700/800 Subscriber Giveaway Update!

Hey everyone-
So I promised at 700 subscribers to do a giveaway, but shortly after hitting that goal I did some research and found some sites online that say that only Youtube Partners can do giveaways, otherwise you risk your account being taken down. It even says this in the Youtube handbook- but I've seen plenty of gurus on Youtube that aren't partners do giveaways. So...what gives? If anyone knows anything about this topic, PLEASE let me know on twitter, Youtube, or my Youtube email: Everything.Elle@yahoo.com because otherwise I'm really just stuck on what to do! I really need to keep my promise, and I have everything picked out and ready to go for the giveaway, but I really don't want to risk it!

My other issue is that I don't know what to put for a return address. I don't want my own address on there, but there's really nothing else you can do that would cooperate with the post offices! I've asked many of my guru friends and they say that either a) for sponsored giveaways the companies send the products themselves [however, mine isn't sponsored so that's not an option!], b) their family members shipped it for them, or c) they used their own address and had no problems, but I still feel shaky about that.

It is really important that I get parental permission before doing the giveaway, so I'm sorry for the delay but I really need to get past these issues before I can make the giveaway video! Please let me know if you have a solution for either of them, that would really help me out(:

In the meantime...thank you all SO much for 800 subscribers! That is so amazing and I'm so grateful that my viewers can help me to reach my goals. Please continue to support me and let me know what videos you would like to see!

Until later,
Elle <3
