Do It For The Motherland

Denmark has a a problem. The country's birthrate is at a 27 year low. One Danish company, Spies, is asking its countrymen to go on vacation for the future of Denmark.


Do It For Denmark is a campaign encouraging vacations for procreation. According to the website, "Danes have 46% more sex on city holidays," and more sex = more chances for babies.


Spies is always offering a contest, as well. Book a trip with Spies, get pregnant of the trip and have the chance to win prices including diapers for 3 years, baby equipment and a family vacation.


Would I participate in this contest? Probably not. However, if you are trying to get pregnant anyway, this might be the motivation to do it.

Even odder, Spies has a tool, on the website, to determine when to take your vacation based on your the females ovulation schedule.


Weird. Absolutely Weird....

This post has nothing to do with points or miles. However, its a post about saving money. Any money saved somewhere else is more money for travel.


To play, go here. You can play daily until March 30th, but can only win 1 prize.


It takes only a few minutes to play. I won a $10 gift certificate and they sent me a 20% off coupon. Not to shabby for a contest.

Best of Luck!
