You've been waiting all week, we know. But we're pleased to announce the winner of our Peeps in Places Photo Challenge! Congratulations to Charlotte Johnson of North Hollywood, California, whose iconic peep pic might just have outdone the Hollywood sign itself. To check out the entire gallery of winners, click here.

Thanks to all those of you who participated, and be sure to pack your Peeps with you as you travel this year, as our contest will be back in 2010.

Peeps in Places Challenge Now Extended!

We've been so overwhelmed with the responses from our first "Peeps in Places" photo challenge that we've decided to extend the deadline through this Monday, April 13 to ensure that all the contestants interested in participating can get their Peeps pics in. And to sweeten the deal - no pun intended - the good folks at Just Born, the Peeps parent company, have offered to provide some sugary prizes for the winners: Our grand prize winner will take home a Lenox China Peeps item, as well as a collection of Peeps candy, and our four runners-up will receive a suitcase - or perhaps a sweetcase - filled with items like Peeps luggage tags, plush Peeps, and more candy than you'll find in a typical Easter basket. Don't blame us if you have to make a trip to the dentist afterward.

If you haven't yet submitted your own photos, now's your chance. Take a photo of one or more Peeps in any travel destination, add your photos to our Flickr pool, and then tag them "NGTpeeps." Please limit your entries to three per person. We'll select photos and feature them on our website and the lucky "peeps" will be featured in an online gallery next week. Check out the photos of the prizes after the jump.
