Business Card Giveaway Sponsored by UPrinting.com

UPDATE: Winners have been selected and have received their codes for free business cards!  Congrats!

 

It’s time for another giveaway folks!  This time around, we’ve got an awesome giveaway from the folks at UPrinting.com.  If you’ve never heard of UPrinting, maybe it’s time you checked them out.  BusinessCards.org recently performed a faceoff of sorts and UPrinting scored pretty well.  3rd for Overall and 1st for cheapest cards.  In their notes, they said that UPrinting delivered sturdy cards with good packaging and quick shipping.  And, now, you have a chance to win some to test them out for yourself!  Let’s get down to the details.

There will be two winners, and each will be able to pick from one of the two following packages:

250 Die-Cut Business Cards

  • 250 Die-Cut Business cards
  • 1.75” x 3.5”, 2” x 3.5”, or 2” x 2”; 2.5” Diameter (Circle)
  • Die Cut Business Cards (Rounded Corners, Leaf, Rounded Single-Corner, Half-Circle Side, Circle)
  • 14pt Cardstock Gloss / Matte / High Gloss (UV), or 13pt Cardstock Uncoated

25 Business Card Magnets

  • 25 Card Magnets
  • 2” x 3.5”

How you can win one of these awesome packages:

Entry into the giveaway is super duper easy.  You get one entry for subscribing to this blog.  If you already are a subscriber, that makes it that much more easy for you.  If you aren’t a subscriber, there’s a box at the top right of the sidebar with several options for you.  You can grab the RSS by clicking on the smallish orange box there and adding the RSS to your favorite RSS aggregator, or you can enter your email into the box there and click the subscribe button.  (Your email is safe with me, feedburner administrates that stuff and has pretty good security).  You can earn a second entry for following me on twitter (@thatedeguy) and retweeting the tweet below:

HP Magic Giveaways Day 1

So, today starts the giveaways for the HP Magic giveaway spectacular.  (They should be paying me for doing all this advertising, but they aren’t)  There are three sites that are starting their giveaways today.  There’s a calendar for when all 50 are going live if you’re interested.

The three going live today are:

  • Bleeping Computer.  Relatively easy to enter.  Register for forums, fill out a form and agree to their rules.  Easy rules, basically saying you won’t sell items and you have to give away some of the items.
  • Gear Live. Pretty simple, sign up on the site, use twitter to send a message then leave comment on post.  A couple chances to get bonus entries as well.  Gotta be signed in to get to the post it seems, so you might have to go to gearlive.com and start there by registering.
  • Windows Connected. Also relatively easy to enter.  Send a really short email to them explaining what you’ll do with it all and agree not to sell it and also agree to share some of it.

Thus far, I’ve only entered the Bleeping Computer giveaway.  Mostly because it really was that easy.  It also looks like if you win one of these prizes, you automatically become ineligible for any of the rest of them.  Not a big deal really since one should be enough.  Here’s hoping I have to worry about that rule…

HP Giving Away Thousands in Hardware

Let’s see John Chow top these contest prizes.  HP, in collaboration with Windows Live and 50 bloggers, has come up with one of the largest blog contest events I’ve ever seen.  All told, the prizes total in at $300,000!  Yes, a 3 followed by 5 zeros.

50 bloggers will be giving away 50 prize packages worth $6000 each.  Here’s the full list of participating bloggers at HP.  I would love to pick up one of these packages and I really would have loved to be one of the participating bloggers.  Think of the traffic and link love they’ll be hauling in!

Here’s the details on the prize package as well.  I count four computers in that package.  A printer and a pretty nice software package as well!

Each of the 50 blogs will be holding their own individual contest with their own individual rules so you’ll have to visit each one and catch up on the rules.  I’ll see if I can’t throw in a few updates as we go along too.  It doesn’t look like they’ll be starting the contests until Friday, but you might want to just add them all to your feedreader now so you get the contest update post right away.
