Have you seen the new Kia Soul?  I love television and sports but I also like checking out any new vehicles on the market.  I’ve got to say that I think it’s really cute!  It comes in 8 cool colors/4 trim levels and has an industry-leading 10-year/100,000 powertrain warranty!  For more information, visit www.kiasoul.com.

Currently, Kia is running a “Playlist for Your Soul” promotion.  Participants are asked to submit their favorite playlist and whichever playlist receives the most votes wins a chance to go to SXSW (South-by-South-West festival in Austin, Texas!).  I wish I could go!

Why am I telling you about this?  Because I love my readers and want you to have TWO chances to win a great prize.  You can enter the “Playlist for Your Soul” contest and you can also enter to win a $50 gas card right here on Idol Stalker!  With things being so tough in today’s economy, $50 in gas can go a long way!

ENTER TO WIN

For a chance to win the $50 gas card, leave me a comment about what you would do with the extra gas.  There’s no right or wrong answers.  Of course, don’t forget to enter Kia’s “Playlist for Your Soul” for a chance to win a trip to SXSW!

CONTEST ENDS FEBRUARY 10 at 11:59pm PST.
