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!

    My grandmother lives on Cape Cod and to visit her growing up we would have to drive through “Sandwich”, Massachusetts.

    Currently I work for the town of “Los Gatos” which means “The Cats”.

    MAINE ME! Unfortunately, I have never lived anywhere with a fun city name… I do think Hell, Michigan would be a fun place to visit though! Especially in the winter, when Hell freezes over.

    Oh, please “MAINE ME”!! Yes, I mean ME!! This store enbodies my absolute style! Love everything that says New England coast and beaches.

    I live in a town called Chincoteague Island on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. It is an Indian name. And in front of us is a barrier island called Assateague. Chincoteague is known for the “wild” ponies that live on Assateague and which the “salt water cowboys” (local firemen) round up each year, swim across the channel between the two islands, and auction off the foals as a fun raiser for the fire company. All this was made famous in the book “Misty of Chincoteague.” We are a small fishing town turned into a great beach vacation location.

    My husband is from Colon, MI. I asked him why the town had that name and he said it was because the local lake was shaped like a colon. When I gagged he said “No! The punctuation colon!”
