Father’s Day Week of Giveaways: The Flip!

June 14, 2010

Happy, happy Father’s Day Week of Giveaways to you!!

Honestly, this is like Christmas for me to be able to give all this fun stuff away…

And I’m sure you secretly love it too.

So to start things off with a bang, I’d like you to meet the Flip UltraHD 2Hour (2nd Generation):

Isn’t she purdy??

Several years ago we sold our big video camera because we just never had it around, or never had the batteries charged, or we couldn’t get it all set up by the time the real action occurred.

We opted instead for this little beauty (except ours is 1Hour – so last generation) and we never looked back…

Here’s what I love:

1. It is sooo light and easy to toss in a purse, bag, pocket.

2. Takes 2 AA batteries – so no more chargers – and inexplicably, they last a really long time.

3. Hello easy!  You turn it on, push the red button (idiot-proof!) and you’re in business.

I’ve also been really impressed with the zoom.  I haven’t missed my big elephant of a video camera once.

Then you plug it in to your USB port, and download.  From there, you can easily upload to YouTube, Facebook, or any other place you view videos.

Giveaway

You can win one Flip UltraHD 2Hour (2nd Generation)  just by leaving a comment by Tuesday, June 22nd and I’ll choose the winner using Random.org on Wednesday, the 23rd.

You can even choose your color: white or black.

Here’s how to gain extra entries:

  1. Do you subscribe by email or RSS to The Good Stuff Guide? I love my subscribers, so you get an extra entry. Wahoo!
  2. Email 5 of your friends about The Good Stuff Guide and tell them what a rockin’ website this is.  We’d love to have them join us!
  3. Tweet about this Father’s Day Week of Giveaways (Just cut and paste): It’s a whole week of #Giveaway for Father’s Day at The Good Stuff Guide @GoodStuffGuide http://su.pr/2TJPO2
  4. Share the news of this giveaway on your Facebook status (Just cut and paste): It’s a whole week of Giveaways for Father’s Day @The Good Stuff Guide http://su.pr/2TJPO2
  5. Become a Facebook fan of The Good Stuff Guide and receive the latest news and your chance at additional giveaways.

(Feel free to do them all – that’s a total of 6 entries!)

Good luck!

And many thanks to Flip Video for this awesome giveaway!

    What hole do I live in that I’ve never even heard of these?!! Joe’s getting a Dewalt radio that charges the batter packs for his drill for Father’s Day- but this would have been a great idea!

    I have always looked at the Flip, but haven’t taken the plunge yet. Since I’m the camera person in the family – truthfully, I’m the one that would be using it. However, the gift of all of the videos of our son, as he (and my husband) grow older is a priceless gift. Thanks for organizing this GREAT give away.
