Happy Monday 5: The Mingo Lamberti T-shirt Winners!

Another Onelargeprawn giveaway has come to an end and we’re hoping to make the start to the week a little happier for three lucky people. To stand a chance of winning a super-cool Mingo Lamberti t-shirt, we asked you to name a design from any of the Mingo Lamberti ranges. A quick visit to Mingo Lamberti’s Flickr page reveals the answers and we accepted the name of any t-shirt design from the six ranges listed there.

Once again we had a good response to the competition so thanks to everyone for submitting their entries. The Randomizer has done its thing and spat out the winners. Could you be one of them? Find out after the jump.

Win a Call of Juarez: Bound In Blood Hamper

I was having a chat the other day with fellow gamer Delon from Curious Onion. He is fine in case you wanted to know. He also happens to be giving away a rocking Call of Juarez: Bound In Blood hamper that includes a branded t-shirt and bandana, a promotional copy of the game for the Xbox 360, and a set of 6 tequila shot glasses. There is no tequila in sight though – Delon could have drunk it, he is sneaky that way ;-)

In any case if you’d like to win the hamper, head on over to Curious Onion competition post and answer the simple question. The giveaway will end on July 25th.

BONUS: It turns out Delon was on the locally-produced show The Verge to demonstrate Call of Juarez: Bound In Blood. He makes a slight hash of it. See the video after the jump.

Win T-Shirts from Mingo Lamberti!

Note: This competition has ended.

It’s been a week since our last giveaway and I’ve already got the DTs. Lucky for me and you, Mingo Lamberti has offered some of their super-cool merch for us to give away.

Named after his grandfather, a good man who believed in doing a good job at whatever he did, Brad Hodgskiss created t-shirt collective Mingo Lamberti to bring those same principles into the t-shirts and their designs. There have been six ranges thus far – each design gets printed 200 times and made available at independent clothing stores around Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Durban.

We’ve got not one, not two, but THREE Mingo Lamberti tees to give away this week, and if you’re picked as a winner you’ll be able to choose your tee from two specific ranges.

The gentleman can select any design from the Electric range.

And the ladies can take a pick from these three designs in the Nature range.

Full competition details are after the jump. Go to it!

And we’re Back!

Overnight, the Onelargeprawn blog seems to have suffered a cardiac arrest of sorts, and I was greeted with the dreaded Bandwidth Limit Exceeded error as I tried to log on today. Needless to say, we’re back from the dead thanks to the resuscitate hands of our hosting company Texo – cheers lads  ;-) Transmission will resume shortly.

In case you somehow missed it, the Interweb is awash with news of Michael Jackson’s death. Doctors were unable to revive the king of pop when he experienced a cardiac arrest earlier this morning. His unexpected death has not only devastated fans, but also started speculations as to what killed him. The jokes have begun as well, and it seems Horatio from CSI Miami is on the case.

Is it a little too early for the jokes? Probably, but this is the unstoppable force of the Internet.

Win an Awesome R2000 Hamper from Mooks!

Note: This competition has ended.

We’re into the final week of June, and it brings not only my birthday but also our last giveaway for this month. And we thought we’d surprise you by not giving away any t-shirts at all. Instead, we got an awesome hamper from our buddies at Mooks!

Created in Melbourne, Australia fashion label Mooks started off in 1991 with a line of t-shirts designs that mixed a tongue-in-cheek twist of pop art, Japanese comics, American College sports, and graphic design. 18 years later and still keeping with the ethos “people creating for like minded people“, Mooks can be found around the world, making streetwear that is new, fresh, and original.

And we’ve got a super-cool hamper to give away to one lucky reader. It includes:

  • A pair of matte black “Charlie” sunglasses
  • An Assembly Overnighter bag
  • A Kaiser beanie

The hamper is valued at R2000 and is by far the biggest prize we’ve had on Onelargeprawn! All the info you need to enter the competition details can be found after the jump. Go to it!
