My Itchy Travel Feet | The Baby Boomer's Guide To Travel

Product Review: The Seattle TourSaver

by on 2009/05/05

STS-09-Cover-450p-1This pocket-sized coupon book offers 136 coupons for entertainment bargains in Seattle. Any way you calculate the savings, baby boomer travelers are getting a bargain for $79.95. Flipping through the pages, I noticed two-for-ones to the Seattle Aquarium, Seattle Lake Cruises with Argosy Cruises or a Seattle Raft and Kayak Tour. The Seattle TourSaver includes lodging coupons at Quality Inn and Suites next to the Space Needle, Homewood Suites in downtown Seattle and more. Plus, coupon savings extend to the San Juan Islands and Victoria.

I’m not the only one impressed with this coupon book. Seattle Magazine thinks so too. At Tripso, Anita Potter-Durham includes The Seattle TourSaver in her “Cruise-onomics: 12 money-saving tips,” for vacationers cruising into Seattle.

Would you like to win a copy of The Seattle TourSaver, 2009 edition? To celebrate My Itchy Travel Feet’s first birthday, the publishers have kindly given me a copy to give away.

You might be the lucky one saving hundreds of dollars on a visit to Seattle. Contest ends on Tuesday, May 12, 2009 at 11:00 p.m. Arizona Mountain Standard Time. Winner will be announced on Wednesday, May 13, 2009. Please see general contest rules.

UPDATE: May 13, 2009. This contest has expired. As soon as the winner acknowledges receipt of my email, I’ll make the announcement.

I’d love to win this coupon book! I’m a frequent visitor to the Seattle area who can’t wait to move there. My son’s a resident, but I’m always the one planning outings. The coupon book would give me ideas AND save me money, so I could drag my son away from his computer even more, and maybe he’d meet a nice girl somewhere, and I could finally get some grandbabies!

Perhaps my expectations are a bit too high… But I’d still love the book!

My family and I will be leaving out of Seattle, on a cruise to Alaska. Before we set sail, we’d like to spend a couple of days in one of the most photographed cities of the world. We will be traveling with two kids, so we need entertainment for them, as well as hotel accommodations, etc. This would help out a lot after the price we must pay for the cruise, and also give us great ideas of what to see and do.

This would certainly motivate us to take the train up there more often! As much as we’d love to explore Seattle more, the budget is tight these days!

Thanks for the giveaway!

I am right across the water in Bremerton, and I love taking the Ferry over to Seattle. AND, I am an AVID coupon user! So this book would get a LOT of use from me!

I just interview for a job in Seattle (live in Portland) and the Seattle Toursaver would be a great and useful item to have once I move there.

My wife and I both grew up in the Northwest. She in Seattle and I in Oregon. We moved to Arizona 7 years ago for employment reasons. Now we are planning to return to our home of Seattle. But, first we are planning a vaction the 1st part of August. 2009 and find the Seattle Tour Saver a great addtition to our trip. I would hope there would be a Seatlle Mariners Baseball coupon in the book and we would love see the city’s skyline
from Elliot Bay. Yes, the Seattle Tour Saver would be a wonderful addition to our trip.

My son and his family live right by Seattle and I plan on visiting them this summer. Would love to win the book to save some cash. These trips, unfortunately, are far and few between because we live on the east coast and funds aren’t always there.

I would love to win this! My step children live in England –I’m in Portland, Oregon–but there aren’t direct flights to Portland–so they always fly in & out of Seattle—and this summer they are all flying in at different times —so we will be spending lots of time in Seattle this summer. Thanks for the chance to win!
