4 Starbuck cards for the taking …

 

RAC’s Business Recovery Fund (BRF) is looking for their signs at Expo.  Be the first to find 1, 2, 3, or all 4 Business Recovery signs while in Las Vegas at Expo.

 

The contest is easy …

#1 — Take a picture of the sign

#2 — Post it to RAC Facebook page with the sign location (ex: Level 2, by restrooms)

#3 — Be the FIRST to post a picture and location to win a Starbucks gift card – there are 4 signs & 4 Starbucks cards

#4 — Even if you aren’t the first one to post – keep the pictures coming so we can see your crazy ideas including the BRF sign

 

There is only one rule … no moving of signs, or you will be on Santa’s naughty list next year. And we are 100% positive that a “Dear Santa, I can explain” letter won’t work.
