To count
Guess how many licks it takes the average person to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop at tootsie.com (under “promotions”) and you could win $50,000 or 27 pounds of Tootsie candy.
To play
If you need an excuse to spend time in front of the TV, subscribe before Aug. 17 to Comcast’s Preferred Plus or Premier Triple Play package and you’ll get a free Nintendo Wii.
To wear
Submit pictures of you wearing your worst fitting top or jacket to missphit.com and you could win $200 worth of Missphit clothing, designed for plus-size women. Some winners also will have the chance to model Missphit clothing in L.A.
Ski the lake
Cool off by riding along Lake Michigan on a Jet Ski from Chicago Jet Ski Rental (200 W. Montrose Harbor Drive). The Jet Skis are available for $125 an hour, $350 for a half-day or $500 for a day.
