Discount clothier Daffy’s has generated considerable buzz in the past several weeks with the Daffy’s apartment contest, which promises the winner a year’s lease on a 1,380-square-foot, two-bedroom West Village apartment at 1 Seventh Avenue South on the corner of Clarkson Street for just $700 (some have estimated that the unit’s real rental value is $7,000 per month). Over three weeks in July and August, Daffy’s collected 2,867 video entries and is now calling upon the public to vote for a winner amongst the five finalists. The clip above, which will air tonight at Daffy’s Fashion’s Night Out party from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m., is a compilation of the many contestant submissions. An additional prize, the Daffy’s Closet, featuring $1,000 worth of clothes, will be on the block at Daffy’s Soho and Upper East Side locations. TRD
