Cool Contest for College-Bound Students

July 28th, 2010

It’s almost August, which means you are in the home stretch when it comes to heading off to college. Chances are good that you’ve got most of your stuff packed up already, although with all the great goodies that are in store for college-bound students, another shopping trip is always an option.

Speaking of shopping, be sure to check out Bed Bath & Beyond’s huge college contest, which is co-sponsored by HGTV. The grand prize includes a $10,000 check, a $5,000 Bed Bath & Beyond gift card, and a personal consultation with HGTV Designer. The other prizes aren’t too shabby either, and if you sign up with your email address, you’ll be entered into a contest that awards a gift card each hour!

Dorm rooms and their furniture can be pretty ho-hum, so imagine what you can do with your new campus digs if you won this contest. Good luck!

Great contest! As a current college senior, a growing trend that I have seen in the last several years is buying a prepaid debit card, like Netspend , putting $50 on it, and keeping it for emergencies. It is better than cash and you can keep it in your wallet or store it in your car. It is always good to plan for purchases that may come when you least expect them. Good luck to all entering college this year!
