Fab Freebie: This Is Your Pilot Writing

***This giveaway  is now closed – see who won below! ***

Clearly I’m not the only one who loves a good writing utensil (and Target card) as this giveaway reached our 10,000 entry cap within just 24 hours. Nice work team! So that means we get to crown a winner early. That lucky writer is… Heather F (who “writes notes on the back of envelopes and then loses them. Argh.”) Congrats Heather!

This sounds kinda weird, but I’m very particular about my writing tools. So when the folks at Pilot noticed that we tend to write with their products, they wanted to thank us by passing some freebies along. But you know we don’t take them, so we’re paying it forward in the form of a $500 prize to one of you. Now, before you start figuring out what the heck you’re gonna do with $500 worth of pens – let me stop you. While they’ll keep your hands busy with a variety of pens and highlighters (even some erasable varieties) they’re also gonna let our lucky winner pick out $150 worth of Levenger notebooks and organizers (since we could all use a little organization this time of year). Oh, and to round out the $500 prize, how does a $200 Target gift card sound? That way you can pick up any other items you need to get 2013 off to a productive and organized start.

Pilot Pen Giveaway

  • PRIZE: An assortment of Pilot products plus $150 towards the Levenger notebooks of your choice and a $200 Target gift card (total value $500).
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “PILOT ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … your favorite way to take notes or scribble down a message. Do you always keep a ballpoint pen in your pocket or purse? Do you swear by pencils so that you can erase your misspellings? Or are you 100% digital and prefer to rely on phone apps and voice memos to keep you organized?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, January 16th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond specific areas (more on that here). This giveaway is open to the United States and Canada.
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

    I’m a big list person so we always keep a magnetic notepad on the side of the fridge where I can jot down grocery items as I think of them or anything else that comes up. The notepad usually has some silly message associated with it too…the current version is “Things I Mush Do,” courtesy of a trip to Alaska and the adorable husky sled dogs.

    I HAVE to write with gel pens. I’m an avid doodler, and anyone who knows me knows not to mess with my doodles.

    I carry a pen and small notebook at all times and write down any little thought that pops into my head as important. It’s always funny to see what I thought was important that day and remember the situation that made the thought come into my mind.

    Pilot me! I’m 90% digital, but the calendar in my kitchen is filled with all different pen colors to differentiate everyone’s “stuff.”

    PILOT ME! I’m “old fashioned” and digital doesn’t do it for me with the daily nitty gritty. I LOVE my pens and paper :)

    I keep lists in a little blue book I carry in my purse. Love to rifle through there and see all I’ve done and all I need to do.

    PILOT ME!! I love to write lists and thank you letters and notes and birthday cards. I love getting mail in the post that isn’t a bill. Funny how your heart goes pitter pat when you get a coloured envelope or a handwritten note in the mail. I love grocery lists to keep me on track. I love to do lists to feel that added accomplishment. I love writing poetry. Thank you YHL. xos
