Win A Chance To Survive An Episode of Survivorman

Les Stroud Survivorman

A while back I used to love watching the show Survivorman on Discovery Channel. The show features survival expert Les Stroud.

In the show, Stroud gets dropped or stranded in the middle of various environments with not much more than the clothes on his back. The rules, according to the show’s website are ” no food, no shelter, no water, no tools and no camera crew“.

From what I recall, he would bring along a couple of items (I think he always had a small flint stick to make fire) and also use whatever he could find to survive for a pre-determined amount of time before meeting up with his team to be taken back to safety. In the event that the survival was too tough, I think he could call in help if need be. Continue reading Win A Chance To Survive An Episode of Survivorman

ANA is celebrating their new Houston to Tokyo- Narita route which takes off on June 12, 2015 with a little contest.

The airline is looking for help to create a caption which will be printed on a special ANA umbrella. The umbrella commemorates the inaugural flight and will be given  to passengers onboard as a special gift!

While I’d be happy to get a commemorative ANA umbrella, I’d love to win the prize in their Caption Writing Contest even more. Continue reading Win A Flight To Japan in the ANA Caption Contest

Win A Trip For 2 To Barbados

Barbados was the first trip we went on after Lucas was born. At the time he was a week shy of 3 months old. We had a great time, enjoying sites all over the island. This trip was the start of over three years (and counting) of amazing travel with our little third wheel!

For those of you that would like to go back or haven’t yet visited, CBS Radio is giving away a trip for 2 in the Barbados Escape sweepstakes!

I entered the contest and so should you! Continue reading Win A Trip For 2 To Barbados

Hyatt wants to “introduce the world to its new all-inclusive resorts” and gave lots of people a chance to go there, making a Youtube video in the process.

They set up a photo booth giving a few lucky winners a chance to go all in and experience the all-inclusive experience at Zilara.

Now Hyatt would like to send three more lucky winners to have an “unforgettable experience” at Zilara or Ziva by sharing the video. Continue reading WIN A TRIP: Hyatt All Inclusive + 100,000 AAdvantage Miles

Win A Trip: Academy of Country Music Awards

Southwest is giving one lucky winner a trip for 2 to the Dr Pepper Academy of Country Music Awards 2015 which takes place in Arlington, Texas!

While I wouldn’t claim to be a country music fan, I can definitely appreciate the genre of music when in the appropriate setting. For example, I enjoyed listening to country music while visiting honky-tonk bars in Nashville, at BBQ restaurants in various locations and other places along those lines. Continue reading Win A Trip: Academy of Country Music Awards

WIN: 7 FREE NIGHTS at La Quinta

Southwest is giving away a prize which is a bit different from their usual offerings.

Rather than give away a prize including a Southwest flight (which would just make sense!), the airline is giving away 7 free nights at any of the 850+ La Quinta Inn and Suites hotels around the United States!

While my experience with La Quinta is limited to our trip to the Mid-West  last year (when  we spent 3 nights in Kansas City), it was a decent hotel which came with a solid, free breakfast. Continue reading WIN: 7 FREE NIGHTS at La Quinta
