My {I Have A Crazy} Erin Condren Life Planner & Giveaway!!



A few short weeks ago, the blog and twitter-spheres were a total buzz with chatter regarding the Erin Condren Life Planner. Reviews and giveaways were popping up left and right as girls all across the country proclaimed their love for The Life Planner. V-logs were recorded to mark the occasion and "Ooh's and Aah's" could be heard worldwide.

Well, Loyals. I'm no different. A self-proclaimed Type-A first born with a penchant for organization, lists and labels. Needless to say, I have no doubts that the Erin Condren Life Planner was made specifically for me. 

My love for planners goes way back. Roughly ten years, to be exact, when I was given my first "agenda" as we called them back in the day. It was given to me by my all-girls high school and basically imparted to me as the second most important book I will ever read, second to the Bible, of course. 

Well, they were right. I swore by that agenda. I tediously recorded every single little aspect of my life in it in perfectly legible Catholic School Girl penmanship. Yes, including dates and numbers of really cute boys. 

And so began my addiction to all things planner. Even before getting my hands on the Life Planner, I knew I would be smitten and Loyals, it was love at first sight. 



With so many places to write lists, take notes and keep track of my crazy, busy life, I'm just so much in love with this planner. 

I love how it's breaks down the day-to-day into three easy to manage sections. I love the large monthly calendar page that begins each month. I love that I desperately needed to color code my life so that I could keep track of each day's comings and goings on. 




This planner totally forces me to step up my organizational game. With pocketed folders and a super cute clear plastic zippy, it's the perfect place to store all of those coupons I get for the clothes that make this Mama absolutely swoony. 


See those stickers up there? I'm going to make it a priority that I use at least one of them every month. Particularly the "mani/pedi" stickers, "girl's night" and hey, maybe even "Vegas!" A girl can dream right?


Oh.. and well, let's just say that Erin and her team have had a major secret up their sleeves! Pretty soon you'll be able to purchase IPHONE CASES that will MATCH your Erin Condren swag! I'm pretty sure it doesn't get much better.

Well, Loyals. Do we have a treat for you. The kind folks at Erin Condren and the Erin Condren brand have graciously offered each of you the chance to win...

a $25 off coupon!

In addition, Carter would also like to give the lucky winner not one but...
 TWO 10% off coupons!

Just to say how much he LOVES you, of course! Each of these 10% off coupons are good for forever with no expiration date! No pressure, but we think you should put them towards ordering your Erin Condren Holiday cards! 


Here's What You Need To Do:

1. Be a registered follower of ILYMTC via either Google Friend Connect or RSS Subscribe.

2. "Like" the Erin Condren Facebook Page AND on their wall write "AP and C sent me!"

Do both of those things and leave me ONE comment telling me why you want to win this giveaway. 

For extra good juju:

2. Tweet about this giveaway!
3. Enter ANOTHER EC Giveaway over at Jennifer's Blog


If you do either of these things, leave a separate comment letting me know you wanted a bit of extra good juju, wanted to spread the Erin Condren love and totally wanted to pimp me out.


This contest begins today, October 10th and ends promptly at midnight on Saturday, October 15th. The winner will be announced on Monday, October 17th! Good luck and thanks to all those who enter!
