We Want To Give You A Free Trip

Dear Friend-of-Digg, There's been a lot of ink spilled about how "great" staycations are, but if we're being honest with ourselves, we can all admit that there's really nothing better than going away for vacation. Call us behind the times, but we do our best relaxing when it's away from our sink full of dirty dishes. And what's better than a vacation? A free vacation. That's right. We've partnered with our friends at Bonobos, Caskers, Cools, Inside Hook, and Oasis Collections to offer one lucky winner and a friend a luxury 5-night trip to Rio De Janeiro! Comes complete with airfare, shopping sprees, chef tastings and a license to spam all your friends with recurring Instagram photos. Because you look really good with a tan. Send us a postcard! (We'll be in the office, jealous as hell.) Enter here for your chance to win. Love, The Digg Team
