TIMEX & YOU
This is brilliant. I’ve been seeing a lot more companies going the route of you having a say in the colors/styles you want in their products. Puma & Keds have been on it for a while and now seeing TIMEX getting in on it stokes me out. Make your own HERE
This is the one I made:

ecosystem
If you’re like me, sometimes your phone “memo pad” just isn’t enough. Last year I started carrying around different notebooks and such so that I always had something to write my notes on. A company called ecosystem was brought to my attention, and what they’re doing is really cool.
Here are the highlights of their products:
-All products are made right here in the USA.
-Each of their products are made from 100% post-consumer recycled material.
-You can customize the color, size, and what type of paper fills your notebook.
-They have add-on pocket inserts in case you need more pages to write on.
-Each notebook has a unique number that, once registered, tells you the origin of the materials in your book and if lost, can be listed to try and find it.
How cool is all of that? And to help kick off this product, we are giving 7 of our followers one of these books (it’s a surprise which one you can win). That’s right, ANOTHER GIVEAWAY! And this time there will be a total of 7 winners!
Here’s how to enter:
You must have a Facebook account and “Like” the ecosystem page (click here). Then find where Le Grand Cru posted on their wall and leave a comment under it. Contest is now over.
Contest will end June 13, 2010 @ 11:59 PST. Winner will be notified June 14 by email. Thanks again to our good friends at ecosystem! Good luck to you all!
(We got some questions as to whether this contest is open internationally. Our answer is “yes”, but international winners will have to pay for shipping)

BAGGU Giveaway
BAGGU has a very simple principle: that good design should be functional, beautiful, and affordable. Their main item is based upon the iconic plastic shopping bag. But because it’s reusable, it helps with keeping the environment clean. I feel that they are really affordable and that everyone should buy one. Plus, it doesn’t have a company logo, so you won’t make an awkward scene walking into one grocery store with a different grocery’s logo.
My sister did a giveaway on her blog (iartu), and that’s how I heard about this company. BAGGU also offer other things, so because each and everyone should already be deciding on which color BAGGU bag you’re about to purchase, our giveaway consists of their Backpack!
Here are the stats:
16″ high / 10″ wide / 5.5″ deep
Magnetic snap + buckle closure
Interior pocket
Adjustable shoulder straps
16oz recycled cotton canvas
Guess what? The good people at BAGGU are letting us give TWO backpacks away!
One RED, and one OLIVE.
All you need to do is visit their site by clicking here, and come back to this post leaving a comment on which one of the 36 BAGGU bag colors you would purchase to go along with the Backpack. Contest is now over.
The contest will end May 31, 2010 @ 11:59PM PST. Rules may change accordingly without any prior notice.
Smart Money Clip Giveaway
I’ve always been a fan of money clips, but I never really knew what to do if I needed to carry around a few cards too. Well, I found these Smart Money Clips by Storus that allow you to carry up to 30 bills (I wish I had that many at once) on one side and one to five cards on the other. I’ve started to use it and I like the fact that even if I only take my license as my only “card”, it doesn’t fall out!
Want to try it out? Well, thanks to the good people at Storus, we have 2 to give away! All you have to do is visit Storus by clicking here, look at the “colors” they have to offer, and come back to this post leaving us a comment on which 2 colors you think we have to give. Out of those people that guess correctly, we will draw 2 names. You only have to have one color right to qualify! Contest is now over.
Contest will end May 5, 2010 @ 11:59pm PST. Good luck to you all!

Postcarden
Postcarden? Half postcard, half garden. Awesome. When I first came across these, I found out they are a company based in London and that buying one would be difficult because of seeds having to go through customs. Just recently they were added to a store called Brooklyn5and10 and they sell for $12.95. They have 3 designs: Botanical Garden, Green City, and Backyard Garden.
I’ve been in contact with Brooklyn5and10, so stay tuned for a chance to win one!
