Prize(s)-  7 night trip for two to Bangkok, Thailand with all the bells and whistles

End Date - December 15, 2011

Entry Frequency - 1x per person

Simone's Thoughts - Since my loyal followers all know I have a young son, it will come as no surprise that I will not be entering to win this. Maybe one day we will go, but not anytime soon. If this is your 'bag' though, by all means it looks like a wonderful trip!

Manly looking ride

Sweepstakes Title/Link - Polaris ATV Sweep

Prize(s)- Polaris® MY12 RANGER XP® 800

End Date - December 31, 2011

Entry Frequency - daily per person/email

Simone's Thoughts - This looks like something you would use for dove hunting or could strap a dead animal to the back of. I don't hunt doves, I feed them and point them out to our son in the morning. Sometimes I hit them with the car when they don't fly away fast enough, but I don't need a Polaris to do that.

End Date - November 27, 2011

Entry Frequency - daily per person

Simone's Thoughts - Wow. Its been ten years since 2001, which is the last year I can think I would have seriously entered this contest to win. There would have been about another 6 years I would have entered just for the trip for Spain, but pre-2001 for Ibiza... I feel old. So for all those young and young at heart, this ones for you.

Prize(s)- 2011 Blog Cabin in VA

End Date - September 30, 2011

Entry Frequency - daily per person

Simone's Thoughts - I think last year was when the blog cabin lost the 'cabin' part of its name. I love this years house, but cabin it is not. In fact, its about as non-cabin as you can get. Either way, its a dream win.
