Along with the launch of our new tabloid, the Abbotsford News is unveiling a series of contests and promotions sure to please readers of all ages.

How does the opportunity to win a state-of-the art netbook sound?

This netbook redefines mobile connectivity. It is jam-packed with fun and powerful computing features and yet it can weigh as little as 2.2 pounds. Aimed at business professionals, students and world travellers, it offers a choice of operating systems, wireless connectivity, Internet access and the storage space needed for digital photos. It’s time to simplify your life.

To enter our “Wanna Netbook” contest, simply tell us the name of the Harry Potter blockbuster movie due to be released to theatres this month. Email your answers to: contests@abbynews.com.

It’s back – Abbotsford’s acclaimed reader promotion Search For Gold returns starting next week.

Readers will once again be invited to go on a quest for gold treasure cards hidden within the community.

Treasure clues will be published in The News along with special GPS and video clues online.

Prizes are valued at over $8,000, including $5,000 diamond earrings sponsored by Lee’s Fine Jewellery. Collect your clues and get ready to begin your search.

Airplane fanatics will want to buckle up and prepare for takeoff as the News offers its readers a chance to win a “Thrill of a Lifetime.”

You could be a passenger in a Christian-Eagle Bi-Plane or Interstate Cadet.

Weather dependent, the winner will either circle above Abbotsford on the Thursday prior to the Abbotsford Airshow, or enjoy a ride directly after the show wraps up.

If you want a chance to win, look for entry coupons in The News starting next week.
