\"Mountain<\/p>\n

Mountain Dew LiveWire. Originally released last summer. Re-released this summer. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not summer anymore, but they still sell it. Will probably be re-re-released next summer. I like it. I usually call it Mountain Dew orange. After drinking a Mountain Dew, I feel so xtreme. I want to do a 50-50 railslide on a skateboard, or do a tailwhip 540 on a BMX bike, or do a nac-nac backflip on a motorcycle. If given the choice between original Mountain Dew and Mountain Dew LiveWire, I would pick the original Mountain Dew.<\/p>\n

Okay, now that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got the mandatory review part out of the way, I can talk about the new prize drawing.<\/p>\n

About a month ago The Impulsive Buy held it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s first ever prize drawing<\/a>. We gave away six Oral-B Brush-Ups. <\/p>\n

We think the people who received them were very happy because these Brush-Ups are a good way to freshen their breath in case they ever found themselves in a spontaneous make out session in the back seat of a car.<\/p>\n

For our second prize drawing, we will be giving away SEVEN Wet Ones Kids Antibacterial Wipes, which won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t help you if you ever found yourself in a spontaneous make out session in the back seat of a car. <\/p>\n

Oh wait, now that we think about it… <\/p>\n

If you find yourself in a spontaneous make out session in the back seat of a car with someone who isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t your significant other, you can use the Wet Ones Kids Antibacterial Wipe to wipe away any lipstick or mask any perfume\/cologne, so that your significant other won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t find out that you had a spontaneous make out session in the back seat of a car with someone else.<\/p>\n

Anyway, we reviewed<\/a> them last month and here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s your chance to win one (1) Wet Ones Kids Antibacterial Wipe.<\/p>\n

To enter the drawing, just leave a comment for THIS review. Also, so that we don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seem like comment whores, you can also enter by sending us an email<\/a> with the phrase \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Wet Ones\u00e2\u20ac\u009d in the subject field.<\/p>\n

If you leave a comment, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t forget to fill out the email field, because we will be emailing winners for their mailing addresses. Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t worry about the shipping, we will take care of that.<\/p>\n

We will start accepting entries for the drawing on November 17, 2004. We will stop accepting entries on November 21, 2004 at 11:59 pm (Hawaii Standard Time). Only one entry allowed per person.<\/p>\n

Entries will be stuffed into a jar that used to hold mayonnaise and still smells like mayonnaise. Winning entries will be drawn from this jar and will probably smell like mayonnaise.<\/p>\n

For those of you who\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve never won anything in your life, here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s your chance to finally boost your self-esteem and be a winner, like all the competitors at the Special Olympics.<\/p>\n
