Contest Corner’s first-ever Twitter party was tonight and it was a big success! We had so much fun tweeting with everyone and swapping “Sweeper” secrets, tips for winning giveaways, and dishing on our holiday shopping plans. We had a great turnout, with 1,499 tweets generating 2,107,343 impressions and reaching an audience of 110,358 followers within the past 24 hours. We also became the number 2 trending topic for the Portland area. Nice!!

We gave away some wonderful prizes tonight totaling $345.34! Check out our awesome sponsors on Twitter:

And we’re not done with the prizes yet – we still have the $25 Amazon gift card pre-tweet winner to announce:

Congratulations to Tamar on winning the $25 Amazon gift card in our pre-tweet giveaway! This is Tamar’s second Contest Corner win – they also won the AM Skin Repair giveaway back in March!

Also, I had to share this screenshot because it was just too funny. I was about to tweet proudly that I had made it through hosting a Twitter party without being sent to Twitter jail…and that very tweet ended up sending me to Twitter jail. HA!! That’s what I get for gloating!!!
