Please use the Halloween Brag Basket

By Small Biz Survival

Please, use a basket

Please, use the brag basket for your good news. Photo (CC) by Jay Cox on Flickr. 

The Brag Basket is open! This one is for October 31-Nov 2, 2014. Bring your good news to share with everyone.

What can you do in the Brag Basket?

  • introduce yourself
  • share some great news from this week
  • congratulate a friend
  • applaud for each other
  • confess your undying love for rural places

How do you join in?

Below this post is the comment section. Add your good news there.
If you are reading this by email, just reply to the email with your good news. I’ll add it to the comments.

Don’t like to brag? Just share some good news for yourself or a friend.

Just don’t make it an ad. I delete the ads that people stick in here. If you talk more about the people involved than the things, you’ll be fine.

It’s a conversation with friends. So jump in. And remember to cheer for each other.

    We moved from Los Angeles about 5 years ago. It’s getting cold outside, we love it! Might even rain, we love it! Just met with some really nice people, we love it! Looking forward to people coming over tonight to hand out candy from our porch. It’s going to be a great evening with friends. Living in a small town is the best! Living 1,500 miles from Disneyland….. well, nothing is perfect.

Why do people say there’s nothing to do here then not come to our concerts?
