A $50 Gift Certificate to Victoria’s Secret

We spent a long time thinking about if we should try a giveaway and decided why not? Let’s give this a try. So we researched giveaways. There’s a lot of them out there, especially on blogs. And often, there’s a lot you have to do to enter a contest. So, as usual, we felt like we had to be different.

First, what do we give away that represents the essence of the Anonymous8? We wanted it to be something that women could pamper themselves with or that men could pamper their women with. It had to be easily transmittable (ie we will email you the gift certificate). So, after some searching, we ended up choosing Victoria’s Secret, because the name needs no introduction, and everyone can find something there, even if it’s perfume (instead of something slinky that may not fit).

Now, the rules:

We going to keep it simple. Here’s what we want. We want your comments, on any or every post. That’s it. Leave a comment somewhere on this site.

But there’s a catch. (There’s always a catch.) We have to choose one comment, so we will pick the best one. Best could mean most humorous or most enlightening, and with the subject matter on this site, that could be really creative or eye-opening.

That’s good news for you. You probably have a better chance of winning this than any other contest on the web, because we are so new.

So, leave your comments. And realize that they are moderated before they are made public (with this content, we gotta do that).

What You Don’t Have to Do

You do NOT have to follow us on Twitter (unless you want to – don’t get me wrong, it would be appreciated – www.twitter.com/a8forwomen).

You do NOT have to sign up for our email list (unless you want to – it’s that box on the right sidebar, by the way – hint, hint).

You do NOT have to sell your children to us (not that we would buy them).

You do NOT have to Tweet about this contest (although the button is below if you felt so inclined).

You do NOT have to post this contest on your site (unless you want to).

You do NOT have to become our fan on facebook (unless you want to, which we wouldn’t mind either).

Don’t worry, you’ll have to do some of these things later on.

(This is really an experiment to see if people act like teens and actually do things when they are told they don’t have to…)

More Rules

Eligible posts begin as soon as this post hits and need to be submitted by 10pm cst Tuesday, March 23rd. Winner announced at 9am central standard time on March 24th, with their comment, of course.

PS If I know you in real life, you cannot win. But you can still leave a comment. Or 6.
