In preparation for all the summertime activities we're so looking forward to, we headed to Dick's Sporting Goods the other day. OH, THE FUN TO BE HAD THERE. One of my fave areas is the tailgating section in the store. There are so many fun travel-type games that we can pack up and take camping with us. But Dick's carries so much more. They have golfing supplies, baseball and basketball gear, things for soccer and tennis, and any other activity that you'd care to participate in.
And here's where I want to help YOU get excited about Spring as well. Dick's is generously offering one reader a $50 gift card. Think of the possibilities! In addition, Dick's is offering a unique sort of contest that they're opening up to Simple readers. On the Dick's Twitter page, you can enter to be a part of the Starting Lineup. If you're chosen, you will try out and preview new products before Dick's carries them in the store. To enter the contest, simply follow Dick's Sporting Goods on Twitter, and tweet that you'd like to nominate yourself to be in the starting lineup. (It might go something like this: “@dickssportcmo I nominate @(TwitterID) for the #startinglineup because...”)
WIN YOUR OWN: To be entered to win the $50 gift card, simply leave a comment here on what you would use it for.
To enter the Starting Lineup, follow the above direction over on Twitter.
The winner of the gift card will be chosen Wednesday, March 17. The Starting Lineup contest ends March 31. Dick's Sporting Goods will announce a winner on Twitter.
