Do you love New York City?

Do you love free stuff?

Well, keep reading…

Next week, the Matador team will be publishing a guide to visiting NYC on the cheap on the Trips blog and a review of the top 10 NYC guidebooks on the Gear blog.

Consistent with the NYC theme, we’ll also be giving away three copies of my favorite NYC guidebook: Not for Tourists Guide to New York City.

Here’s the deal:

1. Log in to your Matador account between today and September 30. (If you don’t have one yet, sign up for free!)

2. Blog about your most memorable NYC experience. (500-800 word limit)

3. On October 1, the Matador team will review all NYC-themed blogs written between today and September 30. We’ll choose our three favorite blogs and announce the winners here on Pulse. The very best entry will be published on the Matador Nights blog, and all three winners will receive a copy of the NFT Guide to NYC.
