About a month ago a company called TenBills.com approached me about their site. The sell $10 T-Shirts. A great price but what really makes them unique is that the T-Shirts are all created by T-Shirt lovers that are passionate about not only T-Shirts but they are art lovers, music lovers and just plain lovers.
This team has decided to create high quality shirts that they would love to wear and they think that others would love to wear them as well. Their online marketing so far is small. When they contacted me they said that they were introducing themselves to me because my blog didn’t specialize in clothing for men. Sure I’ve talked about T-Shirts before and I’ve even made a one myself with Zazzle.
When they contacted me I decided to engage them with a trade. I looked through their catalog of T-shirts and picked out two that I really liked and that I would wear on a regular basis.
I then sent an e-mail back asking for those two shirts and some prizes for a contest for my readers. They not only accepted the offer but are supplying me with 12 T-Shirts to give to you. I’ve been receiving e-mails from them since then and a brand new T-Shirt caught my eye so I bought it right away. I love it!
Now for the giveaway. The best part is, this is open to ALL my readers. That’s right, everyone regardless of location.
Because of TenBills.com generosity I want to do something special for these guys. They are high quality and they are passionate about what they do so I want to show them that my readers are also passionate people. If you are passionate enough then you might win one or a couple of these T-Shirts.

Right on! Now you know what one I’d like, in fact it’s the one your wearing. Not because your so cool, but because it’s also right up my alley, and that’s the Seize the Moment by Budi Satria Kwan. It’s really cool, and modified it would be a cool tattoo too! hehe

Wow! Really pretty shirts! I like the “This is a Blackberry” by Tishon Woolcock the best because I’m all about irony – that and those types of blackberries are the only blackberry I will ever have! Ha! π

I love all the shirts, but This is a Blackberry by Tichon Woolcock is very cool. Heading on over to FB and Twitter.
I put the URL in my facebook status update, and in a new tweet. I created an account at Shuttercal, but I can’t figure out how to make TenBills a friend there.
Elizabeths last blog post..Contest Round-Up
When you first mentioned TenBills.com, I went and checked them out. I really like the Seize a Memory
by Budi Satria Kwan shirt – only in the silver. I love the whole camera thing. I may not take and post pics as often as you do, but it’s still important to me. I’d like to be able to convey those memories.

Elizabeth,
On shuttercal, click Userlist, Then it will show you the alphabet. Click “T” and then go to TenBills. Click Tenbills to go to their page and underneath the photo is a message that says “add as friend’, click that. Easy Peasey!
Great shirts! There are several I like, but if I had to pick one, I’d pick “Birds of Spray” by Jason McKoy. Not only do I like the look of it, but I think the meaning behind it – the representation between graffiti and art – is wonderful.

Seize a Memory

I wish I had known about the website before Christmas. I have teenager nephews that I usually buy a t-shirt for. I’ll have to remember this site next Christmas.

Babas last blog post..Doing a Little Site Tweeking
I would want “Evolution of Flight” By Ken Quemuel.
I got divorced 5 years ago. My ex was a cop and marrine, and he was abusive and cruel. After 11 years of a terrible marriage of torment, I finally got the courage up to leave him after he beat our son (instead of me). On the day my divorce was final, my best friend bought me flying lessons. I had always wanted to learn to pilot a plane and it seemed so apropo that I fly as if with wings on the day of my freedom from that abusive relationship. That shirt would be a reminder to me of that day, my freedom and the courage it took for me to get there.

Leas last blog post..And yet another contest!
What a fantastic contest – and an awesome site! I’m so glad you introduced your readers to them. I absolutely love Push My Buttons by Budi Satria Kwan. It was a hard choice – there are several that I love and would wear until they are hole-y. π
As an artist, I hope to still be creating at 99! Who am I kidding? I hope I’m still living at 99. And I definitely have people who push my buttons. They are known as my offspring. As a single mom of 3, they definitely push my buttons – as well as the reason I must create – and honestly, are very likely the reason I doubt I’ll make it to 99.
Seize A Memory is awesome, also.
You go, Budi!! π
Thanks for the chance,
Katherine

I love the Push My Buttons t-shirt…though I’m not really sure why. I also love the Kid’s Pack t-shirts…my kids wear t-shirts EVERY day.
T-Shirt: Robot Rebellion: The Movie
Designer: C Manuel Galvez
I just love the “science fiction” nature of this shirt. Loved science fiction as a kid — maybe need to get back into reading it, again. π
