have and don't want a Blogger Account but still want "in," post a comment anonymously and leave your name/alias and email address.
Do you want an extra entry? Share the wealth! Write a post/p.s./footnote on your blog about this giveaway. Make sure to link back and you can go leave another comment!
That's it? Yep-that's it. Deadline is midnight EST on Friday March 6 (that's THIS Friday, slackers). Winners will be chosen at random and will be announced a day or so later.
Good Luck!

I am always up for something free, so count me in.
Nice! That baby sling looks just plain RAD. Yes, I'm a child of the 80's.
You are so funny! Hope you win your award! You deserve it!

Nice giveaway. Love your blog!
From one mean mom to another...I could totally use the chocolate.
But, of course, would be happy to win any of your lovely prizes.
And, can I say, it's currently snowing here...and that means snow day...with my six kids.
Did I mention I like chocolate?
Sign me up. I love giveaways! If I win the vinyl lettering, it's gonna say "Unless there's blood, I don't want to hear about it."
P.S. I am ignoring an "I need to a wipe" to finish this comment.
Commenting!
Love me some free stuff! Thanks!
It really shows how mean you are, with the new pic you put up of Cameron...his face says it all...oh, yeah, I cherished my boobs until i lost a whole cup size after mys were born!!...oh, and extra brownie points...I have voted for your blog 3 times ...

I laughed so hard at the Cherish comment you left! I used to feel the same way after nursing three kidlets...then I met a GREAT doctor! =-)
oooh!!! THIS GIVEAWAY ROCKS THE HOUSE! I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical at first, once I saw you weren't giving away any ugly sweaters. But I got over it...
READY TO WIN!
What an awesome giveaway! I'm crossing my fingers - I need that kind of madness to dispel our crazy kid madness this month!
I so hope I win! I use my time wisely and figure out what I want my saying to be!
I want the chocolate!
With my fourth on the way very soon, he will live in hand me downs until his AFTER his mission!!! This is one way to get something for himself! Plus, I don't think there's anything you're giving away I wouldn't want! Pick me, pick me! Good luck on the voting! I've e-mailed all my friends, and some even voted on work computers!!!
Pick me, Pick me!! I love all of those things, okay so the candy is not an interest (I am one of those people that everyone hates because I hate chocolate).
I want in! Sitting in a hospital waiting day after day for open heart surgery for my baby .... and occasionally snorting out loud with mirth from your blog.
Thanks for that!
Yahoo! Pick me and I will share the wealth. We had that freak snow storm here in Atlanta today.
You can definitely count me in! What a great giveaway!
Throw my name in the hat please.
This is great! Enter me please.
Holy best giveaway ever! The comment about your breasts and "Cherish the little things made me giggle.
I linked to your post in my last post, too!
http://namastebyday.blogspot.com/2009/03/calling-all-mommiesor-non-mommy-advice.html
Love it all! I'll be that Grandma of four, and I could use a great gift soon (or chocolates for me when they visit!!)
jvruth@msn.com
Feeling like an extra mean mom today! Please enter me! :)
I'm mean! I'm mean! I make my son put away his toys and wash his hands before dinner, and not eat chocolate all the time.
Love hearing the new things you guys get up to, and it almost makes me feel normal. :) Almost.
PS: I voted for you.
Wow, those prizes are great... I love the Cherish the Little Things wall art too.. I can see it on my wall with my kids pictures under it. Thanks for hosting this! I'm off to put it on my blog as well..
After a rough day at church today, I need to win this prize!! Oh boy do I hope I win!
That card almost made me pee in my pants ....well to be honest, as soon as church is over I am in pj's!
Your posts always make me laugh. Thank you! And thanks for the contest.
Me, Me, Me!
Love your blog! I like the
"A mother of Boy's works from son up to son down" in the vinyl lettering. So true with 16 month old B/B/B Triplets!!!
Love all of it. I just found your blog and it reminds me of myself. My 3 oldest kids think I'm the meanest mom since I make them do their own laundry (ages 10,8,7). I figure I have enough laundry to do with the 3 other kiddos I have and my husbands and my clothes-- not to mention I cloth diaper too!
Love it all! Pick me!
I don't normally do this, but why not - there's a first time for everything. I'm new to your blog, but I adore it! I share with all my friends. Thanks for the laughs!
I need that chocolate. And I mean NEED it.

