Remember Scavenger Hunts

When I was little my grandmother would take me camping in Keswick New Jersey. I had so much fun their seeing my friends year after year and participating in games with them. One of my favorite activities was the scavenger hunt.

Perhaps it's the nostalgia of the hunt that got me hooked on this new type of giveaway that I found. The basic principals are very similar to a blog giveaway, but instead of looking for a favorite item you are trying to find a hidden word or picture. Because they require more work there are not as many entries which improve your odds.

This week I have been participating in Scavenger Hunts at Week in Rewind. To be eligible to win you first have to subscribe to his newsletter. This was no problem for me. My husband is a movie addict so we are already subscribed. Then you have to search through the movie reviews to find a variation of the prize name. He makes this easier by giving you an idea of where to look (He will tell you I-L or R-S). The word is always at the very end of the review and the entire sentence is written in red text. Once you find the word send him an email with the name of the review you found it in. You can enter everyday but the word is moved a couple of times a week so be sure to check before you send the email. You can also comment once a day to improve your odds.

There are two prizes up for grabs right now and they are GOOD ones. The prizes are a Wii and an iPod Touch. They both end March 17th.

Until Next Time Good Luck and Happy Hunting!
