STEEM drops below 40 cents... time for a morale booster!
I've been meaning to do a good giveaway for a while now, and with the recent drop in crypto in general, now seems like a good time. Before I go any further, I just made this giveaway with things I had laying around, so there is a lot of "papa-pepper" stuff. I'm not that great or special, but many steemians have seemed to enjoy me, so a variety of "papa-pepper stuff" will be included, but there are some really special things in here as well... all for free!
THE PRIZE PACK!!!!
Save the best for last? I don't think so! Let's start with what this giveaway is really about. Regardless of the "value" of STEEM, the steemit community is priceless, and don't you forget it! This is a 2017 and a 2018 STEEM Silver Round, which is a real testimony to what we can accomplish together! With the help of @sevinwilson and many other steemians, we have not only minted our own custom 1 oz Silver Rounds once, but twice!
With only 1500 of these minted each year, this may be your only opportunity to pick one up from each year, without spending a ton of money. One blessed steemian who replies to this post with receive this entire prize package, including both of these STEEM Silver Rounds!
Up next are these two items, which I am pleased to be able to add to this prize package. Both are actually the last ones of each kind that I have to give away. The "steemit" bracelet was custom made on the streets of Mexico during a trip we took down. I thought there were some steemians who would appreciate owning their own steemit-wear, and many have enjoyed them so far. Unless I have more made in the future, this'll be the last one that I ever give away!
The other item in the photo above is a deck of Permaculture Playing Cards that @em3 sent me. Actually, he sent me several packs to bless other steemians with, and this is the last one that I've got to give away. Many steemians know how into homesteading I am, and permaculture can play a big role in building a proper homestead. These cards not only have a ton of good information on them, they also work for playing card games!
I'll also include a steemit trading card featuring yours truly. This wasn't my idea, but instead a brainchild of @kus-knee.
@Airmatti was the designer who won the contest that @kus-knee created, and now many more steemians have also been featured on these incredible cards. I'll have to pick up some sets to give away in the future, but for now I've just got a couple of my own laying around, so I'll toss one in for the winner.
I've got some of these prints on hand as well that feature artwork from a number of different steemians plus a "Papa-pepper" shirt as well. These were mostly tribute artwork that people gifted me with, so I decided to find a few creative ways to use them and share with others.
Just like the relationships that I make online, I like taking digital artwork and bringing it out into the "real world" as well. I'm not sure if anyone would actually want a shirt featuring my ugly mug on it, but if you win, you'll at least have the option to sport it if you want to!
And... just so you don't overlook your package, it'll feature this "special delivery" logo on it as well. This is another crazy-cool steemit community infused piece of incredible-ness thanks to @doctorcrypto. @Doctorcrypto is one of those amazing steemians that I hope to meet in person one day who's been blessed by various packages from me before, mostly ghost peppers that I harvested from my own garden and shipped out to some other steemians.
In the video above, I end up almost literally floored because all I was expecting was some Ghost Salt that @doctorcrypto made with the peppers that I shipped him, but instead I received the amazing blessing of a hand-crafted "Papa-Pepper Special Delivery" block for block printing. You see, it's things like this and steemians like this that make this community more than 30 cent STEEM, or $5 STEEM, or even 7 cent STEEM could ever affect.
And now, it's my turn to bless once again. Steemians, you've got a week. Once this post pays out, the contest will be over and no one will be able to enter after that point. How do you enter? Good question, I'm glad that you asked. Do you have to upvote this post? Nope, not even close. In fact, you can even flag this post if you want and still be entered! Do you have to resteem this post? Again, no, but it would help more steemians be able to enter this contest, so that's your choice.
All you have to do to enter is leave a comment to this post before it pays out.
Honestly, any reply counts as an entry, but you may only comment once. If you want to tell me what a loser I am, you could win! If you want to beg me to upvote and follow you, you could win! If you leave some strange message that doesn't make sense because of a translator program, you could win!
What do I care? I just want to bless the steemit community, give you all an opportunity, and help make steemit all that it can be! Anyway, let me know if you're interested. This prize pack will be shipped for free to some steemian out there. Reply if you'd like an opportunity to have it be you.
STEEM ON MY FRIENDS!

We'll see who wins! Thanks for entering!
Epic GIVEAWAY Package! I want the silver coins, even if I dont win, is there a website to go to to purchase those with Crypto? or FIAT even. SO much great stuff haha, congrats to the winner in advance!
Some people may still have some for sale. Last I knew prices were through the roof, $50 USD plus or so per round... personally, I consider them priceless, which is why I give them away periodically without a price.
How is $50USD compare to the market price for silver? Cant imagine it's too terribly overpriced, I'd be willing to pay just for the awesomeness of it having the steem logo on it. I'd carry it in my pocket, lol.

I think Silver is around $15 USD right now, last I checked it was just under.
Ok, that is steep, lol. Still. Keepsake, priceless.

I was looking to sell a few of the extra 2018 rounds if you were still interested. I know this is way past the time this post was put out, but I am asking $40 a coin and that includes shipping in the US. Thanks
Yeah I want one for sure!

That is a super cool give away! I won't officially enter because of everything you and your family provided me which I'm super thankful for! Someone is going to be super stoked!
Oops, you commented. Didn't you read the rules?
Hahhaha, Awww man.... just by commenting even saying I was bowing out entered me? LOL
That "will be shipped for free" might cost you more than the prize it self, if i win...
But i don't know how to retreat from the contest after submitting the comment. haha

The world would be a better place to live if just 20% of kind heart people like you lives. Thanks much papa, may God bless you as you always help steemians

Thanks @bubke! You're entered!
Ooooh! Glad to have found the fun zone! Awesome contest, some fun prizes in this lot! Yeeee owww! Steem on friends!!
I'm glad you found it too! STEEM ON!
Maybe this time lucky??
Maybe!
love to win a @papapepper sunglass too,
It will definitely make me look as badass and fearless as you are.
LOL - I'll have to consider that in a future contest!
Yipi, Awesome!!!
Pappa Pepper I am only an old lady that read and love your posts everyday.
My voting power is so low that it is not worth anything.
I vote you everyday on weku as that is where I have some voting power. My heart is broken as my favourite steemit is not really paying how hard we try it is not working.
We were very blessed when it did because pensioners pension does not go up. :-) I am not begging for a vote if it looks like it, but I just love your posts. You put a lot of hard work in and the fact that you love your family so much is the most important to me.
Have a wonderful Sunday and may you be blessed for all you do. @bigbear out
Thanks @bigbear! Glad to hear that there is something about my posts that you enjoy!
🐼
A panda head? That counts! You're entered!
The panda community of Steemit applauses your efforts towards inclusivity! Tales of your fine giveaway shall be engraved on the oldest and most venerable bamboo stalks.
Excellent, that's on my bucket list!
Wow, what an awesome giveaway! Definitely a great way to help with some moral around here. :) Count me in
You are counted in! Thanks man!
Those Perma cards are kool!
Yeah, I really like the deck that I have, and many have been impressed by them!
What a great morale booster this is @papa-pepper. This will certainly help many of us stay engaged. Those coins look super but to have intertionally shipped here will be too costly for you. Thanks for this contest for entry here.
Too costly? Not in the least. Whichever steemian wins will be worth whatever the shipping price is!
Awesome giveaway !
I'd be happy to add to my collection, given I'm about to send off my second 2018 round to a lucky #monsterrafflethree winner 😜
In any case, it's super of you to do this, and good luck to everyone here who enters !!
