CSN Stores Giveaway! CLOSED
I will be the first to admit that I love shopping. I love getting items that are priced competitively or on sale, and stores that have a huge selection of goods to choose from.
That being said, many stores don't always have exactly what I am looking for. And with limited time, I sometimes have to go to two or three stores in our area to find what I want. I love shopping online too, but I'll confess, I absolutely hate shipping fees!
When I found out about CSN Stores (you can access over 200+ stores on their site!) and saw the wonderful selection of items they offer, I was hooked. It truly is a place for one-stop shopping, and you can often find items on sale AND with free shipping as well. Plus, you don't have to drive around town wasting gas and precious time looking for what you need. The whole process can be done any time of day or night, right from the convenience of your own home-on YOUR time, when it's convenient for YOU. And that, my folks, is the way I like it.
CSN Stores has been around since 2002, and is currently located in Boston, MA. They offer brand name goods for your home and office at competitive prices, while focusing on excellent customer service, well trained and informative employees and stand by their guarantee of: "We guarantee your absolute satisfaction - 100% of the time." The website is easy to use, even for those not so internet savvy (like my mom) and you can refine your searches many ways, helping you to find exactly what you are looking for in no time at all.
Since we bought our house in 2005, I've been doing things little by little to get it decorated the way I want it. When we first moved in, one of the things I noticed I needed to get done would be to repaint the shower/tub ceiling and replace the now non-functioning light over the tub with something a little more my style. (photo above of how it looks now) I've been drooling over the options available in the CSN Stores Recessed Lighting section but have been unable to nail it down to a final choice.
I was thrilled when contacted by Jason at CSN Stores and given the option to choose any product of up to $60.00 to review OR to give away a product from any of the CSN 200+ Stores to one of my readers! Now, if you're like I am, you just might have a special project you want to finish as well, or you might need a cookware item, etc.. so I've left it up to you what you would choose with your $60.00 credit. Keep in mind though, that your item has to be under $60 and shipping included for the giveaway. Since CSN Stores ships to both US AND Canada address, my US readers and those north of the border can enter too!
You do not have to be a blogger to enter, however I MUST have a way to contact you if you are the winner, so please be sure that your email address is in your comment. Winner will be selected by random.org and notified by email shortly thereafter. Winner will have 48 hours to respond to my winning email notice or I will have to select another winner. Giveaway will end on June 1, 2010 at 11:59 pm EST.
Okay, now that all that is said and done-I need your help! For your first MANDATORY entry, please go to the link above (recessed lighting) in my post and when you get there, check out the Shower Lighting section. Let me know what YOU would choose from their vast selection to replace that nasty looking light above. I need some ideas folks! You may also let me know what you would get with your $60 credit to CSN Stores as well, if you'd like. But don't worry, that part isn't mandatory, I'm just curious as to what you'd spend the $60 on if you won.
You may also earn extra entries as listed below. Keep in mind that you will need to enter each comment separately, so if it says +5 you need to leave 5 SEPARATE comments.
+3 current blog follower via Google Friend connect
+2 new blog follower via Google Friend connect
+1 current or new twitter follower (micaela6955)

+5 Blog about this giveaway, and leave me a link to your post.
+5 Post this on any giveaway linky and leave me the info so I can check it out.
+2 Add my button to your sidebar
Wishing you all lots of luck and hoping to get some great ideas as to what I should get to replace my current shower lighting, thanks for the help and for your comments!
Disclaimer: The content above is my own opinion. I did not receive any compensation for this review and giveaway, I was offered the chance to review and/or give away an item to my readers from CSN Stores. I chose to let my readers receive the gift credit so they could experience CSN Stores great service for themselves. That being said, I have been the lucky recipient of an item or two from other blog giveaways in the past offering CSN Store merchandise, and I am impressed with their quality and selection of items and quick shipping.

