Fab Freebie: Notable Quotables

*** This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see our winners!***

You guys seemed to enjoy our “Pump Up The Volume” freebie with Vol. 25 so much earlier this year, that we took her up on her offer to do another giveaway. And this time she’s the one pumping up the volume… by doubling the prize pot to FOUR $50 gift cards towards anything in her shop. You’ll also find a few new prints along with some oldies-but-goodies (we’ve always loved her unique way of bringing a sweet quote to life). Plus now you can get them printed on 16 x 20 canvas. Oh, and did we mention that anyone in the world is eligible to win?

Giveway Vol 25 Nov

Here are the giveaway deets:

  • PRIZE: A $50 gift card towards Vol. 25
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “QUOTE ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … share one of your favorite quotes. Perhaps it’s something inspirational or moving? Or maybe it’s just from a movie that makes you crack up every time you hear it.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 3rd at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Four
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Worldwide
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

******************************

This giveaway’s FOUR random winners are:

  • Clarissa (who’s favorite quote is “This is an ’81 Honda….HOW DARE YOU?!!” from Employee of the Month)
  • Leona (“Sometimes I sit and look at life at a different angle.”)
  • Anita (“The future will not belong to those who sit on the sidelines. The future will not belong to the cynics. The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” -Paul Wellstone)
  • Erin Nusbaum (“Art washes away from the soul, the dust of everyday life.” -Pablo Picasso)

Congrats everyone! And don’t forget to take advantage of the Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal that Vol. 25 is offering on prints (free print of equal or lesser value). Just put the title of your free print (along with requested size) in the message to seller upon checkout. Sorry, sale does not apply to already discounted print sets, or customized prints.

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Vol. 25.

    QUOTE ME!
    “The whole purpose of places like Starbucks is for people with no decision-making ability whatsoever to make six decisions just to buy one cup of coffee. Short, tall, light, dark, caf, decaf, low-fat, non-fat, etc. So people who don’t know what the hell they’re doing or who on earth they are can, for only $2.95, get not just a cup of coffee but an absolutely defining sense of self: Tall. Decaf. Cappuccino.”
    From You’ve Got Mail- I love that movie and could watch it every day!

    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.

    QUOTE ME!!!

    “LIKE IT NEVER HAPPENED”-Originated on a road trip with my friend at the time but wife later, although we were driving to Arkansas for me to put the final woo on a long lost love, and a bearded best friend when a Big Red soda spilled on the three of us wearing matching white V-necks. Finding a loose Tide pen in the back seat we erased the stains and the bearded one screamed “LIKE IT NEVER HAPPENED!” Fast forward over a year later and I stumble upon a Tide ad in a magazine in the OKC airport that read…”LIKE IT NEVER HAPPENED” Makes us laugh every time we hear it and sad we are not in marketing.

    I recently got my hair cut into a really short bob after years of long hair. In the elevator at work one day, a lady said she once had waist length hair but after she got a pixie cut, she never had long hair again and said,”you know what they say, once you whack, you never go back!” The way she said it made me crack up.
