With social media and the news so readily available to us today, we are flooded with celebrity gossip, political discussions, and breaking news every second of the day. We want to know your thoughts on these Trending Topics and what you really think about these issues that make their way on to your newsfeed daily.
Let’s start this Trending Topics discussion with The Presidential Debate.
Last nights debate has brought on tweets and articles ranging from Trump having the sniffles to Hilary’s lack of an emotional connection. Every article you read has a different spin on the debate.
Polling roughly 1,000 members yesterday, only half stated they actually were going to watch the debate.

Name A Gifties Contest Result!
Hello members,
On October 2nd we asked you to suggest Gifties that you would like to see in the store. The first round of the competition required members to suggest a Giftie item in our contest topic. In the second round, Toluna picked the top 5 suggestions, and asked our community to choose what they would like to see in the Gifties store. The poll closed this afternoon and we have a winner…
Starting next week, you will see the Yankee Candle Gift Card as a Gifties Option!
We had an amazing response, almost 1300 votes! Congrats to fefehubby and jgmyers for being the first to suggest this Giftie, and winning 15,000 points.
Thank you to our members who suggested this Giftie, and to all of our members for participating in our latest competition. You will be able to purchase the Yankee Candle Gift Card starting next week! Be sure to stay tuned for news of our next competition, coming soon!
See you soon,
The Toluna Team
