Starting January 23, contestants can register at www.EXERGEN.COM and hundreds of radio station websites, to play the Love Bug Temperature Challenge every day for a chance to win one of 100 Exergen TemporalScanner thermometers. 

One lucky entrant will be randomly selected as the grand prize finalist on Valentine’s Day to win a $1,000 Tiffany & Co. gift card.  Additionally, the finalist will be challenged to submit “His and Her” predictions for the Academy Award winners on Sunday, February 26.  If either predicts the winners correctly, the finalist wins the grand prize of ‘His and Her’ cars (valued at $50,000 each) and a trip to Hawaii (valued at $5,000). 

“With Valentine’s Day around the corner and the cold and flu season in full swing, the Love Bug Temperature Challenge is a fun interactive way to engage parents and parents-to-be in a contest with a chance to win great prizes.  We want to offer couples the Exergen TemporalScanner to help fight cold and flu, and a chance for great Valentine’s Day gifts for both, including shopping at Tiffany & Co., a romantic getaway to Hawaii, and his-and-her automobiles,” said Exergen Corporation founder and CEO Dr. Francesco Pompei.
