I am in a contest on a blog called Free Money Finance for the best personal finaance blog post of 2008. Please vote for me!
Each game is a contest between two posts. The writer with the most votes advances to the next round. I am in Game 11 today, Jan. 30, against one other rival. My post is called “Getting myself into a bargain bind” (a post from my days as the Bargain Hunter).
Here is how you can vote for me:
Read my entry and my rival’s entry.
Leave a comment voting for my post “Bind” if you feel mine is superior. So far I’m not getting too many votes.
Your comment should look like this: Game 11: Bind
In the comment you can also vote for Game 12: “Wrong” or “Socialist”
Thanks for your support!
PS. The comment form asks for your name and email address but you can comment anonymously without sharing your email. ~Julia

Sk, if you don’t think my post is the best of the two in Game 11, you should not vote for it. I’m only asking for people to vote for me who believe my post is the best. But I hope you will consider voting for me.

Oh, right. I see what Sk means now. Thanks Ellen. If Sk or anyone else wants to read about how my dilemma with Checks Unlimited turned out, I encourage them to read part II of “Got myself into a bargain bind” at

And part three is at

The comments on these posts bring up some of these issues.

Adriana,
Thanks for voting. It actually does not count unless you vote on the Free Money Finance page, but even so I appreciate your support!
