The list of usernames/entries was put into Random.org and randomized 10 times. The first 2 names on the resulting list are the grand prize and runner up winners.

 

The grand prize winner of the Apple iPad Air 2 is... speeddiva

 

The runner up winner of Beats Solo 2 headphones is... bribri25

Rather than use foam peanuts, I'll use GD merch as the packaging materials for your prizes, including some items that nobody has seen yet :D

Which reminds me, I'm probably going to have some sort of "GD warehouse sale" in the next few months to clear out some merch from my basement.

I've got a lot of stuff including some older GD and BF t-shirts, hoodies and more. I'll basically be selling this stuff for the cost of shipping. More details soon :)

Congrats!  I hope you guys put those items to good use. :)

 

 

A lot of the time I was posting this season I forgot about the contest.  I was happy that I finally got over the 300 post mark this year.  Maybe by next year I'll reach the 500 post mark.

Congrats, speeddiva and bribri25! :)

 

I'm all in for the Gottadeal yard sale. I think there might be a t-shirt I missed one of the years' past. Gotta complete my collection ;) Also, you  can never have too much Gottadeal merch. Better than packing peanuts for your holiday gifting!

I was thinking the same thing.  It would resurface on my mind now and again when a new post would appear in that thread.  I had NO IDEA I'd had that many posts this year; although maybe some of those entries were due to x2 promotions.

 

And good thing for the runner up prize, or I wouldn't have won at all ;)
