Giveaway Time! Cool Neatoshop Zombie Clock Could Be Yours!

How would you like to own this unspeakably cool zombie clock? Well, it could be yours – very, very easily. Thanks to the marvellous chaps over at The Neatoshop we have one to give away. What’s more you get to choose an additional nerdy prize worth up to $25.

Created in tough urethane resin, the Sculpted mantel clock features a zombie eating a brain and is handcrafted with amazing details - a truly artisan piece created by Old Art Fabrications. The clock has quartz movement and is accurate to +/- 1 second per day and no two are exactly alike - paint details may vary as these are hand painted.

So, do you want it, need it, must have it? Here’s what you have to do!
  1. Go to the Neatoshop and choose an additional prize - priced at no more than $25. Make a note of its name and its url.
  2. Head over to the fabulous Kuriositas Facebook Page and locate the competition there (it will be at or near the top).
  3. Make a comment under the competition post, giving yourself the next consecutive number, stating the name of your desired additional prize and its Neatoshop url .
There is an example on the competition post but by the time you get there a number of people should already have made their entries so you will get it!

The draw will close at 6pm GMT on Saturday 27 August.

The prize winner will be chosen from the True Random Number Generator – starting at number 2 (number one is an example) and ending with the last number listed in the comment section by the last entry at the close of the competition. So remember to take the next number in the comment section otherwise you will not be eligible!

In the meantime, while you wait and see whether you won or not, why not see what other fantastic and unusual items there are over at The Neatoshop? Don't worry if you don't live in the US - overseas orders are welcome!

Neatoshop Competition Prize Winner

The wonderful Neatoshop recently gave us a prize to give away – a fantastic tentacle doorstop.  We ran through the competition through our Facebook page and had a record number of reader responses there – thanks Neatoshop!  The winner, chosen by a random number generator was Ben Henderson.  Ben was kind enough to send us a picture of himself with his prize which we couldn’t resist sharing with you!  It’s good enough to use for a caption competition, but we will try to resist that temptation!

We are glad you are (self evidently) enjoying your prize, Ben! Thanks, too, to the folks at the Neatoshop.  If you think this tentacle doorstep is cool, use the link here or simply click on Ben’s picture to take you to a cornucopia of fabulous fun fings (sorry, just had to run with the alliteration there – besides, we’re based in London).

Giveaway Time! Cool Neatoshop Tentacle Doorstop Could Be Yours!

Neatorama has been one of my favorite blogs since I was knee high to a bloghopper and I have spent many happy an hour browsing the Neatoshop where there is all manner of wonderful and wacky must have objects. I would say that it’s a great place for finding gifts for others and I would not be wrong, but I tend to end up buying for myself more than anyone else!

However, this time I have something to offer you! Simply visit our Facebook page and find the tentacle doorstop. Make a comment that says yes please underneath it and I will enter you in to a draw to win this great prize! The winner will be announced o 10 June – and you have till Saturday 9 June to enter.

If you just can’t wait that long, then you can always get one from the Neatoshop. Father’s Day is coming up so you can always use that as an excuse to peruse but there are plenty of ideas for friends and (other members of the family too). My current favorite has to be slicey the pig – see the picture above. Click here to visit the Neatoshop – or the picture!
