This is a great vacation, the only thing is the travel dates may be a bit restrictive for some travelers and there are no prize substitutions.

Hotels.com is holding a photo contest that has a grand prize of a vacation for life.  Contestants submit a photo that is supposed to show why they need a vacation.  Web site visitors vote on the photos.  The grand prize winner gets a $102,250 toward a lifetime of vacations.   Those that vote and do not enter a picture are also entered for a daily drawing to receive a small handheld camcorder.  

That is seriously a great prize.  I would probably use some for a vacation, pay bills, and then save whatever is left over.  This is of course after paying the tax on the prize money.
