Here’s a chance to make your creativity pay off! The folks over at Caboodle want to see what you can do with their product. Caboodles are designed for customization — you can decorate them any way you want to match your style. So we’re asking you to get out your art supplies and show us what you’ve got!
There are three phases to this contest:
- ENTER TO WIN! We are giving away 20 FREE Caboodles here on Moderncat (these are the new and improved Caboodles). Leave a comment on this post to enter to win. Twenty winners will be chosen in a random drawing on September 30 and notified by email. Caboodles will be shipped right away so you can start decorating. (Due to shipping time, this portion of the contest is limited to addresses in the US and Canada.)
- DECORATE! Everyone will have until November 1 to customize your Caboodle and email photos to contest@caboodlecats.com. NOTE: You don’t have to be one of the 20 winners to enter! If you already have a Caboodle you can enter to win the grand prize! Just decorate it and send in your photos before the deadline.
- VOTE! The top designs will be chosen by the Caboodle team and posted on Moderncat then everyone will get to vote for their favorite design. Voting will be open from November 2 -7 and the top design will be announced on November 9. The winner will receive a $100 shopping spree at Puutty Power, your online resource for the most stylish products — for cats only!
This should be a fun contest and I’m guessing that we might even see some Halloween-themed Caboodles. We can’t wait to see what the Moderncat readers come up with!
