You may have noticed on Marshall Jackson on Travel and View from the Wing that a couple of BoardingArea bloggers are offering a free night at Hilton. Well, I’m one of those blogs. 
Thanks to the nice folks here at BoardingArea and Hilton I’m offering one “Be My Guest” certificate that is valid for one free night (room and tax) at any participating Hilton property in the United States. It expires on June 30, 2010.
All you need to do to enter is comment on this post. Any comment. Really. Just make sure you include a real e-mail address when you comment so I can notify you if you win.
Make sure you comment by noon Eastern a week from today, February 19th. After that I’ll randomly pick one commenter.
Good luck!
This is an awesome blog! Thanks for all you write!
If you’re giving one away as well, I guess I’ll leave a comment here too then
Cool contest, thanks for sharing it with us. Enjoying the blog!

U should feel good that ur in a 3-way race 2 see if u, Marshall/Gary will be the 1st 2 not only gift me a free HH nite but 2 be the 1st 2 help me anything(those car raffles @ the mall don’t count b/c eveyone wins those 3days & 2nites pls buy our timeshare scams). U r now officially entered n2 this race! U should feel good.
I’d like to enter to win the certificate on the blog
My bags are packed, take me to the Hilton.
Happy Valentines Day! Keep on blogging!
Beach vacation in florida, s’il vous plaît..
Thanks for doing the Hilton drawing. Please ask Hilton why my HHonors Account has expired twice in the last 5 years ? Priority/IC Ambassador and Marriott Memberships are good for life. I discovered I had a Priority Club Membership from 1984 when I checked into a Holiday Inn in Sarejevo in 2003.
Here’s hoping for a free night. Thanks
Three for Three!

It’s great that you are giving away a free night at the Hilton. I wonder how many terms, conditions, fees, taxes, restrictions, resort fees, surtaxes, groundskeeping fees, service charges and other items will be involved?
