J&D’s Bacon Salt: The Coveted Prize in the Latest “Virtual Karma Counts” Contest

April 5, 2010 - By Justin E. Gehrke

If you follow us on Twitter, you know if there is anything we love more than technology and shiny new gadgets, it’s bacon. We love to eat it, tweet about it, post photos of it, and generally discuss it until the elusive #Bacon Bot shows up. We’re not the only ones, though. There are thousands (maybe even millions) of people who tweet about bacon on Twitter, each and every day. So, in a tribute to both bacon and all those who tweet about it, Geek Shui Living is proud to announce that we’ve dug deep into our piggy bank (no pun intended) to purchase and give away 2-ounces of J&D’s Bacon Salt¹, to one lucky winner.

The rules² are simple:

  1. Leave a comment on this post, telling us, in 25 words or less, how you think Bacon Salt makes the world a better place. It can be funny or sincere, but, remember, creativity is king! In place of a personal or business website, include the URL for your Twitter account (i.e. http://twitter.com/geekshui).
  2. Then, Tweet the following: “Hey, @GeekShui wants to know how Bacon Salt has made the world a better place. Enter to win it here: http://bit.ly/c4bmZ2 #GeekShui”


(Important: If you retweet our tweet, be certain to do it the manual way. The new retweet method prevents it from showing up in our timeline, which means no Bacon Salt for you.)

The contest begins today, April 5, 2010. Registration closes Friday, April 9, 2010, at 12:00 PM EST. One lucky winner will be selected the very same day! Make sure you read the detailed rules below, because attention to detail also counts.

That’s it. No following simply because you want to win something. Just comment and tweet. It couldn’t be any easier than that!

¹Geek Shui Living is in no way affiliated with J&D’s Bacon Salt or its partners. This contest is unsponsored and being conducted simply as a tribute to the “Bacontrepreneurs” and their vision to “make everything taste like bacon.”
²The Tweet must mention @GeekShui or include the hash-tag #GeekShui, to be considered eligible. To qualify, your tweet must be posted on Geek Shui Living’s Twitter Mention page, by noon EST on April 9, 2010. One winner will be selected at random from all submissions. Once the winner has been selected, Geek Shui Living will announce the winner, on Twitter. The winners will have 24-hours to respond, via Direct Message (DM) with their mailing address. In the event, the selected winner does not respond, via DM within 24-hours, another winner will be selected at random, from the remaining entries received.
