GIVEAWAY: iPod Touch/Bose Update (12/15)

December 15, 2008: And so it ends. This is the last time I'll post for the iPod Touch/BOSE giveaway. What a great time it's been over the past few months--over a million of you have entered, most via email--and on Thursday, it will be time to pick a winner. We now have THREE days left on this contest, so if you haven't been playing, start catching up!

Here's the last update on the giveaway.

As with the Playstation 3 giveaway , we are also making winning the iPod Touch and BOSE SoundDock easy. Just go to the A-Z directory on the right margin (just below my face), and start clicking through the listings until you find a variation of the words "iPod Touch" in a sentence at the end of the review.

But here's a twist: Send me all the reviews in which the word appears in the M section (it appears FOUR times there), and in the J, P, L, B, C, T, D, F, R and S sections (there are SIX in the S section). LOOK FOR THEM AND EMAIL THE ANSWERS.

IF YOU ALREADY KNOW, NO NEED TO LOOK--JUST SEND ME THE ANSWERS.

The word will be in red. Once you find them all, go to this page, fill out the information, send me an email with the names of the listings that have "iPod Touch" at the end of the review, and you'll be in it to win it!

DO NOT REVEAL TO ANYONE THE LOCATION OF THE WORDS. DO NOT POST THE LOCATIONS ANYWHERE ON THIS SITE.

You may enter once per day for the duration of the contest.

This contest will be updated several times (at least twice a week) with new locations where the word can be found, thus increasing your chances of winning if you email me the locations.

The contest ends on December 18, 2008, and the iPod Touch and the BOSE SoundDock will be shipped overnight to the winner. So, you can either keep it for yourself or go all crazy and give them away as a holiday gift.

IMPORTANT: To further increase your chances of winning, leave a comment on this post. You can do so below in the "Comments" or "Post a Comment" section. You also can also do this once per day. THIS IS CRITICAL TO INCREASE YOUR CHANCES TO WIN--SO LEAVE A COMMENT DAILY!

In other words, with this particular contest, the more you leave comments and email me the location of the hidden word, the higher your chances of winning.

Good luck!
