Free Raleigh, NC Getaway

You could win a FREE Raleigh Getaway!

If you've never been to NC, you don't know what you're missing! The mountains! The rivers! Raleigh is actually a gorgeous city and it's so close to all these things. Raleigh is not the stereotypical deep south city you might think it is. While it does have all that wonderful southern charm, it is also a very contemporary town combined with the affordability and appeal of a classic southern city.

There are hundreds of things to do in Raleigh. You can attend the ballet and see Carolina Ballet's Carmina Burana. You can check out the new exhibit: Ancient Fossils, New Discoveries at the N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences, or even see the N.C. Museum of Art’s Landscapes from the Age of Impressionism.

In fact, these are some of the things you can win by entering the FREE Raleigh Getaway contest.

-One night accommodations for two at the Courtyard by Marriott Raleigh Crabtree Valley
-$25 gift certificate to Bloomsbury Bistro
-Free VIP admission for two to Rum Runners
-2 tickets to the North Carolina Theatre
-2 tickets to the N.C. Museum of Art’s Landscapes from the Age of Impressionism

So make sure you register for the Fall Getaway Contest

Low Bid Auction?

Sounds odd eh? I'm not quite sure I get how this works yet. You find a prize you like at bid4prizes and bid on it just as you would at a regular auction. The difference is that with bid4prizes, the low bid wins, as long as it's the lowest 'unique' bid. That's the catch. You can bid lowest, but it must not be a bid that someone else has already bid.
Once you put your bid in, bid4prizes will tell you whether you are low, high, unique or duplicate and then it's your job to figure out how to bid next. Sounds easy, but somehow I don't think it's quite THAT easy. I would say that since the thing is kinda new, there won't be too many bidding right now. Not like the crazy amount of people bidding on eBay at least.
