Club Carlson Week 4 trips

After registering for the promotion, members can vote once each day for an additional sweepstakes entry. This week your choice is vote for Virginia Beach or Niagara Falls as the Great Escape. The rules state the destination with the most votes is the prize destination for the week. So if you really want Niagara Falls, you can vote for Niagara Falls seven times, but as the winner you still might end up winning the trip to Virginia Beach if the votes go that way.

One of the things I have noticed more frequently this past year is sweepstakes terms tend to offer a cash prize to offset the tax liability for large cash value prize wins. These Club Carlson prizes tend to be $4,000 to $7,000 ARV.

Entry Period Four

Prize A: ARV: $3,970 USD/$4,315 CAD. Winner will receive a check for $1,000 USD to help offset but not completely eliminate the potential tax responsibility associated with the acceptance of the prize.

Prize B: ARV: $4,150 USD/$4,510 CAD. Winner will receive a check for $1,000 USD to help offset but not completely eliminate the potential tax responsibility associated with the acceptance of the prize

Another feature of the Club Carlson Great Escape Face-Off Sweepstakes is each week there is a Club Carlson blog Destination Guide for the two hotels and locations in the Face-Off.
