Free to Promote Your Shop, Social Sites, or Blog; on Networking Saturday 29

At the end of this informational post you will find a button where you will be able to link all of your social networking, shops, and blogs.  Please scroll all the way down for this great opportunity.  It looks like this:

With the Holiday Shopping Season just days away I am going to focus my attention on all the opportunities that I have used and found to be successful.  There are so many methods of marketing for free but sometimes just finding them is the hard part.  So I would love it if you would post the links to promos, parties, etc that you have found to be successful using the Form.  If they are your own promotion then please also add them to the link up.  Many of these are repeated every week so please come back to this reference and join in the marketing fun often!

Christie Cottage has several promotions that you will be able to participate in
