Naming Contest Winner Chosen!

Thanks to everyone who submitted an entry (or seven) to my "name the new feature" contest! The deadline has passed and after much wailing and gnashing of teeth, I've finally settled on a winner! If you've just started reading my blog this week, I'm starting a new blog feature where I'll review various products and post my opinion...

My criteria is the product needs to make life easier, be worth the space it consumes, and is a good value for the money. If you have a product(s) you'd like to submit for my review, here are the guidelines:

1. Simply send me a sample of the product(s) along with any marketing materials you feel are important. To get the mailing address, email me: Monica(at)CatalystOrganizing(dot)com.

2. Please send the item(s) via UPS, FedEx, or USPS, specifying NO SIGNATURE requirement. There is not always someone here to sign, and I'd hate for your package to be sent back to you.

3. Be sure to include retail pricing information with the product.

Products I receive cannot be returned to you, so please don't send me anything you need to get back. Also, I can't be responsible for any items that may get lost or stolen en route to me. For my review, I'll take photos of the product to post on my blog unless you provide me with an electronic photo(s) to use along with permission to use them. Thanks to those who have already sent me your products for review... they are in the que and I'll be posting my first review soon!

Be aware that my reviews will be impartial and will reflect only my honest opinion. That being said, it's only my opinion, so if I say something about your product that is incorrect from a factual standpoint, please correct me. On the other hand, if I say something you disagree with, remember that it's only my opinion, and it's possible that I'm totally full of it. It's happened before.(shocking, I know)

Now the moment you've all been waiting for.... (drumroll please)

The winners of the naming contest are Amy and Paul Chiano, from Plymouth, Massachusetts! They emailed their submission -- actually they emailed a few of them -- and I chose The Check-Out Line. I thought it was clever because I'll be checking out the products to see if I like them, and then if you choose to buy, you'll be going through the check-out line yourself. Thanks for a creative submission that makes perfect sense!

When I get back from New York this week, I'll be sending Amy and Paul their brand new Dymo Letratag Labeler and three label tapes to get them started labeling everything in their house!  Congrats to Amy and Paul and a big fat THANK YOU to everyone who submitted names, whether you posted in the comments section or sent me an email! I appreciate your support and I can't wait to get The Check-Out Line filled up with reviews!
