\"Lipton<\/p>\n

Today we celebrate a milestone here at The Impulsive Buy. <\/p>\n

It’s our 50th review!!! <\/p>\n

Holy crap! Fifty reviews! <\/p>\n

We’re just as surprised as you are. None of us thought we would even reach five reviews. We thought we would get bored like we always do, like we did with the illegal iPod pyramid scheme and the O-Town<\/a> Fan Club.<\/p>\n

So to celebrate the fact that we didn’t get bored, we…<\/p>\n

What? The review? <\/p>\n

Awww, come on. Do I have to do one?<\/p>\n

Can I do a review where I devote very little time about the product and spend a lot of time talking about something else?<\/p>\n

We do that already?<\/p>\n

Okay, here goes the mandatory review. <\/p>\n

Lipton Green Tea with Honey Ice Tea. 99 cents. On sale. Weak taste. Needs more sugar. Low calorie. Comes in glass bottle. Do not drop bottle, it might shatter. Yadda, yadda, yadda. <\/p>\n

So where was I?<\/p>\n

Oh yeah. To celebrate the fact that we didn’t get bored, we will be having our first ever drawing.<\/p>\n

What are we giving away? <\/p>\n

We’re giving away Oral-B Brush-Ups, which we reviewed<\/a> a while back. We’ve got six of them left, so six “lucky” winners will each receive one (1) Oral-B Brush-Up.<\/p>\n

Yeah, we know…We’re cheap bastards.<\/p>\n

We were thinking about giving away Gmail invitations, like other blogs do, but we don’t have any. Actually, none of us here have even received an invitation. We think we’re going to be the last people in the blogging world to get one, which we don’t mind because we’re used to being the last for everything, like being picked for dodge ball and seeing the movie Titanic<\/a>, which some of us still haven’t seen. <\/p>\n

Added at 11:00 am – Okay enough with the rubbing it in. We know. Everyone has Gmail invitations, except us. By the way, thanks to those who sent some our way.<\/b><\/p>\n

To enter the drawing, just leave a comment for THIS review. Leave a comment that praises. Leave a comment that says how much we suck. Leave a comment about how much you love the McDonald’s Chicken Selects<\/a> buffalo sauce. Just don’t forget to fill out the email field, because if you win, we will be emailing you to get your mailing address. Don’t worry about the shipping, we will take care of that, no matter where you are.<\/p>\n

We will start accepting entries for the drawing on October 19, 2004. We will stop accepting entries on October 21, 2004 at 11:59 pm (Hawaii Standard Time). If you need help determining what time 11:59 pm in Honolulu is in your neck of the woods go here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Only one entry allowed per person.<\/p>\n

Entries will be stuffed into a box that will be waaay too big for the five entries we expect to get for this drawing and then the winning entries will be drawn from this box.<\/p>\n

So enter today!!!<\/p>\n

Fine Print: Each Oral-B Brush-Up is individually wrapped. We promise your email address will not be used to send you spam about Viagra or breast implants.
