The “Shop Your Prize” Travel Gear Giveaway [Ended]

Did you get everything you wanted from Santa this year?

If you’re like me then you’re thankful for any gifts you’ve been given this holiday season, but there’s still always that one little thing that you wish you had gotten underneath the tree and didn’t. Am I right?

Well, we at Her Packing List are giving you the chance to “Shop Your Prize” and potentially win $50 in travel goodies (that YOU pick out)!

**CONTEST ENDED: Winner was Alex Butts!**

Shop Your Prize Giveaway

 

All I’m asking is that you do the following:

1. Head over to Amazon’s travel section and fill your shopping cart with up to $50 worth of travel gear related goods.

That can be stuffable daypacks, toiletry bags, sleep sheets, travel towels, Exofficio underwear, travel wash… you name it!

shop on Amazon

2. Once you fill your Amazon shopping cart, take a screenshot (or photo) of it.

screen shot of shopping cart

The screen shot of your shopping cart. Keep it under $50!

 
3. Send the screenshot to me so I can see you did your shopping.

You can do this via email (contact (at) herpackinglist (dot) com), sending a tweet photo on Twitter (@herpackinglist), uploading to Facebook wall or messages, uploading to Flickr and sending me the link, etc. I don’t care how you do it, as long as I get a screenshot of your shopping cart through the Interwebs.

An example of submitting the screenshot through Twitter.

4. Then, leave a comment ON THIS POST letting me know that you entered and how you sent the screenshot.

Comment on the blog post to acknowledge you've sent the screenshot, and how.

5. Make sure this is done before the end of January 16th (11:59PM, EST, US time).

That’s it! I’ll then draw a random winner in a week’s time and give them a $50 Amazon gift card so that they can check out!

Head to Amazon to start shopping now!

 
Oh… and in case you missed it on Facebook, by signing up to the HPL site Newsletter, you might get an extra bonus in this giveaway! Bonus to be announced later (it’s a surprise), but get to signing up right now.

 
Tip: Keep your items in your shopping cart after you send me the screenshot. If you win, it’ll be super easy to go back to your account and click PROCEED TO CHECKOUT without having to search for everything again. You should make sure you already have an Amazon account so it saves.

Extra Bits: Open to readers worldwide. Just remember that you will receive a $50 gift card for the Amazon US store. Your items must be travel related in some way to be eligible. All entries must be received by 11:59PM EST, US time on January 16, 2013. Winner will be drawn using Random.org on January 17th. There are Amazon affiliate links in this post. We do a lot of that around here so we can keep the site truckin’.

In the meantime: Happy Shopping!
