This contest is as simple as pie!

  • Visit BillShrink.com and take a look at their lovely spokesmodel (wearing green) featured on their homepage.
  • Think of a cool nickname for her and write your answer in the comments below before 11:59 pm, August 14th, 2009. 
  • Make sure you leave your name and email address when filling out the comments so we can contact you if you win.

That's it!  We'll randomly select an entry and announce the winner on August 15th.

Limited only to US residents and those of legal age.

What is BillShrink?

Cap from Stop Buying Crap has a detailed description of BillShrink's service:

Frequently getting overage charges from your cell phone plan? Billshrink.com may be able to help you sort through hundreds of different cell phone plan and help you find the best plan to save you money.

Billshrink is pretty easy and straightforward to use. Choose the service that you want to compare (wireless or credit cards), input your calling or spending pattern and Billshrink will spit out a list of possible alternatives.

Personally, I'm going to call her Vera.

Editor's Note: The contest is closed.  The winner is Eileen's suggestion Myranda Money.  Congratulations Eileen!

She kind of has a pixie look about her - I'd call her "Shrinkerbell". But for a real name, I'd call her "Ava" or "Fritzi"

Julia Roberts' thrifty twin.

Guest's picture

How about Celine the billshrink queen.

Guest's picture

well as a billshrinker I think her name should be Minnie

Guest's picture

how about "miss moulah", or "Eva the savah" (said with a boston accent) haha

Guest's picture

Jill, the BillShrinker

Guest's picture

She looks golden to me, so I suggest Orolita.

Guest's picture

Randomly selected? Then I guess it is OK if I give a duplicate answer: Jill, she'll shrink your bill!

Guest's picture

To me, she looks like a Becky. Becky Billshrinker.

Call her Prudence (as in Frugal).

Trixie, but I have no idea why. That's the first name that came to mind when I saw her picture.

I agree that she looks a lot like Julia Roberts. Maybe she's a Julie instead of a Trixie. :)

Lucky Leslie

Guest's picture

Billshrinkin' Brenda

Because Brenda appeals to the general public.

Guest's picture

This is Mandy. Mandy is smiling because she just saved hundreds of dollars on her cell phone bill by using Billshrink.

Guest's picture

Green elf.

First thing that popped in my head.

Guest's picture

The names Laurel and and Eve both seem to fit her. Have a wonderful day!

Her nickname is:

Savesum Anee (Save some money)

Guest's picture

Tink!

"Just think...BillShrink, Tink."

Guest's picture

First name that came to mind was Eva.

Guest's picture

How about Verde (green in Spanish & Italian)

Llib, because it's bill backwards, or in reverse, and that's exactly what we want to do, reverse our bills : )

Carry it further and see Llib as a more liberal thinker, liberated from the ties that bind, contracts, fixed fees and user fees...you get the idea.

Green Irene, the savings queen

Guest's picture

I think the best name would be Penny... very fitting.

Kind of reminds me of the girl in 'inspector gadget' cartoons growing up. LOL.

billinda, billina, isabill or betsy bill

Personally I think giving her a real name like "flo" from the progressive car insurance commercials would be best.

In that case she looks like a sarah or melanie.

Guest's picture

Penni

Guest's picture

Bonita Billshrinker, because she's beautiful.

Guest's picture

Miss. Byl-shrinki boPeep

Guest's picture

Ernestine, of course

Alice Watson

Woot!

Green Creator

Guest's picture

Zoey Optima!

Guest's picture

She looks like a pixie. But that has nothing to do with bill shrinkage. Maybe Tinkerbell, the magic money saving fairy :)

Guest's picture

Since Miss Moneypenny has already been taken, I go for the still money-related and adorable: Penny!

Guest's picture

Libby the Savvy

Guest's picture

I think it would be apt for someone who is suposed to shrink bills.

She looks like a Zoey :]

Guest's picture

Penny!

Guest's picture

I'll throw one out there and go...Joan of Savings

Guest's picture

Myranda Money (although I too, think she looks like a Poppie, I guess alternately she could be Poppie Pennysaver)

Guest's picture

I think she looks like a Jayla

Guest's picture

I like Sally. Even though technically, it's NOT a nickname. It's sweet and friendly and approachable. Plus it's a throw back name which makes people trust them more.

Straight-up nicknames? I'd say The Green Lady.

Fatima Wad-Sure

Ms. Livin Pennywise

Guest's picture

I have to go with Penny, it's perfect.

Guest's picture

I think Dolla is a good name for her.

Guest's picture

Bitsie!

Guest's picture

"Michelle no bills" sung to the tune by the beatles "Michelle my belle"... :)

Guest's picture

For some reason, she looks like a Maureen. So, Money-saving Maureen? Maureen Moneywise?
