{CLOSED} Giveaway: 8GB iPod Nano

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.

I have a fun giveaway for today courtesy of Ebates.  They are offering one lucky My Frugal Adventures reader an 8GB iPod Nano (retail value $149.99).

Ebates is a cash back company many of us know and love.  They offer cash back rebates for your online purchases.  So for example, if you decided to buy an item from the Disney Store today, you would get 7% cash back on your purchase.

So if you spend $100 on an item- that would be $7.00 in the form of a rebate back.  Easy!  Now the cash back amount will vary according to the store- as of posting the cash back amount on Target.com purchases is 3%.  So if you spent $100 at Target.com you would get a rebate back for $3. Sometimes the cash back amount can be as high as 50% or more for certain retailers- so it can really start to add up.

  • To get started with Ebates you first need to register for an account.
  • Then you will want to go to Ebates.com before you shop online.  Type in the name of the site you want to shop at- like Sephora.com, Oldnavy.com,Target.com, etc..
  • If they offer cash back to that site you will immediately see a percentage- for example 2% from Old Navy today or 4% from Sephora today.
  • Then just click through the shop now button and shop as usual.
  • Your rebate amount will show up in your account within a few days and they will actually mail you a check quarterly!
  • If you are new to Ebates you can register and they will also give you a $5 bonus for signing up.

If you would like to win theiPod Nano provided by Ebates just register for a new account (if you are already registered you don’t need to do a thing.)

Then just leave a comment below letting me know what you would use your Nano for!  Is it for yourself, for a gift?  I would probably use the Nano myself for a few mental health breaks during the day (two kids under 3 can be a tiny bit noisy at times.)

And finally a bonus entry if you subscribe to MFA via email, follow on Twitteror like me on Facebook .  Be sure to leave a second comment letting me know!

*Please be sure to actually leave a comment below.  Any emails, Facebook messages or tweets will not be counted.  If you are viewing this in a reader just click through to the blog to leave your comment.

This contest will run through Sunday at 4pm PST.

GOOD LUCK!

    I would gift this to my father, he broke his old (crappy) mp3 player. He’s a painter so he needs a small, light and easy to use one and this would be perfect! I wanted to get one for his christmas present but i just couldn’t afford it.

    I recently joined the gym again (now that my kids are 2 & 4, I am compfortable leaving them in the daycare). A new iPod would be a great way to distract me while I struggle through the cardio!

    I am already an ebates member…..Although this is hard for me to say, I would keep this prize for myself. My children already own ipods, so I would use this as a way to take a break for myself and enjoy music I love.

    I would gift it to a needy family at our church. They have both lost their jobs recently and are in need of help. I would load upbeat songs on it and leave it between their front doors. I think this would be a great surprise for them and hopefully give them some hope that things will be getting better for them.

    I would keep it for myself, Im doing the Crim 10 mile race in Flint, Michigan in August, would be great for training and during the race!

    I liked you on Facebook! Thanks for all your hard work — it is greatly appreciated. You don’t know how much money you have saved my family already!!

    I would use the ipod as a way to relax from my four children and maybe even when I exercise =) I have wanted one for a long time just can’t justify spending the money on one!!!

  24. Jenny says

    I subscribe to your e mails! I would use it while I’m on the bus to work or at the gym.

    I would TOTALLY keep it for myself. My husband and both of my kids already have an iPod, so it would be alllllllll mine. 🙂

  36. Lisa Murphy says

    I would keep it for my self, my husband has 2 and my daughter has 1. It would be great to use while cleaning the house and working out.

  42. Marcie says

    OMG, this giveaway rocks, I would give it to my sister, she is amazing and deserves a treat!

  43. Sara says

    Hmm…I’d want to keep it for myself but I’d probably end up giving it to my Hubby.

  44. sarah huffman says

    It would be a gift for my brother…he is currently in the market for one!

  46. Kristina L. says

    I would use this for myself, when I walk in the mornings. I’m sure my husband would LOVE to borrow it though!

  47. susan says

    I would give it to my husband for our 29th anniversary. He has been wanting one to listen to music while he reads, and we just can’t afford it right now.
