Living Direct’s Outdoor Entertaining Giveaway Winner
And the winner of our 2010 Outdoor Entertaining Giveaway is....
Robert B. from California!
Robert was kind enough to arrange all of the prizes and send us a picture of him with them. He won a Minden Master propane gas grill, a Vifah Balthazar 5 piece patio dining set, a Margaritaville cordless frozen concoction maker and an 8' x 10' Surya Rain Green outdoor rug. The place settings, margarita glasses and center piece were already Robert's. He assures us all of the prizes will see good use this 4th of July weekend.
Stay tuned for our next giveaway coming in late July/early August...
Congratulations again, Robert!
Natural Disaster Preparedness Guides – LivingDirect.com
Today we launched a new section on LivingDirect.com: Natural Disaster Product Guide Pages.
These pages are an area/idea that we are passionate about growing. We understand the dangers and unpredictability that come with natural disasters and we hope that these guides are a good start for helping families prepare for emergencies.
Being located in Texas and having employees from all over the United States (and some even from other countries), we have experienced many, if not all, of the natural disasters touched upon in our guides, and we know what is necessary to make it through those tough times. That is why we offer power generators, heaters, flashlights, compact cooking equipment and other survival gear on our site.
LivingDirect.com will continue to grow its product line and update these natural disaster guides in order to provide the best products and appliances for surviving any type of disaster. Please look through these guides and let us know what other appliances you would like to see on our site or have used yourself in these situations. We welcome all recommendations and will do our best to follow them through.
Being prepared is the key to protecting your home and loved ones from any unexpected natural disasters, and LivingDirect.com is committed to helping you do just that.
Today’s Agenda: Company Bowling & T-Shirt Design Contest Voting
View All Submissions & Stay Tuned for the Winners!
Today is an exciting day in the office! Our off-site quarterly meeting is being held this afternoon at the bowling alley, and soon the voting will conclude for our first Company T-Shirt Design Contest.
The rules are simple & the prizes mighty:
Contest Rules
- Every employee is eligible to enter – no maximum on the number of designs per person
- Design to be printed on only 1 side of the shirt (front or back)
- Design must be printed on one of the following colored shirts: Green, White, Grey or Black

Prizes
- 1st Prize: $250 Prepaid Visa Gift Card
- 2nd Prize: A pack of Hanes Beefy T’s and two (2) Ken’s breakfast tacos
There were plenty of laughs and amazement yesterday morning as the t-shirt design entries were unveiled for voting. Many inside jokes and some shirts that left some folks scratching their heads.
The office had until close of business (COB as we often abbreviate it) to cast their vote.
Surprisingly, there was a 4-way tie for first place at the end of voting. A run-off vote is currently in progress so the suspense is high. Stay tuned for the winners to be announced and for a recap of the company meeting.
In the meantime, what's your favorite shirt?
