Fab Freebie: Gone Fishing

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Our two lucky winners as selected by random.org are… Susie (who doesn’t like fish, despite her former employment at Red Lobster) and Sarah (who especially loves Maryland crab, shrimp, salmon, and freshly caught smoked trout). Congrats ladies!

Back when I lived in Brooklyn there was this cool dishware store down the street called Fishs Eddy that I loved. Last Christmas I even bought Sherry two coffee mugs from there. And now, in what can only be called a full circle moment, we’re teaming up with them for a giveaway for you guys. They’ve got tons of fun colorful patterns so we’ve put together three around-$50 prize packages of our favorites: the Food Bank pattern (which benefits the NYC Food Bank), the always-classic 212 New York Skyline pattern, and the playful Charley Harper pattern. So each of our TWO winners will get to pick their favorite collection and take it home.

Fishs Eddy Giveaway

  • PRIZE: One of the following sets of Fishs Eddy dishware: (1) Food Bank set including dishtowel, two mugs, and a set of four sauce dishes, (2) New York Skyline set including salt & pepper shakers, a charger, and a set of four 15oz glasses or (3) Charley Harper set including one fish mug, three fish sauce dishes, and a set of four sunset glasses
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FISH ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …where do you stand on seafood? Have you never met a piece of salmon, fried shrimp, or crabcake you didn’t like? Or do you avoid fish like the plague (perhaps because it tastes “too fishy” or you’re a vegetarian)? Maybe you fall somewhere in the middle and only enjoy specific seafood dishes?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 5 at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States & Canada (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • 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…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Fishs Eddy.

    I’ve only recently started eating seafood in the last year. So far I like fish n’ chips. But then again anything fried tastes good.

    I love love love seafood. But only until recently. Growing up, my grandparents lived on Cape Cod and I refused to eat seafood. As an adult my husband convinced me to try it again and now I can’t get enough – boy did I miss out!

    I love most seafoods…except clams, oysters, and scallops, it’s gotta be something to do with texture. Papaya is a no go for me for that reason too. Blech!

    Thanks for the adorable giveaway :)

    I grew up in a small fishing village on an island so I LOVE all kinds of seafood, but am also very snobby about freshness so you won’t find me buying any in the frozen food aisle. Fresh caught this morning? I’m in! Frozen fish sticks? No way!

    Although I live in land-locked New Mexico, fresh fish is one of my all time favorite foods. I guess, instead of salmon, I’ll have to make due with stream caught trout…

    FISH ME!

    I love seafood but only eat it if I catch it myself (or personally know the person who does) because commercial fishing practices are so damaging to the environment and have enormous amounts of bycatch (i.e., fish that are killed but not consumed and therefore die for no reason).

    I absolutely love seafood. Back when I lived in Northern VA, I ate it frequently. But now that I’m out in the middle of nowhere KY, I don’t get to have it very often.