Here's my second comment because I posted on my blog!! Hope I win!
This is the mother-load of all give aways!! I just discovered your blog a few days ago and have enjoyed many laughs over the week-end as I perused your archives. Good stuff.
Count me in! I read your blog every day while my kids nap just so I know there are other mean moms out there. So thank you. Your blog is manna from the heavens :)
I am not embarrassed to say this...I want it all! What a super giveaway, as always love your blog!
I confess I want to be picked the idea of Gross and Disgusting Double Chocolate Fudge cake bites has me drooling uh erm gagging.
I love your blog. Your contest is awesome.

jbrown@atcnet.net
our family mantra....divide and conquer
My two-year-old just started throwing up! I need a more pleasant surprise.
Such great stuff! I hope I win!
I'm drooling! Almost makes me want to have another baby, just like you. I miss my baby wearing days. BUT....I have lots of friends who are still having babies, and I could be their BEST FRIEND if I won. I'd keep the chocolates, the wall art, and anything else that doesn't have to do with babies, though!!
"I like this quote because it describes my relationship with my children... and my breasts."
LOL!!!!!!! Husband is out of town, and he just told me his flight will probably be canceled tomorrow night. i needed a good laugh tonight!
Love your blog- I read it everyday and you'd be suprised to know that Scott reads it too. Cute prizes too! I hope I'm lucky enough to win one- I have the worst luck though.
My daughter says it's snowing here in California. LOL! Too bad she's never been to the snow.
Alas, I'm already HAVING another baby, or that sling might make me want one too...
I have converted a few viewers. It is so fun. Thanks. I feel like we have so much in common. My husband got his masters at CU Boulder and is now working on his PhD in Medieval English Literature.
Pick me! I could put any of these items to good use!
While it doesn't compare to the holiday sweater, a prize is a prize. Thanks for offering up such great stuff!
Even though I have the worst luck, I have encouraged my friends to enter with a post on my blog: http://asmaddiegrows.blogspot.com/2009/03/meanest-mom-spring-giveaway.html. Mainly I am hoping the bribe, I mean giveaway, will encourage them to read so that we can laugh together.
Finally, something to make up to those who missed your holiday sweater giveaway.
Love your blog, and love give aways! Pick me!
Love, love, love the blog
Faithful commenter and adoring fan in desperate need of a surprize!!!
After hearing my boys fight for 12 hours straight, the boys refusing to nap (thus robbing me of mine) and the youngest falling off the top bunk and landing on an upside down plastic chair (yea - that was a nasty bruise) I could use a good reason to be a mom!!
ps. No new babies in this house so anything not related to the little tikes would be perfect!!
Thanks for a great giveaway, so exciting. If I won the Scribble it, I would choose the Flutter Puff. So cute!
This would be better if you won a teddy bear swinging on a rainbow.
I love contests! And I love your blog!
I've been trying for years to win something. . .ANYTHING! Pick me! Pick me!
Oops- just posted on wrong one... now I will go vote for you :) Love this blog, keep it up!
I love your blog! I also love Duke basketball.
oooooh, good stuff. i love your blog and constantly catch myself laughing out loud as i read it.
Prizes are almost as good as presents! I already linked to your blog today. Your voting thingy has me interested in another blog (don't worry she isn't beating you).
I love the "Keep calm and carry on" one. I have a pendant that says that...
i read your blog everyday but this is my first comment. i just couldn't pass up the chance to enter the giveaway. i love your blog!

