Old Navy Style Council: Bundle Up Bash!

As a member of the Old Navy Style Council, I was provided with an opportunity to host an in-store party with 3 friends.  Upon receiving the opportunity myself along with my friends wanted to do something different with our opportunity.   Instead of actually sampling the items, we wanted to give one of our friends a great Christmas gift.  Our friend Jessi had her son 3 months premature and he is still in the hospital.  In the spirit of the season we chose to shop in our local Old Navy and gift her with the experience of Crowdtap.  We were able to each purchase her a complete outfit with accessories.   It was a really great experience to use our Crowdtap sample share to help someone else.  Additionally, we each bought ourselves something really great in Old Navy also.  I purchased the navy and white polka dot blouse.  And several of my friends chose the pink and white polka dot sweater and another chose the cheetah sweater.   Overall, it was such a rewarding experience to be able to share the gift of Old Navy and Crowdtap.  I felt so great giving a gift to a selfless individual such as Jessi who is striving to be able to take her baby boy, Conrad home soon.

The Event:
On December 5, 2011

I hosted a party with 20 of my closest pals.  We danced and sang to so many Abba classics.  It was more than just an experience.  So many of the guests commented that they were going out to buy the game.  Truly it was a successful gathering and I would like to thank Crowdtap and Ubisoft for the awesome opportunity.

Crowdtap Sample Share:Turn Heads this Winter in Old Navy Outerwear!

Recently, I took part in Crowdtap's Turn Heads this Winter in Old Navy Outerwear.  The sample included 1 free coupon for myself as well as a friend.  I chose my mother as my friend to bring along.  I am really glad that I did.  She is a retired educator and she does not invest in shopping for herself.  This was a really great way to get her a new winter coat and bring her fashion sense more current.  I really had a good time trying on coats with her.   It was my opportunity to give something to someone who is so selfless.   Overall, I am really grateful to have taken part in Crowdtap's sample share.  This was my third Old Navy Sample Share.    Previously, I received free jeans, and an accessories party for five of my closest friends.  This was by far my favorite sample share, because who gives you a coupon for a free winter coat?  The cashier in the store was absolutely confused by the coupon.  She thought that it was buy one get one free.  I had to read it to her....no, no...a free coat for you and one for a friend.  She was in amazement when she scanned the coupon and the receipt read $0.00.   It is the best feeling in the world when you can get a quality item for absolutely free.   I chose a green pea coat and my mother chose a grey toggle jacket with a hood.  She was absolutely obsessed with getting a jacket with a hood.  I tried to get her to try something a little more radical, but she was still stuck in her typical look.  But she was very happy with the look that she chose.   Best thing of all she has become a Crowdtap member.
