    Bingeing on Vitamin D, footy in the park and lazy afternoons whiled away in pub beer gardens are what summer's all about. But sometimes, retreating to a cool, darkened room for a guilty gaming fix is just the ticket. And because we don't want your third-degree sunburns on our conscience, we've giving away a raft of gaming gear that should keep you glued to a screen and safely sheltered from those dastardly UV rays. Thanks to our friends at SteelSeries, we've got no less than three gaming goodybags up for grabs, which each include one of the company's Apex M800 programmable, mechanical keyboards, Rival optical mice, Siberia V3 LED-laden headsets and Stratus XL wireless controllers (compatible with iOS/OS X). Basically, every peripheral you might need to wait out the summer in gaming heaven. As always, UK readers can enter the competition up to three times via the Rafflecopter widget below, but before you inevitably start clicking, just breeze through the rules real quick, would ya?

    There's nothing we enjoy more, dear readers, than kicking the week off by giving you the chance to win some free, tasty tech. And we've got an especially delectable prize for you this time around in the form of a Surface Pro 3 tablet, Microsoft's most recent attempt at crafting a slate with enough computing power to replace your laptop. It's not any old Surface either, as our generous friends at computing superstore and IT service provider Misco have only gone and hooked us up with a top-of-the-pile Core i7 model, replete with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. That's over a grand's worth of hardware we're looking forward to sending one lucky reader's way, and while it runs Windows 8.1 Pro out of the box, it'll be treated to a free upgrade to Windows 10 when Microsoft releases its latest OS revision to the masses. If you don't know the deal already: check out the rules and submit up to three entries via the Rafflecopter widget below. Then, cross your fingers and hope a card from that special someone isn't the best piece of correspondence you end up receiving this Valentine's day. Winning: congrats to Nic P. from Sutton Coldfield!

    Christmas is a time of giving, but let's be honest, being on the receiving end is so much better.

If you don't know the drill already, UK residents can enter the giveaway up to three times via the Rafflecopter widget below. Before you start clicking away, though, give the rules a quick read, would ya? Winning: congrats to Pete D. from Meifod, Wales!

    School's out for summer, and many of you are no doubt looking forward to sun, sea, several strong cocktails and a few weeks off work. Foreign lands are always better enjoyed with a trusted travel companion, and in lieu of actual friends, we're giving away a black Pebble Steel to fill that role.

GeniusFlight revolves primarily around your budget, which you specify alongside preferred travel dates and departing destination. The tool then tells you where in the world that money will take you, hopefully with some inspiring options you wouldn't have come up with unaided. As always, any Brits interested in taking a free Pebble Steel on tour can enter up to three times via the Rafflecopter widget below. After they've read the rules first, of course.

    It's currently the British definition of summer: a few short weeks in which to fit all the swimming, surfing, skating, cycling and sightseeing you possibly can. And, to prove you actually took advantage of the sun instead of sitting in a darkened room complaining it's too hot, we're giving away a GoPro Hero3+ Black Edition for you to catalog it all. This top of the range GoPro comes with a wireless remote, waterproof housing and selection of mounts to get you started, and was provided by the team at Tagstr. Accessible on the web or through its iOS app, Tagstr is a media-centric social network that groups uploaded photos, videos and audio based on their hashtags, creating "shared moments" from the content of its users. You have a personal profile (Facebook and Twitter login is supported) which friends can follow, but the real point of Tagstr is to explore and contribute to "moments" for different events, themes and more -- the perfect place to share some of your #summer GoPro footage, perhaps? In pursuit of a free GoPro, anyone can submit up to three entries via the Rafflecopter widget below. Oh, and give the rules a quick once-over while you're down there. Winning: congrats to Dave S. from Belfast!

    Samsung's Galaxy S5 is the best in its flagship series to date (duh), but if you don't have an upgrade loaded, it'll set you back a pretty penny. If only you could get hold of a brand-spanking new one for absolutely nothing (you can see where we're going with this, right?). Thanks to our friends over at Pixa Prints, that's exactly what we have to offer one lucky UK reader. And, because Pixa Prints is in the business of creating personalized mobile and tablet accessories, as well as other gifts and prints from photos and designs, we've also got six phone cases made especially for the winner to keep their new GS5 cosy. If you fancy your chances, head to the Rafflecopter widget below to submit up to three entries, and give the rules a quick read while you're at it, would ya? Good luck (Taken voice). Winning: congrats to Vic L. from Exeter, Devon.