Wow! Lots of great stuff! Love your blog!
Love your blog...would love to win something!
Thank you for having this contest. You came up with some incredible prizes too!
Wow weezers. Enter me please. :-)
Those are some awesome prizes to win! Though I agree - those fudge cake bites look so awful that I would have to choose them and eat them all just to put them out of their misery. ;-)
I love the wall scribbles! I'm pretty sure Hubby would hate them, but that just makes me want them all the more.
Count me in! I've been reading your blog from the beginning...can't get enough of it!
WOW this is a loaded giveaway. I love it! I love the ScribbleIt saying Live..Laugh..Love..
I just found your blog about a week ago, and I've been reading it every day. I love it! I definately want to be in the giveaway. I would post a link to you on my blog, but I don't know how, so this will have to do for me.
what GREAT prizes!! and yum chocolate. Love your blog.
Don't give me any of that new baby crap. My husband already took one for the team. I'm in it for the chocolate, vinyl lettering, or notebook. Thanks for the contest.And you have my vote.
Great giveaways--thanks!
sylviarj@yahoo.com
Who doesn't love winning things. =)
Ooh fun! I love giveaways! What a way to bring in March! :) So fun!
In fact, I love giveaways - and blogging - so much that I've shared the "meany wealth" on my very own blog! :)
I would love to be entered in the contest!
http://rachelkuhtz.blogspot.com/2009/03/im-so-excited.html
Sounds excellent! I want something!!!
What a great giveaway! I'm not a mom, but will be one day!
What? a contest for chocolate? Count me in please!! Thx!
Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!
As a die hard fan, I posted your blog on my blog to get people to vote for you. You are destined to win, just as I am destined to win on your site...hint...hint:) Thanks for entertaining me in these days of endless diaper changes and bad hair days.
You are refreshingly irreverent. Thank you and I enjoy your sass!
So I just gotta post? I'm posting!!!
A friend of mine introduced me to your blog and I've been an avid reader ever since. I'd love to be entered in your contest!
I gotta get in on this one! I am a new reader on your blog, but I AM LOVING IT! So good to read a blog that I can relate to...and that helps me see the humor in my life, too!
I love winning things! :)
http://wonderingsofaworkingmom.blogspot.com/
It's all about that chocolate. I need it!
Keep calm and carry on, Jana!!!
...and I linked you to my blog!
I need those treats from the sweet tooth fairy! Ok, I don't NEED but I WANT!
Here's my entry...
I like to put funny little quotes on my blog, and my favorite thus far came out of my 3 year-old:
"Mommy, you are NOT normal!"
A'right--second entry for linking to you on my oh-so-popular blog. *snort* Do I get bonus points if I yell "GO DUKE!!!!!"?
Well, with over 100 comments, we'll see how this goes. I really want to win something for moms. Not because I am mom or will be one soon, but because I have THREE sisters-in-law who are expecting right now, and I'd love to be able to give something away as a gift. It's not re-gifting if I won it, is it?
Ok, so I found your blog off someone else's blog which was off someone else's that I read... ;) Anyways, this is one amazing giveaway and I'm so excited! I'm also glad I came across your blog!
You can give me anything on the list. Thanks!
Thanks for the giveaway--you may be a mean mom, but a very generous blog author. :)
I love the cards--"laugh and not pee your pants." Classic.
Regardless of if I win, I loved the great ideas from your contest! I'm sure I will use many of these sites. What I WISH is that you required everyone entering the contest to include a fun site in return! Think of the flood of bounty we would have. As for my contribution, I was going to include a vendor but instead decided to include a fun site instead. It's one where you can make funny faces: http://www.mrpicassohead.com/.
Yay for small boobies!!! I hope I win!
Oooh, man, I want to win everything! I hope you pick me!!
I posted on my blog!! http://aprincesaerica.blogspot.com
As president of the *IBTC, I'd like to thank you for your generosity. And I'd like to win please.

Everyone has so many great ideas on the vinyl lettering... I'll have to think that one over. I love reading your blog, it makes my day- and I totally think you should write a book. Anyways, I'd love to be entered in the drawing- that's one heck of a giveaway! I'm putting a link on my blog right now!
love the title of your blog. i say that to my kids all the time.
count me in!
Oh dear, I must have the notebook! Keep calm and carry on - my new mantra!!
I could really use some chocolate cake bites. Is it wrong to hope I win?

Holy! That is quite the giveaway! Count me in!

Count me in too! I could use a good win!
Love your blog!! And would love to win something cute!!
Woo Hoo! I'm in! I love cute stuff ... especially when it's free!
Good Luck everyone
Um, do I get extra points since I'm pregnant with #6 and am extra mean to my kids? PLUS I've given away all my baby stuff (my baby is 6) and really would love some of that cute baby gear... not to mention chocolate to get me through another day... Please?
I so love "be calm and carry on" and "cherish the little things, for one day, you;ll look back and realize they were the big things!"
i'd love to be entered in the drawing!
I am far from old and almost pee while laughing at your daily posts. I would love to win one of these fantastic gifts. Fingers crossed...

I love to start off with a laugh.
You are an inspiration!

