Take a Survey & Win Starbucks

Hey, friends!!  It's been a great week at our house.  We are all thrilled to have a three day weekend together.  Olive has been asking for longer weekends since school started so her wish is coming true this week.

I have been busy working on my Fall blog calendar and wanted to check in with you.  I am going to be blogging four days a week and I'm curious...

What do you want to read on Polka-Dotty Place in the coming months??


**** I'll randomly pick one winner from the comments for a $5 Starbucks gift card.  Be sure to add your email address to your comment so I can contact you****



1. Tell me something about YOU - stage of life, where do you live, your job, number of kids, pets??

2. What are your favorite posts to read here?

3. Do you have any blog post suggestions?  Or questions you want me to answer?

4. What type of shopping posts do you get excited about?  Aldi, Amazon, Target, Dollar Tree, etc.?

I love writing content for this space and excited to hear from you all.

Hope you have a great weekend :)  We're SUPER pumped to kick off the college football season.  We're hoping for a big win to start the Notre Dame season.  See you back here on Tuesday!

  3. Hello! I think you know this, but I work in corporate America in the St. Louis area! My favorite posts are anything about food, and your hauls from shopping. I actually picked up some pumpkins from Dollar Tree after seeing one of your posts - I would have never thought to check there! Enjoy the long weekend!

  4. Well, I'm a big fan of your blog so this is easy! :) I'm married with no kids, work part time and live in South Carolina with two cats. I love your posts on party planning, money saving tips, kids gift guides (super helpful for niece and nephew gifts since I don't have kids), meal plan ideas, outfit posts - I just really like the variety you have! The only shopping posts I'm not excited about are Amazon, only because I don't have prime and rarely shop Amazon. I think a DITL or a "photo every hour" type post would be fun! <3 - Whitney @ comehomeforcomfort@gmail.com

  6. Hello! I'm from Germany. I'm married and mom to a 17 month old boy. I'm a Kindergarten teacher but at the moment I stay home with my boy. I think I'm reading your blog for almost 3 years now, but it's hard for me to comment in English. My favorite posts are about artwork with your kids and the fun kids meals you are doing. I also like the random chitchat about your life.
    I admire how you manage to write four blog posts a week with two children. My last Post was in May, in the moment I cannot find the time for writing. You are doing a great job

  18. Still wanted to chime in even though contest is over. No kids or pets here so love to watch Olive and Fletcher growing up. I've run to Walmart a couple times lately to get the tops you showcase, the white/fall print with tier ruffles and the checked sleeveless peplums. Love them! Love your raspberry ice cream recipe from 2 years ago. You are so creative. Thanks for all the reads.
