It is finally time for the first round of giveaways at The Pen Addict! I really appreciate all of the support I have had since starting this blog, and it is time I started to give something back to you, the reader. I have four giveaways in total to dish out over the next few weeks, so be sure to keep an eye out.
Everyone knows I am a huge fan of JetPens, and the good people at JetPens have been a big part of the success of The Pen Addict. They have been kind enough to donate three $10 gift certificates to their online store for this round of giveaways - thank you JetPens team!
I'm a pretty simple guy, so I am going to keep the rules for these giveaways as simple as possible:
1. Leave one comment on this post anytime between now, and Thursday night at 11:59 PM Eastern Time. You are limited to one entry.
2. For this contest, I will pick three winners (one for each gift certificate) at random from the comments section of this post. The comments will be numbered in the order they are received, i.e. the first comment is #1, the second #2, and so on. The random number generator at randomizer.org http://www.randomizer.org/ will be used to pick the numbers of the winners.
3. The contest winners will be posted on Friday, October, 17th. The winners will have one week to email me at the email address posted in the right sidebar.
And that's it.
If you have any questions about the contest please email me directly - do not post them in the comments section. If it is an issue that I feel needs to be addressed, I will update this post with any additional information.
Thanks, and good luck!

Hi! I've been a lurker on this site for some time and I thought today would be a good day to start contributing (not that I have anything worth saying, really). Love the site - keep up the good work! =)
Your site is a regular stop for me first thing in the morning. I have you to thank for my wonderful A. G. Spalding ballpoint. Thanks for all you do.
I wanna win, I found your site a few months ago, very nice.
Hey, I like free stuff!
I looooooooooove JetPens. When I'm bored at work (shhhhh) I hop on over to JetPens and buy me some awesome pens and pencil cases. I have spent way too much this year on their site. It's just so easy- I want everything!!! And nothing beats a great Japanese pen. My current fav...the Pentel Slicci!
Hi, I'm Dinin, and I'm a pen addict...
I'm another addict!
New reader, long time pen nerd.
Subscribed to your feed, good blog!
Wooo! I love The Pen Addict!
Thanks for the opportunity to win something.
Hey, dude, this is a great blog about pens! Keep up the good work!!
Lucky number 13? (Assuming I'm quick enough!)
Love your pen reviews. Pen freebies makes the site even better!
I hope I get $10 off my first Lamy pen!
Yay for free stuff!
Thanks to the Pen Addict, I have been sucked into the world of Jet Pens. My bank account hates you, I love you.
~~~Leaving a Comment~~~
Oooh... me too!! I like to enter draws!
I never comment, mostly because I use a reader that makes it harder than it should be to comment from work (where I get most of my blog reading time)... but I read all the posts because.... well... i'm obsessed with pens!
I'd love to have a chance to try another fountain pen. I've been reading this blog for a bit now, and love the posts!
This is great! I'm a big fan of the site and of JetPens. Thanks for the site (and giveaway)!
Well, what a great idea. Who doesn't like free pens? Please enter me. I read you faithfully!
Please count me in.
Thank you!
Love the blog - I've been a pen/paper/notebook addict since I can remember.
Have you tried the Marvy Uchida Le Pen yet? To me, they are little pieces of heaven.
PS Thanks for introducing me to JetPens!
Can't pass up an opportunity for free pens. Great blog, I love reading the reviews!
Dude, I sooooooo want a Jetpens gift certificate. Got my eye on a few new pens (like I need them, but I've got a sickness!!!!).
Your site's awesome!
Woo, free stuff! And from JetPens, too! :-D
Yes please - thanks for holding this :)
I recently discovered your site and love it. Keep up the good work.
Big bucks, big bucks, no whammies, no whammies......
Daddy needs a new pair of shoes.
Thank you for this wonderful site... I don't feel so alone in the world now.. I have found others with the same addiction!! Thanks.. I am an addict... and I need pens...
Jet pens is an interesting site. I haven't bought from them before but I could find a few things to buy.
I like free stuff, and I love pens. (Personal favorite - Pilot G2, and an old pen of my dad's that I don't know who manufactures)
Wow, thanks for the giveaway contest. I am definitely a pen addict (along with many other shiny/cool office supplies). Good luck everyone!
I've already ordered once from JetPens, and it was because of your blog! Hope I win!
Trying to calm down about the free pens thing - and failing! :) Great idea!
I've been reading your blog for quite a while. Keep up the good work!
Keep sharing your love of pens!
Thanks for sharing with us.
I need some Jetstream refills in a bad way so $10 would be awesome. Love the site AND Jetpens!
Another addict here! Thanks for the great blog!
If you weren't giving away free pens there's no way I would have signed up for another darn account for which I won't remember the id or password! :)
Everyone loves free pens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love pens and love your reviews.
Love stationery, love your blog.
I am a lover of pens and have been following your blog for a while now! Love to win something from JetPens. :)
Thanks for offering up a contest! Looking to buy a new fountain pen, so this could definitely come in handy.
I love jetpens and I love your blog - so this giveaway is just a perfect combination of awesomeness :)
Love the site and because of you the Pilot Hi-Tec C is my new favorite pen. Have you tried Dong-a-pens, they're pretty good too. Can other pen addicts have a moment of silence for my missing pencil bag please
Hallo! :) I've been lurking on your blog for a while, and usually check your tags and archives first whenever i spot a pen I might want to try. Thank you for enabling my pen geekery!
