I was interested until I saw the price. $1000 wouldn't have been too bad, but yeah. Way out of my price range even if I had the money.

I can't read what the grand prize is, looks like some vacation, but some of these contests make me appreciate the second prizes more than the first. That's usually because you hear horror stories about how god awful the grand prize tends to actually be. I remember a magazine, I think it was Nintendo Power, ran a contest in which the grand prize was a chance to meet Arnold Schwarzenegger. Apparently the winner was jerked around for about a year and finally got a meeting that involved little more than a 3 second handshake. I don't remember what the second prize was but it must have been better than that.

Wow that's nice.

$250,000 though? This is either a joke or just someone hoping to show it off.

Nah, the guy probably doesn't want to get rid of it "but if somebody were crazy enough to give me...."
