Apparently, this isn't new, but I don't remember seeing anything about it
on LUGNET before.
In the Parent's section at www.lego.com, there's a sweepstakes running from
now until the end of April.
The sweepstakes is only open to US residents.
The price of entry is filling out a basic market-research, revealing your
name, your kids' information, basic LEGO ownership and buying habits (very
basic--any of us have 10x the activity they're asking for), and income
range. And there are checkboxes to give LEGO the right to contact you.
Unfortunately, there's no checkbox *requiring* LEGO to contact you.
The grand prize is $2,000 worth of LEGO toys. There are also 50 second
prizes, each one is a $50 gift certificate for S@H.
