PeanutOak’s 2010 Christmas Challenge

1st Prize :: Peanutoak Christmas Bag

2nd Prize :: Peanutoak Christmas Necklace

3rd Prize :: Peanutoak Christmas Bracelet and Earrings

How does it work?

In our Facebook profile we will post a photo of one exclusive PeanutOak bag and a necklace. These will be our grand prizes. In order to participate, you have to make a comment about the photo of the prize saying you are on the run for the prize. A creative phrase will not be a must to win, but it will sure make us very happy :)

From then until January 6th, the Three King's Day, it will be the number of likes in your comment the X factor to decide who will be the winner of the first prize (the bag) and the second prize (the necklace). So, it’s time to make your friend connections work and give you the chance to add a special gift this Christmas with PeanutOak.

Since we also like to keep a little bit of Christmas magic in the air, we will also have a special third prize, a lovely pack with earrings and a bracelet. We will also post a photo of them but, in this prize, you just have to make a like in the photo to be part of the draw we will make on January 6th. If your name pops up, you’ll win it. Nice and easy.

All winners will be announced on January 7th.

Merry Christmas and we hope to see you participating.

If you have any doubts, please send us a profile message or an email to peanutoak@gmail.com

PeanutOak’s 2009 Holidays Contest

How to Participate:

In what’s becoming a tradition, PeanutOak created a Christmas & New Year contest with a stunning prize – one of our own exclusive bags. The bag is called “Going out with a Bang” and it’s definitely going out in the hand of the winner, who will only have to show his/her glamorous creativity.

Since tradition is not what it used to be, this year’s contest will take place in Facebook, with very simple rules.

- You’ll have to be a fan of PeanutOak in Facebook.

- In our profile, click in the tab “Discussions” and complete the phrase you’ll find there, in the most original, surprising and PeanutOak spirited way possible.

The deadline for submitting a phrase is 15 of December (included). Each person will only be allowed to submit one phrase, so if there are multiple entries we will only consider the last.

After that, PeanutOak will choose the three most creative phrases and, December 16th, we will post those phrases in our profile. By the end of Christmas Eve (around 23.59), the phrase with the most “likes” will be the winner.

If a tie should occur, PeanutOak has a decisive vote.

We will be taking phrases in Portuguese or English, but each participant will have to choose which language he prefers, because there can be only one phrase per person. The three final phrases chosen, can be of different languages or not (example: 2 in Portuguese and 1 in English, 3 in Portuguese and so on).

The winner will be announced on Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas!
