Ready…Set…GO!
The table below lets you know when each of the 50 sites in the HP Magic Giveaway will be conducting their individual contests.
Worth noting are that from November 28 through December 16 there will be a certain number of sites a day going live with their rules, and from December 4 through December 22 there will be a certain number of sites a day announcing winners.
It is going to be pretty darn difficult to keep up with every site, but at least you’ll have one week to enter each contest. We’ll do our best to feature the three sites and their individual rules as they go live each day, and of course you all will want to mark December 4th on your calendars – as that is the day Gear Diary will start our giveaway.
Are you ready? ![]()
