Jewelry Company to Give Away $1500 Necklace Via Twitter Trivia Contest

A string of clues could lead your readers to a strand of pearls.   A Boston-based pearl jewelry company will list a series of pearl-related trivia questions on Twitter and people who send in all the correct answers have a chance to win a Museum Way Pearls black saltwater Akoya pearl necklace valued at $1500.

Here is how the pearl jewelry contest works:

1. Follow Museum Way Pearls on Twitter @MuseumWayPearls

2. Watch Tweets by @MuseumWayPearls on August 22, 2009, when they’ll post 10 pearl-related trivia questions throughout the day. The contest starts at 10am EST.

3. Record the answers as you go.

4. When you find the answer to the tenth question, head to Museum Way Pearls’ giveaway page at:  http://www.museumwaypearls.com/giveaway-enroll/.

Fill out the giveaway form and type all your answers in the comments section. The company will accept all entries for 30 minutes after the final question is posted on Twitter and then will randomly draw a winner (from the participants with all correct answers) for the necklace. (more…)
