Fab Freebie: Maine Attractions

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

It’s a shame we can’t take any major road trips right now (thanks to our wee one) since this week’s giveaway has us itching to head north to Kennebunkport, Maine. That’s because Spaces Kennebunkport– the shop behind today’s prize- embodies just the type of comfortable seaside home accents that Sherry and I love. Never mind that we can barely spell the name… we still want to eat up everything in their store. Have no fear if you also can’t make it out to K-town. Spaces Kennebunkport has an awesome online shop and one of you is gonna win a $150 gift certificate to spend there. Score.

Kenne Four Grid

And not that we’re in the business of telling people how to spend their prize money, but here are some things we would totally snag for ourselves:

Kenne Our Picks

Wanna take home some of this beachy bliss? Here’s how to enter this week’s Fab Freebie (oh, and stay tuned for a discount code this Thursday):

  • PRIZE: $150 toward anything in Spaces Kennebunkport’s shop
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “MAINE ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … since our giveaway sponsors reside in a fairly uniquely-named town, we’d love to know of any unique / weird / funny city names that you live in, have visited, or have noticed on a map (i.e. Love, VA; Bummerville, CA; Sweet Lips, TN)
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 2nd at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in the USA
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    Not a funny town name, but there’s a street in Lawrenceville called “Hillandale,” so of course, whenever we drove across it, we had to make a crack about driving all over hill and dale…

    When I came to Kentucky for college, it was pretty amusing to learn that the KY town Versailles is pronounced not like the elegant palace in France but instead is pronounced Ver-sales. So very…southern. I can’t judge though, since I’m from South Carolina.

    I’ve never been anywhere with a weird name other than Tehachapi (t-hacha-p) but I have seen a road with the name of Jesse Hill – which I thought was really funny b/c its my brothers name.

    One time I was driving through Massachusetts and saw a sign for “Athol”. Say it out loud! Massachusetts has some of the funniest, I think!

    Oh Pennsylvania– how strange your town names can be. Such as Blue Ball, PA- which is located between Virginville, PA and Intercourse, PA. Also, Jersey Shore, PA (which is neither in Jersey or near any body of water).

    I think my personal favorite is Rough and Ready, PA (about 45 miles north of Harrisburg).
