Christmas Contest: Guess the number of Candy Canes and win Penzeys Gift pack!!!

Actually, you have to guess the number of candy canes I came up with, as I am not positive of the exact answer. The member & the Mod guessing closest to my number without going over wins a Penzeys Gift pack. In the case of a tie, the earliest entry wins. To be eligible all guesses MUST be posted in this thread only.


You can guess once a day every day until Christmas eve. The winner will be announced Christmas day.

Glad to see some of you playing. Just in case you didn't notice this is a little different than other contests we've had. You can guess once a day. So you have 10 guesses if you take advantage of each day. They day coincides with the date so you get a guess for every calendar day. Midnight to midnight in your time zone.

I hope to see more folks guessing.

I wrote down the numbers and somehow got the dates off sync when I retyped them.

I'll redo the list.

Sorry,

Jim
