Lending Club $100 Giveaway

Nickel — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 21:10:58 +0000

The good folks at Lending Club have offered to underwrite a $100 giveaway here on FCN. I’ll start by sharing the details of the giveaway. You can then read on for details about Lending Club.

In order to enter the contest, you must do the following:

Join Lending Club as a lender (it’s free!)
Leave a comment on this post (be sure to use a valid e-mail address)

Note: You need to go through all steps of the signup process such that you have a fully functional account from which you can lend or withdraw your winnings. Don’t worry, it only took me a few minutes when I did it.

That’s it. The reason that you need to register at Lending Club as a lender is that they will deposit the money directly into the winner’s account. You will then be free to either invest (i.e., lend) the prize money or withdraw it. That’s entirely up to you.

And now for the fine print… All entries must be received by 9PM on Friday, February 20th. I will then randomly select a winner, contact them via e-mail to get their Lending Club username, and pass that info along to Lending Club such that they can deposit the prize money in the winner’s account. As always, this offer is void where prohibited.

So… What are you waiting for?

Who is Lending Club?

In case you’re not familiar with them, Lending Club is a peer-to-peer lending operation that helps match people who need to borrow money with those that have money to lend. Here’s a brief description straight from the horse’s mouth:

Lending Club is a social lending network. Borrowers with good credit can get personal loans at interest rates they find more attractive than those available from conventional funding sources such as banks and credit cards, taking advantage of a streamlined process between the source of funds (lenders) and the borrowers who need those funds. Lenders get an opportunity to fund specific borrowers by investing in Notes we issue that correspond to specific borrower loans. The stated interest rates on Notes range from 6.69% to 19.37% (after deduction of our 1.00% service charge).

I’ve actually opened an account with them myself, but haven’t had a chance to make any loans yet. I plan on doing so, and hope to write a review about my experience sometime soon. Keep an eye out.

TurboTax and Quicken Giveaway

Nickel — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 13:30:17 +0000

The good folks at Intuit have provided me with three “financial packages” to give away to FCN readers. Each package comes with a Turbo Tax Deluxe online webcard (including one free federal and state preparation along with e-filing) and a copy of Quicken Deluxe Desktop. That’s right, you get both. In case you’re curious, here’s a link to my TurboTax vs. TaxCut comparison.

Since I have three of these packages, I’ve decided to do three different giveaways. While you can only win one copy, you’re welcome to try for all three. Read on for details…

Win by Commenting

For the first copy, simply leave a comment below telling me a bit about yourself (age, sex, marital status, geographic location, whether you have kids or not, or whatever else you feel like sharing) and/or how you found this site. On Tuesday evening, I’ll randomly pick a winner from all commenters.

Win by Tweeting

Win TurboTax & Quicken – Follow @fcn and re-tweet – Details: http://is.gd/gP4P – #fcnttq

Be sure to include the ‘#fcnttq’ tag at the end so I can easily find your entry. On Tuesday evening, I’ll randomly pick a winner from everyone who enters via Twitter.

Win by Subscribing

The last copy is reserved for RSS and/or e-mail subscribers. For the duration of the contest, I’ll be including a “secret” e-mail address at the end of each article in my RSS feed. Simply subscribe (if you haven’t done so already) and keep an eye out for the secret address. Once you have it, just shoot me a quick e-mail (just one) at that address. On Tuesday evening, I’ll randomly select a winner from amongst the messages I receive at that address.

The Fine Print

Entries will be accepted through 9PM Eastern on Tuesday, January 27th. I will contact the winners via e-mail and/or Twitter, so please be on the lookout, and please be sure to use a valid e-mail address. Note that the winners will receive their software directly from the PR firm that handles TurboTax/Quicken, so you’ll have to provide me with a U.S. mailing address (no PO boxes, please) that I can pass along to them. Void where prohibited. Good luck!

Tax Cut Giveaway Winners

Nickel — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 04:47:12 +0000

The Tax Cut giveaway is now over, and I’ve (randomly) selected the winners. Here on FCN, 77 people left comments. And the winner is… mbhunter!

Over on Twitter, there were only eighteen entries, so the odds were significantly better over there. And the winner is… @BlaineMoore.

