Week One, Day Two -- Prizes to Come

We have a slight unfair advantage from the onset because we know, for a fact, of two prizes we are about to win. But don't hold it against us...we'll still have 50 prizes left to win!

Anyway, a couple of months ago, Marlboro started up a contest called Outwit the West. This year's is the fourth of it's kind. The way it works is over the course of ten weeks, we are answering a total of 50 trivia questions about the west. Understand that these are not straightforward questions. The questions themselves are often in riddle form and the answers are quite subjective. But for each correct answer we submit, we get a particular number of points to accumulate for a prize. As we are nearing the end of the contest, it is becoming clear that each of us will get the prize we were shooting for.

Mike is working toward a Fuji Nevada mountain bike.

Teresa is working toward a Samsung netbook.

When we actually redeem our points for these prizes, we will include them in our list of winnings.

This particular contest proves our theory that winning has more to do with determination than anything else. We've worked hard for these prizes but it's a nice way to start off our 52 prizes project.

But now it's time to get busy entering as many contests as possible. After a quick google search for contests and sweepstakes, here is what we are entering today:


If you're playing along with us, don't forget to come back tomorrow so you can enter the daily contests again.
