Join us at the Powershop Pioneers to be in to win $1,000 of electricity

If you follow Geekzone during this month (May 2009) you will probably notice an advert showing an updated Daniel Boone image with a familiar face... If not, check the picture on the side and you know what I mean.

Yes, I know what you will say: Daniel Boone never looked like that, an invention of TV. But it's all fun and games folks - I am joined by Kiwiblog's David Farrar, Public Address's Russell Brown and Scoop's Alastair Thompson as one of the "Powershop Pioneers", part of a promotional campaign.

I think I qualify as a Powershop Pioneer, since I've switched my electricity to Powershop even before they went public, as part of their beta test.

Anyway, the biggest part of this promotion is that consumers joining the Powershop Pioneers are in to win NZ$ 1,000 of electricity at the end of May 2009. We already had two prize draws, so now is your chance to join the revolution and become a pioneer yourself.

I actually used to have a couple of pink shirts...

Surely that is "Salmon" and not pink?

i think i did myself out of $50 by joining this way... they only just logged me in to the site now and i expect i probably missed the prize draw- got no notification or anything about it.  I knew i should have followed the othe link to sign up with $50 of free power!  for some reason i thought that offer was for all signups in may and that it would still apply if i followed this pioneer link :( ...
