My Red Fox Goodie Bag!

I recently joined a photo contest in Red Fox’s Facebook page entitled Red Fox Moment.  It was Resly, a fellow community member from windows7ako, gave me an idea when he asked me to “like” his nephew’s photo in the Red Fox page.  The purpose being is to gain the highest votes and get the grand prize, a brand new Red Fox 1020i Netbook! A day before the deadline that was June 24, 2010 I decided to take a photo of me holding a Red Fox CPU like the god Atlas, posted it on the Red Fox page in Facebook and ask some friends to vote for it.  I’ve got a total of 19 votes from my friends!    The 19 votes is nothing compared to the 1510 votes of the winner, Lily Bartlett!  I just joined for fun and try my luck, after all the Red Fox admin told us that representatives from Red Fox will choose 5 entries based on the photo’s appeal and creativity.  Those 5 entries will get a Red Fox goodie bag as a consolation price!

Here’s my photo entry…

Last July 1, 2010 the Red Fox admin announced the winners and again Resly was the one to break the good news to me, telling me that I was one of the 5 lucky winners to received a Red Fox goodie bag! One of the admin of the page sent me a private message in Facebook on July 2, 2010 confirming that I really won! In the message she’s asking for some personal information for me to claim the prize.  At first I hesitated to reply since the message came from an individual claiming to be the Admin of the Red Fox page! What if this person is a hoax and just wanted to get my details so that she can claim my prize?  Anyways I did replied haha. Three days after my reply I got a text message asking me to drop by at Red Fox concept store at SM North Cyberzone on July 7, 2010  at 5:30 pm to claim my Red Fox goodie bag!

July 7, 2010, I took a train from my workplace to SM North Cyberzone to claim my prize! I arrived at the concept store too early so I took a stroll at the Cyperzone looking for technologies from different concept stores.  I went back to the Red Fox concept store at around 6 PM to claim my prize.  There were three of us who claimed our prize, they took photos of us receiving our prize before they let us go .  And that’s just it!  Thanks Red Fox!

And here’s my Red Fox goodies…

• Red Fox Game Controller
• Red Fox Calendar
• Gigabyte Fan
• Gigabyte Sticky Pad
• KingMax Pen

Wishing for an Arc Mouse? Here is your chance!

I’ve been using my Microsoft Arc Mouse since I got it from Microsoft for FREE in one of their trivia contest in windows7ako.com (the official Philippines’ Windows 7 Facebook page).  The Arc Mouse is not just an ordinary mouse, I can describe it as sexy and sophisticated, not to mention a source of envy among my friends.  It’s unique and really designed for portability since you can fold it, not like the other mice which is bulky!

Now if you want to have one, here is your chance but it’s not for free!  Branches of Silicon Valley in SM North and SM Megamall has this Arc Mouse trade-in promo. Just swap your working or non-working mouse (any brand) and get 30% off from the original price of the Arc Mouse!  That’s less PhP 900.00 from the original PhP 3,000.00 price, so you’ll get to pay PhP 2,100.00 only.

PhP 2,100.00 is still a high price than that of it’s wireless mouse competitors but it’s a little bit tempting because of it’s sexy and sophisticated design! It’s good I already have one, or else I will have to go at SM North and get one!

This promo runs from June 23 to July 31, 2010 only!
