Got a Good Photo? Win $100 Gift Certificate
As you look outside your office window today, you're likely overtaken by the sheer beauty. Blowing snow. People hunched over, freezing, trying to walk into a 30MPH wind. You're probably reading from the script of American Beauty:
Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it... and my heart is going to cave in.
Or, maybe you're just thinking "Oh f#@!, I have to drive home in this s*$#."
Either way, we're here to lift your spirits.
If you'd like to be eligible to receive a free $100 gift certificate to Duo, send us a great photo. It can be a photo of anything. A person. A place. A thing. But let's keep it clean.
Whoever sends the best Buffalo-related photo - the most interesting, captivating and/or funny photo of Buffalo people, buildings, or vistas - will receive the $100 gift certificate. Send your photo to contest@buffalorising.com.
Submissions are due by Friday at 10am and we'll announce the winner on Friday afternoon. We'll likely be repeating this content weekly, so stay tuned.
