Contest! Win a $250 Gift Card to Fairfield Inn and Suites! (Closed)

September 25, 2012

Fairfield Inn and Suites is celebrating their silver anniversary! During September they are giving guests a chance to win weekend getaways. The promotion is almost over, but don’t despair. To celebrate their 25 years, they are giving away a $250 Fairfield Inn and Suites gift card to one lucky Road Warriorette reader!

How to win? It’s simple, as always. Leave a comment answering the following question: What are the two things you can’t live without during a business trip? The winner will be drawn at random on Tuesday October 2. As always, only one entry per person please.

There are a bunch of things I can’t live without on a business trip, but the top two are pretty easy: my iPhone and pashmina. Both are multi-functional and have saved me many times on many different trips! So what are your two things?

Good luck!
