My daughter came home from school the other day extremely excited about the chance for us to go to Alaska. I couldn’t understand what she was talking about except that some boy gave her a coupon out of his lunchbox. Once I got her to give me the coupon, I figured out that she was at least a little bit right. Our family might not be going to Alaska for free, but someone’s will!
Sargento (Moo Town) has teamed up with National Geographic Expeditions to give away a trip for 4 to Alaska. The trip includes all meals, transfers, accommodations, and tours for eight days. The total value is over $30,000! The one down side is that the trip must be taken August 22-29, 2010.
Click here to visit the contest page. The promotion ends on April 30. Even if you don’t win the Grand Prize, you may still win one of 100 first prizes, a National Geographic Alaska Traveler book.

I’ve always been a fan of Betty Crocker, mainly because she makes me look like a rock star in front of my kids. I can whip up cakes and cookies so fast when they come home from school that they think I have been baking all day. Now I’m a fan of Betty Crocker for another reason, the Betty Crocker Stirring Up Wishes program. I’m participating, and you can, too.
Betty Crocker is helping grant wishes through the Make-A-Wish Foundation. You can help in two ways. First, you can donate $5 on the Stirring Up Wishes website and be able to then download $5 in Betty Crocker Coupons. You can also purchase specially marked Betty Crocker products and 10 cents will be donated for each package purchased. Products include cakes, cookie mixes, muffin mixes, frosting, Bisquick, and more.
Thanks to Betty Crocker and MyBlogSpark, I also have a Stirring Up Wishes Prize Pack to give out to one lucky reader. It includes a Betty Crocker mixing spoon, a Betty Crocker Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix, and a Betty Crocker Brownie Mix. In addition, they will make a $25 d0nation to the Make-A-Wish foundation on your behalf.
