‘No Getaround Booth Would be Complete Without Our Prize Wheel.’
We couldn’t have said it better.
Getaround took the Mini Prize Wheel for a spin (pun intended) at the Sunday Streets and Mission Community Market in San Francisco.
Getaround offers a seamless, peer-to-peer carsharing experience using smartphone technology to empower people everywhere to share vehicles and utilize smarter transportation options.
For as little as $3 an hour, users can conveniently rent cars from people nearby by the hour, day, or week and save hundreds of dollars on car payments, auto insurance, and maintenance.
Getaround offered $25 rental credit, free rentals and one hour in the Tesla.
Kids love the prize wheel. This spunky little redhead convinced her grandpa to join Getaround so he could take her and her sister for a spin in the Tesla, which we had on display next to our booth.

US Weekly Heats Up the Summer with the Prize Wheel
US Weekly’s Hot Bodies event was already using the Prize Wheel to heat up the summer in 2009.
The event, held poolside at Tao Beach in Las Vegas, had Mel B (Spice Girls) serving as host and a slew of sponsors.
According to BizBash,
Massage therapists were on hand for head, neck, and back massages, and water-filled misters from sponsor Air Optix Aqua allowed guests to cool off with a sprtiz. Models wearing summer outfits from Old Navy encouraged guests to spin a prize wheel for a chance to win purple Us Weekly beach towels, Old Navy flip flops, Sonic gift cards, and tickets for “Peepshow.” A branded Skinny Cow ice cream cart offered frozen treats on the hot day in the desert. And a hosted bar offered MGD 64 beer—a beer marketed for its low calorie content.

The Prize Wheel Helps Teach Kids About Money
CP Federal Credit Union uses a variety of tools, including the Prize Wheel, to teach students about money. Play coins are given to spinners who must count the correct amount of change in order to win a prize.
Kelly Hatler, a credit union development educator and federal financial-education specialist for the credit union said,
It’s very important to start early and start young. Our savings programs don’t revolve around a dollar amount. What we want is to establish the habit of saving.