Congrats to both of you. Please send me your mailing address ASAP and I’ll forward it to the Tax Cut fairy. Happy filing!

For the rest of you, I have at least one more giveaway in the queue, so be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed (or get it via e-mail) so you don’t miss out. You might also want to create an account on Twitter and follow me (@fcn).

TurboTax and Quicken Giveaway

Win a Copy of Tax Cut

Nickel — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 11:00:21 +0000

In honor of National Tax Advice Day (which was yesterday, whoops!) I’m giving away two copies of Tax Cut to loyal readers such as yourself. I’ve recently written (and solicited opinions) about the best tax software, and Tax Cut certainly has its share of supporters, so don’t miss your chance to get a free copy.

I’m doing this giveaway in two parts. For the first copy, simply leave a comment below between now and Tuesday evening at 9PM Eastern and I’ll randomly select a winner. Be sure to use a valid e-mail address when commenting.

For the second copy, I’m going to emulate my pal Jim and require that you follow me on Twitter (if you’re not already doing so) and send me a message (@fcn) containing a financial tip of some sort. For those that know I’m talking about, you can re-tweet this message for an extra entry.

Here’s an example of what your message should look like (be sure to include #fcntaxcut in your tweets and/or re-tweets so I can find them easily):

@fcn #fcntaxcut [Your financial tip here...]

Here again, I’ll be accepting entries until Tuesday evening at 9PM Eastern. Note that I’ll likely contact the winner via Twitter, so keep an eye on your account.

Note that the winners will receive their software directly from the PR firm that handles Tax Cut, so you’ll have to provide me with a U.S. mailing address (no PO boxes, sorry) that I can pass along to them. Void where prohibited. Good luck!

Another Giveaway Winner: The 5GB Microdrive

Nickel — Wed, 23 May 2007 10:01:00 +0000

Just a quick note to say that Dreamy1’s prize has arrived… She won the 5GB Microdrive. Unfortunately, she recently dropped (and broke!) her camera, so she couldn’t post a picture. As an aside, she’s also getting the shaft on her extended warranty coverage from Bank of America/Visa. Anyway, I encourage you to stop by, check out her site, and congratulate her.

What Would You do With a Bunch of Bricks?

The Bricks Have Arrived

Nickel — Tue, 22 May 2007 17:07:19 +0000

In case you haven’t heard, CleverDude was the lucky winner of my box’o'bricks. Being a good sport, he even posted a picture. Credit for the enclosed note goes to my lovely and talented wife, although he did decide to censor it. For the full message, take a look at this picture, which I snapped before shipping the prizes out to the winners.

Interestingly, Mr. Clever went to Home Depot just one day earlier and bought himself eight bricks for use around the house — if only he had waited, he could’ve saved a few bucks! Looking on the bright side, he and CleverDudette (a.k.a., Stacie of BuildingNutrition.com) now have a few spares for future brick emergencies.

Anniversary Giveaway Prizes On Their Way

Nickel — Fri, 18 May 2007 12:43:02 +0000

Just a quick note to say that I’m (finally) mailing the anniversary giveaway prizes today. In the interim, I thought y’all might enjoy seeing a picture of the prizes. To the winners: You won’t know what you’ve won until the package shows up on your doorstep. Again, I encourage you to take a picture of your own when you get your prize and post it online — I’ll happily throw a link your way if you do. Anyway, congratulations again to the winners, and thank you to everyone else for your support! As NCN would say, you guys rock. Oh, and thanks to Henry of BinaryDollar for serving as my inspiration on the box of bricks idea.

Update: Sadly, I was only able to fit five bricks in the box. However, it still weighed in at 19 pounds, 11.4 ounces! Given that I used a prepaid box, I was able to ship them out for $8.95 — otherwise, it would have cost over seventeen bucks.

Two Years of FiveCentNickel and a Big, Huge Giveaway

Nickel — Tue, 01 May 2007 12:00:43 +0000

Guess what? FiveCentNickel is officially two years old! That’s right, I published the first post on this site on May 1, 2005. In the time that this site has been live, I have published a total 985 articles (check out the archives!) and received 5,574 comments. Thanks to all of you for your contributions!

