Kitchen Aid Mixer Giveaway!
Last Christmas I bought myself a present. It was big, and beautiful, and matched my stainless steel appliances. It was a brand new KitchenAid mixer and I have never loved an appliance more than I do this one. I use it several times a week making cookies, cakes, pies and bread dough. Oh yes, I LOVE my KitchenAid. :)
So when Sam's Club contacted me and said they wanted to give one my readers a KitchenAid mixer, how could I possibly say no?? This one is even spiffier than the one I have, so I know the winner is just going to love it!
I know right??? A KitchenAid mixer! :) A KitchenAid Commercial 5 Series Bowl-Lift, 11 Cup Stand Mixer to be exact. You can click here to read all the details about this great machine. This puppy is valued at $545.00!
