Mailbox Monday
Visit Marcia every Monday at The Printed Page to share what arrived in your mailbox each week.
Thanks to Lloyd Lofthouse for sending me a signed copy!
The next two need a little explaination:
I belong to an on-line points place called My Points. You get points for participating in surveys, and taking advantage ofr various offers. Many of the offers are free, you just click to go to the site. You can also get points for shopping. I have never spent a dime on this program, I just do the free things to collect points.
I then cash in My Points for a Barnes and Noble gift card. I usually have enough points to do this about 3-4 times per year. I also get points by sending out invitations to my friends to join (only at their request). When a friend joins, then I get referral points. If you would like me to send you an invitation, just email me and I will. You can then see what My Points is like and decide if it is for you or not.
The following are what I used my Barnes and Noble gift card on this time:
I already read and reviewd this book here. However, I got it from the library and really wanted to own a copy for reference. Here is my review.
This CD is the Deluxe Version, complete with an extra track and a 40 minute DVD on the making of 'Working On a Dream'. I know I deon't talk about music here, but is another passion of mine and Bruce is a favorite.

I really want to get the Springsteen CD. I can't believe I haven't already.

Teddy, I am a little puzzled by your comment on my blog regarding not responding to the contest win e mail. I read it Sunday and replied immediately. I went to my sent box today to make sure I am not losing my mind and it was sent Sunday. I just e mailed you a copy of it. Please let me know that you received it. Thanks a lot. It sounds like such a good book, I'd hate to miss out.

Springsteen is coming to Canada, eh? Aren't you excited! I am not a big fan, but if I was, the fact that every radio station down here is playing him to death would probably kill any interest I did have! These famous musicians that have lots of songs to choose from, and they play the same songs over and over again! lol Anyway, are you going?

I adore MyPoints. I've been a member for about 6 months and have already earned $100 in gift cards, and I'm very close to earning my next $25 card. I love free book money. :)

Thanks for visiting my maibox yesterday but I expected you would be a "lurker" for awhile longer ... hope this means you're on the mend!
Books in my mailbox ... and to think I used to get excited over shampoo samples.
Enjoy your goodies, Teddy!

Wendy, I had to have it! I have every Springsteen.
Kaye, so sorry about that! For some reason, you reply ended up in my spam folder. I just relyed to your reply.
Kathy, I find it very helpful.
Kailana, I saw him twice when I was a lot younger. Once when I was in High school and once a few years later. I don't know how much tickets our this time, but about 2 years ago tickets were around $300! Needless to say, I didn't go! LOL!
Ruth, I'm glad you like My Points too.
Wanda, thanks! It's a little better, but still sore. I'm not making near as many comments on blogs a s I usually do.
Serena, I'll send you an invite.
DeSeRt RoSe, Thasnks so much! I'm heading over to your blog now.
Nancy, it's all about the books!

My Splendid Concubine is such a good book. That's a very different cover on your copy-I like it.

Dar, It was your review that made me want it! Shame on you for adding to my TBR and ARC pile! LOL!
