BRICKPICKER CYBER MONDAY AWESOME DEAL CONTEST

[Jeff Mack]

ED AND I WANT TO PUT A LITTLE KICK INTO THE CYBER MONDAY EVENT.  TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT (EST), WE WILL LAUNCH "THE DAILY DEALS THREAD: CYBER MONDAY EDITION". THIS THREAD WILL BECOME THE PLACE TO VIEW AND POST ALL AWESOME CYBER MONDAY DEALS.  DEALS DO NOT NEED TO BE LEGO RELATED, BUT JUST AWESOME.  SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE WOULD TRULY BE INTERESTED IN.  ELECTRONICS, TOYS, MOVIES, ETC. (RESPONSIBLE ITEM LISTINGS PLEASE).  DO NOT INCLUDE LINKS TO THINGS LIKE DISH TOWELS, CHEETOS, PACKS OF GUM, ETC  THOSE TYPES OF POSTS WILL PROBABLY BE DELETED.

 

ON TUESDAY, ED AND I WILL GO THROUGH THE LIST AND TALLY UP THE POSTS WITH THE QUALIFIED LINKS. FOR A POST TO COUNT, IT NEEDS TO INCLUDE THE URL TO THE ONLINE DEAL (ONLY ONLINE DEALS WILL COUNT).  I WILL UPDATE THIS POST WITH EXAMPLES OF SOME OUR AFFILIATE LINKS TO SHOW YOU HOW TO INCLUDE THEM IF POSSIBLE.  YOU DO NOT NEED TO USE THE AFFILIATE LINKS, BUT WE WILL GIVE "BONUS POINTS" TO THOSE THAT DO.  IF WE SEE A POST LIKE "BATCAVE 6860 @ WM" AND IT DOES NOT INCLUDE A LINK, IT WILL NOT COUNT.

 

FIRST PRIZE = $50 GIFT CARD TO AMAZON OR LEGO S@H

SECOND PRICE = $25 GIFT CARD TO AMAZON OR LEGO S@H

THIRD PRIZE = $10 GIFT CARD TO AMAZON OR LEGO S@H

 

OVERALL WE ARE LOOKING FOR NEW ITEMS THAT POP UP THROUGHOUT THE DAY.  NOT THE DEALS THAT WE ALREADY KNOW THAT LEGO IS OFFERING OR POSTED IN TODAY'S DAILY DEAL THREAD.  WE ARE SURE THAT THERE WILL BE FLASH SALES AT DIFFERENT RETAILERS ON ITEMS THROUGHOUT THE DAY.

 

THIS IS OPEN TO ALL MEMBERS AND MODS.  DEALS CAN BE IN ANY COUNTRY, NOT JUST USA.  YOU NEED TO BE CAREFUL WHERE YOU GRAB DEALS FROM.  DON'T COPY LINKS FROM OTHER SITES LIKE SLICK DEALS, THEY WILL INCLUDE THEIR AFFILIATE LINKS AND WILL BE VOIDED FROM THE CONTEST.  AGAIN, WE ARE LOOKING FOR QUALITY LINKS AND QUALITY DEALS TO MAKE THE THREAD WORTHWHILE TO THE MEMBERS TRYING TO FIND GOOD DEALS ON ANYTHING. 

 

FEEL FREE TO POST ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING THE CONTEST.

MORE TO COME.....

[exciter1]

At midnight I'll be scouring the globe for the best corn dog deals.  You heard it here first!

[Sauromosis]

Glad to see this as I haven't yet seen anything that makes me excited.

[Jeff Mack]

Yes that's basically the conversation Ed and I had today which led to this. Hopefully members can try and look for something that will be exciting for people to look at if there are no great Lego deals. Maybe we will be surprised

Over an hour and a half in and I'm still waiting patiently!

[Guest brickcrazyhouse]

 if exciter does post a great deal on corn dogs, it deserves a badge

WINNERS PLEASE SEND ME A PM AND LET ME KNOW WHAT GIFT CARD YOU WOULD LIKE

[exciter1]

Thanks Jeff, Ed and all who were active yesterday.  It wasn't a very good deal day, especially for LEGO.

 

I've been gone all day and missed the announcement. DOH!

[ravenb99]

Soooo 2 things to note from the winners list.

 

The winner did not deliver on his great corn dog deal

 

and the 3rd place finisher (my teammate) who was "Unavailable" for multiple parts of the trivia competition sure had enough time to post deals and place in this challenge!!!  Hmmm, think Alpinemaps and myself will have to have an "internal investigation" into this

 

Congratulations to the winners.  It made for some interesting deals of the day too!

OK I know it looks suspect but it is legitimate why I was tied up multiple times.  Yikes.

I thought about splitting the $10 gift card 3 ways and knew it wasn't possible.

But I did get some people some good deals on blinds! ROFL

LOL, we'll let it slide this time.  If it would of been the first place prize there would of been some more heat about the matter.  As it stands it looks like you just took "some" time away from the TEAM competition.
