Giveaway: TripFLIX DVD

July 8, 2008

This giveaway is now closed. Thank you for your participation.
The winner is Eryn.
Congratulations!

From the product: “TripFLIX is a fun-filled interactive DVD that features some of the coolest kid-friendly places to travel across the U.S. The DVD is designed to help families pick an unusual travel destination – whether it’s clear across the country or right in your own backyard – and also to keep kids entertained and excited while en route. TripFLIX is packed with trivial questions, funny banter from the teen hosts/travel guides, and little known facts about destinations as varied as “Carhenge� in Nebraska and Space Camp in Huntsville, IL.�

With Summer upon us, many families will be looking for ways to entertain the kids and spend quality time together. And with high fuel prices raising the cost of airline tickets, many will probably look for alternatives closer to home. TripFLIX may have the perfect solution for you.

Besides Sea World, TripFLIX offers many off-the-beaten-path options that you may not have considered otherwise. For example, did you know that the entire city of Metropolis, IL is dedicated to the man of steel – Superman? You can even stop by and tour The Daily Globe! Or how about following in the footsteps of two of the greatest explorers who ever lived– Lewis & Clark? Fort Clapstop in Oregon will show you the campsite they set up in 1805. How’s that for education?

Living in Hawaii, we probably won’t be able to go on these road trips, however, the next time we travel to the Continental U.S., this valuable information will provide us with some cool kid-friendly options.

Retails at Amazon.com for $19.99.

Win yours here! I have a copy to give away to one lucky winner! To enter:

  • Just mention in comments your favorite summer destination before midnight, July 14th. That’s it!
  • A random winner will be selected and notified on July 15th.
  • The winner will then have 3 days to claim their prize.

To earn more entries, you may do one or all of the following. Each one counts as an extra ticket and a separate comment must be left for each option.

This giveaway is open to everyone world-wide. Good luck!

My favourite summer destination is Parksville, British Columbia! It has the most gorgeous beach, scattered with sanddollars. You can also walk for miles out with the water coming only to your waist! When the tide is out the kidlets can run wild for ages! My family loves it there.

If too much time goes by w/o a trip to the beach (6 hour drive sadly), I start to dry out. We make a long weekend trip about 3 times a year, and always go to the same set of towns on the Oregon coast. There’s the aquarium where the whale from Free Willy used to live, the old bay front where the kids can watch them pull up crab pots, and countless family restaurants where we can eat without going broke. My favorite part about the trip is that there are dozens of weird road side things to stop at at stretch our legs at.

We generally stick to day trips (during the week, unless it’s something dh really wants to join us on) during the summer when things are more crowded & then do our “real” vacation (I’d be perfectly happy to go to Disney every year LOL) during the school year when things are less crowded.

This summer’s main day trip destination is Sesame Place (little kid amusement park) since we have season passes & our fall main trip is going to be Disney, etc in FL :)
