Happy Birthday La Plates!

I can't believe our little plate biz is turning 3! It seems like just yesterday I was dreaming up the La Plates website, brainstorming with friends and diving into this entrepreneurial adventure. Since our launch, we've had quite a ride. None of our success would have been possible without the amazing support from family, friends and our fabulous clients. Not to mention, all the new friends we've met along the way. Editors, bloggers, writers and social media peeps have shared our products with their following - making La Plates bigger than we ever dreamed could happen!

In a small effort to say thanks to all of our loyal fans, we're taking the work week (5/2/11 - 5/6/11) to giveaway La Plates treats. Here's how it works:

You can enter three times a day:
* "Like" La Plates Facebook Page and leave a comment on Celebration Post = 1 entry
* Share La Plates Celebration on YOUR Facebook Page = 1 entry
* Post the Celebration link on your Twitter account, including the following text = 1 entry
(Happy 3rd Birthday @LaPlates! LOVE the #Giveaway! http://on.fb.me/ifmZFH)

What you'll win:
The winning gift certificate amount depends on YOUR participation!
For each entry, we'll add a dollar to the La Plates Gift Certificate.
50 entries = 50 Dollar La Plates Gift Certificate
This means the more peeps you tell to enter, the bigger the prize!
(maximum = $100 La Plates Gift Certificate, daily)

How we pick our winners:
* 5 winners, 1 each day - 5/2/11 - 5/6/11
* Daily winner picked at the end of each day...whenever we end our work day
(between 5pm & midnight CST).
* Winner is posted on La Plates Facebook Page
* Number of daily entries plugged into Random.org - they pick the winner each day

And the winner is...

We love this La Plates photo winner for many reasons:

*great girlfriends getting away for a weekend
*the escape to warm sunshine (while we freeze!)
*the fab display of our Reusable Bags

We received some great photos, but this one took the cake. We'll be sending the winner (one of the ladies pictured above) a gift certificate to shop for more items at La Plates. We love to see how all of our La Plates products are used - be sure to keep emailing them in!

Snow Day Blues...

If you live anywhere near Kansas City, you aren't alone in preparing for the "crippling" snow to come. We've loaded up the house with food and bevies to last the week. (This does include a box of wine - word to the wise, it's not quality when you're snowed in!)

Looking for something to do while buried in potentially 3 feet of snow? Snap a pic of your La Plates in use. If it entertains our team while on winter lock down, you may be getting some free La Plates loot! What's better than free stuff sent to you, when you can't leave the house?

All photos should be emailed to info at laplates dot com by Friday, 2/4/11 @ 8 am CST. Let's get creative people. We want to see what's on your La Plates!

Prizes will be given for 1 out of 10 entries. One entry per person. Yes, that means the more people that enter, the more we give away! La Plates may use your photo for future promotion.
