Oh man I need to win this one!!!! ;-p
Cool, now I need to read up on how to use Pinterest.
I run a local Connecticut site and I wrote how to use Pinterest on it here http://connecticutbloggers.com/what-is-pinterest-and-how-to-use-it/
Thank You Sweetie. This is exactly what I need instructions with pictures. 🙂
I’m really hoping to win this one!
What a cool sweeps! Very generous of Starbucks! I hope to be one of the lucky ones…
Keeping my fingers crossed on this one!
Where do I find the Pinboard URL,Board is done…thanks!
what sort of pictures to pin?? anything that Is Possible? eg sports and other stuff that we do?
Can we use starbucks logos in this? or does it have to be personal pics with starbucks coffee in hand
anyone entered this?
Ah man, took awhile to do, but done!!! Good luck all!!! I don’t even drink coffee, wife does though, hoping to win it for her! 🙂
Good luck to all!!
Anyone hear anything, yet?
I was wondering the same thing!
Me too! I haven’t seen anything about anyone winning, and I’ve even been checking the Starbucks Facebook page too.
Sigh…thanks!
Was this a spoof? No one won. So what does that say? Very disappointing. What does Sweeties have to say??
How do you know no one won? Did they say that somewhere on their site?
I’ve found with other Pinterest contests that it takes awhile to release the names of winners, sometimes its the day they say but usually if there is only one or two winners. With this many prizes and probably a lot of entries it woulndn’t be odd to have to wait a week or two to hear of winners.
I found this in the rules:
13. Winner List: For a winner list, visit http://bit.ly/Ug9vbs. The winner list will be posted
after winner confirmation is complete.
The winner list isn’t ready yet. Undoubtedly, because of the number of winners and the time it takes to confirm them all, as Gena suggested. I just need need to be a little more patient. Lol!
I just saw on a blog that a person was notified via email that they won one of the verismo systems on Oct. 22, I don’t have any more other information than that…maybe they are starting to notify people a little at a time?
I have seen two winners post so far – both on 10/22. Nothing else yet. It seems people are hesitant about entering Pinterest sweeps – they find it too difficult, so I am not sure there will even be 400 entries…….
I got my email notification yesterday! So excited! My biggest win since I started this two months ago! Thank you Sweetie for posting this one! I am so excited! Says 8-10 weeks until I receive it!
Congrats Dina! Let us know how you like using it!
I entered, but didn’t get a notification email. There should be a lot of good sweeps coming soon with the holidays.
Don’t feel bad Foster, I entered too, but you are right, there are going to be some cool holiday sweeps coming soon so Good Luck Everyone!
I am surprised that only 2-3 people have reported recieving an email. There are barely 400 who have entered so Sweeties site should have had more coming up saying they recd. an intimation. I’m eagerly waiting and nothing yet !!! Unless they are sending out the emails in batches who knows. I reeeeeaaaaly want this win !!!
Wish it was a possibility about picking in batches, I thought so too, but I read on a pr blog for Starbucks that the winners have been contacted as of Oct 22…I was kind of hoping for this for Christmas, lol, but there are other sweeps out there, Sweetie post tons every day so that should keep everyone busy…you may even win one from some other sweep…it’s possible!
I just read a post in which someone was notified just yesterday, October 24th. Still hoping!
I didn’t get an email :(. Pinterest sweeps are a lot of work, I’m very hesitant to enter them do the time involved.
Congrats to the winners.
Winner’s are now posted. Sadly, I am not one of them! http://bit.ly/Ug9vbs
only 320 names have been posted on the site. does that leave us any hope????
Do you have a link to the page where you see the names
http://bit.ly/Ug9vbs is the link
Well, it does say partial so maybe it’s not the final list.
I got an email on 10/29 saying I won!
Congratulations!!!!!!
