Black and Decker Will Take You Day Trippin’

In honor of the launch of CitiesOnTheCheap – and in the spirit of my blog post yesterday – the good folks at Black and Decker are offering OnTheCheap readers a chance to win the latest in Day Trip gadgetry – the Black and Decker portable 100 watt Power Inverter. Just plug this handy dandy little gadget into your car’s cigarette lighter and instantly you have a portable household outlet – perfect for recharging iPods, cell phones and all those other electronic devices that make riding in the car for an hour so much more pleasant than it was when I was growing up. (Twenty seven rounds of “Kumbya,” anyone?)

So how do you win one for your own? Simple. In my post “Quoth the Raven,” I shared a recent day trip I took with two of my children. Now I want you to do the same. Share a great day trip destination in the Delaware Valley.  This way, I’ll have new ideas the next time my family hits the road…and you may just have your very own Power Inverter.  No more “99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall” for you.

ALSO – IMPORTANT – Leave your email address with the post. If you don’t wish to do that, please email your address to me at phillyonthecheap at gmail.com. I need some way to reach you if you win!

Post your idea in the comments section between now and March 20.  For you sticklers, the official rules are here, and the winner will be chosen at random.  Good luck, and happy launching, CitiesOnTheCheap!
