In a time where bad news is on every channel the one place I can take comfort in are companies that are gearing up for Spring/Summer. Dairy Queen has just announced on their blog:

We would like to treat you to the DQ Sweet Deals menu on your next trip to a DQ store.  It’s on us.

Here is all you have to do:

1. Write a blog post linking here about what deal you’d make with us to try our Sweet Deals for free.
2. Once you’ve done this, email blog@idq.com with a link to your post and your mailing address and we’ll ship you a gift card.

Only the first 250 bloggers to email us with the link to their post and address will win a gift card, so act fast!

While it’s not a car or a cruise it is something that people would actually enjoy during this economic recession. So, the deal I’d make for DQ for this? Hmmm…I would video myself smashing (i.e. eating hardcore) some DQ treats and post it up. While there is no shame in my game when it comes to ‘free stuff’ – this takes the cake.

Now, it’s only open to the first 250 bloggers so I REALLY doubt I’d make the cut but hey, you never know. Try it yourself and let me know if you won.
