Tired of Whistling While You Work? Win an iPod Shuffle from Biz Chicks Rule!

by Kristen King on July 1st, 2008

That’s right, girls, I’m giving away an iPod shuffle to one lucky Biz Chicks Rule reader.

ipod shuffle free contest giveaway win Music helps me get through the workday, and I’m lucky enough to be able to work on my own computer in my own office, where I can have as many music files as I want and crank the volume as high as I like. Sadly, not everyone is so lucky. And since I have an unopened iPod shuffle just lying around, I feel it is my duty to spread music to the working world.

So! Here’s how it works:

Visit your favorite women’s business blog Biz Chicks Rule and locate the contest post. (You’re already here — good job!)
Leave a comment stating your favorite song, band, or album to listen to while working and why it’s/they’re your favorite by the deadline of 11:59 pm ET on Sunday, July 13, 2008.
Each comment will be assigned a number in order and I will enter the numbers into the sequence randomizer at Random.org to select a winner. The first eligible comment in the sequence will be the winner. Trackbacks, duplicates, my and Bridget’s comments, and comments where people did not follow the directions are NOT eligible. Everyone else, including other b5 bloggers will be eligible.
I’ll announce the winner in a post and via e-mail on July 15.

IMPORTANT RULES

Winners must be US residents. You can share your favorite music if you’re outside the US, but I will not ship the iPod Shuffle outside of the United States, even if you offer to pay me back for postage. Not happening. US only. If you are outside the US and are commenting just for fun, PLEASE say in your comment that you are not entering the contest. It will save a lot of trouble.
You must provide your real e-mail address in the comment form. If you don’t give your real e-mail address in the e-mail field, I can’t notify you of your prize.
You must follow the directions. In other words, if you don’t say your favorite song/band/album for work, you are not eligible. "I want to win!" does not count. No exceptions. I’ll approve your comment so we can all laugh at you, but you will not win even if your number comes up.
You do not have to be a Biz Chick to win. Yes, Biz Dudes are also eligible. No gender discrimination here!
You must be willing to provide your full name and mailing address within 48 hours of notification if you win. If I don’t hear back from you in 48 hours, I’ll pick another winner and you are out of luck.
Only one entry per person. And yes, I do check IP addresses.

I’ll go first. I can do mindless work to any music, but if I’m concentrating, it has to be music I know really, really well or I get distracted listening to the lyrics. Here’s what’s on my must-stay-focused playlist right now:

Every Live album to date
Every Counting Crows album but the newest one, which I have yet to purchase because I’m working on this new self-control thing
Dashboard Confessional - The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most
Alison Krauss & Union Station - So Long, So Wrong
Colin Raye - Extremes
Rilo Kiley - Under the Blacklight
Dixie Chicks - Wide Open Spaces

Your turn!
