Father's Day: A Giveaway!
I have a great giveaway for you today! It's just in time for Father's Day.
BestBuy is offering a REDI Pre-loaded MP3 Player to one lucky winner! The REDI Pre-loaded MP3 player boasts these features:
- Each player features more than three hours of preloaded music
- Choose from the following preloaded playlist categories: Golden Classics, R&B Soul Collection, Ultimate Rock and Roll or Ultimate Workout.
- MP3 player includes an FM tuner for additional access to entertainment
- Boasts DRM10 compatibility to allow the storage of downloaded content from various music subscription sites
- Keep the music going with a AAA battery
- Available in Best Buy stores now
- Price: $39.99
Although the REDI Pre-loaded MP3 Player comes with 3 hours of pre-loaded music, it is also compatible with iTunes and Rhapsody.
I know my husband would love to have one of these for his nightly treks to the gym. I think it would be handy to have both the MP3 capability and the FM tuner. At my gym, you can tune your FM radio to a certain station and listen to the TV instead of reading the dialog at the bottom of the screen. If there wasn't anything he wanted to watch, he could always just switch to the MP3 mode.
Here are the hoops:
- The giveaway will run from today until June 7. That will give BestBuy time to ship the REDI Pre-loaded MP3 player to you in time to present it to your special guy for Father's Day.
- Please tell me which playlist your think your guy will most like to have pre-loaded and why.
- You don't have to be a blogger to play, but you do need to submit a valid e-mail address. If I can't contact you, you can't win.
- You must have a US mailing address.
- I will choose a random winner. Then I will e-mail you and cc the BestBuy rep. You will have four days to get in touch with her and give her your shipping information. If she doesn't hear from you in four days, you forfeit your prize and I'll choose a new winner. Be sure to check your spam folders!
That's it! Good luck!













I'd l i k e to say the Ultimate Work Out pre-load, but that would kinda be like him giving me a lawnmower, lol.
For an evening of nice ambient music, I could see him diggin' the Golden Classics.
Some of those pictures on the descriptions cracked me up! They looked like throw-backs, lol :).

I think my husband would like the Golden Classics too - he's a pianist and violinist, and he loves classical music.

Ultimate Rock would make my hubby happy. He loves to hear that great lead in drum beat. Thanks for the great giveaway!!

My husband would love this - however, I'm not so sure he'd like any of the music choices, as he's sort of what I like to call, "granola". He's a talk radio fan...but if it comes with preloaded music, I'd take classical - listening to barochial music while reading helps you retain what you read...did you know that?

I think the Ultimate Workout one would be great for my hubby - he likes really upbeat music for driving or puttering.

I think hubs would dig the Rocker selection. I like that it's Itunes capable. Is it wrong that I will probably be using this primarily for myelf? Yeah I didn't think so.

I think I'd have to go with the Ultimate Workout for my man... we're trying to get back to our half-marathoning days!
Posted by: Emily | June 03, 2008 at 10:21 AM
Ultimate workout for sure. He NEEDS it. Trust me.
And then I can use it, too. I NEED it. Trust me.
Just as much as I NEEDED the Gazelle, and the stationary bike, and the .....

I say Ultimate Workout... that way I can steal it for when I convince myself that getting off the couch would be a good thing this summer!
Posted by: Shalee | June 03, 2008 at 10:39 AM
It would have to be Ultimate Rock and Roll playlist. I think I will borrow this for myself.
Posted by: Kathie | June 03, 2008 at 11:22 AM
My husband would love the Ultimate Rock and Roll! This would be so great for him.

Happy Tuesday! What a wonderful gift for Father's Day. My husband has been watching his caloric intake and has lost 30 pounds. He still needs to lose more weight. Almost every evening he heads down to our basement and rides our exercise bike! I can hear his music going up here. He would enjoy the "Rock and
Roll" preloaded. That is what I hear blasting from the basement. Please enter me in your drawing. I really appreciate it! Thanks,Cindi
