You Decide the Prize for the photo contest! June 20th, 2007

So, ok, I still don’t have a prize for the beer in your fridge prize. I was kind of hoping that after my first post, Mary MacIssac (our OCB marketing guru and the reason why you buy Ontario wine these days) would have said "funny you mention that Steve, we happen to have a cool OCB fridge just hanging around and nothing to do with it"…but no such luck.

Then I got to thinking…how draconian of me to decide what you should win. You should get to decide. So how about this: With every pic you send in, you can also submit your idea for what the prize should be. The winner will be the most original idea that we can actually pull off. I’m going to arbitrarily set myself, Dave Jones and the aforementioned Mary MacIsaac as the judging panel.

Now, just to set the tone of this new sub-contest to the photo contest, I’m also going set the prize for the best idea for a prize: Whoever’s prize idea we choose will get an autographed picture of me taking a bath in beer. Hell, I’ll even throw in the frame. (as a general rule of thumb, I figure anything that works for Whoopi G will work for me)

There is only one rule – you have to include a picture of OCB beer in your fridge with every prize-idea you enter. You can enter more than once, BUT you have to put the beer in a different fridge OR put different OCB beer in the same fridge.

If you have already submitted a photo, you are welcome to enter your suggestion now. So get your Dr…er…thinking caps on and start sending in your pics + prize ideas.

Hey Mary,

We’re just teasing. When we first were getting ready to launch, we thought we would be going into LCBO right away. So we developed a six pack box, labels, caps, you name it.

You may still get to see that out some day though.

Cheers,

Steve
