Giveaway: "Follow You Monday"… Let's Go Shopping Together in Your Hometown (AND Do Some Good!)
Do you know that it has almost been a whole year since I have had the opportunity to fly to the hometown of a Hip2Save reader?! With that being said, I am more than ready to go on another Follow You Monday adventure. 😀
So, the Hip2Save crew (i.e. my sister, Bryn, Ma – the best grandma ever, my new sidekick, Mary, as well as my new video dude, Isaac – still needing a girlfriend by the way! 😉 ) and I will fly to the winner’s hometown for a weekend of their choice in October to do a little deal shopping! Not only that, but the winner will also receive a $100 gift card to the store of their choice! With the $100 gift card, we’ll go coupon shopping and see just how far we can make that $100 go… and we’ll be doing all of this while on camera filming a “Follow You Monday” episode!
To change things up a little bit, this “Follow You Monday” trip will have an added twist. Since I was and still am so inspired after the recent Hip2Help Tour, I want to continue to give back during this upcoming “Follow You Monday” trip! The winning reader will pick a charity, family in need, or any other cause that is important to them and we will spend the day helping (in whatever ways necessary) and trying to make a difference (however big or small).
If you are interested in entering this giveaway, please complete the entry form found here. <————
* This giveaway will end on Thursday, August 4th at 11:59PM EST and the randomly selected winners will be announced the following day; you must be a U.S. resident to enter this giveaway. Good luck!
That would be AWESOME!!! Thanks for the giveaway opportunity 🙂
I hope my lottery comes up on this one, it would be SO awesome!!
What a super fun giveaway!!! I know you want to come to Florida and spend some time at the beach 🙂
LOL, love the pic
I can’t say that my town would be the most exciting place to visit but it sure would be awesome to win!
LOL I am so thinking the same thing… well lets see none of my grocery stores double coupons or allow overage but ah what the hey the whole point is to meet Collin anyway 🙂
Please, please, please come to San Diego!!! That would be AWESOME!!!
I 2nd this!!! I put in as well so this helps San Diego!!!
Fingers crossed!
You should have your own reality show 🙂
I agree! I would definitely watch!
This is an awesome way to “Give Back”! I can’t think of a more fun way to “Give Back” and have fun doing it in the process! Go Collin!!! You continue to amaze me with all of your fun giveaways and tactics for shopping in the process!
Collin’s
Outrageous,
Unequivibly,
Play
On
Nothing, but
Shopping!
hahahahaha your pic just brightened my day!
The weirdest dream I was thinking that we should win a trip to shop with you,lol. Look whats here so freaky in a great way LOL. WOW
Yes! Come to FLORIDA!!! We can go shopping…than off to the beach!
If you love a good challenge, come to my town! I’m always so disappointed when people say they get these great bargains and then you look and they live in a low cost of living area. Bring your big guns to the Chicago ‘burbs and let’s see what you can do in a HIGH cost of living area!
Oh, and Isaac, I know a wonderful single Italian girl who would love to “hang out” with us…..
Oh, Wow, Collin! Now, that would really make my day!!! I have so wanted to meet you and your crew, and we could have so much fun helping someone else, too. 🙂
I would love to win! Especially since I live in Walmart country and that is about all we have.
I would LOVE to do this…I think Id be nervous that the store I go to will be out of everything I want/plan on getting!
…but it just sounds like too much fun NOT to sign up for! 😛
How is that guy single?! haha :0
haha that is what I came here to comment about too!! 🙂
Coastal Boston suburb is PERFECT in October! Best restaurants around are in this area (and I have a lot of 80% off restaurant.com coupons to use’;).
Boston is a VERY expensive area to raise a family so I could really use some tricks and tips!
a great charity in this area is The Home for Little Wanderers.. amazing things for children of all ages I love their Motto “Where Hope Lives”.
So, how many times can one enter? Just once? Or once a day? Because if I can increase my chances of winning, I’m going to! But, no one else should because that would really stink for me 😉
Just once… but good luck! 😀
I hope I win!! I live near Joplin, MO and I would love for Collin to do something for them! Not to mention how much fun it would be to shop with her and her “crew” 🙂
I would like to enter. I live just outside Ringgold GA. a small town hit by the April tornadoes.
Diane, I live in East Ridge/Chattanooga!
Glad to see so many in my area! I am in Cleveland, just outside Chatt!!
Come to Chicago!
Plus- howcome we can never see Isaac?!?
Are you really in that cart?..you are a goof and remind me of myself..my Target cart will hold you great..come to Jersey.
Come to Nashville, Tennessee! It’s beautiful here in the fall!
collin im only 11 and love to coupon and its like my dream to shop with you my birthday augast 4th and omg i hope i win
nicole i am thirteen. cool to see another person my age that loves to coupon.
Yes CHICAGO 🙂
Come to Southeastern Michigan (even if not this time) – it tends to get (largely undeserved) bad publicity which overshadows the fact that we have upscale dining, shopping and a lot of cultural and social events which just don’t get the attention that they deserve.
We also have a number of good causes which really should get more attention.
Where are you from in MI? I’m from Ann Arbor!
Ooo how I would love to win this!! What an awesome idea!
