Give Away a Cottage, Build a Castle - Essay 101 - $101 Wins a New Home in Hawaii, Suitable for Living in or Use as a Vacation Rental
Creative solution to the poor real estate market - Hawaii couple built a custom home that hasn't sold yet, so they created "Essay 101" - a skills contest where the entrant writes a 101 word essay and pays an entry fee of $101. 3 prizes are offered: the custom-built, never lived in home is the Grand Prize, plus 2 cash prizes. The couple will also give $30,000 to their local schools on successful completion of the contest. It's a win-win for everyone. - December 09, 2008
