Cameron

Cameron, keep an eye on your email inbox. I’m shooting you an email shortly.

He wins his choice of coffee from Coffee Responsibly. Coffee Responsibly is the source for direct trade, fair trade, organic and other awesome coffees. It’s a win/win situation, you get great coffee, the farmers get a decent wage for their hard work and it’s coffee that doesn’t harm the earth.

Thanks to everyone that entered! I wish everyone could’ve won, but that definitely would’ve been beyond the budget for this contest. However, stay tuned. I’ve heard some rumors that there’s another giveaway in the works.

And remember, next time you’re looking for coffee to stop by Coffee Responsibly.

Are You The Coffee Responsibly Winner? is a post from: Daily Shot Of Coffee

So to celebrate the launch of the site and raise awareness of it, I thought we should do a coffee giveaway. I mean who doesn’t love coffee giveaways? Well, I suppose the people who don’t drink coffee, but they’re kind of weird you have to admit.

The Prize

The prize is your choice of coffee featured on Coffee Responsibly shipped directly to your door for free. You can choose from coffees from roasters like Barista On Duty, Kuma Coffee, Marley Coffee and more.

Your Chance To Win

Visit Coffee Responsibly. Choose your favorite coffee there.

[Required] Come back to this post and leave me a comment telling me which coffee you want and why.

[Bonus Entries] After you leave a comment, share this post with your friends on Twitter and like this post on Facebook. Each will get you an extra entry.

Pretty easy right? Just make sure you tally all of your entries via the Rafflecopter widget. All entries have to be received by May 17 at 12:01 am EST ! So hurry, this contest only lasts a day and a half.

The Fine Print

Winner will be chosen at random.

Value of prize is $20 or less, plus shipping.

Shipping only available to residents of the United States. If you live outside of the U.S. you can still enter, but will have to arrange for shipping. Sorry, but it gets pretty expensive to ship coffee out of the country, beyond the budget for this content.

Any questions? Good luck!!!
