Giveaway Carnival Day #3 - Wireless travel mouse (UPDATED with winner)

carnival_button_4

There are still contests going on over Bloggy Giveaways! Don't forget to go over and check out all of the amazing prizes that you can enter to win - there are over 700 of them over there now!!!

This is the last giveaway that I'm having this week. The first contest closed on Tuesday (check the giveaway post to see who won!) and the second just closed a few minutes ago (check the giveaway post to see who won!). Since this is the final giveaway, I'm going to run this contest for two days - it will end at 9:00 am Eastern time on Friday, February 1st.

For today's giveaway, here is the prize:

This is a very gently (barely even) used GE wireless notebook travel mouse. I bought it last fall and then within a few weeks won a wireless keyboard and mouse set that I've used ever since. Rather than have this one just sit around, I decided to offer it to one of you instead. :)

Included are the mouse (it's the smaller, travel-sized kind), USB receiver, vinyl travel pouch and instruction booklet. Again, it's in very good shape since I only used it for a short while, but please be aware that this giveaway is for a USED product.

So here's what you need to do if you'd like to enter:

  1. Leave a comment on this post and tell me what the last computer-related purchase you made was.
  2. Please make sure you leave a valid e-mail address or other way to reach you if you win.
  3. Linking back to this contest page is not required, but you're welcome to if you would like.
  4. One comment only, please - multiple comments will be discarded and not included in the final drawing.
  5. This giveaway is open to U. S. addresses only - sorry!
  6. Comments will be left open until 9:00 am Eastern time on February 1st.
  7. A winner will be drawn by random number generator on February 1st and notified by e-mail. This post will also be updated to state who the winner is.

Good luck! :)

This giveaway is now closed.

The random number generator came up with #47 - which is the comment left by Lomagirl, who said, "The last computer purchase I made? Photo paper to print on. I also have a pretty new printer.." Congratulations! An e-mail has gone out to you, so please check your mailbox and get back to me with your shipping information so I can get the mouse sent out to you.

Thank you to everyone who participated in my giveaways this week - it was a lot of fun!!

  1. We bought a wireless Printer/Scanner/Fax all-in-one at Circuit City when hubby got his Christmas bonus. He bought himself a laptop too and gave me his old one as the home computer (desktop) croaked finally... after 10 years of use! lol It held up well for as much use it got from all of us.


    I would love to win this for my laptop!

    Count me in please.

    Thanks for the giveaway!

    Stop by my place to win a bath set & candles or one of two copies of a book I'm giving away. Don't miss the daily edition of contests galore that I post on my blog.

  2. The last purchase was about several months ago when our monitor went ***blank***. At first, a simple solution would have been to replace the vide card but the tech guy recommended a new flat panel monitor. It did the trick!

  3. In don't know if it counts, but the last purchase we made that comes close to being computer related is the tax software that we use every year to do our taxes. Before that I think the last computer related purchase we made was actually this computer. Course, that was two years ago!

  6. The last computer-related product that I myself purchased was a Nancy Drew game for my daughter and I to play together. My husband is always purchasing something computer-related it seems. He just purchased some kind of battery back-up for my computer, but I have no idea what it is called. I would love to be entered in your drawing.

    The last computer related item I purchased was a 2 gb jump drive for my son to use at school. His backpack had been stolen and he needed to get that replaced pronto. Otherwise, my husband does all the purchasing and fixing. The joke is that I don't have to touch the computers when they are broken, because I sleep witht the LAN manager!

  69. Great giveaway. The last computer-related purchase I imade was a 99-cent retractable USB cable. Greatest invention! We don't keep our printer hooked up to our laptop and it was so cumbersome to figure out what to do with the cables. With this one being retractable, we just keep it plugged in to the printer and it's there when we need it but so discreet! Got it at Dollar Tree!

  84. Last thing for me was speakers for my husbands new computer. I've used it finally, we got it in Sept, and realized how much faster and more it can handle processor-wise than mine and am green with envy. So I (not we, because I know its selfish) have decided that if we do get those rebates from the government this year, we'll pay off the last of our debt, put some in savings and buy me a new computer. And give our four year old mine. Because doesn't every four year old need a computer? Right now he uses mine because he isn't allowed to use his dads. Wait, I must be ranting. I think I was just spoiled growing up in a house with multiple computers and marrying a guy who loved them and now we have 4 we use regularly, and three in the closet. And only three computer users in the house, including the four year old. Ok, no complaints, I guess I could just buy some memory and stop whining. Anyway my sister would love this mouse. THanks for offering.

    ReplyDelete
  85. My last purchase was a digital camera and since it needs a computer to download to...I'm considering it my last computer-related purchase. :)

    Thanks for the fun giveaway.
