This month we had something very interesting happen with our contest. I’m compelled to talk about it because I’m worried it’s going reflect badly on our contest validity.  A few days ago I chose a product review to post on Facebook.  I did it for SEO value and to keep some activity on our Facebook page.  In the post, I wished the reviewer good luck in our contest and in my mind thought it would be crazy if he won.  Today I got an email from Aaron who runs our contest, telling me he ran the contest and applied the store credit. To my absolute dismay the winner was the same review I had just posted on Facebook.  I thought Aaron was playing a trick on me but he assured me the contest was run at random.org the same way we always do (see process below).  Out of hundreds of reviews, we randomly picked the same review I posted on Facebook as the winner of our contest.  I want to assure everyone that we run the contest with integrity and never influence the outcome to favor any customer or particular review.

Dan G. from Crescent City, CA had luck on his side. Dan posted 5 reviews in the month of December. His winning review was for a Wiha IPR4 Precision Pentalobe Screwdriver.

Dan had this to say about the Wiha Pentalobe Screwdriver he bought:
“I’ve been searching for high quality pentalobe drivers for our macbooks, I’m so glad Wiha has released these.”

Congratulations Dan! Thanks for leaving product reviews at kctoolco.com.

Wondering how we choose the winner? It’s nothing fancy. We export all of the reviews into an excel spreadsheet and use random.org to generate a random number. The corresponding numbered line on the spreadsheet is the winner.

Good luck next month!

It feels better to give than receive! Certainly you have heard that expression before and we were feeling it around the shop at KC Tool today as we prepared to draw the first of many winners in our monthly giveaway.

Each month we give a $50 KC Tool gift certificate to one of our customers who left a product review in that month. The gift certificate is applied to your customer account so you can use it next time you make a purchase from KC Tool.

The more reviews you leave, the better your chances of winning. However, As Ross U. from Staatsburg, NY just found out, it only takes one to win. Ross purchased a 7 pcs torx driver set for $14.58, left one review and won himself $50 worth of free tools. What a lucky guy!

Ross had this to say about the set he bought:
“I needed a #6 Torx to take a laptop apart and ….put it back together. Nice set. small bits that fit into the handle. Arrived promptly. Thanks alot”

Congratulation Ross!

Well, we got it all right except the day!  National Hot Dog Day was yesterday!  I had this planned out last week but somehow I got the wrong day in my mind.  Whoops.  It was still a nice break from work and a fun time.

Here is how I enjoyed it. I keep it simple. Two dogs, Fritos, and a DP 🙂

I hope everyone has a great day and continues to enjoy the summer!
