Apple Stores to give away Leopard T-shirts

On their standard Retail page, Apple has announced its retail stores will be open from 6:00pm to 10:00pm this Friday (an extra hour for many stores) to celebrate the "Leopard World Premiere." There will be "live demos" and the chance to "test drive" Leopard, presumably on the in-store systems. Best of all, Apple is giving away "a special edition Leopard T-shirt" to the first 500 "guests."

So how many of you are planning to be in line to snag one of those shirts?

TUAW Back-to-School Giveaway The End: TUAW T-shirt and more

This is the end of our fabulous ride through TUAW's Back-to-School Giveaway. We've had some laughs, haven't we? Today's prize is another TUAW t-shirt (in the size of your choice, provided you choose small, medium, large or extra-large). But to sweeten the deal we'll give you an Ambrosia pack and a copy of Awaken.

To enter, leave a comment on this post between 5AM and 11:59PM EST on August 30. Validate the comment for it to qualify, and only one per person please. Full rules on our TUAW Back-to-School Giveaway page. Good luck and thanks for reading!

EDIT: I fixed the date-- sorry folks!

TUAW Back-to-School Giveaway Day 11: TUAW t-shirt

Welcome to Monday, first day of the work week for those of us with such desk-chaining schedules. Today's prize is a way to brighten your Monday: a t-shirt! No, not a cool "Somebody's Got a Case of the Mondays" tee, like this one. It's our limited-edition TUAW shirt, the first of its kind, with supplies running pretty low at this point (we're hoping the winner wears a small, but we'll accommodate as we can). To sweeten the deal, today's winner also gets an Ambrosia pack, complete with t-shirt, cap, mug and neat-o pack of playing cards.

To enter, leave a comment on this post between 5AM and 11:59PM EST on August 27. Validate the comment for it to qualify, and only one per person please. Full rules on our TUAW Back-to-School Giveaway page. Good luck and thanks for reading!

UPDATE: Yes, we have tees in sizes S, M, L and XL! Also, this is the week we'll have the iPhone giveaway post-- stay tuned.

TUAW Back-to-School Giveaway Day One

Perhaps calling it a back-to-school giveaway is bad. Whether or not you're going back to school right now you're eligible to win one of our prizes. To be honest, there's nothing particularly scholarly about the prizes either. It's just an excuse to give away 14 rounds of prizes. For the next 14 days (excluding weekends) TUAW will give away 14 different prize packages. Some "packages" will be a TUAW shirt with some Ambrosia gear. One day will indeed be an Apple lunchbox, as seen at the Apple Store in Cupertino, aka the Company Store. And one lucky day will feature an iPhone as a prize.

The catch is that each day is a surprise, and each day is a completely new entry period. Again, limited to the 50 US states, you must be 18 and we insist on one entry per person per day, but with 14 chances your chances are that much nicer. Each day we'll open a new post for comments from 5AM-11:59PM. To enter, leave a comment on that post (make sure it appears, check your email). To see full rules, go to our TUAW Back-to-school giveaway page.

Today's prize? A TUAW shirt (we've got sizes XL, L, M and S) and an Ambrosia "swag pack" containing a shirt, hat and deck of playing cards. Tomorrow's prize? Oh, you almost had me. Stay tuned.

The TUAW tees are here

tuaw t-shirtsDelivered this morning by stork: the first run of our TUAW t-shirts! We'll be giving away about a dozen of these next week during WWDC (not all of which we'll give away on Monday night, so look for the prize patrol). And yes, those not attending WWDC will have a shot at winning a t-shirt later this year. We're not sure when and we're not sure how, but it'll happen.

To take a gander at the full shirt, check out the gallery.

Summit store t-shirt unboxing pics

Rainy Sunday news flash: Apple's packaging acumen extends even to giveaway swag. Our friend Chris over at Autoblog thoughtfully put together an unboxing gallery for his attractive, black, size XL t-shirt from the Summit (Birmingham, AL) store opening. I might have to get one of those shirts somehow, since I used to live in a place called The Summit Hotel.

It's no iPhone, but then again, an iPhone can't keep you warm in a nor'easter. Did I mention it's raining?

Widget Watch: destroy your productivity with the Threadless Vote widget

I have to admit: I'm a nut for Threadless. The t-shirt design submissions that actually go to print after voting can certainly be hit or miss sometimes, but they crank out enough to keep me coming back for more. As if combing their site for new threads isn't enough of a time-waster, someone decided to curse my productivity by creating a Threadless Vote widget that allows you to browse and rate submissions. You need to have a free account already created with Threadless, but after that minor step, you can go nuts with tossing in your two cents on which designs make it into their catalog.

Apple Store FlatIron Crossing Grand Opening report

I have emerged victorious from my first ever Apple Store grand opening, and I have to say: it was pretty cool. There was one heck of a line that ran far outside the closest mall entrance, and it was really cool to see people from all walks of life, including Dan Lurie from The Apple Blog and Jeff Gamet from The Mac Observer. My friend and I arrived around 8:15 am, and we were about 20th in line, though it picked up momentum shortly thereafter.

I've posted a photo set from the event to our TUAW Flickr account, so check those out if you want more proof of how crazy Apple fans can get for a Saturday morning grand opening. One minor complaint: I wish Apple would stop using "geek black" on their event shirts like the ones they handed out today. Aside from that, it was fun to get my Mac-geek on for the day, even if I couldn't afford to actually buy anything.
