250 free business cards!

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

Our friends at UPrinting are giving us and you a nice present for the new year: 250 business cards!

I have been ordering business cards from them for a while now, and have never been disappointed with what I have gotten for myself and my clients. I refuse to tell my clients how little I pay for the printing, because every where I go, I get compliments on them! (They are the 2″ square ones). So, I let them give me a box of cards for myself in return for giving a box of cards to you.

Here are the details:

Giveaway Prize: 250 Business Cards for one (1) lucky winner

Size: 2 x 3.5”, 2 x 3”, 2 x 2” (square card) or 1.5 x 3.5” (skinny card)

Paper: 14 pt gloss cardstock, 14 pt matte cardstock or 13 pt recycled uncoated cardstock

Shipping: Sponsored bloggers and Winners have to pay for shipping

Eligibility: Limited to US Residents due to shipping costs.

To enter: Comment below. For a second entry retweet the giveaway with “@purpleurbia @uprinting #giveaway” in it somewhere. Contest ends on the 18th.

I’ve seen it all before.
