Yesterday our friends at Sun and Ski Sports launched an innovative contest on Twitter with this message:
watch the vid. tell us what you want for the holidays from our website www.sunandski.com and win a giftcard! http://is.gd/sUD
Now broke (after buying tons of climbing gear) and desperate we decided to jump right on it:
@SunAndSki We could use a couple of these for christmas: http://is.gd/4E0q
A few minutes later we got this reply:
rock on, @teamnsc! you won the $40 giftcard to www.sunandski.com. just dm us your email and we’ll hook you up!
We’re not sure how we’re going to use the giftcard yet but there’s a pretty good chance we’ll apply it to the purchase of a SPOT 1 Satellite Messenger. Those Suunto watches are awesome but we’ll have to admire them from afar until our bank accounts recover.
If you want to follow Sun and Ski like we do just create a Twitter account and click the “Follow” button on their page. Oh, and don’t forget to add us while you’re there!
Thanks again Sun and Ski Sports!
Oh, and if all this talk of Twitter leaves you scratching your head in confusion just check out the Twitter in Plain English video. It will explain everything.
