Sam’s Club’s Patio Perk Up Contest
The weather is getting warmer and the sun is shining bright… that’s right it’s time to get outdoors and enjoy those patios. It’s time to fire up those grills and get the party started!!!!
My family and I love hanging out on our patio and spending time together. Nice cold glass of iced tea or lemonade, the beautiful sound of the bug zapper keeping the mosquitoes at bay….what could be better!
So….was Reagan in office the last time your patio was part of the family fun? Is your patio tired and sad looking? Do beverage containers double as lawn furniture (flash back to those college days and my cool beverage box furniture, LOL)? Do you dream of having a gorgeous patio so you too can be the host with the most? If you answered yes to any of those questions, you are in luck!!!
Starting today, April 15th, 2011 – April 22nd, 2011, Sam’s Club is having a Patio Perk Up Contest. The patio make over will consist of a brand new patio furniture set and grill. The Grand Prize is valued at $2500!!!!! Check out all the beautiful patio furniture sets here at SamsClub.com. My favorite is the Palm Key… of course because it’s my favorite color, green!

How to enter:
Head over to Sam’s Club’s Twitter page and become a follower. Next, dust off that camera you got for Christmas and start taking some photos of your patio. After you have taken the perfect picture, create a tweet that includes:
- The hashtag “#PatioPerkUp”
- The Twitter handle “@samsclub”
- A link to a photo of their home patio that is in need of a makeover
The easiest way, in my opinion to link a photo to a tweet is to use the free Twitter App called TwitPic. Just create a free account using your twitter account and they walk you through in 3 easy steps how to send a tweet with a link to your photo with their service. Really easy. Just remember to include the hashtag and copy Sams Club on your tweet per the directions above.
Here is an example of what your tweet may look like:
