Review & Giveaway: Goby.com $50 Gift Card

I am so excited about this giveaway!  This is one of those great things that I may never have learned about without my blog.

I received an email from GOBY.com !

An amazing new site for those looking for enjoyable activities at reasonable (or free) prices, Goby.com (pronounced GO-be) is a new, one-of-its-kind search engine that helps find fun new ways to spend your free time. Goby searches more than 300 different categories of “things to do,” including several that locate dozens of free or inexpensive activities around the country.

From kids playgrounds, hiking and mountain bike trails to antique and craft fairs to birdwatching and winery locations, frugal fun-seekers won’t have to look far to find something to do—today, tonight, next week or next month.

We aren’t just talking about 1 or 2 things.  I typed in my city and told it I was looking for family fun and it gave me 23 things! 23!

Goby asks you just three questions: What, Where and When.  By just answering two of the three questions, users instantly receive an easy-to-read results page that includes not only detailed information about attractions, activities, locations and events, but also interactive maps and photos from Google and Flickr.  Don’t you just adore technology!

My family is always looking for free or frugal ideas for things to do with the kids.  Goby.com lists parks, and free/low cost events in your area! I am in love!  No more sitting around Saturday morning with that all too familiar conversation.

Me- “What do you want to do today?”

Hubby- ” I don’t know what do you want to do?”

Me- ” Well, What do you feel like?”

Hubby- ” I don’t know.”

Yes, it could go on like this for a while.  You have had this same conversation I am sure! Not anymore thanks to GOBY.com
