win a $2500 shopping spree with Tyler Florence

If you are a truly a fan of Tyler Florence, now is your chance to win a gourmet shopping spree with Tyler, and a free trip for you and a guest to the gourmet mecca — San Francisco. All you have to do is go the the Macy’s site  and upload a video of you cooking your favorite original recipe–it’s that simple.

macys_keeps_America_cooking.jpgContest Overview:
The “Macy’s Keeps America Cooking” contest invites you to create a cooking video based on an original recipe that demonstrates “What gets you cooking?” Is it a family recipe? The magical people in your life? Or the fresh ingredients at your local market?

Your video should be 2 minutes or less, and, similar to how Tyler ends his video podcasts on the Macy’s site: “From my Mill Valley kitchen to yours, Macy’s keeps it cooking,” be sure your video ends with the line “From my (location) kitchen to yours, Macy’s keeps it cooking!”

Prizes
The Grand Prize Winner of the contest will receive:

  • A trip for two to San Francisco to cook with Tyler
  • A shopping spree with Tyler for new kitchen products using Macy’s gift of a $2,500 gift card
  • A feature spot on their own Macy’s Keeps It Cooking podcast that will show you cooking with your new Macy’s kitchen products
  • Nine runner-up winners will also be selected and will each be awarded with a $1,000 gift card from Macy’s
  • If winners include a mention of what you like about your local Macy’s or macys.com in your video, you will  receive an additional $500.
  • Winners will be selected on or around April 30, 2009.

Good Luck!
