Hi everyone,
I know it isn't much but I'd like to start a monthly giveaway...where three people will win a gift card that can be used towards the purchase of classic movies or books on Amazon, or whatever a person wants to use it towards.
Any registered member on this site who posts at least ten times during the month will be entered into the monthly drawing.
The drawing will be held on the fifth day of the following month, with the winners posted that day.
The first drawing will occur on November 5th. Amazon gift cards will be given to three winners...each gift card valued at $10.
To claim the gift card, a winner will have to provide a valid email in order to receive the link to redeem the gift card.
This is just an idea I had to show appreciation! I know some people are on a fixed income and may like getting a freebie.
Jarrod a.k.a. TopBilled

This is a marvelous idea and a really generous gesture... Truly!
Though I might use it to buy a bottle of Ray Milland Red and pair it with the closing of the TCM Message board!! 
Sorry I just had to!

True, a generous, unexpected gesture. But my first reaction when TB said he was going to do a giveaway was mentally hearing: It Slices! It Dices! But Wait! There's more. If you act now, ...RIP, Ron Popeil

I wanted to give away DVDs, but that means I would have to ask for the winners' home addresses to ship the prizes. It's just easier this way to do gift cards, and send the link by email...then people can use the amount towards what they want. You know there'll be a group that'll want to send Hot Spell to Nip if it were DVDs. |

that is right so I doan need it. I was looking for this old TV-movie with james franciscus but could not find it or DL it so I may have to order it.
TV-movie is The Trial of Chaplain Jensen. franciscus is a navy chaplain accused of having affairs with two women because he was going to blow the lid off wife-swapping at a florida naval base. franciscus was always an a-1 actor so it might have some good drama.

Look at me! I'm a contenda!
If I am truly Lucky, I wouldn't mind giving my address to you if you could send a disk of The Big Lebowski.

A friend of mine who lives in Nevada is conducting the drawing. I sent the "contenders" to her and she is making a video of the drawing, which I hope will be easy to upload here. I didn't want people to accuse of us favoritism, and to show the drawing is legit.
She is drawing three names plus one alternate, because someone messaged me on the side and said if they are chosen, they would like to the gift card to go to someone else.
The winners will be announced on this thread tomorrow, and fingers crossed, we can upload the video of the drawing without any tech issues. |
