<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong><em>(Edited to add:  the giveaway is now closed ... I'll be announcing the winner later today, January 31st!)</em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">TGIF, everyone!  Okay, raise your hand if you love Kirkland's.  Okay, now raise your hand if you'd love a chance to win a $50 gift card from Kirkland's.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Imagine my surprise when, last week, a representative from Kirkland's Home Decor contacted me to ask if I'd be willing to review one of their new lamps on my blog, as well as offer one of my sweet readers a $50 gift card to Kirkland's!  Of course, I said yes and *patiently* waited for the lamp to arrive!</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, yesterday, this gorgeous "</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Metallic Mercury Glass Table Lamp" (which is 29" tall and retails for $59.99), was waiting for me at our front door:</span><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
