Looking for some buck-ees? (Yes, that was an admittedly bad pun) Then you should consider entering this contest!

Maybe I was living under a rock but I hadn’t heard about Buc-ee’s until this year.

It’s a huge chain of stores and gas stations, known for its massive store with goodies like beaver nuggets (bags of puffed corn), a wall of jerky, brisket sandwiches, fudge, and so much more.

What if I told you that you could win money for visiting their many locations?

I bet my colleagues, Jen Ursillo and Eric Potts, would have liked to know about this promotion before they travelled to a Buc-ee's in South Carolina and back in under 24 hours (though according to Jen, the trip was definitely worth it).

You can read her full recap of the road trip here, maybe it'll convince you to consider applying for this contest.
