Update: $100 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway

Written by Michael Rohde Monday, 30 April 2012 13:00

This raffle is now closed. Congratulations to Vanyel for winning!

The current raffle is for a $100 USD Amazon gift card* and there's no purchase necessary.

You might have noticed at one point that we write up articles letting you know when Amazon has a good deal. You might have also noticed that we have advertisements that point you in Amazon's direction. That's because GoozerNation is an Amazon Affiliate. Because of that, when you click a link to Amazon from GoozerNation and then purchase something, we get a little something in return. And it turns out we had a pretty good Holiday season. Now it's our turn to give back to you with an opportunity to win a $100 USD Amazon gift card.*

Here's how to enter:

Log in to GoozerNation
A Raffle Entry button will appear after you log in (look at the very end of this post)
Each time you enter, you will use 50 GoozerNation points (no purchase necessary)
To get GoozerNation points, just read articles, rate articles, or write articles and other stuff. More details here
The winner will be announced on April 30, 2012.
You can enter as often as you like

*If you win and you are outside of the US, then we can work something out where we ship $100USD worth of Amazon goods to you, minus shipping and handling. We'll contact you for details.

Number of subscription for the current raffle: 931

Woo Hoo! Thanks for the raffle!

With the winner being drawn when there are 10,000 entries, I predict that it's going to take more than a year for this raffle to end. Especially since, with the current amount of points floating around there can't be more than 5,000 possible entries at this point.

If you want it to last as long as I think it will you should just put up an end date rather than have it go by the ridiculous 10,000 entries.

The site gets over 1,000 views per day and well over 30,000 views per month. If everyone who visits the site enters, then this contest would be over in three weeks.

Except it costs 50 points to enter the contest, and looking at the Rank and Point List there are only 107 people who can enter even once. Even if I used all 20,000 of my points that would only be 400 entries. How many of those 30,000 monthly views are from people who stick around long enough to make an account and earn points?

That's a great point and I'm glad you made it. Ultimately, it would be great for all 30,000 people to make an account and earn points. Am I dreaming here? Maybe so, but you know what was said about dreamers of the day... "Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible." - T.E. Lawrence

Yea for contests!

lol, I feel like I just wasted my points by entering, having missed that '10k entries' line. That's never going to happen, at least not in 2012.

+1 # Michael Rohde 2012-02-17 14:36

I'm going to update the contest soon. Probably 1,000 entries for $100.

I had a dream where this $60 was deposited into my Amazon account, and the very next day Borderlands 2 arrived on my doorstep. Pleasant dream. Hooray contest!

Did you see the trailer released yesterday? You'll be waiting awhile, it isn't releasing until September

# sikapwach 2012-02-23 14:32

Yah I just hope that my pre-order on Amazon will retroactively get the pre-order bonuses that they just announced.

# Phat B 2012-02-23 21:47

Yeah I'm hoping they bump it up to the $20 credit for the pre-order, as they have been known to do from time to time. The pre-order competition game is really getting fierce out there. Just farting out DLC and gift card rebates all over the place. As for the trailer, the guy with the large caliber cannon attached to his back was very intriguing.

I know this may go against the style of this site but if the gift card is mine I am getting the Space Ghost Coast-To-Coast, The Brak Show, Sealab 2021 and Harvey Birdman DVDs.

# Michael Rohde 2012-02-23 09:41

Feel free to spend the money on anything you like! We write up posts on DVDs occasionally.

The Sealab 2021 theme song is so good. It seriously sounds like old Lennon McCartney to me. I looped it to 5 minutes and put it on my ipod. The show is pretty great too.
