In this issue: Congratulations
to Huguette English of Beaverbrook, NB who submitted
the winning caption to our Funny Caption Contest for the month of
March.
Huguette wins a 3-pack of Dunlop
Titanium Golf Balls.
Thanks to all who participated and please feel free to play in our
April
Funny Caption Contest, currently
underway, for your chance to win a pair of Blue Jays tickets
(100 level)!
To see the winning caption for March and to enter our current
contest, click here: As a side note, we've received enquiries from some of you wanting to submit your own pictures for our Caption Contest. To this we say "Bring 'em on!" Send us your funny shots of Uncle Fred stuck in the mud with his RV, Junior not looking so happy from being licked in the face by Rex, nude photos of your Ex (these won't be posted on the website but we'll enjoy them!). Email us your photos at Webmaster@GiftFinder.ca. If you prefer mailing us your photos, email us and we'll provide you with our mailing address. As another side note, we're running out of prizes to give away so we're asking for your help. Do you have any unwrapped gifts that you've won in a contest or received as a wedding gift that you don't want? Send them to us as a prize for upcoming contests. We will gladly pay the shipping and you will get full recognition as the one that supplied the prize for that month's contest. The prize can be as small as a baseball cap or as large as a plasma TV (Imagine the number of captions we would receive for that prize!). But seriously, if you're interested in assisting us, email us at Webmaster@GiftFinder.ca with the details of your prize suggestion and we will get back to you real quick with shipping arrangements and so on.
