Attention all you creative, artistically minded fans of independent locally-oriented grocery stores–here’s a chance to combine those two passions and maybe even get yourself some free food in the process! For the next three weeks, Ellwood Thompson’s is holding a contest to design their next bumper sticker.

We’re in the market for a creative, funny, and original new bumper sticker for our store – and we’d love to have your help! Get your thinking caps on and shoot us some ideas. Keep it simple and keep it clean, we’re looking for ideas that make us and everyone around us smile. We’ll announce one winner on March 16th and then have those stickers made and available to the public!

The winner will receive a $50.00 gift card to Ellwood Thompson’s, and get to see their design grace the bumpers of local Richmond vehicles for the next year (and possibly a lot longer than that). Plus you will receive all the fame and adulation that comes with a significant contribution to the RVA community. How can you resist? To enter, just submit your idea to sticker@ellwoodthompsons.com. Make sure you include your full name, email, phone number, zip code, and of course, your idea. For more details, click here, and don’t forget to have fun!
