Sweepstakes Title/Link - FLN HOLIDAY GIFT-A-RAMA SWEEPSTAKES
Prize(s) - Varies daily
End Date - December 29, 2008
Entry Frequency - daily per person/ email
Simone's Thoughts - I love sweepstakes that have different prizes everyday - it really tosses up the monotony of sweeping. These prizes are pretty good, although they aren't 1k prizes or anything.
Thoughts on the ever changing nature of our planet, the effects we are having on it, and examinations of all things science.

Dream Trip to Alaska
Sweepstakes Title/Link - The Prescribe the Nation Sweepstakes
Prize(s) - 8 day/ 7 night trip for 4 to Alaska.
End Date - February 26, 2009
Entry Frequency - unlimited
Simone's Thoughts - Garrett & I have always wanted to win a trip to Alaska and maybe this is the one. This one does break the bank with the ARV - 25K - but it sounds like it is worth it for all that is included. They are also giving away 5 double spa gift certificates a week.

A lesson in ARV that may be worth it to take.
Sweepstakes Title/Link - NAUTICA ESCAPE SWEEPSTAKES
Prize(s) - 7 night/8 day trip for 6 to the Dulce Suenos Villa in Manzanillo, Mexico
End Date - January 31, 2009
Entry Frequency - daily per person/email
Simone's Thoughts - OK, the ARV, or approximate retail value, on this win is $19,800. The way sweepstakes work in the US is anything you win over $600 you have to pay taxes on (this is the easy version of the tax law - I know its more complex, but that is the gist of it.) So, if you win this trip you will pay taxes on almost 20k. How much you pay will depend on your tax bracket, but the thing to remember is you aren't getting a vacation for free on this one. That being said, this would be the most awesome trip to Mexico ever and thats why I posted it for you. Not to mention, those 5 friends and or relatives will love you forever for taking them. Check out the villa - have fun drooling!

For my friends up north....
Sweepstakes Title/Link - SKI-DOO® 50TH ANNIVERSARY SWEEPSTAKES
Prize(s) - Snowmobiles or a trip to Quebec
End Date - December 14, 2008
Entry Frequency - 1x per person/email
Simone's Thoughts - I am really glad I don't have to drive in snow anymore. Yes you learn how to drive in it, but its still dangerous no matter how much you learn. You could definitely argue that I face more danger living in a metro area in the south than driving in snow 6 months a year, but its still more pleasant. So for my friends up north dealing with the ice storm - this sweeps for you!

Simone's Thoughts - I have always wanted to go to Fiji and I think winning a trip is about the only way I will ever get there. It is really expensive to fly there, much less afford the hotels. This trip is a great length and is for 4 people.

Prize(s) - 2008 smart fortwo vehicle or $18,000.
End Date - December 12, 2008
Entry Frequency - 1x person/ phone number
Simone's Thoughts - I think if I lived somewhere other than TX, I might drive a smart car. I just can't picture myself in one next to all the H2s on the road. Not that I want to be in the hummer, I just don't feel safe sharing the same road with them in this car. Luckily, there is a cash option and I can always use cash! They are giving away 18 grand prizes and countless smaller prizes.
