BOSTON, May 7 /PRNewswire/ -- If you find yourself with a bad case of the bathroom blues, you may want to enter CSN Stores' Green and Clean Bathroom Bailout. CSN plans to flush one lucky winner's dilapidated, energy-wasting bathroom down the drain, transforming it into a brand new, eco-friendly restroom retreat with a $10,000 makeover.

To jumpstart this exciting eco-initiative, CSN Stores has teamed up with Do Your Part, an online media company that produces eco-friendly content "to inspire each one of us to reduce our impact on the planet through everyday green living solutions." Earth Scientist and Do Your Part Syndicated Journalist Terri Bennett joins CSN in launching the contest. Together, CSN and Terri will review thousands of submissions, and offer a grand prize makeover package that includes a Danze toilet, Kaldewei tub, Indocraft vanity, Progress and Kichler Lighting, Shaw Flooring, Gatco accessories and other earth-friendly bathroom finds.
"Do Your Part is excited to partner with CSN Stores to promote water conservation through the Bathroom Bailout Contest. The bathroom is where we typically use the most water everyday and it's the place where everyday green living solutions can have a real impact," said Do Your Part's Terri Bennett. "You don't have to start from scratch to make your lifestyle elegant and eco-friendly at the same time. There are many small changes you can make in your bathroom to immediately start saving money and resources."
To enter the contest, and to see Terri's Top 10 Eco-Picks, participants should log onto www.csnstores.com/bailout. Then they briefly need to describe their outdated, boring, or truly deteriorating bathroom, and tell us why an eco-friendly bailout would help banish their bathroom blues for good. Entries can be submitted from now through July 30th, 2010.
After the contest's first stage, the Bathroom Bailout panel of judges will choose 50+ state finalists, asking them to submit a picture of their bathroom. The finalists' submissions will then be posted on Facebook.com/CSNStores, where fans will be able to vote for their favorites. The submission with the most fan votes will automatically be placed into a Top 3 slot. The grand, second, and third-prize winners will be announced in late September.
The second place prize is a bamboo bath mat and a $250 CSN gift certificate (retail value: $300). The third place prize is an Ecotots Step Stool and a $50 CSN gift certificate (retail value: $130). Also, be sure to check out some of CSN's other contests, including CSN Tools' Turbocharge Your Garage Challenge at www.csntools.com/turbocharge.
