The Great Canadian Book Giveaway

by Mike on February 4, 2009

Please note that the contest is now CLOSED!

Time for another big book giveaway – this time we have a number of books by Canadian authors (except one) and will be giving them away to several lucky Canadians.

Rules:

You can enter two ways (do both for 2 entries):

  1. Leave a comment on this post.
  2. Get the secret phrase from the end of the RSS feed or the email feed and email it to qffpillars at gmail dot com.

The RSS feed is a great way to follow several blogs – instead of going each blog hoping for a new post, you can just go to your reader page and it will have all the blogs newest posts ready for you to read.  This is a great explanation of the RSS feed.

The email feed is a good way to follow a small number of blogs – just subscribe by email and all new posts will be in your email inbox.

To subscribe by RSS feed then click here.

To subscribe by email then enter your email in the “Receive free email updates” box to your upper left.

I will accept entries until this Saturday, Feb 7 at 8:00pm EST.

Please note – this giveaway is limited to Canadian residents.

The books

New Rules of Retirement by Warren MacKenzie and Ken Hawkins – I thought is was an excellent retirement planning book.

Money For Nothing by Derek Foster – Mr. Cheap thought this was a worthwhile read.  He wrote a review along with an author interview.

The RRSP Book by fellow blogger Preet Banerjee – I did a review of this book and thought it was quite good.

Findependance Day by Jon Chevreau – Mr. Cheap wasn’t impressed but Preet thought it was worth reading.

Your Money and Your Brain by Jason Zweig – I thought this book was excellent and Mr. Cheap thought it was pretty good.  Zweig isn’t Canadian however one of our favourite readers (Nicolas) donated it for the giveaway so I thought I’d make an exception.

Thanks a lot to the various authors for donating the books and in some cases paying for the shipping.
