Jungle Madness

Welcome to June's Vintage Giveaway! Seeing as in one week it will be O-fficially summer, I thought it only apropos to give away something apropos of summer. Duh. So what could be better than something tiki-themed? Everyone loves tikis. Yo' mama was a tiki. I'll tell you what's better than a tiki theme~ a tiki theme and cocktails.



So this month's giveaway is this fun plastic cocktail shaker and cups set! OK, so it's not technically vintage, dated 2002, but if you wait another 13 years it will be, so there. I got this as a present 7 years and it's never been used, so it's time I destash and bestow this re-gift upon someone else. It really was a well-thought, charming little gift from someone, but I just have way too many actual vintage cocktail shakers and glasses already that I've collected over many moons. Am I bad a person? Let's consult the Magic 8 Ball. *shake shake shake* Magic 8 Ball says: "It is certain." Sigh.

It's tiki time!



No, really. It says so.




I'm pretty sure that any native anywhere wouldn't drink something called a "Grass Skirt" but who am I to argue with a cardboard box?




Each cup has a tiki mask on one side and a cliche-ishly named drink recipe on the other. ("Lei Lady Lei" sounds like something stupid and corny I would say, so naturally I'm both repulsed and enchanted.)


Everyone and anyone is welcome to sign up! It doesn't matter if you've never left a comment before or you're not following this blog (though it sure does help. Zing!) And it's totally free to you! To be eligible, just leave a comment that you'd like to be entered in the contest - or - you can drop me an email if you'd rather keep it on the down low.

The winner's name will be drawn from a hat (seriously. I really do it that way!) in one week, on the 21st. What better way to celebrate the first day of summer than by getting loaded on a "Grass Skirt"?
