RetailMeNot, is an online coupon directory. They are similar to our own coupon directory but have been around a lot longer and have a much broader audience.   They are running a pretty fun Twitter contest right now.  They have a picture on their web site of a jar full of money.  If you guess the right amount of money and tweet about it on your Twitter account, you win the money!  Pretty easy and they let you make a new guess every day.  You can check out all of the details at RetailMeNot’s Money Jar page.

So, what was your guess? That looks like a lot of moolah to me!




Huggies has a pretty cool giveaway running right now.  I don’t know how long it’s been running but I stumbled across it today.  Each day, they are selecting one person and giving them free diapers for a year.  That is a pretty big chunk of change when you add up diapers over a full years time.  The giveaway runs until 12/31.

We know why they do something like this.  It’s been shown in study after study that parents who find a diaper that works for their baby, generally stick with that diaper and get it over and over again.  Not only that, they buy the diaper to use in diaper cakes when giving baby gifts to friends and they recommend their favorite brand to new mothers.  They get free publicity for running the giveaway, a database of people who are interested in getting diapers and get one lucky winner comfortable with their product by having them use it for a year.  It’s a great way to market themselves to parents and a great prize for the winners.

If you sign up for the giveaway, the only negative I can think of is that you will end up getting junk mail from Huggies but much of that junk mail will probably include coupons so it balances out if you have an interest or need for their products.  If you want to try your luck, you can signup here.




We went live on 10/1/2010 but our site is still a work in progress. Our contests page will keep you up to date on the latest contests and giveaways that we find online. We will post contests that we believe families can benefit from and that we are reasonably sure are legitimate. Please subscribe to our RSS feed and check back soon! We think you will be proud of what we are going to turn this site into.
