Participation Requirements

Free.  No Purchase Necessary!

Winning prizes in our contest is easy.  We are going to be following a Ticket System where you can earn multiple Tickets for the contest by helping us spread the word about our new site.

Contest Date

Our contest runs until September 15th.  All tickets must be earned prior to 11:59pm (PST) – September 15th, 2009 to be eligible.  Prizes will be drawn shortly thereafter.

How Prizes Will Be Selected

Each ticket you earn into the contest will be assigned a number.  At the end of the contest, we will randomly select a number for each prize in the contest.  The person assigned to that number wins the prize.

How to Earn Tickets

There are multiple ways you can earn ticket in our contest.  The more tickets you earn, the higher your chances of winning.  Throughout the contest, we will be updating our subscribers with additional ways they can earn tickets, as well as updating them on additional prizes we add to the contest.

All tickets will be verified.  No cheating! :)

Contest open to participants in North America only.  Sorry, shipping costs outside of North America often end up costing more than the prizes themselves and some prizes (ie. DVD etc.) only work in North America.

Although we don’t have any intention to do so, we reserve the right to change or modify contest rules at any time, and add/withdraw/exchange prizes based on availability.
