ANNOUNCEMENT: SPAM Macadamia Nut Winners!!!

Read our review of SPAM Macadamia Nuts here.

To many, winning a can of SPAM macadamia nuts from some overweight blogger in the middle of the Pacific Ocean who writes reviews in his underwear may not seem like a win. But five lucky Impulsive Buy readers now have to opportunity to find out if it truly is. Here are the five winners of the SPAM Macadamia Nut giveaway and their comments:

kristen – “I love Spam.”

jperonto – “Interesting flavor. Send them here! :)”

Marc – “Okay.”

Nicole – “http://www.buzzfeed.com/scott/spampersand. Spam and punctuation marks. Our fair civilization has progressed!”

Mary – “Spam nuts”

Congratulations to all the winners and thank you to everyone who participated.

PRIZE DRAWING: Because All Of You Aren’t Willing To Fly Thousands Of Miles To Buy SPAM-Flavored Macadamia Nuts

After reading TIB’s review of SPAM-flavored macadamia nuts, some of you were puzzled by the idea of a mystery meat-flavored nut. Some of you were disgusted. And some of you were like, “Hell yeah! I gots to get my hands on that shit!”

If you want some, here’s your opportunity to win some. The Impulsive Buy is giving away a 4.5-ounce can to five lucky readers.

Now some of you might not want SPAM-flavored macadamia nuts, but that shouldn’t stop you from entering because the SPAM coating comes right off under cold water, leaving you with regular macadamia nuts.

To enter this prize drawing, leave a comment with THIS post. Say whatever you like: A haiku about how much you love SPAM, a sonnet about how much you hate SPAM, the letter M or your favorite line in Return of the Jedi (which is probably “It’s a trap!”).

Please don’t forget to fill out the email field because I’ll be emailing the winners for their mailing addresses. The Impulsive Buy will stop accepting entries on Sunday, January 24, 2010 11:59 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time. Only one entry allowed per person and it’s open to everyone who’s 18 years old or older.

Good luck and may the Force be with you!

PRIZE DRAWING: Because None of My Carl’s Jr.’s Are A Participating Restaurant

I have a coupon for a free Carl’s Jr. Grilled Chicken Salad, which I received from the fine folks at Carl’s Jr.

I was going to use this coupon to purchase one of the new three salads in order to review it, but none of the Carl’s Jr. restaurants in my area offers them. Now I could give this coupon to a homeless guy as a cruel joke, since he also can’t use it, but my karma is at an all-time low and I need to improve it, so when I’m reincarnated I don’t come back as a cockroach or an even lower life form — a cast member on MTV’s Jersey Shore.

So to help with my karma, I decided to give away this coupon to a lucky Impulsive Buy reader who lives near a Carl’s Jr. If you don’t know if a Carl’s Jr. is nearby, visit their website. But also make sure they offer the salads. This coupon can’t be used at a Hardee’s.

Please don’t forget to fill out the email field because I’ll be emailing the winner for their mailing address. The Impulsive Buy will stop accepting entries on Sunday, January 17, 2010 11:59 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time. Only one entry allowed per person and it’s only open to those 18 years old or older, who, again, live near a Carl’s Jr.

Good luck!

Fine Print: The Impulsive Buy promises your email address will not be used to send you stupid press releases that you don’t even care about. Not even a little. The Impulsive Buy also promises your mailing address will not be used to send you my credit card bills. Bribes will not be accepted. The Impulsive Buy will not be responsible for lost mail, damaged mail, or not have a participating Carl’s Jr. near you.

So…Um…Yeah…TIB Version 4.0. Or It Could Be 5.0. I Lost Track.

Welcome to the new Impulsive Buy!

Who knew being pissed off at people would make me want to change the look of TIB? Off and on for the past 48 hours I’ve been tweaking a premade WordPress theme to my liking, because I’m too poor to afford a WordPress theme designer. I like the way it turned out, although for the past two hours I’ve been trying to fix some strange bug that wouldn’t show the comments. It made me kind of crazy and cry a little, although it’s been awhile since I’ve shouted all seven words you can never say on television within 60 seconds.

Everything seems to look good in Firefox, Safari and Chrome. If things look weird in your browser, please let me know. Unless you have Internet Explorer 6, if you do, I’d recommend upgrading to IE7, Firefox or one of the many other browsers better than IE6.

So what’s new besides the look?

The ability to reply to other comments. I enjoy replying to comments and I know some of you do too, so now it’s easier without having to go “@so and so.”

It’s now easier to share posts on Facebook, Twitter and Digg. On the main page, there’s the ShareThis button, and on each post page there are individual icons for your favorite social media sites.

You can also easily access TIB’s Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, YouTube and iTunes pages.

Um…I think that’s it.

I hope you folks like the new look.
