How can Carolina Traveler give away tickets and a magazine subscription for just 87 cents a week?
Here's how we do it: Most of the tickets come from events, shows and attractions that want to advertise to our readers. Sometimes they pay for their advertising with tickets, which we give to you!
So there's no catch and no strings attached. Just enjoy yourself.
