Aero247 Posted September 12, 2006 #1 Share Posted September 12, 2006 If this has been posted already, I'm sorry. While thumbing through a magazine today I noticed this contest. www.carnivalconnections.com/contest If anyone here is good at writing essays you could win a cruise for 20 people. You better hurry though...... CONTEST SCHEDULE: You may enter the Contest between 12:00:00 am ET on 9/4/06 and 11:59:59 pm ET on 9/30/06 ("Contest Period"). Good luck, I hope someone from here wins but of course they had better write a great review since we'll know they can write well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck, I hope someone from here wins but of course they had better write a great review since we'll know they can write well. Some additional details... The contest is for a trip from 3-7 days, valued up to $15,000. So I imagine that if you want to take 19 of your closest friends and family, then you will probably be on a trip to nowhere. If you book a 7 day trip, you will probably max out at 10 or 12 people, depending on your cabin selection. vincenzo:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keke1031 Posted September 13, 2006 #8 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I noticed it last night...and stayed up and filled it out...Who wouldnt want to win a free cruise for 20 of your best friends and family. It was fun coming up with the essay. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weaveramamama Posted September 13, 2006 #9 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I would love it as well - my last comment was just to let entrants know that it will still cost the prize winner and their guests quite a bit of money. Some contests include airfare, etc. This one would be wonderful to win - but make sure you're aware of the costs you will incur if you win... Good Luck! Let us know if it's you that wins!

vincenzo0506 Posted September 13, 2006 #10 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hey guys (and gals) - it's still a free cruise. Do we have to complain about everything? Um, read the post...It says additional information, not complaints....Just saying its a free cruie for you and 19 of your buddies could be misleading, we were simply supplying some additional information. You know how people get. They think its one thing and it turns out to be something else...:rolleyes: vincenzo:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm....pay for taxes and airfare and get a free cruise... or pay for taxes, airfare, and the cruise.... I'll take the first! I understand you guys are just pointing out that it's not all "free"...but it's a pretty hefty discount if you ask me! And I won't complain if I win!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysticks1 Posted September 17, 2006 #24 Share Posted September 17, 2006 The entry form will allow you to paste a document into it. It was a small space to type so I typed mine into Microsoft Word and made all changes necessary and then copied and pasted it into the form. It was much easier to see, especially if you were counting your words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
