Voting is now over, please see post #19 for update



I know this will be asking a lot, and its not something you can do when you're in a rush or doing better things.... its gotta be something where you're just goofing off and wasting time on the internet. I entered Cameron into a photo contest at Walgreens. The way its set up to vote ROYALLY stinks. I can't send a direct link to his photo, only to the contest.

You need to click the link below then hit refresh 41 times. Yes, 41 times.... that's why I mentioned you need to be bored online ;) BUT you can click 40 times real fast, you don't need to wait for each page to load individually, so its not THAT long. :) (I recommend not flying by with 40 refreshes at a time, I stopped a few times along the way to make sure I didn't overshoot where I was going)

He's photo #4172 out of 13934 at the moment. So you'll need to click refresh 41 times then click the next button thats just next to the photo number til you find Cameron.

clickity click (http://photo.walgreens.com/viewentries/contestname=Halloween%20Cutest%20Costumed%20Kid%20 or%20Critter/neednextset=yes/totalentries=13934/t_=10958983)

Attached is the photo of Cam, so you know what you're looking for

Thanks in advance if you take up the challenge to help us! ((hugs))

Urrrrgh, I can refresh but each photo says it's number 1 out of 13934! Dear Walgreens, your photo site is NO HELP!

Thanks everyone. I tried all day at work to find him but I couldn't. The way this contest is set up stinks!!!!

The title is very original (especially since I saw a hundred others with the same title :o ) its 'lil pumpkin

I think the description is something like:
my grandson was a teething, bubble-making pumpkin last year!


Thank you so much to everyone who even attempted to vote for Cameron. It would be nice to win even one of the sets of free 4x6 prints! I have so many that need to be printed out :D

Now I'm off to see if I can find him at all. Maybe if I figure out which photos are near him that would help someone.

Jeeze Louise... finally found him at photo #6346. Why does he keep jumping around???? Poor little dude, lost in photoland!

A few photos before him is a dog dressed as a lady bug. He's called :Twizzler the ladybug

Then the next photo was a chi with an attitude: "ya better get that camera out of my face" :D

Cam is a few after the 2 dogs.

Good luck finding him.... you'll need it and I'll appreciate it immensely!

Catnapper - is Cam's name in the title? The title name would really help.

Thanks!
Here's the info as copied form the page he's on:
PHOTO TITLE:
'lil Pumpkin

PHOTO DESCRIPTION:
This is my grandson, who was a teething, bubble-making little pumpkin last year.

I voted - he was 4185! :)

Kim I hope you are cross-posting like crazy! Cam will be SO much easier to find when we all nudge him into the top ten! :D

What a cutie!

Whew.... I just found him on my daughter's computer.... #7297. I had a 17 year old standing behind me asking every few minutes "did ya find it yet?" she wanted to get on and IM her friends. Oh well Cam is more important! :D

He's still way behind some of the ones that pop up early in the contest. Its as if people get tired of looking at pics and stop voting after the first few.


Thanks a million to everyone so far!

He's not 7297 any more - I'll keep looking .... as 7297 is a bumblebee and a princess!

I tried, Kim, honest! I just scrolled through from #7,000 to 9,100 and my screen is literally moving before my eyes. I did not find him. Sorry!

I just wanted to send out a huge thank you to everyone who voted.... Cameron won!!!

They're sending some paperwork I have to sign in front of a Notary Public, but Cameron is one of the top place winners! Woohooo.... I'm so excited and happy. The top prize is a $250 gift card to Walgreens. I'll be getting a lot of Christmas shopping done there. Yup, at a pharmacy :p I'll make pictures a main gift for family members this year and then buy accessory items like photo albums and such. They sell all that. And then I'll stock up on hair color, soap, aspirin and cough medicine for the next year :D
