Attention all overspent holiday shoppers with bills coming due now. Mint.com, a free online money management service, is sponsoring a contest that could help you pay off those pesky credit card bills.
Mint is looking for the funniest, saddest and/or most creative stories from people who have holiday spending experiences they want to share. As part of its “$5K cure for your Holiday Spending Hangover” contest, the company will pay off two winners’ 2007 credit card balance, up to $5K each. The winners will also get a free credit counseling session with InCharge Debt Solutions, a nonprofit credit counseling and financial education organization. InCharge Debt Solutions is affiliated with Young Money’s parent company, the InCharge Education Foundation.
Contest submissions may be in writing or via a video and can be submitted via a link on mint.com or on the contest website contest.mint.com. The submissions will be online for all to view and rate until March 15th.
The ten highest rated stories and ten highest rated videos will then be judged by a panel of experts and two Grand Prizes awarded on or around April 1…just in time to pay off any remaining credit card balances, fund an IRA or pay taxes.
We could all use an extra $5,000 so I hope you will take a chance and compete.
