Mrs. Mecomber's Scrapbook

Seems like a lot of companies are having contests or giveaways; that, or I am just noticing it more often. But one of the best giveaways I’ve seen so far is from Charter Internet service. I’m not surprised– Charter has been having some incredible promotions and giveaways. Last year, they gave away a Honda Hybrid car, and in another contest, they gave away laptops! Very nice!

So here’s another contest from Charter for Charter Communications customers– what do you do digitally that has changed your life? Maybe you get all your newsfrom the Internet now, or maybe you are able to see your son serving in Iraq on his webcam, or maybe you watch movies online instead of running out to the rental place. The Internet has certainly changed my life! I get all my education, news, communications, and entertainment from my beloved computer and Internet. Write your story and include photos or a video, and you could be the winner! It’s a really great giveaway, and if you have a talent for telling stories, you’d be a contender for sure!

Each week ffor eight weeks, Charter will give away either a 15″ laptop or a 52″ HDTV; at the end of the promotion, the grand prize winner will receive a 52″ HDTV AND a 15″ laptop AND a free year of the Charter Bundle (including Digital Cable with HD and DVR; Charter High Speed Internet, and Charter telephone service). It’s a really incredible giveaway. Charter usually doesn’t hold back when it comes to promotions, so this is a to check out. See Charter on Facebook or check out the Charter website.
