March 14, 2010 - PRLog -- FAIRFIELD, NJ - Internet coffee retailer, Shoffee.com today announced it's Third Annual Shoffee.com Shoffice Pool (College Basketball Bracket Contest) where customers fill out brackets for the NCAA Men's College Basketball Tournament, and compete to win coffee- related prizes.

"Of course the Shoffice Pool is free to enter," said Joe Simonovich, Co-Founder of Shoffee.com. "And this year is even better than the past two years, this year we were able to go directly to some of our largest manufacturers and work with them to provide some huge prizes."

This year's Shoffee.com Shoffice Pool ( enter now at http://shoffee.com/bball ) is giving entrants three (3) chances to win a year's worth of coffee, with two top prize packages (one provided by Keurig and the other by FLAVIA - a division of MARS).

"We started this two years ago, and figured if we gave away a year's supply of Keurig K- Cups, it would create some buzz," said Simonovich. "This year, the person with the highest score at the end of the NCAA Tournament will choose between a new Keurig B155 home- office brewer and 24 boxes of Green Mountain Keurig K-Cups or a FLAVIA Fusion home brewer and 24 cases of FLAVIA coffee, tea and hot chocolate."

The full prize breakdown for the Third Annual Shoffee.com Shoffice Pool are as follows:

First Place: Choice of a new Keurig B155 home-office brewer and 24 boxes of Green Mountain Keurig K-Cups, or a FLAVIA Fusion home brewer and 24 cases of FLAVIA coffee, tea and hot chocolate (including FLAVIA's exclusive Dove Hot Chocolate.

First Runner-Up: Receives the prize package that is not chosen by the first-place winner which will be either a new Keurig B155 home-office brewer and 24 boxes of Green Mountain Keurig K-Cups, or a FLAVIA Fusion home brewer and 24 cases of FLAVIA coffee, tea and hot chocolate (including FLAVIA's exclusive Dove Hot Chocolate.

Second Runner-Up: A year's supply of Coffee People Donut Shop Keurig K-Cups (24 boxes) courtesy of Diedrich Coffee.

Third Runner-Up: Four (4) boxes of Green Mountain Fair Trade Island Coconut Keurig K- Cups and four (4) boxes of Green Mountain Fair Trade Spring Revival Blend Keurig K-Cups courtesy of Green Mountain Coffee.

Fourth Runner-Up: Four (4) boxes of Timothy's Sugar Bush Maple Keurig K-Cups courtesy of Timothy's World Coffee.

Top 25 Finishers: One (1) Shoffee.com Travel Mug. "We are aware that many of the people who shop at Shoffee.com do not watch college basketball all year long," said Simonovich. "But when it comes to the (NCAA) Tournament, who doesn't at least casually look at a bracket."

This year's Shoffice Pool should have some additional excitement due to the 'social following' that Shoffee.com has been able to build over the past year.

"Since last year's contest, things have really changed in the way we do business," said Simonovich. "Everything we do at Shoffee.com is out in the open. With sites like Facebook and Twitter, it allows us to communicate with our customers on a regular basis instead of only when there is some sort of order issue."

Shoffee.com has built a Facebook following of nearly 3,000 at facebook.com/ShoffeeCoffee, and Simonovich has nearly 1,000 followers of @Shoffee_Joe on Twitter.

"The social stuff is now at the point where it is just becoming fun," said Simonovich. "It's to the point now where if I am not on the Facebook page asking what everyone is drinking by 9AM, one of the people on there will step up and ask the question for me." Simonovich says that he expects fans of Shoffee.com on Facebook, and followers of @Shoffee_Joe on Twitter to embrace the Shoffice Pool Contest with open arms.

"This gives people on our social networking sites a chance to truly interact with each other," said Simonovich. "We try hard not to use these pages to just hammer people over the head with marketing messages, and by looking at any of our social sites, you can clearly see that isn't the case."

The Third Annual Shoffee.com Shoffice Pool is FREE for all to enter, but you only have a few days to get your bracket in at http://Shoffee.com/bball. Entries can start being submitted as soon as the field for the NCAA Men's College Basketball Tournament is announced Sunday, March 14, 2010 at about 6:30PM EST, and entries will stop being taken Thursday, March 18, 2010 at 11:59AM EST.

"In this type of contest, no one has an advantage," said Simonovich. "I have no idea how many times I have filled out a bracket in my life, and I've only won a pool once; and not because it was an entery that I over-analyzed, it was because I fill one out with Syracuse as the winner every year and in 2004, they finally came through for me."
