Fun versus Finances
Sweepstakes Title/Link - Dockers Sports Trip or Cash Sweep
Prize(s)- 12 trips for two (over a course of a 12 month period) to attend 12 major sporting events, beginning October 2010 OR a cash alternative prize of $15,000
End Date - June 30, 2010
Entry Frequency - daily per household
Simone's Thoughts - While this truely would be the trip(s) of a lifetime for my hubby, paying off some debt would be much more prudent. Plus I'm sure we couldn't get this much time off from our jobs. Ahh the American dream realized. Not to mention paying taxes on $45,000 worth of trips would really hurt come April.

Prize(s)- 3 night trip for 2 to the Plaza Hotel in NYC
End Date - June 14, 2010
Entry Frequency - 5x per household (1 for registering and extra for optin in)
Simone's Thoughts - We get to NYC as often as we can, although living in TX, its not as often as I would like. To be fair when we lived in VT we only went 1x a year then. That being said, I jump on trips to NYC so we can visit my uncle. This one is a nice one, although I would prefer a longer stay and a trip for 4, but hey you take what you can get!

You have to submit a photo of your family grilling or around the grill. The drawing is random though, so doesn't have to be a masterpiece.

Simone's Thoughts - Diamonds are overpriced, trips to Hawaii aren't. My advice if you are so lucky as to win this one, would be to take the trip. On the lesser prizes, I would prob pick the diamonds.

Simone's Thoughts - Honestly, I'm not a fan of 3D tv. I really don't think the technology is that much better than it was in the 70s when they stuck stuff out toward the screen. Plus it gives me a headache. But on the other hand, there's a golden band... and he loves it.

Entry Frequency - daily per person
Simone's Thoughts - I'm the sort of geek who gets pissed when she visits Niagara Falls because there isn't more information about the amount of electricity it generates or the engineering behind it. It stands to reason than that I would love a glimpse at the Panama Canal. This would be a very unique and fun cruise.

Simone's Thoughts - Swimsuit season is upon us and in my opinion, Land's End does the best job of creating swimsuits that hold everything in AND last from season to season. You could buy an awful lot of them w/ this win.
As a side note, as you may have noticed, I have stopped posting pics. Lack of time is to blame. Hopefully no-one really cares enough to notice.

Simone's Thoughts - Can't really think of a better vacation than one to anywhere that you want. The only thing that they could have done to improve this would have been to up the ARV as you really can't go to Antartica on this amount of money. So really its anywhere in the world you can go to for under 10 grand for 2 people. Add in the fact that they are giving away a Flip a day and you have a really good sweep on your hands.
