Guess this Brooklyn blogger and win big!

We’re celebrating Fashion Week by whacking 25 percent off our tshirt prices—now just $15!—and having a contest. Can you name the Brooklyn blogger  in this picture? This guy is such a tightwad that he actually rode his girly bike (he got it third-hand for $50) from Williamsburg to Ikea to return a $2-item three months after the return policy date, and demand “gimme my two dollars!” like the kid in Better Off Dead. Afterwards, he schmoozed us for free beer and burgers at Hope & Anchor even though his blog is way more popular and he actually has a full-time paying gig. Can you guess who it is? The first commenter to correctly identify him gets a free Brokelyn tshirt, and you’ll get to be our new BFFF!

    his name is erik.

  • Faye

    Thank you for starting the guessing, Anita, but your answer is incomplete! The answer must include his first and last name, as well as his blog.

  • Tim Donnelly

    OMG is it the famous purveyor of New York Shitty? Whose name I don’t know, so he must not be that famous?

  • Faye

    Another excellent guess, Tim, but you’re wrong!

    Erik R. Trinidad of http://www.fancyfastfood.com/ , I believe.

  • rooting for anita

    come on anita, you’re almost there! last name begins with a t (and is the name of a country) and he re-works food that is bad for you.

  • Faye

    I’m rooting for Anita too… but we have a winner! AJ McGuire has correctly named our skinflint. Any thoughts on your victory AJ? How did you do it?

    Oh just remembered the buzz around that guy a few weeks back… Williamsburg + full-time gig rang a bell.

  • Faye

    It’s all too fabulous, AJ! Please send your size and addy to faye@brokelyn.com and you got yourself one fine new fashion must-have. Everyone else… buy one, dammit!
