Contest Beat

Are you a travel buff? Would you like to win $500 that you could put towards your next getaway? Then the $500 GoBudgetTravel.com getaway contest could be for you.

To enter, you need to write up a post that details an interesting “getaway” anywhere in the world that costs less than $500 (not including the airfare). It must also be for a minimum of 5 days and not include anything illegal (gambling, cock-fights, stuff like that are OK though apparently :))

There is a sample format and also some other rules and conditions that you should check out here. But it looks like it could be a pretty good way to earn 500 bucks towards your next trip!
