Today American Express launched a year-long campaign including giveaways to 50 lucky winners and their guests “Epic Everyday Getaway” to NYC with not-so-everyday experiences, including performances and celebrity appearances. Amex is aiming to strongly promote their newest EveryDay credit card that offers the first American Express no annual fee card earning valuable Membership Reward points.

The All-New American Express EveryDay Card
The campaign kicks off with a Mother’s Day “selfie & snapshots” photo contest with an epic prize – a getaway to NYC for 50 winners and their guests (100 total). American Express will continue to recognize and reward consumers for sharing their #EveryDayMoments throughout the year with a series of special, themed contests, sweeps and unique experiences, like a live concert with Maroon 5 streamed nationally on June 20, 2014, and a soon-to-be-announced Father’s Day Sweeps.
“The Amex EveryDay Card is the card designed for every day spending – from trips to the grocery store to a spontaneous afternoon visit to an ice cream shop with the kids,” said Elizabeth Rutledge, EVP, Card Products & Benefits, American Express. “We know all of these everyday moments add up to make life truly rewarding, and we wanted to create a platform for sharing and celebrating them in special ways.”
Submissions will be accepted for the next 20 days, and then 50 winners will be announced in time for Mother’s Day. The Epic Everyday Getaway prize will take place June 18-21, 2014 in NYC. Each of the winners can bring one guest to join the all-star line-up of experiences that includes:
- Rock of Ages Broadway show with cast meet & greet
- VIP concert experience with Maroon 5 (live streamed nationally)
- Makeovers: red carpet looks for the evening from Rent the Runway, “diva” hair blowouts from DryBar
- SoulCycle Indoor Cycling Class inside iconic Grand Central Terminal
- Three-night stay at the InterContinental New York Times Square hotel, located in the heart of the world-famous Broadway Theater district
- Airfare and ground transportation

This ad does not give the rules for entering this contest. There are no deadlines posted, “the next 20 days,” could be anytime, it could be over, for all I know, and there are no outlines as to how and what to do to enter. Please send me that information. I want to enter my mother, who is 74 yeas old, looks phenomenal for her age, and has survived a near-death experience and cancer in the last five years – as well as financial hardship through no fault of her own. In the meantime, she has accomplished more to help other people than anyone I have ever know. How do I enter this contest to win a long-deserved trip for her? (P.S. She is a big, big fan of Maroon Five!) I am using my mom’s email address so she can explain to me what to do to enter.
