If you were in a relationship before the pandemic started, good for you. Congrats on the human contact. If you were single going into the pandemic, my heart truly goes out to you. 2020 and early 2021 were perhaps the worst months in human history for meeting people. It was like a sadistic social experiment engineered to see how single people could survive without bars and Tinder dates. Some of us fared better than others, somehow managing to not only date but actually find a relationship during a pandemic. If that describes you, Sandals Resorts wants to make the rich richer by rewarding you with a free stay at one of its Caribbean resorts.

If You and Your Bae Met During the Pandemic, You Could Win a Trip to the Caribbean
The Sandals Swipe-Stakes is designed for couples who met their current partner on a dating app or social media during the pandemic. Since you probably spent the first part of your relationship wearing masks and with limited date options, Sandals wants to help you make up for lost time.
According to Sandals, couples can “enter to win the dreamy honeymoon phase they never got, courtesy of the experts in love and romance at Sandals. The requirement? Couples must prove that they met online during the pandemic (March 2020 onward) by uploading a screenshot of their dating app match or first social media DM.”
Entries can be made to the Sandals Swipe-Stakes online from August 10 to September 2021, and the winning couple will receive a three-night stay at one of Sandals’ 16 all-inclusive resorts in Jamaica, Antigua, Grenada, St. Lucia, the Bahamas, Barbados, or Curacao.
