This will be a short post - more of an announcement really.

If you’re one of the folks that connected with use recently via Facebook or Twitter, then you already know that we just gave away a FREE Flexion to one of our Twitter followers. You can’t beat that...a FREE $55 trick just for staying connected with Elmwood Magic!

If you’re not connected - what are you waiting for?

These are fairly small groups, so your chance in winning is REALLY good! For 2011, we plan on doing a similar contest once a month via social media so there’s no better time than now to “like” our Facebook page or “follow us” on Twitter.

It’s free, fun, and takes only a few moments.

'Twas the day after Black Friday and the office was pooped.
Customers acted fast and DVDs they scooped.
The orders were processed as fast as could be.
The boxes were shipped out quick and promptly.
I looked at the mess that lay on the floor.
Boxes, tape, and packing material galore.
I said, "Should we clean up, this mess from today?"
The staff said, "Why bother? Cyber Monday is hours away!"

A few weeks back I wrote about a promotion we’ve been running with our new slogan. The Deliver the Impossible t-Shirt promo has been fun and there’s still time for you to earn $25 just for sending us a picture of yourself in our shirt. You’ll find the complete details here.

We’ve been adding some of the photos to our Facebook Fan Page and I must admit I grin like a little kid every time a new photo pops up in our box.

Thanks to everyone who has already sent in their pictures, I really appreciate it! But a special thanks goes out to my friend Mike Seege. Mike took the shirt with him on a trip to Vegas and sent me a bunch of great shots. His wife Jen is a VERY understanding woman. Here’s just a few...

That’s Mike with legendary magician  Norm Nielsen and Norm's wonderful wife, Lupe.

Yep...that’s Mike with Siegfried! Pretty cool, huh?

You can find his remaining shots, along with a few of the other pics we've received, by clicking here.

If you bought a shirt and haven’t sent us a photo yet (and there are a lot of you out there), PLEASE take a moment to snap a picture and send it on its way. We can't wait to see you!

We’ve decided to have a bit of fun with our new slogan and we’re hoping you'll join in! You may have read on the site that we’re running a special promotion this month in which you’ll earn $25 for sending us a picture of yourself in one of our new t-shirts. You can find the full details here. In short, you’ll get a nifty shirt and some extra cash for more magic goodies…all for just a picture of yourself.

Heck, it’s like being a celebrity!

Why are we doing this?

We’ve spent 17 years building relationships with customers all over the world. It’s an amazing thing that we can spend our days dealing with people from New Jersey to Japan, from Florida to France, from Nevada to Norway, and all points in between. Many of these people have become more than customers…they’ve become friends. We think that sort of community is worth sharing.

We hope you agree! This guy did...

Ok...we're kidding about that one.  But we REALLY do want pictures of YOU. Click here to get started!

I've always said we have some of the most loyal customers in the industry. We've been in business for over 16 years and many of our customers have been with us as long as I have! They come back again and again because they know we deliver exceptional service and can be trusted to get the orders out fast and accurately. They know we'll be there not just for the sale, but after it as well...to answer questions and insure that what they receive is what they need.

We sincerely appreciate that loyalty and that's why we are always looking for ways to help thank our customers for their support. On August 1st, 2009 we're launching another way to do just that.
