The Broke Student GIVEAWAY!

So I've been wanting to do a giveaway for a while. It's what blogs do, you know, when they have ~sponsors~ and such to give them free things to give away and it gets them all sorts of attention and whatnot. Well, good for them. I don't have any sponsors, and I haven't sold any advertising to anyone. Plus, I'm broke (you might have guessed). So I didn't know what on earth I was going to give away.

Then, it hit me. I've amassed quite a collection of stuff that I've gotten for free, and there's quite a lot of it that I just haven't used and probably won't use. So, I figured, why not give some of it away to you, my readers? I put together a collection of brand new, unused, unopened, 100% awesome stuff that I got entirely for free (not from a sponsor, just from the stuff I share in the blog with you!) and I'm going to be giving it away to 1 lucky reader. (Don't worry - with the amount of free stuff I obtain, more giveaways will absolutely occur in the future!)

Sure, whatever, it's not a $100 cookware set, or a Coach bag, but you know what? This is the Broke Student's Guide, and I'm a broke student. Maybe it's not the most amazing thing ever to be given away. But hey! When you win, you can brag to all of your friends about all the stuff you got for free. So that's cool. Also, I'm giving away a LOT of it. So there's that. Here are the goodies you'll receive:
