This competition is fully sponsored by Cellforcash dot Com who are also giving away a Wii on their own website. CellForCash will pay you for your old cell phone! I know we have at least 3 old cell phones lying around somewhere. You can join their affiliate program so you can start earning cash for other people’s old cell phones.
Here is hoping I win either through John Cow or CellForCash's contest! I want to play for exercise, and I know my kids would enjoy it, too.

Dad blogger, Mike of Stay At Home Dad, Geek Style, is giving away an incredible, awesome, stupendous iMac computer! We really need another computer with 7 kids. We have one doing online school, 3 in high school, and another in upper grade school. Add in the preschooler who hollers for "pbskids" all day long, and my blogging addiction, and you can see how one computer is NOT working.


This incredible give-away's spec's are: 2.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 1 GB of memory, a 250 GB hard drive, an 8x SuperDrive (a DVD burner), and a 20″ glossy display and a mouse and keyboard, which retails for $1199.

How can Stay At Home Dad, Geek Style offer such an expensive and cool prize? For this contest, he has teamed up with SitterCity, an online database that allows babysitters and pet sitters to connect with the people who need them.
This is a really amazing idea. I checked out SitterCity, and I liked the idea so much that I have actually signed up for a babysitter profile. I started babysitting twice a week now, and I think it is a good way to bring in some extra money, and since I have kids all the time, whats a few more? I am definitely experienced in child care.

So, if I get a computer AND a job out of this contest, I only come out a winner!

This contest ends October 31st. You can earn tickets by writing a 250 word post, more than one blog if you want, put a sittercity banner on your sidebar, bid on Devdad's ad space, chip in for Devdad's dream set up, and "like" his page on stumbleupon.
