YOU Could Win an Invitation to Our New York City Tea Party!

This January, Bigelow Tea is having their first-ever Bigelow Tea Social in New York… and you could be invited!

On Thursday, January 21st, we’re gathering bloggers, Twitter users, Facebook fans and fellow tea drinkers together for a cozy cup of tea at one of New York’s tastiest restaurants.  There, from 5 to 7 PM, our guests can chat with Cindi Bigelow (and each other) about tea, try dozens of flavors, learn how our teas are made (and what’s really inside every teabag), and take home some free tea to help keep them toasty through the long nights of winter!

Blogging, tweeting, video and photos at the event are highly encouraged.  Plus, the evening will be videotaped by Creative Concepts and posted online afterward, so all attendees will have additional content to power their blogs (and tea to fuel their creativity)!

So how do you win?  Simple!

All next week (January 11-15) at noon, we’ll post a trivia question about Bigelow Tea both on Twitter and here on our blog.  (If you’re not already following us on Twitter, now’s a great time to do so!)  Guess correctly and you’ll be entered into a drawing to attend the Bigelow Tea Social.  All winners will be notified on the afternoon of Friday the 15th.

Good luck, and we look forward to seeing some lucky winners this January!

Note: You must be 18 or older to attend the Bigelow Tea Social.  In addition, Bigelow Tea will not provide transportation to the event — so if you can’t be in Manhattan on January 21st, hold tight; perhaps we’ll have another social in your neck of the woods later this year…

Guess Who Our New Spokesperson Is and Win Free Tea Chest (and Tea!) for the Holidays!

On December 7, Bigelow Tea will proudly announce the identity of our newest spokesperson — and we’re really excited!  It’s not often that we expand our extended Bigelow family of Joe Torre, Phil Simms and Terry Francona, but this has been in the works for over a year, and it’s going to be big, big news.

In fact, we’re so thrilled, we’re spreading a little extra holiday cheer!  If you can guess who our new spokesperson is, you’ll have a chance to win this Classic Tea Chest, with enough Bigelow Tea to keep you warm and toasty all winter long.  (Details below.)

Bigelow Tea “Guess Who?” Contest Rules:

1.  Starting at 12 PM EST on Nov 30, and continuing every day of the contest (Nov 30-Dec 4), we’ll post a new clue about our new spokesperson’s identity on Twitter.  (But DON’T GUESS YET!)

2.  Between 12 PM and 1 PM EST on Friday, Dec 4 — immediately after the 5th and final clue is posted — we will accept guesses as to the new spokesperson’s identity via Twitter. (No earlier and no later!)

3.  To be eligible, a guess must meet ALL of the following critieria:

  • It must be tweeted between 12 PM and 1 PM EST on Friday, Dec 4.
  • It must include the hashtag #GuessWhoBigelow
  • Entrant must be at least 18 years of age

4.  Entrants can guess as many times as they’d like to within that 60-minute timeframe on Friday, Dec 4.  However, multiple correct guesses from the same account will be judged as one correct guess during final prize allocation.  (For example, if user @Ziggy4576 guesses “Fred Flintstone” 40 times in 60 minutes, and Fred Flintstone happens to be the correct answer, user @Ziggy4576 will still only be entered once into the grand prize drawing.)

5.  Entrants can make as many guesses as they’d like to within the 60-minute timeframe, but each guess must be tweeted separately.  No multiple-name guesses per tweet (i.e., “Fred Flintstone, Donald Duck, Tarzan, Sleeping Beauty? #GuessWhoBigelow” would be disqualified, even if Tarzan were correct).

6.  Any guesses that fail to meet these criteria will be disqualified.  (We’ll be checking the timestamps on those tweets!)

7.  The Twitter usernames of all correct guesses will be entered into a random drawing for the grand prize.  The winner will be notified directly by Bigelow Tea.  The winner’s username, as well as the identity of the spokesperson, will be revealed in a Bigelow Tea blog post on Monday, December 7.

Got all that?  Good luck, and we look forward to tallying up all those correct guesses at 1:01 PM EST on Friday, Dec 4.

So fun to share with you a Boston program we are doing with Terry Francona. If you buy any box of Bigelow Tea at a Stop and Shop in the month of October, you are automatically entered into a sweepstakes. The Stop & Shop Sweepstakes winner gets to go to Fenway Park and share a cup of Bigelow tea with Terry and talk baseball for an hour.
