You Could Win a $25 Gift Card to Elmer's Doghouse

Drop your business card in the Patch box at Elmer's before the end of the month, and you'll get our daily email newsletter, and a chance to win a gift certificate. It's a win-win.

Here at Patch, we’re all about the small businesses. And we’re all about bringing you the best community news we can, every day.

A couple of months ago, we figured out a way to combine those two things in one box. A green, plastic box with a hole in the top, actually. And for the past two months, we’ve put that green plastic box in the front foyers of local businesses around town, asking you to drop your business card in.

When you do, two things will happen. You’ll be signed up for our daily Patch newsletter, which includes links to all of the day’s stories, delivered free to your email inbox. It’s like getting a daily newspaper, but it’s free, and it won’t leave inky black stains all over your fingers.

But secondly, you’ll be entered into a drawing to win a $25 gift card to that month’s business. And this month, the business is on Route 25. A local mainstay – heck, a local legend – Elmer’s is a great place to go for a filling, delicious meal. And until the end of May, you’ll find our green Patch box right at their front counter.

So, let’s recap. Go to Elmer’s Doghouse. Have some great food. On the way out, drop a business card in our green Patch box. (What if you don’t have a business card? A piece of paper with your name and email address will work just fine.) You’ll be subscribed to our daily email newsletter, and entered into a drawing to win a $25 gift card to Elmer’s. Everyone wins.

And if you miss out on this month’s drawing, don’t worry. The green box will be at another Montgomery business next month. We’ll let you know where you can find it. Official rules for this contest are . Thanks for playing, and for reading Montgomery Patch.
