Do you love Peet's coffee? If you answered yes to this question and you can articulate why it is you feel so fondly towards Peet's coffee, then you are well on your way to potentially winning a year's supply of Peet's. They are currently running a contest in which they are asking people to submit stories based on the theme, "Why I Love Peet's Coffee." It can be about an interesting experience you had while in the store or about someone you met while getting a cup of coffee.
The only irritating thing about this contest is that they want you to surrender email addresses from five friends along with your story, which makes the promotion feel a little less cool. However, if you're willing to sell out five friends for a chance to win a year's worth of coffee (I must add that Peet's coffee is quite excellent), then you can find all the official rules and entry info here.

I love me some Peets...
The request for the email addresses of 5 friends seems optional, and better yet they all win free beans if you pull it out.

I hadn't even tried their coffee. They had a giveaway and sent me a free pound of coffee. They roasting process is excellent. I have placed several orders since, simply because of the quality of their product. I love Peet's!

I've tried Peet's Decaf and was not impressed. It was actually a very disapointing cup of coffee. On the same trip I bought a bag of Safeway Select Decaf (which was pretty good) and a bag of Community Coffee Decaf (Which was excellent) I also love the Organic Coffee Company's Gorilla Decaf.
Just my thoughts on a cup of coffee.

Peet's is better than many big brands. Still, it can run ashy and dirty, given their preferred roasting style. I once bought a bag of the revered Panama Esmeralda Geisha from them, and they literally burnt all the subtle floral and fruity flavors out of it. Like a well-done steak...

I heart Peet's, but I'm not ratting out my friends' emails. That's obnoxious.
