Giveaway – $100 Subway Gift Card!

May is National Physical Fitness and Sports Month, and SUBWAY® restaurants want to help kids  stay fit. Subway and Virginia Mason have teamed up and created a special program called Minute to Fitness in the Seattle area. As part of the the Minute To Fitness presentation, SUBWAY® restaurants in and around the Seattle-Tacoma area are providing cash cards to local school kids, to remind them to eat healthy and stay physically fit.

Subway wants to give one Thrifty NW Mom reader a $100 Subway gift card to help your family eat healthier on the go this summer! Subway recently provided Thrifty NW Mom 20 – $5 gift cards to giveaway at the National Moms Night Out event, and we will be announcing those winners shortly, so stay tuned for that. That is alot of chance to win some free money to eat at Subway this summer.

My family just ate at Subway last night after a day at the lake. There were so many $5 Footlong choices, that we all found something we loved. When you look at the calorie and fat difference (printed nicely on their napkins), compared to fast food burger joints – I felt great about what I fed my family too – and mom got the night off of cooking. Plus it was just plain delicious!

This giveaway will end on Sunday, 5/20, at 9pm pst.

The winners will be drawn using “And the Winner Is” plugin and announced on the blog.  I will also email the winners. The winners will have 48 hours to contact me, otherwise a new winner will be drawn. US residents only & you must be 18 yrs or older to enter the giveaway. This giveaway is not affiliated with Facebook in any way.

  3. We stay active by playing outside together. Four kids keep this mommy and daddy very active indeed!

  4. I just rejoined the gym so I plan on taking my kids there after work during the summer to get a little exercise in together. Thank you.

  5. Chasing my toddler boy keeps me pretty active. Not to mention, I’m getting ready for baby #2 this July. But what we really love doing as a family (especially with a young child) is simply going to the park!!! For my own sanity, I have some workout DVDs I do. Being a stay-at-home mom kind of limits my options for leaving the house without the boy. Did I mention cleaning?? haha!! Yeah, always picking up the clutter after my little tornado.

  6. We love to go dirtbike riding!! That is pretty much what are summer consists of and swimming of course! But the kiddos love their dirtbikes ;) and we eat lots of fruit lol!!

  7. (Is this where we are supposed to leave our comment?) I plan to help our family stay active and healthy by getting out of the house in the sunshine daily for a walk with my two little girls in the jogging stroller. :)

  8. My family and I always go for walks together almost everyday. My son will either ride his scooter or trike along while I’m wearing my 8 month old baby.

  9. We like to take walks, go to the park, and go to Six Flags–LOTS of walking there! ;)

  13. It is so easy to keep my family active in the summer. As soon as the weather gets nice we are outside gardening, jumping on the trampoline, playing in the pool or sprinkler and riding our bikes. Most of the time the kids don’t think of it as exercise,,,just summer/spring fun! That is by far the best thing about living in washington!
