Thank you so much to all those who entered our FREE Coach contest! It was very fun. We had so many great entries via text, tweet, blog, and Facebook.
I know there is much anticipation to find out the winners. And I will reveal them..... soon. But while I've got your attention: You can still text "Brighteyes" to 74700 to be put on our texting list for specials and events. And don't forget to check in on Foursquare and add reviews about us on LocalShops1.com!
Now, on to the winners:
Our category one (blog comment) winner: Joysunshine.
She really out did herself with creative and honestly desperate pleading for Coach sunglasses. Here is one sample:
(In the tune of "If I Only Had a Brain")
I will savor every hour
While lookin at the flowers
And not have any strain
And my face would be so dreamy
While the sun's so hot and steamy
If I only had COACH Frames
I'd be cute, not just a little
As any individ'le
I hope I'm not too vain
(Dorothy--a.k.a. Dr. Bonilla-Warford)
In the sun you'd be winkin'
While your shades would hide your blinkin'
If you only had COACH frames.
(Scarecrow--aka ME)
Oh, I would watch the sky
As the sunset on the shore
I could look at things I never saw before
And then I'd sit and look some more
I would not be missin' nuffin'
I'd sing till I was huffin'
I'd play out in the rain
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-derry
If I only had COACH frames!!!!
Winner from Category Two (Twitter/Facebook): @KrystalS
Krystal not only had numerous funny Facebook and Twitter pleas for the glasses, she was the only one who actual wrote a blog post about our contest. Kudos to her for going the extra mile.
Winner from Category Three (Text): Melanie Alvarez
Like most people who entered by text, Melanie also entered via the other ways. But she was the luckiest texter.
Congrats to all three winners! All you have to do is stop by Bright Eyes and pick out some shades or frames. We'll take care of the rest. :)
Thanks to all who entered. I hope everyone had a good time. But, hang on, there is more. We had so many great entries that we decided to give out some honorable mention prizes!!!!
First, we have @IslandGirlCakes! She makes specialty cakes and said that she'd make a special Bright Eyes cake if she won. So we will take her up on her offer and will trade one pair of Coach sunglasses/frames for said cake. It better be amazing!
Second,we have @EllenatVistra who did submit some creative poems and haikus! She wins a $100 gift certificate!
And finally, Amanda, Amy, Michele, Danielle and Shelley all win $50 gift certificates for sheer determination!
This contest was very fun. Maybe we'll do it again. We've already done Tiffany and Coach. Maybe Kate Spade next time?
Thanks everyone!
