Same old song and Dance

16 March 2009 920 views 13 Comments

If you’ve been shopping at Clem’s for a while, you probably know that every year we run a contest associated with the NCAA basketball tournament. We do this in spite of the fact that probably half of our customers are unaware that such a tournament even exists, and we are also aware that there are about 3,000,000 other opportunities for you to fill out a bracket and win free stuff from other businesses or online scams.

So why do we still run a contest and expect that people will enter? It’s simple: how many bracket contest can you enter where you have the opportunity to win FREE COMIC BOOKS?????

Here’s the deal: all you have to do is submit your picks to our group on Yahoo (group ID: 129843, password: superman). Then you leave a comment in response to THIS POST in which you leave us your full name and the corresponding name of your picks or Yahoo user ID (this is so we can easily tell who has won prizes – sometimes it’s difficult to figure out just which one of our customers is hotladiesman3333).

Here’s what you can win !!!

First place – $50 gift certificate to Clem’s!

Second place – $25 gift certificate to Clem’s!

Third place through sixth places will get to choose, in order, from the following prizes: Star Wars Rise of the Sith omnibus trade paperback, Witchblade Volume 1 trade paperback, World’s Finest Showcase Volume 1 trade paperback, and a starter set for World of Warcraft miniatures!

In addition, EVERY PARTICIPANT who is able to beat MY picks (clemslansing) will get a free comic book valued at $3.99 cover price or less.

So get in on the action… visit this link to get signed up (choose “Join a group”, group ID: 129843, password: superman) and then don’t forget to leave us a comment with your name and set name:

THE FINE PRINT: Must be 18 years or older to enter, and must have proper identification to pick up your prize(s). Your prize must be picked up in person – these items are not available to ship unless you already have a shipping account with Clem’s Collectibles of Lansing, in good standing.

Oh, yeah: GO BLUE!!!!
