Well, folks, after some lengthy tabulation of comments, bonus entries, and the random-number-generating power of Random.org, we have a winner!
Receiving the grand prize of a LeapFrog Tag Reader System and Two Books, the winner of Blog Salad’s First Ever Giveaway Contest is:
Johna Latimer of North Canton, OH
In case anyone was wondering, Johna is one of the very few contestants who gave a $1 donation to charity—and her donation to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital was the winning entry!
So there you have it, folks—instant karma really is gonna get you. 
Congratulations, Johna, and thanks to everyone else for playing. Hope to see you digging into the Blog Salad again real soon!
How do I claim my prize? Thank you so much I can say that I have Actually won something.
