“Go To Bat” $100 Sports Authority Giveaway!

state farm go to batWell I haven’t done a giveaway in quite some time, so I figured I’d start with this one from State Farm and Sports Authority!

We’re going to give away Two $50 gift cards to Sports Authority!

State Farm has teamed up with MLB to give people a chance to attend the 2010 World Series, while at the same time making a difference for their favorite charity by “going to bat” for them.

All you have to do is visit, play the online Home Run Derby game for the charity you’d like to “go to bat” for and once a week, for ten weeks, State Farm will select a winner and their charity. The winner’s charity will receive a weekly donation ($100 for every home run hit that week in MLB) and the winner themselves will receive a trip for two to the 2010 World Series!

This “Go to Bat” program is void in Quebec & where prohibited. Participants must be a legal resident of the U.S. or Canadian provinces of Alberta, New Brunswick or Ontario, and must be 18+ at time of entry.

So to help spread the word for them, we were given TWO $50 gift cards to give out to our readers! (You’re very lucky too, I don’t get anything myself :))

You have 3 options to win one of these $50 cards:

  1. Follow our RSS feed and stay in the loop!
  2. Or, if you’re a tweeter, tweet: “State Farm Go To Bat: Support the charity of ur choice & u could win a Trip for 2 to World Series! http://tinyurl.com/25hxwku”. (Just let me know that you did this in the comments for tracking reasons)
  3. Or, tell us in the comments what you’d buy with this $50 if you won!

I will be using Random.org to choose the 2 winners next Monday, August 9th, so make sure you’re entered by that Sunday @ Midnight.  Good luck everyone!

    Awesome, I just took up Tennis as part of my three month challenge to lose a bunch of weight, and I could use some Tennis equipment that doesn’t come from GoodWill 🙂

    Man, there is a ton of stuff I need but I would either get myself some new Under Armour gear, or put the card toward purchasing a couple kettlebells. Both I desperately need!
