We at CYber SYtes love to run monthly specials to incentivize new website business, show you how much we love you and to have a little fun.  For the next couple months, we wanted to do something a little different and get your feedback on what you’d like to see.

So.  We’re doing a survey.  We want to know what specials you’d like to see us have, what would move you off the fence or help persuade you to consider us as your website partner.

And, to spice things up a bit, we’re giving away a $50 Simon American Express Gift Card (from our friends at Pier Park).

Here’s how it works.

Wow, this must be the week.  If you’re reading this, take the hint and plan your next trip to Panama City Beach. 

We just posted our latest survey, and to bait your responses, one of the prizes is a two night stay at Laketown Wharf, amongst a flury of other very cool prizes.  But, this isn’t about our survey, this is about what Sterling Resorts is doing.  It’s really awesome.

They’re giving away a two night, three day stay in a TWO bedroom condo at one of their Panama City Beach resorts.  As if that wasn’t enough, this vacation is on the Panama City Beach Seafood Wine and Music Festival weekend and is accompanied by 5 three day tickets to the festival, so you can come with your whole family, enjoy the festival all weekend and go home with memories that will last a lifetime.  And, in the spirit of a late night infomercial – wait, there’s more!  Also included, the winner will get a $50 gift certificate to Buffalo Wild Wings.

I emphasized “two bedroom” above simply because, most vacation giveaways are only for one bedroom condos.  This vacation giveaway was purely designed for a family of FIVE to come down to the beach, enjoy the Panama City Beach Seafood Wine and Music Festival, eat at Buffalo Wild Wings and have a blast at the beach.

So, Sterling Resorts is giving away:

• A two night, three day stay in a two bedroom condo in one of their Panama City Beach resorts
• 5 three day tickets to the Panama City Beach Seafood Wine and Music Festival
• $50 gift certificate to Buffalo Wild Wings

Entering is super easy.  All you have to do is:

• Go to their Facebook page
• Click the “Like” button (if you haven’t already!)
• Then click the Sweepstakes tab along the top
• Fill out the quick entry form
• The sweepstakes ENDS on Thursday September 30th, so hurry!

That’s right, you read correctly, all you have to do is answer three questions (multiple choice – no wrong answers) and you have a chance to win $1,000 worth of stuff.  We are putting something big together, and we need you to tell us your favorite seafood place, burger and sandwich place and your favorite resort or condo. The survey won’t take you more than 4 minutes.

For taking the time to answer these quick questions, you’ll have a chance to win:

• A 2 night, 2 bedroom FREE vacation at Laketown Wharf in Panama City Beach.
• 2 seats in Mike’s cooking class at Liza’s Kitchen (gourmet food, paired with perfect wine, so delish)
• 4 tickets to the PCB Seafood Wine and Music Fest (Lynyrd Skynyrd is playing!!!)
• Another set of 4 tickets to the PCB Seafood Wine and Music Fest

So, what are we up to, you ask?  I can’t tell you, it’s top secret.  But, you’re gonna love it.  You can tell we are all about knowing what you think is best in Panama City Beach with these ultra sweet prizes we’re putting up for you to win for taking the survey.

There are a total of three survey questions, each one has all the options we could find for that category, listed in alphabetical order.  If you have trouble picking just one, in each category, you can pick up to three of your favs.  If some how we missed your favorite, just list it in the “other” field.

Here is how it’s going to all work.

We’re halfway through the summer season in Panama City Beach, but we still have months of warm weather and plenty of time to enjoy Miracle Strip @ Pier Park.

You may remember a few months back, when Teddy and Jenny Meeks finally brought their vision to fruition by opening the much appraised and anticipated Miracle Strip @ Pier Park.  It all started with the original Carousel they purchased, restored and opened in Pier Park early 2009.  People came from all around to relive childhood memories of their carousel adventures of yesteryear.

Today, three original rides from Miracle Strip and an exact replica of the ferris wheel entertain thousands every week and light up the summer nights at Pier Park.  Beautifully landscaped and adorned with a cheerful staff, Miracle Strip @ Pier Park is a really fun place to hang with your kids.

Here’s what we’re gonna do. We are giving away one Annual Pass to Miracle Strip @ Pier Park.  This comes with a buddy pass, meaning that if you win it,  you can take your kiddo on a ride and not have to send him/her alone.

All you have to do to enter for a chance to win is post a comment below telling us about what you are looking forward to about going to Miracle Strip @ Pier Park.
