Hi All!
Unbelievably, on December 1st, Iconic Alternatives will be 1 year old. To celebrate and say, "Thank You!" I am having a Reader Appreciation Contest. After asking Sir Miles, he suggested starting a new, short term thread about the Contest in case anyone has questions, etc.
The Contest will run from today (November 26th) until midnight GMT -6 November 30th. To enter the contest, you just need to go to the page linked below and complete a short entry form near the bottom of the post. This is actually more of sweepstakes or a draw than a contest. So no skill involved.

The contest is open to anyone over the age of 21 ('cause we're giving away alcohol!!! {[] ) from the U.S. and mainland UK. I know that excludes some excellent members of the community here, and my apologies.
But I have some very cool things planned for early next year that I hope will make up for this!
On December 1st, we will be drawing the names from a hat and announcing the winners on the site! That's about it!
What can you win? We have 5 different prize packages:
This package includes two Grasmere DOF tumblers and The Macallan!
If you win this one, you can select any one of the ties from Indy's Bond reproductions and either the blue or the white Mr. Fish shirt.
Herring Mustangs
This one also includes 100 Chemex filters. In case you didn't know, Matt Sherman is Bond Collectors' Weekends! I also had no idea he was an author until he mentioned his book!
Full dinner jacket/semi-formal set up from Gagliardi!
There you go! Of course, I have to give a shout out to all the incredible sponsors. I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision for them to give a prize to a website they'd never heard of before. But they did. And they were all absolutely great to deal with.
If anyone has any questions, comments or suggestions about the Contest, just post here. That way the Budget Bond Collectors Resource thread won't get derailed.
Thanks again to the great community here at AJB! You guys (and gals) are what make this fun!
Good luck!
John

Comments
Is Canada considered part of the US for this contest or no?
Bond: “I must be dreaming.”
A pity those of us in the US can't win the scotch and tumblers. Still a lot of great prizes.
That you were able to get all these sponsors to contribute is truly remarkable. {[]
Nicely done. :007)
hcantrell: I'll let you off with a warning this time ... this time :v
Jacob Mortensen: It's more about shipping address. If you have a U.S. or UK physical address you can use (for example a friend or relatives house; not a P.O. Box) then use the country of that address when you submit your entry. Once the prize is delivered by the sponsor, getting it the rest of the way would be up to you. Hope that helps!
Thanks for bringing this to AJB as well {[]
I had no idea you were a fellow Canuck. Are you in the Toronto area?

Thanks! Did you manage to submit an entry?
I thought the form filter would have caught your's and auto-deleted it!! X-(
Charmed & Dangerous messaged me that he was having some problems entering so I wanted to check it worked for him in the end.
The contest has no question to answer, so I may have a chance to win...
Yes, thank you! I found it easier via a web browser than via Instagram though (im such a technophobe
I haven't won anything either
Congrats on anniversary and fabulous comp , entry submitted.
Good thing the contest software picks the winners
Seriously, thanks again for the support!
Getting a chuckle that this thread is often located next to the TF Harrington Project thread. One celebrates the frugal and the other celebrates the "SA but not frugal."
X-( I keep asking myself that same ques ....
The Contest isn't rigged!!!!
That could become a rivalry as epic as the "Props vs. Clothing" one!
For anyone that hasn't entered yet, please remember that the deadline for entry is midnight GMT -6 November 30th. Thanks!
Congrats on the anniversary and thanks for your tireless work in bringing Bond to the budget minded!
If you haven't already entered today (November 30th) is the last day! The contest closes at midnight GMT -6. Here is the link to the entry page again:
