Oh man!! Today didn’t come fast enough for me. I was a little antsy to say the least but the day has come. FINALLY!

Last year, J Money and I decided to bring Enemy of Debt and Budgets Are Sexy together for something truly awesome! The economy was broken, unemployment was high, and we wanted to help. Brad & J’s 1st Annual Christmas Stimulus 2009 was born!

Last year was awesome! We gave away $150 each and had a great time doing it! Two blogs, two giveaways, two winners, $300!

We are extremely happy to announce the second coming. The most personal giveaway ever, because it’s from us to you, not from some advertising partner with a new gadget to sell!

Brad & J’s 2010 Christmas Stimulus has arrived!!

I’ve got good news and I’ve got bad news! The bad news is that we’re not giving away $150 this year. Nope, can’t do it.

The good news is that we’ll be giving away $200 a piece instead! That’s right, we are giving away $400 this year!

We are going to be doing it a little bit different this year because we want to spread the love a little further. We’ve decided to break the stimulus up into $50 gifts. Between us both, eight of you have a chance to win $50 each!! All you have to do is follow the directions below to enter into TOTAL AWESOMENESS and be eligible to win!

You can buy presents, pay a bill, eliminate some debt, or even save it. It’s up to you!

You don’t have to be down on your luck to enter either, this is for everybody! And noooo — this isn’t “stimulus for the rich” either — I have an idea. 😉

If you are doing well for yourself right now, help someone else out with this gift. If you’re doing really well, you probably aren’t reading this blog but if you are, take this gift and match it, double it, quadruple it if you want. There’s no limit!

This is about giving or as I like to call “paying it forward.” Have you ever watched that movie? I absolutely love that movie. I believe it is possible. It’s also why I am stoked about Love Drop! (J Money and Nate St Pierre teamed up to make a difference and I’ll be hanging along for the ride. Go see what they’re doing!)

But this one is for you! Make sure you enter to win and we hope you all have a very Merry Christmas in 2010!!
