Some kickin' prizes this week for faithful readers of the

Daily News.

You might win a Gibson Les Paul guitar, a Nintendo Wii, or be treated like a VIP at the Philadelphia Sports Fans Choice Awards.

Here are the details:

To promote the holiday film "Alvin and the Chipmunks," the Daily News and Twentieth Century Fox are giving away a Nintendo Wii along with the Chipmunks video game to play on it. Our grand-prize winner also gets a basket of sweet treats from Goodie Good Gumdrops of Swedesboro, N.J.

The first prize in our "Alvin" contest is an iPod Nano and a limited-edition movie sweatshirt. Ten more winners get "Alvin" prize packs and family four-packs to an advance screening of the movie. "Alvin" opens Dec. 14.

In a contest sure to appeal to the rabid Philly sports fan (is there any other kind?), two readers will win all-access passes to attend this year's Sports Fans Choice Awards, a gala dinner event with local sports luminaries and legends on Dec. 17.

And finally, to promote the Fox Searchlight film "Juno," we're giving away a Gibson Les Paul Standard guitar, a rock 'n' roll icon. Ten more winners will get "Juno" soundtracks and passes to a special screening of the film, which opens in select theaters on Dec. 14.
