KDCers:I need some feedback and suggestions for the contest prizes. As a lot of you already know, Joe pays for most of the contests himself. So for these particular ones, we want to make sure that the winnings are to your liking. What are your favorites that we feature regularly?Is there any that we haven't used and you would like to see?Have there been some that you want to see more often?Let me know! Emoticon  4951

Wait - joe pays for them? These places don't donate $25 for their name to be up for (at least) 24hrs?

Joe pays for some of these out of his pocket? Snap!! I love him even more for this; because in all sense, it really does bring in more community involvement.........quirks and all. Thank you Joe!I like every contest that is posted. It's all local business, and no national chain BS. ~Side note: I honestly thought that Maxi Clean was a place just for women; until yesterday, when I @AngieKaye won and realized it was the dry cleaning place on NP. I saw the word Maxi and thought of Maxi-pad, etc.... Hence why I assumed the place was for women. Name needs to be changed IMO. Back on track:Overall, each contest is great! KDC should keep promoting local businesses through these contests'.P.S. Heaven forbid if someone create a business called "Kingwood Erectors "For all your construction needs," and they become a contest sponsor. Talk about new members right there! Emoticon 4951

@Brat: Happens to me every time I'm posting their contest info. Emoticon  
The only prizes that are donated by businesses will say "sponsored by" or something similar.  4951

I really like and appreciate all of them. However, some I just wouldn't use, like car care or lawn services...you know the "guy stuff." Then again, the guys might not like the spa or salon ones so it all balances. Emoticon

@Brat:
I thought it was a house cleaning service. I don't think I'd want someone to come clean. It would stress me out having a stranger roaming my home.
I too just noticed it a dry cleaner.

@ctl74: I thought the same thing.
 
OTOH, it takes a lot of time to run after sponsors, so maybe it's worth it to just pitch in the money. However, KDC is a growing group of very engaged and community minded people. Sponsors should be fighting each other for the privilege of donating a $25 gift certificate.
