3000 fan giveaway shops AND coupon codes

Last night was a BLAST! After watching countless FB sites hold giveaways and comment games for reaching milestones, I decided I was ready to plan one for when FrayBabyBibsandMore hit 3000 likes. I wanted the giveaway to be steady, streamlined and smooth as possible. I also wanted it to be as beneficial as possible for ALL the shops involved. I thought last night was *close* to as good as it gets when it comes to comment games. I asked everyone to like fan pages or heart Etsy shops FIRST and then I posted the item that the shop was giving away. I let people comment as many times as they wanted and next time I might limit the comments to just one per picture. I didn't realize I was going to get 88 comments within 24 seconds! The Facebook limitation on the giveaway was that some comments show up as spam which  means only I (as the administrator) can see them until I unmark them as spam. So some people might have though they won when really there were 2 or 3 comments they couldn't see until I unmarked them. Also people, really? commenting 15 additional times AFTER you know that comment #20 wins and there are already 92 comments? That's a little excessive. ;) AND, after I counted to reach the winner, I stopped unmarking spam comments so you might have thought you comments didn't show up but I saw them. ;)
