October 2007 Member of the Month Contest

Bose OE TriPort HeadphonesThis month we’ve got a brand new, shiny, pair of Bose TriPort OE studio headphones. These babies go for $179.00 right now on Amazon, and sound amazing.

They fold up and come with a little travel case, so you can toss them in your bag and use them with an iPod, laptop, or whatever. Frankly this is one of those items that most people normally wouldn’t drop this kind of change on, so naturally it makes for a perfect prize here on OMB!

We’re going to run this by the same rules as last month for now. You can do either (or both) of the following to qualify for an entry into this contest:

  1. Subscribe for e-mail updates (form on the right side of the page). This makes sure that I have your e-mail so I can contact you if you win, and it allows my readers that don’t have Web sites to still have a chance at winning. NOTE: if you aren’t receiving daily e-mail updates then you are NOT confirmed and need to sign up again.
  2. Create a post with at least one link back to any OMB article during the contest month. Please make sure to leave a trackback on the post you link, or drop me an e-mail, so I can keep track.

Details:

  • If you win I’ll ship anywhere in the world. I don’t care where you are! So, everyone is eligible.
  • Winners will be chosen by a random drawing which I’ll have my wife select while blindfolded (or at least not looking).
  • If you do something spectacular to help promote this site it will earn you extra entries. (Like start a Digg, Stumble, or Reddit storm, create graphics or improve my theme – or anything else generally kick ass.)
  • The rules may be changed a little here and there to keep things fair if I’ve forgotten anything. Please ask questions if you see glaring holes in the plan.

If you’re going to enter via a blog article, how about helping spread the love about this contest? And if you don’t have a Web site but are a regular reader, perhaps it’s time to get an e-mail subscription (top right of the page) so I can include you too? See my privacy policy if you have any concerns.

Now… since handing out just one prize at the end of the month doesn’t seem all that fun to me. There will probably be a few smaller mystery prizes as well. I don’t know about you guys, but to me it just seems more fun if more people win stuff!

So good luck, and keep reading! :-)

    so if you have previously registered for email updates, youre already gonig to be entered in to the contest right?

  2. Mary says:

    Better underline the deadline with the exact date and hour, I suggest.

  3. Derek Wong says:

    Good idea on getting something that is pricey and yet not something that is absolutely necessary. I’ve always thought that those kinds of things make good gifts because the person receiving it wouldn’t exactly get it for themselves but they’d appreciate it if they did.

  4. Greg says:

    Since you are being so generous, I’ll return the favor if I win. I’ll let you drive my Maserati.

  5. John P. says:

    Don’t spoil the surprise! :-) The secret of the headphones will be revealed shortly!

    Yes, absolutely! All you have to do is be a current subscriber. If you’re getting the e-mails, then you’re good! :-)

  7. John P. says:

    Well, the contest ends at the stroke of Midnight on the last day of October in Frisco, TX. So, if people want to synchronize their watches, I’m talking about 00:00:00 on November 1, 2007 -6 GMT. And then, another one will begin!

    Hopefully this takes care of that little detail. :-)

  8. Greg says:

    I don’t think anyone would be suprised that I have a super cool Maserati piece of Italian trash.
