CPS Presents: the Unconventional Use of Packaging Contest

For those of you who don't know yet; earlier today we initiated a company contest.  I want you to read this so that you know how this contest will apply to CPS employees.  While CPS employees will not be eligible for the grand prize or the second place prize.  You are encouraged to participate, and are eligible to win a $100 amazon.com gift card.

You work with this stuff everyday, I know there are some good ideas out there so lets show them off.  Please send your entries to me and will add them to the contest!  Just think of what you could do with that gift card.  If it were me, I'd spend it on Slipper Genies for my kids, so they could clean up while making a mess.  Or you could finally buy that Uranium Ore that you needed for your homemade time machine.  Or if you want to endanger drivers and pedestrians everywhere you can always buy a Wheelmate steering wheel desk.

We'll I'll let you dream up all the wonderful things you could do with our products and leave the Amazon shopping to you.

Edit:
Here's the link to the contest announcement, because Sean is a crybaby.

      I see it, us Utah guys are a little unique and slow in some ways.

      Like they say, slow and steady wins the race... Unless it's one of those weird races that places an emphasis on speed.

      Gosh Ty. That "then read the CPS blog" comment really looked like you were angry. Excellent use of spacing to drive home the point. :)

      There is one now Sean. (imagine I did that spacing thing that I did earlier, it gives this comment greater effect.)

      I think Sean is referring to the fact that the above link in the main post appears to be referring to the wrong location (the month of September instead of the month of October).

      Correct (and not in the link currently) - http://www.containerandpackaging.com/blog/2013/10/cps-uupc/

      I see... Well my ego has been thoroughly bruised today... If you hear loud sobbing sounds coming from the bathroom please ignore them.
