Take this Pittsburgh Quiz & You Could Win A Month of Free Rent

Pittsburgh quiz

I received an email from the folks at ABODO, a website that can be used to help you find your next apartment. Adobo has a contest running right now that is worth a few minutes of your time. Take their quick Pittsburgh quiz and if you get all 6 questions correct you will be entered to win a month of free rent from ABODO. I confirmed with the ADOBO team, you don’t have to have rented your apartment from ABODO to be eligible to win. You just have to have a lease and be a Pennsylvania resident. If your name is selected, you ABODO will pay one month of your rent up to $1500.

I know this sounds a little too good to be true, but I have reached out to the ABODO team and they have promptly answered all of my questions. I also think this is a pretty good 6 question trivia for Pittsburgh. Some easy questions and some challenging questions, too.

I also wanted to share this because while ABODO looks like it might be another Silicon Valley startup, the company was founded in 2012 and is still located in Milwaukee with a focus on Midwestern cities.

Win a month of free rent

  • Have a lease in Pennsylvania (your spouse cannot be your landlord)
  • Be a resident of the state of Pennsylvania.
  • Correctly answer all 6 Pittsburgh trivia questions here.
  • Enter by 8am CDT on September 4, 2017.

I used ScoreBig to purchase tickets for the Pirates game on July 4th – I was able to get 6 tickets in the reserved bleachers for $9 a ticket, that was half off the price at Pirates.com.

The important sounding fine print/disclosure – this giveaway is sponsored by ScoreBig.

Last year, I spent a good amount of time on the phone talking with the super nice and helpful ScoreBig rep – (Phil even offered to help me get tickets for a baseball game when I was in CA last week).  I have used ScoreBig to purchase tickets for Pirates games.  I am a huge fan of priceline, and I thought this would be a great way to save on tickets for baseball and football.  I have been 100% impressed with ScoreBig and the people that work there.  If you would like to register for ScoreBig with out using the IheartPGH link just go to ScoreBig.com and sign up.

So, baseball is kind of a big deal right now – and you might actually have a hard time getting baseball tickets.  I have two things that can help with that.

Save Big on Sports and Concert Tickets
