Clean Up Your Life and Get Pumped with a Push of the Thumb

May 2006 – Generation Text is rapidly catching on to the national sensation among mobile phone users by participating in Limbo Auctions. Beyond changing the way everyone from teens to Baby Boomers communicates; text messaging has found a new use. Limbo 41414 is not only a game; it is a lifestyle activity that turns a consumer’s phone into an “always on” auction.

Inez Turner of Chicago, retired military personnel and caregiver, will no longer be bogged down by household chores because she just won a year’s worth of maid service worth $2,500 on Mother’s Day. Her daily attention to the auction finally paid off with the winning bid of $22.23.

Now Limbo 41414 is offering a year’s worth of gas worth $1,512 to a lucky Limbo Auction winner.

Limbo 41414 recently sold a $35,000 Hummer H3 to a Utah woman whose winning Limbo bid got her the vehicle for $36.65 (less than the cost of filling it up). Right now, Limbo players can also bid to win a Mini Cooper Cabrio. The auction for the gas closes on Memorial Day, May 29 at noon Pacific Time.

Limbo 41414 uniquely blends elements of a sweepstakes with the competitiveness of an auction and the action of gaming, on mobile phones via text messaging. The intriguing difference with a Limbo Auction is that the winner is the person making the lowest bid that no other player makes, not the highest. Limbo 41414 bids can be placed via text message or toll free phone number.

“Limbo Auctions, like text messaging itself, have become a lifestyle for our players. They use their time on Limbo to strategize their bidding to knock other players off the lowest unique number,” said Limbo CEO Jonathon Linner. “We continually offer items for auction that are both luxurious and provide for an easier lifestyle.”

Limbo 41414 has run over 100 auctions since launching in December 2005; giving out over $100,000 in prizes around the United States with winning bids totaling less than $400. With all major cell phone carriers participating, mobile users simply text ‘PLAY’ to 41414 and choose which auction to bid on or visit www.41414.com to learn more. You can also call in from your home phone line at (877) 771-9257.
