• 'Win It' Wednesday: Crazy Rumors Lip Balm

    Written by PETA

    So you weren't invited to tea with Kate and Will? That's OK. You can still have tea and coffee stateside, and getting it all over your lips is completely encouraged. We're giving away a set of fun, natural, vegan Crazy Rumors lip balms in your choice of either "Perk" (coffee) or "Brew" (tea) flavors.

     

    To enter, just rearrange the letters in "Crazy Rumors fun, natural, vegan lip balms" to form a short, animal-friendly phrase. You don't have to use all the letters in the phrase, but you can't use any extras. The person with the most creative answer will win a set of four lip balms in the flavor of your choice. If you don't win, that's OK, too, because Crazy Rumors is offering PETA pals a 15 percent discount on its website through April 30, 2011. Just use the coupon code "PETA" (without the quotation marks) when you're checking out.

    The contest will end April 20, 2011, and the winner will be chosen April 22, 2011. Be sure to read our privacy policy and terms and conditions, as you're agreeing to both by commenting. No purchase necessary. Void where prohibited by law.

    Good luck!

  • 'Win It' Wednesday: Kathy Freston's 'Veganist'

    Written by PETA

    Kathy Freston is a savvy, stylish, and inspiring New York Times best-selling author and advocate for animals. Freston appeared on Good Morning America today to talk about her newest book, Veganist, which celebrates everything that vegan living offers—and has rocketed to the top of Amazon's bestseller list. And the two lucky winners of this week's "Win It" Wednesday contest will also be celebrating when they each score a copy of Veganist.



    Want to step into the winner's circle? Tell us how you're stepping toward—or as Kathy puts it, leaning into—a more humane lifestyle. Maybe you're planning to spend the month of March exploring the many different brands of vegan cheeses so that you can bid adieu to dairy cheeses by April? Perhaps you're signing up for vegan cooking classes? Or clearing out the last bits of skin from your closet?

    The two people whose entries show our judges just how far you're willing to lean will each win a copy of Veganist.

    The contest ends on March 2, 2011, and the winners will be chosen on March 4, 2011. Be sure to read our privacy policy and terms and conditions, as you're agreeing to both by commenting.
