Contest Winners & Other News!

First of all, I’d like to welcome all new subscribers to Terrance Talks Travel. There may be some of you who signed up just to win VIRTUAL VACATION DAY prizes. However, I hope you’ll stick around because I have another giveaway coming up in late May or early June and another contest in the fall.

In the meantime, I will continue to reveal great travel tips and super TRIP PICKS.

A big “Thanks!” to everyone who helped spread the word about the contest on their social media pages and also to everyone who posted comments about your dream trips (virtual vacations). Some of you put those comments on pages other than the contest page, but that’s okay. As long as they were on my site, they counted as bonus entries for the contest.

I have made note of all your dream destinations and will be on the lookout for trips and tips applicable to those specific vacations. There was quite a bit of interest in Europe. I often come across great deals on European tours and cruises, so I will be sure to include that information in upcoming posts. All of you have great dream trips, including a Mediterranean cruise, a London “Harry Potter theme” trip, Grand Canyon, and road tripping across America. I will help any way I can so that you might achieve your dream vacation. Please do not hesitate to send a comment (comment box is at the bottom of this post and all posts) if you need specific information and I will address it.

So on to the contest winners…

As a travel agent, I am qualified to plan and book vacations and will do so free of charge, if Terry so wishes (or I am happy to discuss travel in general with him). Offer expires April 30, 2017 and trip must be taken by December 30, 2017.

As promised, everyone on my subscriber list wins a prize, which is my brand new book, HOW TO FLY CHEAP! This reference shares all kinds of secrets the airlines do NOT want you to know about how to always get the cheapest fare on any flight, how to obtain free or super cheap upgrades, how to avoid airport lines and flight delays, and much more. To get your complimentary copy, go to Smashwords and enter Coupon Code: HJ83G. Limit (1) coupon per subscriber and the coupon expires April 14, 2017. I would like to encourage you to leave a short review on Goodreads, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo or Smashwords. Sharing a sentence or two regarding what you liked about this book is helpful to other readers.
