You’ll FLIP over my latest giveaway!

Remember back a few months ago, I told you about our new Flip MinoHD? Thanks to Mom Central, I can now give away another Flip MinoHD to one of you in the “You’ll Flip for the Holidays” giveaway.

Mom Central is asking to whom would you give a Flip and why. I’d say this is the perfect gift for just about anyone — of course, it’s especially good for those of you with wee ones. Face it, it’s a lot of work hauling the camcorder down out of the closet, making sure it’s charged, and getting it out of it’s bag every time you want to shoot some video. By the time you’re ready, the moment has passed. You know I’m not exactly good about putting things back where they belong anyway, but I do always have the Flip close at hand, and it’s easy to just slip it into a drawer in a central location where I can get to it in a flash. Or, erm, just leave it lying out on the cabinet, amongst the camera lenses and other clutter, where at least it’s easy to get to!

Entering is easy; just leave a comment below telling me to whom you would give the Flip this holiday season and why. (Please note, this is not “tell me whom you would flip off this holiday season”. That’s an entirely different blog post!!)

Here’s the fine print:

  1. Sorry, but this giveaway is only open to Canadian residents, age 18 years or older.
  2. To enter, leave a comment on this post telling me who you in your life you would give the Flip to and why. Go ahead, nominate yourself! (I promise I won’t follow up in January to make sure you actually gave it to Uncle Joe.)
  3. Please note that it’s you, the person making the nomination and not your nominee, who is entered into the contest.
  4. You must leave your comment before 12 pm EST on December 31, 2009.
  5. Only one comment entry per person will be counted.
  6. You can enter one additional time by tweeting “Win a Flip MinoHD from @danigirl and @MC_Canada: http://tinyurl.com/y8k2nl7 #Flip4holiday.” IMPORTANT: you must leave a comment linking to your tweet, because there’s more than one blogger using the same hash tag and I need to be able to find your tweet to enter you in the contest!
  7. One winner will be chosen by using the random number generator at random.org, selected from all eligible entries.
  8. You must be willing to share your full name and mailing address with me, and I will pass it along to Mom Central Canada, who will ship the prize directly to the winner.

Good luck, and thanks to Flip and Mom Central Canada for yet another fun giveaway!!

I will give the Flip Video to myself… Why? Simply because our video camera is so bulky that it’s kind of a pain to bring it around when we do homeschool trips or activities.
This little jewel seems to be perfect to grab and go and to put in the purse.

Thanks for the opportunity to win it!

I’d give it to my daughter. Thank you!

I’d give it to my daughter because she doesn’t have one LOL! Thank you!

I’m not going to lie – I’m being selfish but I want this for myself! I figure I can share all the videos I make of our family, so that’s fair isn’t it?

I would give the FLIP ULTRA HD to my husband and daughter because they would be great at helping capture valuable and funny video footage of our family in action! Thanks so much for the chance!

I would be selfish and make this a gift for me. I have a young son and it would be great to be able to get those special moments as more than just a picture on a camera. This is something I have always really wanted but as a single parent have never been able to afford.

What can I say, I would want it for myself. It would be so perfect to capture my three kids on video!

Mary @ Parenthood December 30, 2009 at 12:48 pm

I’d give it to my husband so that he’ll stop stealing the camera…

Sara in Montréal December 30, 2009 at 6:06 pm

I’ll give it to my husband (so, you know, it stays in the family) so he can film the bigger one and littler coming along in a couple of month. The point and shot lost the ‘film’ ability a looong time ago and the reflex, well is not that kind of reflex. So we really need it, as an extending family with relatives all over the globe.

Barb December 30, 2009 at 10:09 pm

I’d give it to Jo!
She loves any cameras!!

Pat B December 31, 2009 at 1:22 pm

I would love to give this to my daughter. She asked for one for Christmas to record her dance troupe, but did not receive one. This would make an awesome start to the New Year for her!
