DUM-roll please....

Today is my 1 year blogiversary! I think people celebrate blogiversaries for the sole purpose because it is such a great excuse for a giveaway... at least that is what I think.
So, for my "great excuse for a giveaway" day, I will be celebrating with a whole-lotta DUM DUMS!!! Guess how many Dum-Dums are in this jar....
Leave a comment with your guess... and feel free to leave a little extra just to make my day. :o)
The first person to guess exactly how many dum-dums that are in the jar or is the closest to the number of dum-dums in the jar wins this...
Contest ends Friday, August 28, 2009 at midnight. Winner will be announced on Monday, August 31. Good Luck!

    Someone actually taught me a formula for guesstimating something like this, but I hate math so I promptly forgot it. Oh well, maybe Lady Luck is all I need! ;) Wouldn't it be something to win your giveaway twice?!
