***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below! ***
Clearly I’m not the only one who loves a good writing utensil (and Target card) as this giveaway reached our 10,000 entry cap within just 24 hours. Nice work team! So that means we get to crown a winner early. That lucky writer is… Heather F (who “writes notes on the back of envelopes and then loses them. Argh.”) Congrats Heather!
This sounds kinda weird, but I’m very particular about my writing tools. So when the folks at Pilot noticed that we tend to write with their products, they wanted to thank us by passing some freebies along. But you know we don’t take them, so we’re paying it forward in the form of a $500 prize to one of you. Now, before you start figuring out what the heck you’re gonna do with $500 worth of pens – let me stop you. While they’ll keep your hands busy with a variety of pens and highlighters (even some erasable varieties) they’re also gonna let our lucky winner pick out $150 worth of Levenger notebooks and organizers (since we could all use a little organization this time of year). Oh, and to round out the $500 prize, how does a $200 Target gift card sound? That way you can pick up any other items you need to get 2013 off to a productive and organized start.
- PRIZE: An assortment of Pilot products plus $150 towards the Levenger notebooks of your choice and a $200 Target gift card (total value $500).
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “PILOT ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … your favorite way to take notes or scribble down a message. Do you always keep a ballpoint pen in your pocket or purse? Do you swear by pencils so that you can erase your misspellings? Or are you 100% digital and prefer to rely on phone apps and voice memos to keep you organized?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, January 16th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond specific areas (more on that here). This giveaway is open to the United States and Canada.
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Pilot Me! Every one I work with can tell you how weird I am about my writing utensils. You better not touch them, or else! I have always loved pilot pens, and mechanical pencils. You are smarter when your pencil is sharp!
Robyn says
Pilot meeeeeee
MK says
Pilot me!
I try to always have a pen handy, but for to-do lists, the any.do app on the iphone is fun!
Karen says
Pilot Me!
You’ve hit one of my weaknesses – office supplies! I use pen and post it for to do lists, but bust out some card stock (recycled from an old job) and retractable sharpie for grocery lists. Maybe one day I’ll convert to digital…but sharpies smell so good. :)
stephanie says

PILOT ME!
Jennifer Gonzalez says
PILOT ME!!!
I’m a ball point pen alll the way! I keep pens in my car and purse all the time. The best place to write an immediate note is on my hand and I have my to-do list on my desk where I keep my note pad. I even take the pens from hotels I visit hehehe :)
Rachel R says
PILOT ME! I have pens and paper stashed all over my home and office to write notes and things that pop into my head. I even have pens and paper in the bathroom for ideas that hit me in the shower :)

I cannot go anywhere without my colored ballpoint pens. Nothing makes you want to make a to do list more than if you have great pens!
Lissa says
Pilot Me Please!!!
Nicky says
“PILOT ME!”
I have pens and paper all over the house, in my car, in my purse. Has nothing whatsoever to do with being forgetful. Nothing.
Krista says
PILOT ME!
I do a lot of notes on my phone. But there is a magnet with a clip on my front door. Notes are often scribbled then hung on the door so I don’t forget!
Franny says
Pilot Me!
I’m a TEACHER, I carry so many pens in my purse at all times that I get made fun of.

Katie says
Pilot me!
I’m a teacher, so pencils are always preferred for fixing mistakes.
Kristin says
PILOT ME!
I am a teacher. Loosely this translates to: My life [and career] depends on always having a pen/pencil handy AND Post-Its practically coming out of my orifices.
Cait says
Pilot me! And I take very meticulous notes, primarily with blue ink. So meticulous in fact that I often rewrite my notes because I like them a particular way. Weird, huh?
stephanie says
PILOT ME!
I ‘m a fan of gel roller pens.
Megan says
Pilot Me!!
Honestly, Let’s face it. I have 4 kids who are always stealing my pens and pencils. Always. 2 of them are girls who also like to color on my pretty papers. ;) But with that being said. I do love a great pad of paper and a colored pen on my desk.
P.S. I know your giveaway is seriously killer! But I do have a little giveaway going on too. Come check it out. http://www.mydalydesigns.blogspot.com

I love using Pilot Pens! Usually at work I carry around at least 2 of them and jot things down on paper or in my notebook. My favorite part is crossing things off a to-do list :-).
