Hi guys! Well I'm checking out my channel lately and I find that I'm now at 494 subscribers as of this minute and it goes up and down every day every week. But I've decided like I'm pretty close to 500 which is a milestone. What I've decided to do is once I become stable at 500 like it won't go below 500 anymore I'm gonna do a giveaway and what I'm gonna do is give away well I'm gonna give away these bracelets that I make out of paracord. I figured I don't know if I give some of these away as a gift be all right some of them are belia. But what I'm gonna do is give five of them away to five lucky subscribers. So what I'm gonna do instead of giving them away to just any any old subscribers and making a random choice. What I'll do is if you put in the comments that you'd like to be part of the giveaway put your name in the in the list for a winner. I will put your name on the list and I will make five choices from those ones that want to actually receive one of these bracelets and put me over the 500 mark as a gift for the milestone of the 500 subscribers which is phenomenal to me. I just started actually YouTube to put out videos for myself so that I could sit back and watch where I've been what I've been doing for the last however long it's been in May it was one year anniversary for me in that living in the van and being retired so that's June, July, August that's three months so it's been 15 months of living in a van and I'm up to 500 subscribers or just close to. So if you'd like your name to be in the draw just please put in the comments that you'd you'd like to be in the draw and for the prizes I'll draw five of them so that you're not up against just subscribers that don't actually watch my videos no sense giving prizes to people that just don't watch they just subscribe and that's that's all they do. I want to give them away to people that actually watch my videos and are worthy of winning a prize. So like I said the prizes are these they're going to be bracelets I'll take your what if you are a winner I'll have to get your your address your mailing address and get your wrist size and then what colors you'd like and what design you'd like so I know what to what to make and and whether they're going to be a buckle on the end like these ones or a loop and not type then and you get to pick your colors one two three colors and wrist size so that least I know they fit. When I sell them online I sell only like four different sizes small medium large and extra large I have a website coming out shortly with my bracelets on them and not necessarily they're I don't make just only bracelets I I do belts hatbands dog and cat colors zipper poles um manures key fobs just a multitude of things that you can do with the with the paracord it's not the survival paracord it is the survival paracord but it's not meant to be used as a survival kit where you undo the knots and you you end up with you have seven eight nine ten feet of of paracord that you can use out in the woods yeah you can if you want to but they're not a quick release paracord bracelet they're they're meant for for beauty and for just wearing on your on your wrist so I'll have some of these that I'm going to give away to five like I said five lucky people that actually watch my videos and that would like to participate and to be put in the draw so in the in the comments below of any video that you see from from now on uh put your in the comment that you'd like to be in the draw and it might be because my bounce up and down all the time it might be one week it might be a couple of days it might be a month before I get to 500 and then once I just get to 500 I'm not going to have the the contest right away because uh because I do go up and down uh one day I'm at 500 in the next day I'm at 495 again like drops by five I want to be stable at 500 so like 500 from then on uh once I get like say five oh five or something and I don't go below 500 anymore that's when I'll post that I'm going to make the draw and I'll let you know how many people are actually entered in for the draw so that you know what kind of uh odds you have and then I'll do the the the draw live on on camera wow this live is what you're going to get uh I don't uh I don't live stream anyways um if you'd like your name to put it be put in uh the list for the draw please put in the comments that you'd like to have your name in the draw and then when I do make the draw be prepared that if you do win you're going to have to give me or your mailing address so I can mail it out to you I guess if it's overseas or what have you like I have quite a few followers from overseas um I guess I'm just going to have to uh fork out whatever money it is to cost to to ship these things to you because it is a free um uh give away and it's a wonderful milestone for me 500 subscribers is a phenomenal I've never knew I was going to even get a hundred let alone 500 that's a great accomplishment for me and I appreciate each and every one of my subscribers mostly the ones that actually do come out and watch my videos like thank you very much like it's it's it's just awesome uh I appreciate it very very much and I do have some really loyal followers subscribers that watch every single one of my videos and I in turn watch uh their videos and keep keep them posted and comment and like every one of their their videos and they do the same for me so uh if you haven't already subscribed please do so uh like share thumbs up so uh stay tuned for upcoming videos I I hope to keep each and every one of my subscribers uh uh on the edge so that when I do put out a new video they're they're they're they like what they're watching and uh click the little bell up in the corner up there so that uh you you'll be notified when the next one comes up and comes along so okay guys uh stay tuned and uh we'll catch you on the next one and thanks for subscribing guys