A Sharpie Pen, A Copic .03 Multiliner (and then a whole set), and a beautiful Pure Malt leadholder. You are not helping me lessen my addiction :)
awesome site... love JetPens (my newest addiction)... who doesn't want to win free stuff?
Love it! How appropriate, I just received my first JetPens order today.
Win! Win! Win!
Great stuff! This is the first time I run the chance of actually being rewarded for being a pen addict. :)
My addiction is getting worse and worse .... thanks to this site !Thanks!
Good stuff! My wife says my biggest weakness is buying too many pens and too many books. Free is always nice.
Ooh ooh ooh-- pick me, randomizer! I love pens (especially the controversial Sharpie pen in the the lovely light blue)!
I love your blog. I'm a total pen addict!
me, me, me!
I love this site and all of your reviews! Great stuff.
jetpens is fantastic. a GC would be lovely
Free stuff is good. Free pens are BETTER!
I also just wanted to give a quick thanks for the work put into your reviews. They helped me pick out a couple of starter pens (a Sharpie Pen and some G2s) in a pen upgrade I was going through.
I look forward to reading more reviews and eventually finding that magical pen that I'll never be able to live without. Thanks!
Hey, a Jet Pens gift certificate might make me try something besides a Tul! ;-) Marilyn
I like free stuff and I like pens! This is great!
I love the Pilot VBall Extra Fine Black 0.5mm pen but I can't seem to buy those in stores anymore, so I'm on the hunt for a good replacement
Great blog, and great idea on the giveaway!
I, too, am a huge JetPens fan (as well as a huge fan of your blog). :) Crossing my fingers!
I enjoy pens.
Whoo lucky number 71!

Hey! Your site's been great, it's made me realize the greatness of quality pens.
Pick me, pick me! I'd love to finally have an excuse to make a big order from JetPens. :)

I'm a new reader but I can always use new pens! Count me in.
I really appreciate your site and have become a regular visitor. Thanks for offering this little contest.
By the way, have you considered writing about your favorite pens that may have become discontinued or hard to find? There are quite a few that I've hoarded in the past and I'm always interested to hear about others' past favorites.
I also love Jetpens!
I hope I win.
you inspired me to order pens from jetpens! i'd love a gift certificate - so I hope my number wins! :)

Please count me in, I love Pen Addict and Jet Pens. ;-)

Hi! I'm a pen addict in training, and I love this blog!
Hi, a pen addict here. And recently upgraded to fountain pens also. I really love the reviews. Hope to see more coming. Perhaps you can start on fountain pens and bottled inks. There's a whole lot more combinations involve. Fountain pen A and ink B and paper C. It'll give a different feel when you match it differently everytime. ;)
YES. :)
Love your blog, by the way.
Pens are awesome! I love Copic multiliners. :)
I love the blog, I love JetPens! Pick me!!!!! :D
Wow - who would have known there were this many of us out here??
Like you blog!
wow, the post with the most amount of replies.
you were right about the VBall RT, it is awesome, as long as you are using 20lb paper, otherwise it feels scratchy
JetPens rules.
Free stuff rocks... Thanks for the great blog.
Tasty pens.

I just found this the other day while searching for a pen I love and couldn't remember where I bought it. It is the new sharpie pen. Anyways I stumbled on a cool basement that was decorated completely by $10 worth of sharpie pens. Did you see it? katy
Your blog has turned a dormant taste into an active passion, so let's hope my collection grows out of luck!
Who doesn't want JetPens stuff? If they don't, I do!
I finally found out where to buy my favorite pen ever, the Hi-Tec-C, on your site. Thanks!!
another pen addict adding her name to the pot for consideration. Love the site, a new find to my daily blog-o-sphere. Thanks Pen Addict!
This is blog is love <3
thank you :)
Great! I just ordered a wonderful multi-pen from them (Uniball Signo MF3) and I would love to save $ when I order more!
I love you site. I do prefer fountain pens though, I must confess.
Hi -- I've become a regular reader. I love to vicariously enjoy your new JetPens shipments!
Come on randomizer, papa needs some Platinum Preppys...
I used to think there's something weird about me liking pens so much. I probably have almost a lifetime's supply I think! Glad to find like-minded people like you who share the same obsession :) Still searching for the perfect pens for exams, journaling, drawing...
Thanks!
Thanks for the informative reviews. Makes it easier to shop at JetPens!
Thanks for this giveaway and the links to the one at the Black Cover! I've been looking for a Moleskine replacement and some new pens for a while now.
Great contest, thanks for running it!
love contests and LOVE pens even more ... keep up the good work !
I have been following your blog some time, really a great resource and some great reviews to help me continue my pen addiction.
This isn't just a blog -- it's a support group! Love the reviews and everything else. Thanks!
pens = :)
Ooooo pick me!
I have probably read every one of your posts and have spent to much money on jetpens because of you. I think I found your blog through moleskinerie.
Aah, a giveaway. That's awesome. =) I love your blog.
This is the only blog site I keep up with these days. Keep up the good work Pen Addict! =D
No more entries after this point.
Thanks to everyone who entered! I will have the winners posted sometime tomorrow, hopefully in the morning.
I would love to win that gift certificate. I am looking to get a couple of Pilot pens from jetpens and this would just seal the deal
