March 18, 2010 • Posted by Michael Ferrari2010 March Madness Contest Winners, Part 1
In celebration of March Madness (and Spring), we will have 8, yes 8 $100 gift card winners this month!
To kick things off for the first contest this month, we asked ‘What was the title of the session SmartyPig participated in at SXSW? The answer – Banking 2.0: Financial Services Driven by People & Emerging Technologies (we also accepted the short version – Banking 2.0).
Between Twitter and Facebook, we had over 150 players, randomized our list to 16 and picked the 4 $100 SmartyPig gift card winners:
You’ll know the top 16 by watching the video! Thank you to everyone for playing and good luck in the contest on March 30!
Congrats to our winners: @tcita, @hangontomato, jimpryde@ (Facebook winner) and @markevaul!
January 2010 Twitter Contest Winners
Everyone was in a great mood this morning during our January Twitter contest! We really liked all of the creative ways people replied the answer. That said – the answer to the quesiton ‘Which Today Show host gave SmartyPig props in a recent interview with Heather Cabot’ was Al Roker.
