We are nearing the end of 2010, have just finished an awesome Christmas season, and are ready for another fabulous year to come. So what better time to go on vacation (we told the children we would celebrate becoming debt free earlier this year by saving up and going on a family vacation), rest up so we are ready to hit the year 2011 running, and throw in an awesome giveaway to finish off our most amazing month of giveaways yet!
To us it only made sense for us to do this giveaway to continue on the tradition of our children. What do I mean? The last two times that Cas and I left town (for Savvy Blogging Summit and the SaveUp 2010 event for all DealPro’s) our children gave away two $50 Amazon gift cards. So since they are with us we thought it would only be prudent for us to give away the $100 Amazon gift card – and they think its pretty cool, too!
Now don’t think that just because we are out of town (we’ll try to share some of our tips we used on saving money for this trip and some sneak peeks at what we are up to on vacation) that the posts will stop. No way! We will be posting away while we’re gone and some of our friends have even offered some great articles to share as well! We don’t want you to miss out so here’s how this week’s game is going to be played.
How To Enter Today’s Giveaway, there are four (or more??) possible ways to enter:
- Leave us a comment sharing with us what you would love to see more of in 2011. We have some surprises coming and would love to hear from you on what you want to see more of in the year to come!
For additional entries:
- Like The Thrifty Couple on Facebook and then leave a comment to tell us you did or that you already are.
- Sign-up for our FREE Email Newsletter then have our deals delivered to your inbox daily so never miss a deal or another giveaway! You must confirm your subscription before commenting (a confirmation email will be sent to you that you will need to click through to confirm that you would like to receive emails from us!)! If you are already a confirmed subscriber, just leave a comment for your entry.
- Come back every day thereafter and leave one comment saying hi or sharing anything at all that you would like. This way you won’t miss out on all of our fun things we want to share with you this week!
This Giveaway will end on Monday, January 3, 2011 at Midnight MST and is open to all U.S. residents 18 years or older.
A couple of addition points:
1. Leave a separate comment for each of the above things you do, each comment and activity you complete is an entry.
2. Be sure to leave your comments for entries here on this post to be counted as an entry.
We hope you love ending the year on this fun note! We can’t wait to see what the new year brings – and hope that you can’t either!

I’d like to see more professional-looking emails. They have great deals and information, but they take forever to scroll through, so I often ignore the emails.
