Plant A Tweet: Earn a $10 Lowe’s Gift Card on Twitter

Looks like I hopped on Twitter at just the right time.  I found a fun tweet from Lowe’s!  Right now they’re giving us the opportunity to earn a $10 Lowe’s gift card just for tweeting, or planting a tweet.  It’s kinda fun!  This is all very self explanatory, but here’s what you do:

• Go to the Plant A Tweet site.
• Click on the green button on top that says ‘Plant Your Tweet’.
• Build your tweet using symbols that resemble pieces of a flower (fun!).
• Hit ‘Compose Tweet’.
• Then you need to authorize the app to post and track your tweet and retweets.  You can remove it later.
• Sign into your Twitter account and follow the prompts.
• You’ll be taken back to the Plant A Tweet page to enter your mailing address, then click ‘Plant Your Tweet.’
• You’ll be given some options to earn extra points, like by following Lowe’s on Twitter.

The first 10,000 people to collect 50 points by May 29 will get a $10 Lowe’s gift card.  There are about 9500 left  as I’m writing.

Here’s how you can win:

HOW TO EARN POINTS: Entrants are able to accumulate points via social media activities on Twitter, Pinterest, and foursquare. The first ten-thousand (10,000) entrants to accumulate fifty (50) points by 11:59 p.m. ET on May 29, 2012 will be awarded one (1) $10 Lowe’s gift card.
