Yes, it's that time of year again. Door busters, price breakers, money stabbers. It's all happening again, for real. Of course, we like to get into the holiday spirit here at Engadget, but instead of trampling down unwitting children and old ladies at the mall, we're taking another path -- hanging out and giving away a bunch of gear. So look, you can go out there and brave the cold and the crowds, but we think if you're really smart you'll stay in with us and win something awesome. Tune in tomorrow all day long for the good stuff (AKA a series of giveaways), and don't worry, we'll be rounding up the best deals we find around the internets, so you can do some of that important holiday shopping, too.
WooHoo!!
Engadget has taken place of my father.
He left when I was 6
You sir, win.
I'm assuming no other country love?
It's a bitter sweet victory. I now have the chance to win cool gear...
But alas still have no dad.
He'll be back. He just went to the market to pick up some Pop-Tarts. You'll see.
I know thats probably an outside reference but taken out of context thats actually really depressing.
I found your father on classmates.com. Send me 20 bucks and I'll connect you two immediately!
sorry for the post jacking but i thought everyone should know this, the entire country just got Rick Rolled if they were watching the Macy's day parade today. Go back and look its about 10:50 Pacific time.
I saw that too! (the Rick-rolling)
Back on topic: Engadget will make a good father. Except he talks about gadgets. All. Day. Long. Jeez.
Salaam, your father's property in the amount of 1.5 million dollars US is stuck in bank account here in Nigeria. Please send me your details so that I can send you all the money.
Nigeria Govt Treasury
Son, is that really you?
Im ready
The pop-tart reference is from the simpsons.
Your dad went on to become Santa, be good and he could come back this Xmas
I love you engadget
OH YEAH!!!!!
Time to get my shopping on
Yay
Any chance us people who live outside of the USA are going to be able to take part in these giveaways?
Of course not, we don't exist.
There is no world outside of the US!
Engadget knows you exist but their lawyers and U.S. Contest rules don't.
Well, excluding Iraq and Iran.
Never won anything here..I hope to get lucky by year's end :-)
I keep telling my girlfriend the same thing.
I've never won anything either....
i dont expect to anyway so i wont be too dissapointed
Tigerdirects got some good deals + 1.99 shipping on orders over 100$ and under 50lbs
Chuck Norris will roundhouse kick your face for disrespecting Engadget...
Yay! Now I can win free stuff. :P Though I must say I've never won anything. :(
I have a father but he's an idiot.
OK....on to related topics...
i sooooooo regrett living in the middle east :( :( :( :(!!!!!!!!!!!! :@ :@
It took an engadget giveaway to do that?!
please, oh please, tell me how i can take part in this. i am from dauzenschnowzer, germany.
For real? That, surely is a prize in and of itself.
Ridiculous. Is that in Narnia?
is that a schnitzel in your leiderhosen? or are you just happy to see me?
Dauzenschnowzer, Germany, aka "Spair-oom"
mmm... free stuff.
I hope it's a high powered laser
maybe now my comment will actually work
Can anyone tell me how I can take part in this event?
No, it decreases everyone else's odds of winning.
It's a test of mental strength. Do not use the internet on the 28th and you will reap the rewards.
*reward being Engadget gifts no implied*
LOL!!
wow, no theres someone who really wants to win [=
I need a free Zune 120
I'll be here !
@ Chizzed - wow - really dude.. sorry to hear that..
It's alright man.
But a free pair of Awethumbs would make me feel swell.
alright, that made me lol... really hard.
Cant wait!
Woohoo
I'll do whatever you want to whomever wants it for a Storm.
There I said it, I'm a technoslut.
Would you **** on **** with **** tied to ******* prius ***** fifteen **** boots ***** pink ponies ***** with a blind fold on?
yeah, but without the midget.
i live in Canada, but if i win anything here i will fly to US to get it~ ^.^
Cheers to Engadget!
Hopefully Chizzed (first commenter) wins something nice for the holiday season [=
@ Vishal
Thanks for the good wishes!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Chizzed, what are you talking about? He was referring to me.
Sounds like fun
Give aways are COOL!
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D nothing says happy-day-after-thanksgiving like a giveaway from engadget! =]
I love engadget :)
Engadget is the sex.
Sweet

If you are going to try that you could at least use a non obvious URL...
if you're going to try and do a rick roll with a pie chart (of all things) you could of at least used TinyURL
nothing clever... need gear... thank you engadget.
So... this is what Engadget is like when I'm not at work, and can actually upload an avatar? I feel uncomfortable.
I'll be at work thus I'll be here thus I'll be switching between emulators, ds, and "work" :D
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!~~~~~~~~~~~~
me get stuff.. :P''''
WooHoo I can WIN and Sleep IN!!!
I cannot wait for this. Time to win and win big.
...... ok engadget, hit me with ur best gadgets...... lemme go pik up lady luck b4 we start *runs n turns on imaginary maserati*
OHH! Giveaways!! Goodie, goodie! No, wait - CRAP! I gotta work...
Now, if I had a Blackberry, an I-Phone, I-Pod Touch or the likes, I could stay up on this all day...(HINT HINT) ;)
I took a picture of folks camped outside a Best Buy in Mission Valley San Diego yesterday I bet they have no idea that Fry's has better deals ummm wrong blog.
I wonder how many of those folks thought they were in a "soup line" for the holidays???
I could do with a netbook....and a BB Storm.... :)
I could also do with an HDTV, Blu-ray player (make that a PS3), and some extra $$$ for all the electricity I am going to consume...
Maybe you could throw in a Windmill? Then miles of acres so that it's NIMBY in terms of directly behind my house (those bad boys are loud and would interfere with the 3G I would have)...Merry Christmas to me!
I'll be sure to jot that down in my calendar for tomorrow between eating leftover turkey and writing my "Wish List" to Santa.
Engadget always has awesome contest....this one seems like it could be another one!
I'll be happy to take whatever is available.
My place is tech thirsty, any gadget would be great....... except a Zune lol
amen, brother, just look at the ex-zune guy took him forever too see how bad the zune is.
Duct tape is currently my favorite thing. Engadget would replace that.
oh goodie
I love you Engadget.
hope this loot is actually worth it.
Awesome Engadget! Everyone's Black Friday deals seem to kinda suck this year, and "giveaway" sounds like the best deal around! I'll definitely be tuned in tomorrow.
It feels like it has been forever since the last giveaway - thanks Engadget!
Awesome!!
Why hasn't anyone said anything about Black Sabbath yet!?
This is outrageous!
yeah free stuff
Thanks Engadget-Christmas
YES
I'm so there.
I can't wait
Legit
Great! Will try this for the first time.
FREE[dom]!
Most likely I won't win as I never get lucky, but yay.
I refered a few people over here just now so they they could participate in this tomorrow as well ;) Should have tons of hits.
