I ran across a very cool contest the other day. Even though anybody would be happy to be the grand prize winner, the prize really dovetails into the plans of any DIYers out there who have a remodel looming on the horizon. (Come on, income tax refund time!)
The electronics and appliance company LG seems to be into everything lately. Any stroll through Best Buy will convince you of that! Big screen TV's, washing machines, refrigerators, and more. The first time that I saw any of their products was when I was a supervisor at a hotel. There was a big remodel going on and here came a truckload of LG televisions. Over 400.
But back to why you're reading this. The contest. The grand prize is a collection of appliances and electronics that's worth over $18,000. When you win you'll probably have to pony up tax on it, but hey, who's complaining?
In addition to the grand prize, there will be a second and third prizewinner and then 20 finalists. All told, it all adds up to over $30,000.
So how do you win? You'll have to slap on your thinking cab and be incredibly creative and witty. Get out your director's chair and make a 15 to 30 second video. What's the theme? Anything that makes you sigh and say, “Life's good when...”. Yeah, like their motto.
You'll have to hurry because the deadline is 11:59:59 PM, November 10. No, I don't know why they didn't just say “midnight” either. Check out the official scoop on the LG page.