I love the title of your blog (and your blog)!
My mom had a poem called "The Meanest Mother" hanging in our kitchen growing up. As a teenager I thought the title was a perfect description of my mom and that I'd never be a mean mom. But now that I'm a mom, I totally want to be the "meanest" mom like in that poem because she just loved her children.
Love this. Thanks for the chance to win.
Janet
Wow. I feel like a major straggler...I'm the 156th comment! I would love to say something to make you laugh as hard as you make ME laugh, but....I can't. It's late here in Utah and I'm just too darn tired. What made you decide to write on a weekend, anyway? You NEVER write on weekends. That being said, why do I always check to see if you do? Lol! Count me in!
Oooohhhh, there are some awesome things here! Sweet giveaway! Thanks!
Definitely want to win something. I live close to Provo/Orem AND I am friends with the brother/sister-in-law of the owner of "The Sweet Tooth Fairy". Her cake bites are fabulous!!!!!
I would Love to win ANY of these fun prizes!!!! I'll also post on my blog for the extra entry! FUN GOOD TIMES!
Whew Wee, what a GREAT giveaway...and cute blog! Thanks for the chance, I'll be back!
Jamie :-)
WOW! The contest brings out blurkers like nothing else--must be the great prizes. I hope I win! I'd choose the amazingly funny cards OR the vinyl lettering (I'll be thinking of the perfect phrase).
Voted for you--more than once.
ooo - you've successfully lured me out of hiding. yes to cake! and btw, i love your blog. ^_^
This stay-at-home dad would love the cookie bites and the ScribbleIt prize!
Thanks for the laughs and the fun giveaways.
I want (all of) that.
Pick me! :) This all looks great!
I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU!!!
lol
I'd love it ALL!
I am flying to Utah tomorrow to visit my girlfriend and her 3.5 (one is in womb without a view)adorable bratlings (like ducklings, but.. NOT) and I ordered her to take us all to the Sweet Tooth Fairy's to jack her kids up on sugar. SCORE!
Great giveaway! I mentioned it in my blog this morning too!
I am a mean mom. I won't let my kid stay home by himself while I go to church. He has to eat a piece of fruit before he can have a second helping of cereal at breakfast. And the other day, I made him take a shower. He's bemoaning his luck to anyone who will listen.
me! especially since it's my bday on march 5!!!
What a great bunch of goodies you have! The only time I've won anything in 31 years, my mom had entered my name without my knowledge. I'd ask her to comment on my behalf here in the hopes of repeat success, but that would mean admitting that the mom of her grandbabies finds your blog wonderfully irreverent, inspiring, and hilarious... and I just don't have the energy for that conversation, so we'll be keeping this on the down-low. ;)
I can't get past the Double Chocolate Fudge cakes. Yum!
I'd love a treat!!
Vanessa in Canada
My second baby is due in June and that sling looks awesome! Pick me! :)
Love your blog!! Thanks for the chance at this Fabulous giveaway!!
You must know some very talented people cause all of these items are fantastic.
I do enjoy a good contest, and I love to win.
thanks for the chance
Awesome giveaway...enough to bring me out of lurkdom!
What and awesome give away!
Count me in!
You make being a mom so much fun! Thanks for being here for us all!
I'm totally lovin' the sling and those just horrible looking cake bites. I mean, really, I can't imagine why Rachael Ray would have those on her show. I love your blog! Oh, yeah, and I want a present ; )
Count me in!
trips81103@yahoo.com
Hahahaha, "...it describes my relationship with my children...and my breasts!" I feel very much the same way!
Anyway, your blog brightens my day!
For the cards, I know a few moms who need to know exactly what I think of them, the desserts look like they could be deadly which is good for a mean mom, I know 2 moms about to pop w/ baby #2, I have zero fashion sense and don't need runway models telling me how to do it when I don't weigh 92 lbs sopping wet, and would love to "Scribble" all over my house like my son did when he was 2 (only in the adult version).
Blessings,

I have a ton of snow outdie my house and my kids a begging to go out side but mommy likes it inside where its warm and she can read her daily "make me feel better about myslef" blog with all the other mean moms.....plus I never turn down free stuff with a new baby on the way!
I would love to win something! ;)
Love your blog! After having 5 kids, I can relate to so many of your stories. My youngest is 15 and the only one left at home now. He says I'm so mean because I had all of the others to practice on. They say he's got it waaay easier than they ever did!
Wow, what riches! I would so love to win. Pick me!
I love that little notebook! Very cool giveaway stuff. Love your comments on all of them.
Would love to say I'll link you to my blog, but in all honesty, I'll probably forget. It's Monday. It's my lazy day.
I hope it's not too late to get in! LOVE the blog. Thanks for making me laugh, and realize I'm not alone in this.
wow, what an awesome contest! You rock!
Oh, I also posted a link in my blog!
