Cold as a....

Sweepstakes Title/Link - H2O PLUS BAHAMAS

Prize(s) - 6 day/ 5 night trip for 2 to Kamalame Cay in the Bahamas.

End Date - February 12, 2009

Entry Frequency - 1X per person (I tried though and its acting like 1x per household.)

Simone's Thoughts - Ok, so its not really that cold down here in Texas. Our winters are mild and summers are hot. That doesn't mean that I don't still want to go and lounge on a tropical beach.

I bless the rains down in Africa....



Sweepstakes Title/Link - Ultimate Safari Sweepstakes

Prize(s) - 7-day/6-night trip for two to Tanzania

End Date - January 30,2009

Entry Frequency - daily per household

Simone's Thoughts - Africa trips don't come up that frequently, so when they do, you want to jump on them. The ARV on this one is $15,000, but that is probably how much a trip of this sort would cost. Figure you would be paying taxes on the trip of a lifetime.

25k A Day!

Sweepstakes Title/Link - Room a Day Giveaway

Prize(s) - Check for $25,000 (16 winners!)

End Date - March 6, 2009

Entry Frequency - daily per person/email

Simone's Thoughts - There are some instant prizes on this one as well. Essentially, the reason you should enter is in the title. I know I could use the extra cash and I think you would be hard pressed to find someone who can't use the money right now. If you are one of those people, butt out and leave the sweeps to those who need it! Hahaha!

Money, money, money, money... mon-nah!

Sweepstakes Title/Link - Wendy's 99 Cent Bid for Value

Prize(s) - 10G, 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe SE

End Date - January 14, 2009

Entry Frequency - as many as you can get in

Simone's Thoughts - Ok, so this isn't really a sweepstakes, more of a free bid auction. You register and then come back to the site on January 13, 2009 @2:00 PM EST for the Bill Payoff ($10,000) and then January 14, 2009 @ 2:00 PM EST for the Hyundai 2008 Santa Fe SE. You answer trivia ? about Wendy's and for each correct answer you get to "place a bid." If your bid is the 99 cent bid, then you win the prize. I know it sounds confusing, but its pretty easy. Really the hardest part of this sweep is having the patience to deal with their server not being able to handle all the traffic. Use Firefox if you have it, IE didn't work so well with this. Good luck!

Crème de la Crème

Sweepstakes Title/Link - HGTV Dream Home

Prize(s) - HGTV dream home in Sonoma, CA & a 2009 GMC Acadia

End Date - February 19, 2009

Entry Frequency - daily per person

Simone's Thoughts - If you enter just one sweepstakes a year - this should be that one. This is the sweepers dream win. Now, don't fall in love with this house, because you can't keep it if you win. Unfortunately, unless you are already rich enough to afford this house, you aren't going to have enough money for the property taxes. But take heart, the amount of money you can sell the house for will allow you to buy a perfectly good home or homes more in your budget!
