ACX has given me 5 free coupons to help promote my audiobook. I honestly have no idea the best way to use them as a promotion.
I have given one away to someone who donated a ton of $ to fund the creation of the 2nd books cover art. That leaves me 4 to give away. I'll give one to the person who comes up with the best idea (in my judgment) on how to use the remainder as a promotion. Joke ideas, while funny, won't count as an entry...it has to be something workable.
Contest starts now, and ends 5pm EST Friday.

Have a contest to find out the best way to use the free coupons to promote your book?

Assuming you have a Twitter or Facebook page for you the author (as opposed to you the dude), you could put them up as a comment/response giveaway. Perhaps something simple, like "You just discovered that you can use magic. Who would you tell first?" Don't bother with judging - just give it to the first x responses.

You want to use them to increase sales of the book. Personally I'd give them to youth literature bloggers with large audiences.
It's going to be hard for you to hold any sort of contest that would attract enough attention that you'd significantly increase sales, unless you worked with someone that has an existing audience.
Another option is to send copies to webcomic artists that write reviews and blogs. Large audiences that ar very similar to your own.
Give two to the blogger/webcomic. One for them to review, and one for them to give away. That way you can almost guarantee they'll post about it, as it also increases their audience and cements their relationship with their fans.
