Giveaway: Two Freddie Awards Swag Bags Up for Grabs

May 3, 2013 by Angelina Aucello 60 Comments

Last week I had an awesome time at the 25th annual Freddie Awards that was held at the USA Today headquarters in VA. I was able to get my hands on not only one, but two, swag bags that were being handed out to all attendees. Since I am a minimalist at heart, I’ll go ahead and pass them along to two readers.

Inside the collectible 2013 Freddie Awards/AmEx reusable tote, there’s a leather notebook from Priority Pass, a copy of the latest issue of Inside Flyer Magazine, Executive Travel magazine, a notepad and pen from USAToday, and a multi-device retractable USB charger from Gogo.

I’ll keep this giveaway short and sweet.

One swag bag will go to to a winner from the comments section, and one will go to a Tweeter.

To win by commenting, all you have to do is leave a comment below sharing your favorite types of posts on the blog. I have a lot of fun ideas as to where I want to take the blog in the near future, and I appreciate all of the feedback and support I get from the readers. Simply leave a suggestion, tell me what you want to see more of, less of, or just any general feedback and comments.

To win by tweeting, follow me on twitter and send me a tweet saying anything your heart desires (be nice…) using #hashtag #JAPTGiveaway. A sample tweet would look like this: “HI! @angelinaaucello #JAPTGiveaway”

I’ll select a winner randomly from the comments and tweets on Monday May 7th at 9:00 AM ET. Good luck guys!

    I like to see offers I may have missed. Also, I really appreciate your blog because I’m not Miz Fancy Pants, and am looking for deals more like you are. LOL!! Thanks.

    I like the deal roundups. But I like the personal interaction stories even more. I’d like to read more on how things actually work in the real world – the tips and trips to make the deal roundups successful without pulling out one’s hair first. Thank you for your time and efforts!

    I’d love to read about restaurants, fancy or dives, that you’ve discovered on your trips. Often I’ve got our flights down, our hotel picked out, sites we want to see, and it’s restaurant info that we lack. It’s fun to discover spots but it’s also fun to have some local knowledge. Thanks, I read your blog with my coffee in the morn.
