Win a $75 Gift Certificate to JB And Me

posted by: Shomore in Shoe Contests on November 24th, 2008

Thanksgiving is this week! Finally – it means the holidays are upon us! And I can’t think of a better way to start spreading holiday cheer than to let you know about all the contests we’ll be doing on ShoeBlog. We’ve got a bunch of goodies in store for you, so do check back often and see what fun things we’re giving away.

With that, why don’t we kick off our first holiday contest, shall we? Maribeth VanZalen and Jamie Grasman, a mother and daughter dynamic duo, created the shop JB And Me to showcase their keen eye for fashion. Their retail stores have been around for 10+ years but thanks to the miracle of the internet, they’ve recently launched an online version of their store at JBAndMe.com. They’ve also graciously donated a hand wrapped $75 gift certificate for one lucky ShoeBlogger to spend on their website.


If I were the winner of the JB And Me contest (which I can’t be because sadly I can’t enter), I would use the gift certificate to purchase these warm Ipanema boots. There would still be spare change left to boot too.

Now, if you have enough shoes (but I can’t imagine that you do), there are a number of other products you could also use the gift certificate one, including 7 for all Mankind jeans,

Or Hollywood tape to leave you safe and less exposed in your holiday dress,

or scented candles to keep your home sweet and well light. You get the drift, there are a ton of things you could use the gift certificate on.

So now I’m sure you’re dying to know how to enter. Well, it’s pretty simple actually. Regular ShoeBlog readers already know the drill. If you are a US resident, simply leave a comment on this blog post telling us why you want to win. Your entry needs to be submitted by midnight Tuesday December 2nd. Good luck!

    My sister is only 16 and she is starting college in the winter. Because she has to pay for books, rent, tuition etc, she hasnt bought herself anything nice since the summer. So I'd like to win and get her a nice Christmas present.

  22. November 25, 2008 at 1:03 pm, Cici said:

    I’m a broke college student. And haven’t bought anything for myself since the summer.. which means no warm clothes!
    I think those tastey boots would be perfect~

    Oh I would love to win!! Starting university this winter in Utah and I have nothing snow-appropriate (coming from the tropical island of hong kong..)

    I'd probably buy the Nina Dolls Zoey Boots! Gorgeous.

    Wow! I need to do some shopping because I moved to the city and now I walk a lot instead of driving, so my shoes are getting very worn. This would be great!

  25. November 25, 2008 at 2:23 am, Sarah said:

    Oh man, i'd love to win.this would be such a treat after 2 months of solid studying for the step

    Ooh, so many good choices. Pick me, pick me!

    Although bad shoe buying experiences are rare for me, I had one last weekend! I found a super cute pair of casual boots, at discount store that doesn't take returns. They were so cute, I wore them out of the store and when shopping the rest of the day. After a few hours of shopping, a defect in the boot became apparent.

    Now I have a great pair of broken boots. That's why I want this certificate! I've already treated myself, and it felt more like a slap. I'd love to win this and make the JB and me website my next great shopping experience!

    WOW, nice contest, and nice site. thanks for sharing, I would love to win this and get some new boots or jeans. Thanks for the chance. Zoe

  29. November 24, 2008 at 5:02 pm, Emily said:

    I love those boots! I'm also a very poor college student.

    I would love to win to share my good fortune with others at this time of year. Good things do happen to good people and I have been a very good girl this year. I love to shop and have frequented this web site several times. I will just cross my fingers and wait……thanks for the opportunity!

  31. November 24, 2008 at 1:48 pm, Marluli said:

    … because I'm on no one's gift list this season.

  32. November 24, 2008 at 1:14 pm, Michelle Marie said:

    This would be awesome, I would use the gift certificate to get my mom some heels she's been wanting so badly on the website!

  33. November 24, 2008 at 1:08 pm, Katie said:

    Because I'm too chicken to invest money in a pair of nice boots. With this prize i'd risk it!

  34. November 24, 2008 at 11:00 am, Nemtynakht said:

    I would love to win because a) I never win anything; and b) I am FLAT BROKE this christmas season and yet badly in need of some sort of treat for myself. Ho ho ho!

    for starters: yay for a new shopping site! I love exploring new places to shop, and this one seems to carry a bunch of great brands.

    I would like to win for several reasons, the primary one being that I would love to purchase something that I do not just need but want. I am very practical, and my husband & I are very practical because we are trying to save up for a home, among other things. I love to shop but it has changed to become a "what do we need in what category" instead of a simple "let's just buy whatever we love" situation. So I would love to have a gift card and an excuse to buy something frivolous!

    On how I would the gift certificate, it's hard to say specifically, because right now I've got like 14 tabs open of stuff to look at and consider buying! I love the Shiraleah Clutch, the Mia Boots, the BIg Buddha Sonya Clutch, the Jeffrey Campbell Flawless boots, among stuff I haven't even gotten to yet! What I do know is that I will be working on building a wishlist at the very least!

    i want to win because there are just TOO many things i want from the website! $75 would help a little with that! the store carries many of my favorite brands (french connection, free people, odd molly) so its a one stop store for all my fashion needs. as a design student, its important for me to look good & to reflect my sense of style in the clothes i chose. i like jb and me because they offer a wide range of choices to meet just about any taste.

  37. November 24, 2008 at 6:06 am, Lys said:

    Quite simply, I'd love to win because even in today's economy, shoes are not a "want" but a "need"… even if they are pricey. You can't put a pricetag on that "Za Za Zu" when you wear a new pair of shoes.

  38. November 24, 2008 at 5:10 am, Katie said:

    Because a girl can NEVER have too many pairs of shoes!! ;)

  39. November 24, 2008 at 4:44 am, mistress meeyee said:

    I want to buy myself a pair of jeans that actually fit and my but doesn't fall out of them!

    I love reading this blog and thanks for the chance to win some goodies! :)

    I want to win.

  42. November 24, 2008 at 3:23 am, Allison said:

    I would love to be entered in the drawing. There are some really cute Nina shoes that I lurve. I never win anything…so fingers crossed!

  43. November 24, 2008 at 3:02 am, Aqua said:

    New shoes from such a fun company would be perfect – I haven't got any new shoes in the looonnngest time and JB and Me's are so cute!

  44. November 24, 2008 at 3:00 am, Naomi said:

    Love the WestonWear Camden dress and Jeffrey Campbell Frill heels in purple AND red…

  45. November 24, 2008 at 2:56 am, molly said:

    oooh I would LOVE that gift card right about now because I have promised myself no new shoes till all Christmas presents are bought! And lets just say I am a Christmas present buying procrastinator! I would definitely get the Naughty Monkey D-Ring boots! (if the majority of it is bought with a gift card that wont break my promise right???)

  46. November 24, 2008 at 2:22 am, Eleni said:

    Fun! I would love to win because I've been really good this holiday season–I haven't bought anything fashion-y for myself since Halloween (that's a really long time in my world) and have only spent money on gifts for others. Except for the time I bought hot pink tights at TJ Maxx last week. Accessories don't count. So, I deserve a little shoe spree :)

    Everyone knows i can't resist a nice pair of boots, especially around christmastime when i get to go shopping in the snow and need to look fab. i'm in.

    I couldn't stop browsing! I would buy the Cinderalla boots. So yummy!
