This contest will be closed for submissions at 11:59pm est on Saturday 7 January 2012 and the winners will be announced no later than 14 January.
First off the prize:
Three winners who will each receive $150 store credit to their local card shop.
I am fronting $300 of my own money and FCB is adding in another $150. Thanks Gilmore!!!
Details:
- Go to your local card shop and buy anything. Even if you only spend $5 that is fine, but id like it to be at least $5. After you do this take a picture of yourself outside of your card shop with the item you purchased and make sure the name of the shop is visible in the picture. Or if you're friends with the owner or shop worker take a pic of you and them in front of the store. Dont be shy if you can only get a pack of cards or something, the whole point of this is to support your local shop and every dollar counts. The amount you spend has no effect on your chances of winning.
- Take this picture and upload it into this thread along with all the details of the shop. Shop name, owner name, address, and phone number. Ill explain why later.
- Also in your post i want you to write a little bit about your shop. A minimum of 3 sentences. Everything you know about the shop, how long you've been shopping there. Your favorite thing about the shop, best pull, things you dont like, etc. There is no limit to how much you can write about your shop and i will be reading every single post.
- Only one submission per person per shop. So if you happen to have three shops near you then you can submit 3 times, one for each shop. And members only please. Dont be taking a pic of yourself and submitting, then taking a pic of your 6 year old kid in front of the shop and submit them too. Integrity people.
If you are close with your shop owner or are not shy about talking to them please let them know about this contest because if you are selected as the winner ill be contacting them and it will be easier when talking with them.
How it will work: After the contest is closed there will be three winners randomly selected. What will then happen is i will post who the winners are and pm each of you to request your first and last name. I will then contact the shop you posted and explain to the worker about the contest and that one of their customers won. (Hopefully you explained the contest to them already and it will make it easier.) I will then coordinate with the shop owner that i am purchasing $150 store credit for the winner (thats why i need your full name). I will coordinate payment with the shop and once the transaction is complete i will pm the winner that they can go to their shop and claim their store credit.
The reason i am not just sending paypal to the winner is because they will end up not spending at their shop and that would defeat the purpose of this contest.
best of luck to everyone who enters.
Any questions please feel free to send me a pm.
