Be Uncommon

Posted in: giveaways, reviews

Way back in June, a lovely lady from Uncommon contacted me to see if I’d like a (Free!) customized iPhone case before I traveled to BlogHer. Added bonus: I could give a custom case away to one of my lucky readers.

Yes, and yes.

The problem is, the US Postal Service hates Canada. No, really. Whenever friends from the States send me something in the mail it takes weeks and weeks (and weeks and weeks). The week before I left for BlogHer I realized that my case wasn’t here and I contacted my Uncommon contact (who shares my Maiden name, coincidentally) and she said that she would try to track down my package.

I got an email yesterday about the deadline for the giveaway and was sad that I couldn’t participate. But then! I checked the mail on my way home (we have community lock boxes) and my case had arrived!

Uncommon Case

Isn’t it great?

It’s way sturdier that my previous case and I can’t wait to show it to all of my fellow iPhone users at my office and in my life. (My husband wants one now.)

The fact that it arrived (Yay, USPS! A month later!) means that I also get to give away a custom case to one of you lovelies. And, if you live close to me (or are someone I send mail to), I have a bunch of 20% off coupons to hand out.

So, about the free case giveaway. Leave me a comment and tell me whether you will use your own photo/design or if you’ll use one of theirs and I’ll pick a lucky winner on…August 22nd.

Leave a comment! Get a free case!

DO IT.

So! I ran Random.org and got the number…2.

Oh, I love. I kinda like the idea of using my own design, all though, their designs are awesome too!

Very cool case…love the pic you chose. And yes…I would choose my own picture over anything else.
Isn’t USPS just fabulous!? :P

Nice giveaway! I would definitely use one of my own pics! I love how yours turned out :) I know what you mean about the US postal service. Boo! Thanks for the opportunity to get a free case.

I would use your photograph! (just kidding! Maybe!)

Comment by ChrisB on August 16th, 2011 @ 11:01 am

Love it! :)

I’d probably go with one of their designs – I’m not sure I SUPER-LOVE any of my own pics enough…

I am not sure what photo I would use but I would use one of my own. Would I use the girls….maybe, but I don’t know that I have a great photo of them to use together……hmmm…but I do now want one. :O)

Comment by domestic extraordinaire on August 18th, 2011 @ 6:25 pm

Is it too late! I’m undecided on what I would do.

Comment by Tianna Riemer on August 22nd, 2011 @ 3:19 pm

Fun! I’d use a photo of my new adorable baby (who also shares your maiden name)

Comment by Hillary on August 22nd, 2011 @ 3:26 pm
