Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away, which reminds us of one of the things we are most thankful for here on nwaMotherlode.com — THOSE BIG FREAKIN’ APPLIANCE GIVEAWAYS FROM METRO APPLIANCES & MORE! This week we’re thrilled to be giving away a brand spankin’ new stainless steel refrigerator, courtesy of Metro Appliances & More. It’s a 26 cubic foot Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator in a Smudge-Proof Stainless Steel finish! Behold the glamor shot below: Wouldn’t a new fridge look awesome in your kitchen, just in time for Thanksgiving when you and everybody else in the family will be in and out of there constantly? This one has designer lighting, SpillSafe glass shelves, touch-button controls, best-in-class filtration for better-tasting water and ice, and more than 100 different ways to organize and customize the fridge interior.
This refrigerator would normally cost more than ONE THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS, but it will be absolutely free (and delivered to your kitchen) if you’re the lucky mama whose name is drawn out of our online hat at the end of this week. (Winners are ALWAYS chosen at random using a random number generator.)
“BUT I DON’T NEED A NEW FRIDGE:” Yes, we know there are many of you who may be in love with the fridge that’s already in your kitchen. And if that’s the case, you should still throw your name in the drawing because, if you win, you could GIVE this free refrigerator to a family (or a non-profit organization) who could really use it. Think about what a blessing it would be to give it away. It would give a whole new meaning to the words “thanks” and “giving.” HOW TO ENTER: To throw your name in the online hat, click on the words “post a comment” below and tell us about something that has happened this year that you are thankful for. You can also enter the giveaway via email by sending your answer to giveaways@nwaMotherlode.com.

Be sure to put giveaways@nwaMotherlode.com on the CC line of your email and we will give you an extra chance to win for every person you send the email to. 2. Come visit the fridge in person at this weekend’s NWA Boutique Show! We’ll have this fridge at the nwaMotherlode booth at the NWA Boutique Show. Come by and say hello, and while you’re there you can toss your name and email address into the refrigerator’s crisper drawer. All those names will also be entered into the online drawing. 3. Send us one of your favorite recipes for possible use in our “Mealtime Mama” recipe collection featured here on the website.

They have an enormous showroom and the best staff we’ve ever encountered when it comes to customer service. They know the details on each appliance and are helpful without being pushy. That’s a tough thing to find these days. Metro has also sponsored this huge appliance giveaway on nwaMotherlode.com for the past four years which shows how much they appreciate local women and mothers. Thank you, Metro!

I am thankful for family.
I am thankful that my mom survived the head-on collision she had when she came up here in August to see me on my birthday…she broke her neck, skull and ribs but she is still here with us! I am thankful for my home and the job I have at a children’s clinic…it doesn’t pay a lot so I have to save for years to get furniture or appliances (I’m 34 years old and after 3 years of saving just got my first washer dryer!) But I’m thankful to be able to help the kids I work for and I know right now is my time to be single in my life so I’m thankful for these beautiful days too!
Since the day our daughter was born in 1987, I’ve never had the type of joy that I experiences 2 days ago when my first grandchild was born. I am so thankful for my grandson, Kyler, and his wonderful mom and dad – my daughter Lindsay and son-in-law Michael. They’re awesome parents. I am also thankful for the full circle – my awesome godly husband David. What a loving family you will know, baby Kyler. I am soooo thankful and sooooooo blessed!
I am thankful for my healthy children.

I am thankful for the early summer rains and again in mid July to provide an abundance of produce in our garden this past summer. We were able to share with family, friends and neighbors and still yet put quite a bit in the freezer.

I am very thankful for the health of my family, plus the new addition of my healthy baby girl in August. Our family is complete and full. I’m also thankful for the way in which God worked with me getting to quit my job and stay home with my three year old and new baby. Everything happens for a reason!

I’m so thankful For my daughters hair and mine! No we are not cancer patients. Kylee was Attacked by a dog earlier this year and most of her stitches and staples had to go in her scalp. We thought they were going to have to shave her head so I told her that I would get the same haircut. Amazingly the doctor did not! It took me over 18 hours to untangle her hair. Her long beautiful hair is a blessing, even when it’s a hot mess. Mine is a bonus.
So very thankful for my beautiful little family and wonderful friends!