1 – 200 of 404 Newer› Newest»Good morning and Happy Mom's Day! Aren't we both lucky to have the kids close to home! I've had 5 phone calls and 1 hug--more coming later on! LOL While I'm sitting here waiting for my SLOW dialup to open CSN I figured I'd just say HI.
I love CSN and got a beautiful quilt rack from them last fall. Now I've actually been in there shopping this week. I'm looking for some lamps for my grand daughters bedroom. They have some really nice and reasonable ones there.
As for your bathroom- I'd go with recessed if I could. My light gets all steamy etc and its hard to get up there to clean around the edges. I wish it was set into the ceiling and my swiffer would do the job!
Okay- open finally! I'd go with the Thomas Recessed 8" x 8". It sets in and is bigger! Believe me- half the time without my glasses, in the shower, I can't read shampoo from conditioner! Remember the time I exfoliated my hair with body wash? LOL More light is always better and that's a nice looking one! Good luck picking yours out!

I would choose this for your shower: WAC - HR-D418-WT - 4" Low Voltage Drop Dish Dome Recessed Lighting Trim for Showers. For myself, the CSN item I like is the Le Creuset skinny grill in cobalt blue.

I'd choose Sea Gull Lighting - 11092AT-15 - 4" Recessed Housing Shower Trim with Airtight Gasket in White because it looks easy to clean and the convex cover would draw water condensation away from the edge of the housing.
One place I like to have good lighting is in my bathroom. When your plucking eyebrows or applying make-up you need good lighting. Recessed lighting is usually dim. It's great in some areas but I don't care for that type in my bathroom. My thinking is the more light the better. I look for a large light that was flush with the ceiling and that had clear glass and not frosted.I couldn't find an 8" so the largest was 6" the trim is recessed not the light on this one so it should provide lots of light Sea Gull Lighting - 1155AT-15 - 6" Recessed Trim in white. The price was great less than $20. I went over the $60 on this one but I have been wanting this rooster pot rack and IMAX - 1719 - Coq-au-Vin Hanging Pot Rack in Brown
SKU #: IMX1084 $79 and Then of course I just had to have these cute MAX - 27364-3 - 3 Piece Kitchen Utensil Hook Set
SKU #: IMX1563 $24. This would spice up our new country kitchen~! Thanks for sharing this fantastic giveaway~!

I would love the WAC - DR-G352-AM - One Light Spherical Beauty Spot in Amber. I love amber one of my favorite jewelry pieces is an amber and silver ring. Am 74 year old grannie with 4 of the world's most beautiful granddaughters and if I might just brag a bit the eldest was just elected to the High School National Honor Society. My feathers are standing at attention. Would use this to buy her something special for her room. Fingers crossed here in the Poconos
I agree, go with the Thomas Recessed 8" x 8". I like light as I get older, can't see a darn thing :(

the Thomas Lighting - TR18AB - 8" x 8" Recessed Light in Antique Brass is cool!
I'd get a recessed lighting fixture
WAC - HR-D329-WT - 3" Low Voltage Drop Dish Recessed Trim. As for what I'd choose, my cats would adore one of their cool cat condos.
I like A LOT of light when I am taking a shower.. makes it easier to shave those pesky legs that we love so much. Anyhow, I would go with the Sea Gull Lighting - 11032AT-849 - 6" Recessed Trim with Multiplier in Satin Nickel just because it is 6" of light... why go with a 3-5 incher when you can get 6 whole inches!
By the way, I would get a Oster 12 speed blender.

I think I would choose the Thomas Lighting -TRU315C - Recessed Shower Light, I like the touch of silver. Or the Progress Lighting - P8083-60 - 6" Fluorescent Firebox Drop Opal Shower Recessed Light Trim for something softer. If I had $60 to spend, I'd get a new food processor to replace our sadly deceased one.

I would replace your existing shower light with one which has an exhaust fan with a light. The Nutone Value Test Fan/light or the AirKing ASLC White Combination Fan/Light might work for you. It is so nice to have all that moisture vented away so your bathroom mirror doesn't steam up!
I also like the Pulaski Keepsakes Chocolate Cherry Two-Way Sliding Door Curio/Display Case!

This one. P8073-WL28 - 6" may not be stylish but I've found that I hate cleaning bugs out of globes and the I prefer a direct (rather than diffused) light in the bath. I tend to miss swaths of leg when shaving in lower light...
Oh, and I'd totally get a Kit-Cat Clock.
