FREE MONEY and T-SHIRTS over at the Section J Blog. Answer trivia and win!
Congratulation to Fred who won and chose the coffe cup option on the second contest. By virtue of the Jedi mind trick, Mike also won a t-shirt. Congrats fellas! Here’s the last contest. No Star Wars.
Contest #3: May the Force be with you.
All you need to do to qualify to win in this last contest is comment “Happy birthdayâ€, or some friendly form of it. Say it in another language if you like. I’ll do a random drawing of all comments and choose 4 comments as winners: 3 t-shirt winners as runners-up, and $50 and a t-shirt for the grand prize lucky commenter. Easiest money you’ll make all year! One comment per blog, and I’ll close the contest on Sunday so this will be open all weekend for late arrivals. Just think, $50 for commenting on a blog. Good luck everyone and thanks for your wishes in advance.
