UPDATE: We’re updating this promotion to reflect our new kwiry shortcuts product.  See here for details.

If you send in a kwiry using the Netflix or Amazon shortcut, you’ll be eligible for our weekly random drawing.   It the winner is a user who used the Amazon shortcut, we’ll buy the item that they were looking for (under $25).  If the winner uses the Netflix shortcut, we’ll buy that kwiry user 1 month of their Netflix service (under $25).  Full rules are here.

So start kwiry’ing with those shortcuts!

OLD PROMOTION INFO

Starting today, you have the chance to receive a free book, movie or music from kwiry, every week! Every Wednesday between now and the end of June, we’re going to randomly pick a kwiry about a book, movie, or music, and the person who sent it in will receive the item as a gift from kwiry!

Here’s how it works: Anytime you send a kwiry for a specific book, movie or music (song or album) you are automatically entered. The more kwirys like this that you send, the more chances you have to win (yes, you can kwiry your entire Amazon wishlist if you want). Best of all, you don’t have to register or sign up for anything new, just keep using kwiry with a little bit of extra formatting.

Eligible kwiry format: You must include one of the words: book, movie, or music in your kwiry along with the full title of the item. For example, a valid kwiry could be Book Kite Runner, or Spiderman 3 Movie, or Justin Timberlake sexy back music (upper or lower case are both fine). You can enter as many times as you wish with different books, movies and music, but you can’t repeat the same title within a week.

Prizes: the maximum cost of the item must be $25 – sending in: “music Led Zeppelin Complete Studio Recordings” will not fly.
OK: Not OK:

If your kwiry is chosen, we will email you (using the address you used to set up your kwiry account). You can elect to receive your item in one of two ways:
-We buy it and mail it to you. In this case, we will need your mailing address (we don’t sell/distribute lists or any private information).
OR
-You send us your Amazon username and we’ll buy it from your wishlist. Amazon will send it to you directly using the default address in your Amazon account.

That’s it; easy, convenient, and simple (just like kwiry). The best part about this freebie program is you don’t have to do any extra work to get it, and it works with the stuff you kwiry on a regular basis anyway. Only now you might just get a little gift in the mail for your texting!
