Hello everyone and welcome to Giving It Away!
Finally we are getting closer and closer to our grand opening which will begin on Monday November 9th. We won’t be revealing our first giveaway prize just yet, but rest assured it will be sweet!
But since we’ve had such a high amount of people already subscribe we thought it would be a great idea to reward everyone with the chance to earn bonus entry points towards our first giveaway and give you guys a little taste of what this site will be like with a bonus giveaway. Every person that pre-registers for our first giveaway will be entered into a draw for a new 8GB iPod nano with your choice of colour (from what will be available at the time of the draw).
Honestly, where can you win a prize for pre-registering to a giveaway? Let us know if you’ve heard of that before.
So here’s how to pre-register. First, please take a few minutes to read up on how to use this site properly by checking out how to win and our official rules pages. Once you’ve done that come back to this contest page and submit a comment telling us what you would do with a new iPod if you won. By doing this you’ll be entered into our draw for a new 8GB iPod nano and you will also receive a bonus entry into our grand opening giveaway. Yes, it’s that easy!
Want a couple more bonus entries into our grand opening giveaway? Earn one bonus entry by following us on twitter and tweeting this post (include both a link and @givingitaway). Earn another bonus entry by becoming a fan of our facebook group and then drop by and say hello on our wall.
If you do follow us on twitter or join our facebook group don’t forget to tell us in your comment what your twitter and/or facebook user name is so we know who you are and can award you your entry points.
Entry deadline into the draw for a new 8GB iPod nano is Sunday November 8th at 11:59 PM EST.
Note: Only a maximum of three bonus entry points will be awarded for our grand opening giveaway and one entry point into the 8GB iPod nano giveaway per participant.
You must use your first and last name when you comment.
If you follow us on twitter or facebook you do not need to make a second (or third) post telling us that you posted on our wall or tweeted, we monitor both pages and do that work for you! But do make sure you tell us your username(s) once so we know who you are.





















When you subscribe to our newsletter you will receive information on how to earn more bonus points that you won't find anywhere else! So what are you waiting for?

If I won, I’d be able to download even more podcasts (my old iPod is too full!).
November 8, 2009 at 8:06 pm
I recently began working out at a gym and the music sucks! Think bad 70’s, low budget porn music. I would use this to encourage myself to keep hitting the gym.
November 8, 2009 at 7:50 pm
Great site and awesome giveaway!
Thanks!!
November 8, 2009 at 7:14 pm
If I’d won this Ipod, I would give it as a gift to my nephew!

If I won I would give it to my youngest daughter. She is the only one (besides me) who doesn’t have one yet. She’s asked for one this Christmas, but with money so tight this year, I had to tell her not to get her hopes up. What a great surprise it would be if I won and COULD put it under the tree for her. I’m happy for the opportunity – Thank You! I’m NeboBeads on twitter.
November 8, 2009 at 6:26 pm
If I won a iPod nano I would be able to listen to my favorite tunes at work, at school, in the care…well you get the point…I would be able to listen to my fav tunes (oldies and new songs) anywhere! Also, it would help me keep up with my sister. My sister has an iPod nano and keeps telling me how cool it is and how I NEED one. Thanks for the chance!
November 8, 2009 at 6:21 pm
I would be thrilled to win the iPod so that I can store photos — something important to me because I lost most of my family photos in the So. California wildfires in 2003. I am gradually getting copies of some family photos from family and friends, and would love to record them in a way that I could carry them around. I would also like to record meditation music, which would help me deal with the various medical problems I have had since breathing the whirling plume of smoke, ash, dust, etc. generated by the So. California wildfires. Thank you for the contest.
November 8, 2009 at 6:04 pm
I have been wanting one for a long time. My husband and I have started a walking program and it would be great to listen to music.
November 8, 2009 at 6:00 pm
I have so much music on my computer that I would love to download onto an ipod…
November 8, 2009 at 5:57 pm
I would take this everywhere. I had one but I used it so much it finally stopped working, I need a replacement
I tweeted (wildflower00)
November 8, 2009 at 5:56 pm
I would load it will my CD collection (over 100) so that I would have all my music at my fingertips. Awesome.
November 8, 2009 at 5:56 pm
I would download some great new songs. Thanks!
November 8, 2009 at 5:53 pm
If I had a Ipod Nano, I would give it to someone like maybe someone who couldn’t buy one or was less fortunate as a Christmas present. I can already get one so I would give it to someone. Anyway, it’s better to give than recieve.
November 8, 2009 at 5:43 pm
I’d listen it to it all the time!

If I won I would listen to all kinds of great music on the iPod at work.
November 8, 2009 at 2:20 pm
I’m amazed that you’re giving a prize for pre-registration. If I win, it will go to my daughter who really wants one for Christmas but I can’t afford otherwise.
November 8, 2009 at 2:16 pm
nice! If I won the iPod, I could offer it to whichever of my ‘kids’ has done the most to be ‘helpful’ to their poor, over-worked mom…
November 8, 2009 at 1:56 pm
I am a musician so I would use this to play background music in between my sets!
November 8, 2009 at 1:19 pm

Ok this sounds too good to be true but the heck I am giving it a try, crossing my fingers and hoping for the best!!
Having two boys, working full-time, coaching soccer and going back to school having an Ipod to call my own would be my pseudo vacation…..ah.
