Classy Mommy Giveaway: Win a $10 Gas Gift Card!

Like me, I know most of you be feeling the squeeze at the gas pump. Even with virtually no commute, these prices hurt - and it looks like they might only get higher. I recently either read or saw on TV - can't remember where! - that worst case scenario has gas hitting $10 / gallon within the year.

This morning when I ran a few errands, I noticed I was almost on "E" with only 58 miles to go..... I would have pumped but the station near me had regular at $4.13 / gallon. Hoping I might find it cheaper somewhere else tomorrow......assuming I don't run out of gas first!


Thanks to Edmunds Savvy Shopper interactive sweepstakes game, I've got $10 gas gift cards to share with 2 lucky readers. To win more cool prizes, be sure to check out the Edmunds Savvy Shopper site. In the game, participants guess the price of a showcased vehicle in a game show setting to be entered into a weekly drawing for a cash prize, as well as the final prize of $3,500 cash that can be used towards a down payment on a new car.

To enter, just leave a comment on this post. Must be a US resident. 2 Winners will be selected to win a $10 gas gift card. Contest runs from May 31st, 2008 - June 8th, 2008. (Remember to include your email if you do not have a contact info in your profile!)
