Trudy Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 We head out on Friday afternoon Here's our trip plan - might be useful for you with the little contest we'll be doing We'll be counting/recording the number of Walmart trailers we see while on our trip. We know how everybody on Greytalk loves Walmart, so it seemed appropriate So, from today until we are ready to head out on Friday afternoon, you can post in this thread to let us know how many Walmart trailers you think we'll see on our trip. The ones that count are those that we see on the road, in rest areas, parked somewhere, whatever.... if we see a Walmart trailer, it will be counted. Once we get to Kodiak, we'll figure out a prize. Winner - the person that is the closest without going over will win. ONLY ONE WINNER, so make sure you aren't guessing the same number as somebody else. We'll close this thread before we hit the road on Friday, so get your guess in before then. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
