I hope you’ve got your calendar cleared for tonight — Chat Bash 2010, the annual chat that I co-host along with Ginger of AttentionDealShoppers.com, will be going live at 6pm Central on our special dedicated chat site, RewardsChat.com, and we’ve got a very impressive list of honored guest chatters this year:
6:00: Craig Cassata, founder/CEO of MrRebates
6:30: Allison Jones, Social Media Manager of Ebates
7:00: Jeff Nobbs, Co-Founder of Extrabux (or Lauren Miller, Director of PR, or Schuyler Twyman)
7:30: TBA
8:00: Tricia Hennessey, Online Merchandising Coordinator of Memolink
Also attending, time slots TBA: Keith Pequeno, VP of Partner Development at Upromise and Bo Mcguffee, Senior Moderator at FatWallet
While Swagbucks isn’t able to join us, they’ve issued a special SwagCode to be given out during chat, plus a special code for new signups! And QuickRewards.net isn’t able to attend but is sending prizes!
But wait…there’s more!
Every year, Ginger and I are asked, “Can you give some really basic information for newbies?” This year, we WILL be giving some basic tips on couponing (Ginger’s realm of expertise) and online deal-finding (which both of us do pretty well with). So whether you’re a novice to coupon-clipping, online coupon codes, and rewards programs, or an experienced veteran, you will learn something new, have some fun, and maybe win a prize!
“A prize? What’s that about prizes?”
Chat Bash started some years ago as a celebration of the birthday of my website, and later my pal Ginger’s as well, so of course you can’t have a birthday party without prizes! Not only do Ginger and I provide our chatters with a chance to win some great prizes, but our featured guests often do, too! For instance, this year the nice folks at Ebates are going to be giving away a new iPod Shuffle in chat! We’ll have GCs from Target, Amazon, Subway, Restaurant.com, Fandango, and Starbucks, we’ll have free tees, cookbooks, holiday planners, cold, hard cash, and much, much more!
Chat Bash 2010 will offer a high-powered line-up of chat guests from the rewards programs that you know and love, or maybe the ones you’ve heard of but wanted to learn more about. You’re not going to find this many rewards program reps all in one place, live and ready to answer your questions, anywhere else on the planet — so be sure you mark your calendar and plan to attend tonight! Go ahead over to RewardsChat.com if you’d like to register a name for use in chat; you can do that anytime or just be an anonymous chatter, that’s okay, too. 
Would you like more information? Are you with a rewards program and you’d like to join us? Please shoot me an email and I’ll get right back with you!
I’m looking forward to tonight and hope to chat with you then!
