The "One Man's Trash..." Free Giveaway Part II: The Trash-eninging

Exactly one month ago, I hosted this blog's very first [but definitely not last] Free Giveaway contest. With little to no fanfare, I'm now announcing the second. This is your chance, my dear readers and loyal lurkers, to win a box full of random junk. It's an odd mixture of beloved vintage goodies and the latest in useless collectibles that is guaranteed to transform you from a 97-pound weakling into a 97-pound weakling that now owns more trash. Great trash! Mystery trash!


And don't just take my word for it!

Here's a fine post detailing the contents of last month's trash-pack from the winner, The Goodwill Geek..!

That should give you a pretty good idea of what you can expect. There will be toys and comics and DVDs and all sorts of other ridiculous things that, if you've found yourself here checking out this blog, well, you'll probably love. Or you won't and who cares, because you didn't pay anything for it, right?

But wait, there's more.

I was absolutely overwhelmed by the support and response to the previous contest and wanted to thank everyone who took time to comment by offering consolation prizes. Only one person took me up on the offer, Dex from the fantastic blog, A-E-I-O-U and Sometimes Why, and you can check out what he scored here.

Likewise, depending on how much of a response I receive for this month's giveaway, I plan on offering a handful of runner-up prizes to selected participants. It won't be much, but it's a small token of thanks for everyone spending some time here with me at It's Trash Culture.

You have a week to enter the contest and can do so simply by leaving a comment below. I'll be randomly drawing the winner's "name" next Friday, the 23rd, by 10PM. In the meantime, I hope you decide to stick around and check out the blog [if you don't already] and any future posts I might manage to conjure up along the way.

    1. Now all I can think of is the old NES-game, Fester's Quest. But instead of trying to prevent an alien invasion, he's looking to acquire a lot of worthless pop-cultural artifacts.

      Seriously, I don't think I've ever mentioned it, but I came across your blog a couple years back and loved it. Only after I started my own, though, did I "officially" start following it. So, thank you for taking the time to comment!

    1. It can overwhelming sometimes the amount of stuff we try to keep up with online. I gotta wonder why we subject ourselves to a virtual overload of information.

      Still, it's good to have you back!

    2. Yes, the overload of info can be crazy, but I hate missing out on anything! lol It's always fun to see what everyone is up to.

    1. It's a pretty harmless process, except getting jacked up with a ton of worthless "trash". Then the things you now own start to -own- you.

      Ominous music? Cued.

    1. Of course! Consider yourself one of The Entered.

      Still got a few days before I announce the winner, so feel free to hang out here. Maybe I'll get some fresh content up between now and then for you to scope while you wait.

      I don't know why, but that seemed appropriate.

    1. Hey, I got your entry before drawing a winner, but not soon enough to reply prior to announcing it. Sorry that you didn't win the big prize, but since you made it in before the deadline, you're totally eligible for a consolation prize-pack!
