Peter Greenberg Opens New Travel Contest

New York, NY, August 10, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Travel guru Peter Greenberg recently announced his latest travel contest. Participants can share their tips on how to save money by avoiding fees and find savings while travelling overseas for a chance to win.

The experienced modern traveler is well-versed in avoiding hidden fees and absurd charges when traveling abroad, and now they can share their hard-earned knowledge for a chance to win gift cards from Visa. Just in time for the Olympics, the winning entries will earn Bronze, Silver or Gold place.

While London has spent close to $18 billion to host the Olympics, including renovating stadiums and ensuring attendee safety by hiring security companies, Visa notes that cardholders spent $700 million within the opening week alone. Interestingly, of that $700 million, the majority percentage has been spent on add-on services.

To enter to win, contestants must share their advice on how travelers can save money, whether it’s booking hotels, finding entertainment, or purchasing goods and services overseas. The prizes are as follows:

· Bronze $25 Visa Gift Card

· Silver $50 Visa Gift Card

· Gold $75 Visa Gift Card

To be eligible to win one of these prizes, contestants are asked to add their money-saving tips to the comment section of Peter Greenberg’s blog post here: http://www.petergreenberg.com/2012/08/02/travel-contest-olympic-travel-takeaway-week-1-challenge/.
