October is Owl Month – Fun! Contests! Profit! - Beyond Tiki

So in order to discover the TRUE ‘Owl-Per-Tiki’ ratio, I would like to propose the following antics in October: THE GREAT OWL HUNT. During the ENTIRE month of October, starting on the first, take a camera with you whenever you thrift or go to the flea market. Whenever you see an owl for sale, take a photo, and post it here. (If we are in danger of crashing the server, we’ll end it short of a month, but for now, it’s a month). It goes without saying that if you see a tiki, just buy it. Keep track of how many of each – so after the month is up, we can calculate the true Worldwide O.P.T. ratio. As a bonus, the person with the MOST owls will have the distinction of being crowned the ‘BIG HOOT’. THE GREAT OWL CHALLENGE Part 2, if you choose to accept it, is to purchase one of the Owls you see and attempt to sell it on Ebay. The person who makes the MOST money with his or her thrifted owl, will win the distinction of being a very, very clever bastard. Ready.... Set... HOO!