If you’re new here, you might want to check out my welcome page, and you might even want to subscribe to this site — it’s free, and you’ll get every word that I write automatically delivered to you. No fuss, no muss. Just easy access to via either RSS or e-mail.

Anyway, in celebration of this milestone, I thought I’d give away some prizes. But this time, I thought I’d up the ante and give away something a bit more substantial than what I’ve given away in the past. So, without further ado, here are the prizes:

1. iPod nano (2GB)
2. iPod shuffle (1GB)
3. USB Microdrive (5GB)
4. Encyclopedia of Financial Planning
5. Time is Money (Here’s my review.)

There are two main ways of entering…

First, anyone that leaves a comment at the end of this post will get a single entry into the giveaway. You just have to promise to tell at least one friend about this site — I’ll just have to trust you on that.

Second, if you have a website of your own, you can earn three additional entries by sharing FiveCentNickel with your readers. Simply write a review of this site (including a link to the front page, my welcome page, and this contest announcement) or dig through the archives, pick out an article that I’ve written and write an article of your own highlighting it or responding to it (be sure to link to the front page, the article itself, and this contest announcement).

Once you’ve published your article, drop me a line using my contact form (or e-mail me directly if you happen to know my address) — and be sure to include the url of your entry. That’s it. Write an article and receive three additional entries. And just to add a bit more incentive, I’ll also link back to all submitted articles.

And please note that your review doesn’t have to be positive — while I like hearing good things about this site, I want your honest opinion. Likewise, you don’t have to agree with me when you highlight or respond to one of my posts. Call me out if you wish. It won’t hurt your odds of winning.

So… You can earn multiple entries; one for leaving a comment and three more for publishing a review/response — note that you can publish multiple reviews/responses if you have multiple websites, and you’ll receive three entries for each.

Oh, and I’ll be accepting entries for the next ten days, through 8PM EDT on Friday, May 11th.

Just to keep it interesting, I’ve decided to throw in a booby prize, as well… One lucky (?) participant will receive a box of bricks shipped to their door in a USPS flat-rate shipping box (if it fits in the box, you pay the flat rate no matter how much it weighs!). But I won’t tell you which prize you won until AFTER you give me your shipping address…

The Rules:
1. Only one comment entry per person – I’ll be watching and will delete your entries if you cheat
2. Review/response entries must:
– come from established websites with substantial content
– be standalone posts of at least 100 words in length, not daily links, weekly roundups, etc.
– include links to the appropriate pages (see above)
3. You must notify me via e-mail if you choose to enter by writing an article
4. All entries must accompanied by a valid e-mail address
5. You can’t win more than one prize
6. U.S. mailing addresses only (don’t post it; I’ll contact the winner and ask)
7. While I promise to send the prizes, I can’t guarantee their safe arrival
8. I am judge, jury and executioner — all disputes will be resolved by me alone
9. This list of rules might grow, shrink or change at my discretion
10. Entering this contest implies agreement with these terms

H&R Block USB Flash Drive Giveaway

Nickel — Mon, 16 Apr 2007 12:16:10 +0000

Over the weekend, I received five 256 MB USB Flash Drives from FiveCentNickel sponsor H&R Block. They came preloaded with TaxCut Premium Federal + State, which will probably be useless to you unless you’re requesting a filing extension, but… They’re still pretty snazzy little thumb drives that you can wipe clean and use as you see fit.

Anyway, in honor of the end of tax season, I’ll be giving them away. Instead of handing them out all at once, however, I’ve decided to spread out the fun. So… Between now and Tax Freedom Day — April 30th, which is the point at which the average American will have earned enough in 2007 to cover their federal tax bill for the year — I’ll be giving away the drives one at a time. Winning is pretty easy; just keep an eye on this site and enter whenever you see a giveaway post.

For today’s giveaway, simply leave a comment at the end of this post sometime between now and 7PM EDT tonight. I’ll then randomly choose a winner and will notify that individual by e-mail. I’ll also publicly announce the winner when I post the next giveaway. Again, I’ll be doing this five times over the next two weeks, so be sure to check back regularly for your chance to win.

On your mark… Get set… Go!!!