Question, I know this is probably rude to invite yourself and all, but what if you live in the same town as the winner, could it be possible that you would let the readers know where you are on the “giving back” day? I would love to help give back any way shape or form I could, and the more people who help, the better. And I would just love to me you! So please come here, and I bet you will have tons of people who would love to help 🙂
I know you have been to Florida but South Florida is totally different. Come down here for fun,beaches:)
would love to spend the day with you!
Shopping with you and your crew would be the ultimate giveaway! How fun!!
Wow I love your site and what a great birthday present that would make to actually meet up with a fellow couponer with such great information. I followed your Hip2help tour and cried almost every video. Its things like that why I give back to those in need.
I live in a small rural town in NY with only 2 grocery stores, but it would still be fun to shop with you. October is our local SPCA’s biggest fundraiser–a theme basket auction. I am sure they could use our help with that event!
I thought it was so awesome when you went and shopped and had dinner with one of your readers last year. I would love to win, not a whole lot to do in my town of MS, but we do have some great restaurants and there are a handful of them that we can get Restaurant.com gift certificates for! Woohoo!
I don’t know….I’m thinking the Seattle area, home of the very first STARBUCKS might be a great place for you to visit….:)
I think you would have a real challenge shopping here in Hawaii. I would love to see what you do, especially at the commissary. I hope I win!!!!!
This is a great giveaway. The metro Phoenix area is nice in October. Thanks for all you do.
Collin, I would LOVE for you to come help me! I just moved into my own apartment and I definitely use every penny while I’m still paying off my student loans, car and now an apartment! While I’m great at saving money in drug stores, Walmart and Target, I could definitely use your expert at saving money as I grocery shop in Philadelphia!
Oh, and I’m 27 and single 😉 LOL
Hey, isn’t Philly’s motto the city of brotherly LOVE?? 😉 haha I think it’s a sign that she should pick you 😀
Brotherly love? My husband is from Philly and he says it’s the city of brotherly shove. 🙂 I guess it all depends! lol
We still live close to Philly.
Colin…thanks for the chance to win this incredible opportunity!! How could you resist my town…we are the home of Hungry Mother State Park. Just think of the fun we could have with a park named that and The Hip2ave Queen…YOU!!!
Collin, come to Normal, IL! Just think of the fun you could have with that name! We are minutes from the Central IL airport! We have a beautiful new hotel in uptown Normal! I promise you would LOVE it! It’s funny because I was just thinking today that I needed to go shopping WITH you because I still don’t have my GROCERY shopping skills down. I’m okay @ Walgreens and CVS, but I really need your help at Kroger or Wal-Mart Supercenter for groceries. Our cupboards are looking pretty bare. No hoarding label for me! Leslie
I live in central IL too! (twenty or so minutes from normal) It would be amazing if Collin really came to our area!
Collin, question on the charity, I don’t want to enter this and not be able to do for this specific family. I live in a bigger city, however, a couple hours away from where this family is located. I personally would be so very willing to drive too!
What a neat idea!
Can someone tell me – if you win a giveaway, does the email look different than the regular daily hip to save emails (in the comment section)? I usually don’t open hip2save emails that I get daily since I get on the site a few times a day. I don’t want to accidentally delete an email that says I won (here’s hoping)! I don’t want to bother Collin with such a silly question – I know she’s plenty busy!
When I have won, Brynn actually sent the message, so I noticed the difference right away!
Thanks!
I love all these contests you do, but I still don’t understand how to enter???? Anyone…. please????
That’s a really sweet thing for you to do. I look forward to watching the video for this.
I would love to have you come and me be a part of your follow me monday series. If I am chosen, I have a place that is in great need of supplies. My church currently runs a food and clothing closet and we are extreamly low at this point. I take a portion of my saving each month and apply it to things that i can get for my church, but I am just one person. I also search for the free items and love when I can work the closet and see the faces of the people come in and get what I have provided. I understand how you are so moved and inspired to help after what you have just done. Giving to others is awsome, love the feeling I get when doing this. Would love to have you and join me in the fun.
Woo hoo! Come to Philly!!
pick me! pick me! lol. I would LOVE to meet you and your crew! it would be so wesome to meet you! I live in SW FL, so we could go to the beach, too. 😉
Come on, you know you want to come to Fort Hood, TX!!!!! I currently am assigned to the Warrioir Transition Unit here (unit specific for wounded warriors) and there is always tons to be done to help my fellow brothers and sisters! Plus, we don’t have any store here that doubles coupons so I would LOVE to learn more tips on how to better use coupons. We are saving $$$ for a larger house so we can continue to do foster care!
collin, you and I pretty much have the same personality so it would be quite funny to see if each of us could get a word in edgewise or make it out of a coffee shop.
Collin, you never cease to amaze me! You’re just so awesome! I live in Charlotte – just a hop, skip, and a jump from where you live. So, I imagine that if you draw my name, you might be disappointed not to be going anywhere out of state. I went ahead and entered, but would totally understand if you want to draw again (on the off-chance that you draw my name) and go somewhere else. If you’re ever passing through Charlotte though, I’d be honored to have you shop with me! Thanks for all you do!
Hope I win 🙂 Would be awesome to meet Collin!
