Electrician and Distributor Win 3M Trip to the Races

Joseph Tippett, Jr., an electrician and owner of Tippett & Sons Electrical Services in Mechanicsville, Md., has won the most recent 3M Electrical Markets Division promotion for 3M spring connectors. He bought connectors from a Rexel distributor in Lexington Park, Md. As a result, Jeff Beall of the Rexell distributorship also is a winner. Tippett and Beall and their guests will attend the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup and Busch Series Races Nov. 10-11 at Phoenix International Speedway.

In order to be a 3M NASCAR Victory Lane Sweepstakes winner, Tippett bought a jug of 3M Performance Plus Wire Connectors T/Y+ and then, using a code he found inside, went online and entered the sweepstakes. When Tippett won, the distributorship where he bought the connectors became a winner, too. Their prize includes a trip to Phoenix and attendance at the races.

There were 931 instant winners among those who went to the promotion Web site. They won either a gift card for new tires, an oil change or gas; or a NASCAR duffel bag or T-shirt.
