Fall Women’s Expo jewelry winners

Congratulations to the three lucky women who won Gold Crown Jewelers’ jewelry giveaway at our Fall Women’s Expo.

Amanda Nastally, above, was our first prize winner. She opted for Gold Crown Jewelers’ heart pendant necklace.

The 2009 fall expo was Amanda’s first. She was surprised at the variety of vendors and seeing all that was there.

“I liked it,” she said. “I’ll definitely come back.”

Andrea Wint was our second prize winner. Andrea picked the sterling silver ring with marcasite and amethyst.

She’s been to two women’s expos – March’s spring expo was her first.

“Now I’m hooked,” Andrea said. “It’s awesome.”

Justina Kukulka was our third prize winner. Justine earned the 14K gold two-tone earings.

Like Amanda, this fall’s event was Justina’s first women’s expo, and she enjoyed the hands-on activities.

Congratulations to all the women. For more photos from this fall’s event, head to our Flickr photo gallery. Look for more opportunities to win prizes at our Spring Women’s Expo, coming Saturday, March 13, 2010.

Spring Women’s Expo 2009 winners

We’re proud to announce the three winner’s of the Gold Crown Jewelers prize drawing from our Spring Women’s Expo, as well as our two other prize winners.

First prize, a topaz pendant on a 14k gold rope chain, goes to Theresa Gollakner from Jackson (above). Theresa has been to many American 1 Women’s Expos, and was amazed to hear our phone call telling her she was the winner.

“I was glad I was sitting down,” she said.

The best part? We gave her Gold Crown’s prize on her birthday.



Next up are Cindy Jane Vass, our third prize winner (left), and Judy Goodall (right), our second prize winner.

Cindy won a pair of amethyst earrings. This expo was Cindy’s first. Her mom, who recently moved back to Michigan from Florida, told Cindy about our expo – and they came together.

Judy won a 10k gold fashion ring. Judy likes to take her sister to our Spring Women’s Expo because it falls right around her sister’s birthday.



Ashley Erwin from Concord (above) won our $200 shopping spree. Ashley won just by entering her name into our drawing.



Nancy Fowler (above) won our $100 gas card drawing by riding the shuttle bus to the expo.

Nancy came to the expo to shop, and spent four hours browsing through the vendors.

Congratulations to all our prize winners. Check out more photos on our Flickr page.

Prize winners from the Fall Women’s Expo

We had quite a few big winners from our most recent Fall Women’s Expo, so we’re going to mention them all in this blog post.




First up in Kathleen K. (above), our $100 gas card winner. Kathleen was eligible to win because she rode our new shuttle bus system. Kathleen parked at Knight’s Steakhouse on Horton and Ferguson Rd. and rode the shuttle to the expo. “I would do it again, definitely,” she said.




Carmen W. was our $150 Shopping Spree winner. Carmen earned $150 worth of AmEx gift cards she can use to go shopping. Carmen has been attending American 1’s womens expos for years now. “We used to go when it was over at the fairgrounds,” she told me.




Next up are two of our Gold Crown Jewelers jewelry winners, Millie M. (left) and Elaine S. (right), with Paolo from GCJ.




Millie won the above ring from Gold Crown Jewelers. She said she couldn’t believe she won when we called.

“Out of 1,500 people there, who thinks they’re going to win?” she said.




Elaine (above) drove in from Grass Lake to attend her first Women’s Expo. She’ll definitely come to the spring event, she said.

“I really enjoyed my 10 minute massage,” Elaine said. She won the above gold necklace.




Martha M. (above) of Hudson was the ruby necklace winner. This was Martha’s first expo, too, and she loved how friendly all the vendors were.

“They had lots of things to offer,” she said.

Lots of congratulations to our winners, and many thanks to Gold Crown Jewelers for providing three fantastic prizes. Look for more great prizes from Paolo and the gang at our Spring Women’s Expo, coming to you Saturday, March 14.
