Hotels.com has announced its new 'I Need a Vacation' summer
sweepstakes where the winner will be awarded the ability to take a
lifetime of vacations.
The winner of the sweepstakes will receive the prize as a one-time check for
$102,250 which they can use however they want. The prize money is calculated on an
assumption that the average winner will take 50 vacations over the course of a
lifetime, worth approximately $2,045 each.
Contestants will need to register on the Hotels.com website to be eligible for the
Hotels.com summer sweepstakes. Entries will be voted on after users upload the
funniest, most creative and compelling photo of themselves, which shows why they
deserve a vacation. The contest will continue throughout the summer with a winner
announced in early September. This would give entrants plenty of time to choose
destinations and hotels for next summer including the ever popular New York hotels and Orlando hotels.
"'I Need A Vacation' is our way of giving a huge thank you to our loyal
customers," said Taylor L. Cole, APR, director of public relations for Hotels.com. "It's the biggest promotion we've done to date and we are excited to be able to
offer someone a chance to have 50 years of spectacular vacations courtesy of
Hotels.com. We're proving that we're not only the smartest way to book travel, but
also the most rewarding."
In addition to the grand prize, Hotels.com is giving away the chance to win Flip
(TM) Ultra camcorders. All contestants who upload a picture will be entered into
both the 'I Need a Vacation Life' sweepstakes and the chance to win the Flip (TM)
Ultra camcorder. The camcorder prize will be awarded to the user who accumulates the
most votes that day. However even if visitors do not upload a photo, they can still
be entered into an additional random daily draw for the opportunity to win a Flip
(TM) camcorder of their own, just by voting for their favorite 'I need a vacation'
look.
