[Prizes for Prices - Rules and Regulations]

Greetings, citizens!

The time has come to resurrect a mighty favourite!! You’ve seen the books waiting patiently on Facebook and Twitter. Now we’re lining up even more, and you could catch them a day before the public…if you can guess how much they cost.

The rules are simple. Every week, we post three books, and their recommended retail prices. You comment with the total price for all 3 books at the Big Bad Wolf Book Sale. And because it’s our first week, today the team crowns 20 randomly selected winners!

(Remember that all comments are moderated and they may not show up at first–but we’re reading all of them!)

Keep your wits about you! Here are your books for this week…

The Super Monstrous Book Sale Returns!

Greetings, citizens of Malaysia! I am Black Paw, lieutenant to the Big Bad Wolf and in charge of online questions and contests.

The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale has heroically returned, and our supercharged team is ready to bring you more low-priced books! The Wolf is out to save your wallets from destruction, and destroy the evil of high book prices!

This year, from 7 to 23 December, we are bringing you double the books of 2011: 3 million books await you at Wolf Base Alpha, where the wolf is plotting all sorts of heroics. Our location, however, must remain secret for just a while longer. A hero never reveals all his secrets—not at once!

With every sale come contests for our super-coveted Big Bad Wolf preview passes! These heroic items grant two people access to our preview sale, one day before everyone else. And I want you to win them all! Keep watching this blog for more contests and giveaways.

A word of caution: This blog has moderated comments, so your comments may not show up right away. But please know that we are reading and counting them all…unless you are a force of evil. Then we hope the Wolf eats you. But otherwise, thank you for your patience and understanding!

I will see you all again with a new contest coming very, very soon.

See you at the Super Monstrous Book Sale!
Your humble scribe,
Black Paw.
