Want to win a prize?



Remember when I won a prize from UnCut Video?  A Pure Digital Point & Shoot digital camcorder with 1.4" Color Display?  Click HERE to refresh your memory.  And HERE.  To see information about Pure Digital's Point-and-Shoot Camcorder, click HERE.

It really was a nice little prize, but folks, here's the problem:  I don't have a single use for it.  Except for the one time I took it outside and tried it out, it's still unused.  See, my digital camera takes fine movies, and I'm used to it.

I regret that I threw away the packaging the camcorder came in, but take my word that it's like new.  I have the instruction sheet, slightly chewed on because Sadie got hold of it.  Still quite legible, though.

I want to give all my readers a present.  Unfortunately, I only have one of these to give.  So here's what I'm going to do:  If you think you'd like this little gem, say so in my comment section.  I'll put all the screen names in a hat and Cliff or my grandson will draw.  It's that simple.

Although I hate to do it, I'd better rule out relatives.  It would look pretty rigged if a family member won, right?  Friends and acquaintances, however, are welcome to put their names in the hat.

Winner will, of course, have to send me name and address so I can get the prize to them.

Let's make the deadline August 7.

If nobody wants it, then I guess I'll give it to charity.

I have a camera that takes vidoes. Like you I am pleased with what I have. I hope someone wins that doesn't have either one. This is very nice of you to do this. Helen

What a generous offer! Yes, please put my name in! My current camera (while being a wonderful one) is a DSLR and doesn't offer a video recording feature. I have often thought that there are things I would like to put up in that format that just can't be caught by a still photograph!

Donna,

I enjoy hearing about your family and living on the farm. If I win, I guess that is an added plus. :)

Oh that would be lovely!  Yes, please!  Do put my name in the hat.  I could be filming little videos of my three children, the puppies, the kittens, the mama cat who leaves me presents in my bedroom now, the housework, and me doing veterans calls.... LOL.  Hugs,

Ohh please put me in the hat! I would love to have a camera to make videos with and since I lost my job and we've gone to a single income family that is one of the extras we just don't have room for in the budget. You are so generous!

hey, i like that camera!!! i would love to have one. never owned one in my life, but i have always had an interest in them. i guess i'm like you guys, i have to count my pennies and lived on a very S-T-R-E-T-C-H-E-D income. my husband works very hard for us and our grands that live next door. god keeps us above water. we thank him everyday. so i was just passing through here and run across your MY COUNTRY LIFE and related to you. i also live in the country in the south and just love it. kinda reminds me of days back when the children could play outside till dark, go to bed at night with the only sounds of insects outside our bedroom windows. Living the country life truly helps you to understand how thankful we are for so much. i would never live in the city again. i am a country girl and darn proud to be one. nice to see others out there experiencing the beauty of country living. i also feel like i have gained another friend along the way. God bless to all of your family and have an awesome week. tsbishopville
