Win a Flip Video Camera!

Random.org has chosen a winner for the Flip Video Camera: Elisa from California.  Thanks to all my readers for entering.....More giveaways coming up!

Lunchables TourOscar Mayer Lunchables Lunch Combinations is doing a "Lunch Your Tummy Right Tour" this summer. Kids are different and have different interests when it comes to sports. But, most of all, they need some encouragement to participate in sports and get on the road to a healthy, active life. The Tour is heading cross country with stops in many cities. Their aim is to inspire kids to achieve success. Visit Lunchables to see the full tour schedule, see how your kids can enter to win a week at Camp Woodward and play Lunchables games.

As part of the Tour, kids will also be encouraged to get active by climbing a giant inflatable wall and playing a series of educational games on an interactive bus. “The Lunchables team believes that a well-lunched tummy is the key to success,” said Darin Dugan, Senior Director of Marketing, Lunchables. “The Lunchables Lunch Your Tummy Right Tour is the perfect outlet to help kids discover and enhance their talents.”

Oscar Mayer Lunchables is promoting The "Lunch Your Tummy Right Tour" with Flip Video. They sent me a Flip to try out. I love it! I'm hooked! It is so easy to use...I didn't even have a chance to read the directions and I was able to use it no problem. It's small, light and easy to tuck into my bag and pull out in a second. All those times when you wish you could catch something on video? Now you can. And the quality is amazing. The best part is that it's all digital. You record on the Flip and then you can download to your computer. This Flip Video Ultra records 120 minutes. No tapes or disks to deal with! With my life spinning out of control at times with two toddlers, the is exactly what I need. I was able to take it to Chip's last day of preschool and get some really cute clips with his classmates and teachers. Then you just slide out the USB connection on the side of the Flip and plug directly into the USB port on your computer. How awesome is that? FlipVideo

It gets better....The nice people at Oscar Mayer Lunchables have given me a Flip Ultra to giveaway to one of my readers! With a MSRP of $149.99, The Flip is an excellent way to capture your summer memories. Here is how you enter: Contest period runs from Wednesday, July 1, 2009 at midnight (Pacific) until Wednesday, July 8, 2009 at midnight (Pacific). Enter by leaving a comment, any comment and leave your e-mail address. If you don't leave your e-mail address, I cannot contact you if you win and your entry will be disqualified. One entry per person. Winner must provide a US mailing address. At the end of the contest period, I will utilize Random.org to randomly choose a winner. Winner will be announced the business day following the end of the contest period. Winner has 72 hours to respond to my e-mail. If winner does not respond within 72 hours, The Flip will go to the second place winner as decided by Random.org. Good luck!

  3. I just bought my dad one for Father's Day hoping that he'd be like "what is this thingamabob?" and not use it and therefore letting it land back into my hands. Unfortunately, he LOVES it and takes it everywhere he goes, so, well, I still need one! Enter me, please!

    P.S. Hi Liz! I met you at the Nintendo E3 party.

  29. I have heard so much about The Flip that I really want to try one out! If I win, I will try it out and then I will decide whether I will selfishly keep it for myself or let my mother have it as she has never found a video camera she has felt comfortable with before, but I suspect she could handle a Flip.
