Congratulations to Rbibeau, Teter, Doreen B, Darrell, and Jim Harstad. You’re all monthly winners in our Year of the Pig writing contest. That means each of you has won 1000000000 Bamboo Bucks.
Oh, sorry, my finger got stuck on the 0 key. You’ve actually each won 10 Bamboo Bucks, which is still a lot of Bamboo Bucks if you don’t spend it all in the same place.
Oh, sorry, you do have to spend it all in the same place. You can only use your saw-bamboo-buck in our online store. Just let Joy know you’re a September winner when you check out. And make sure you use your 10 bucks by October 1st.
Oh, sorry, I forgot the 3. You have until October 31st to cash in. Unfortunately that means you can’t use the 10 bucks away for Halloween, unless you’re like me. Mean to trick-or-treaters.
Ho! Five winners. Let’s see. That’s 10 + 9 + 1 + 8 + 2 + 7 + 3 + 6 + 4 = 5 + 5 + 4 + 6 + 3 + 7 + 2 + 8 + 1 + 9 = Whoa! I hope we don’t break the bank. Nah, fortunately Bamboo Bucks do grow on a tree. The founders of Bamboo Ridge planted it way up in Tantalus back in 1978, knowing that one day Bamboo Bucks would be worth something. I go up there each month to do the harvesting.
By the way, the wood is good for all kinds of things like Bamboo Buck pens, and Bamboo Buck bracelets, and Bamboo Buck bowls, and Bamboo Buck furniture, and Bamboo Buck chopsticks, and Bamboo Buck yoyos, and Bamboo Buck surfboards. The list goes on. Trust me. I built my whole house out of Bamboo Buck wood. You should see my toilet.
Anyway, congratulations to all of you and keep writing. Remember, the Bamboo Buck tree blooms all year, so we’re ready for more winners all the time.
