Short, but sweet, our first giveaway in a very long time. We’re giving away a bunch of Techko paper shredders. Fifteen of them, to be exact.
How’d we get them? Long ago, a local OfficeMax was giving them away for $2 each. We bought a ton. We’ve been trying to get rid of them. Stocking stuffers, random acts of kindness, we’ve tried it all.
We’re sick of them. Please win one of them so we can get rid of them. They have traveled thousands of miles (quite literally) during our perpetual startup office moving.
These Techko paper shredders are strip-cut shredders that can handle up to six pages at once, with staples. And yes, they come with their own waste bin. The waste bin is a pain in the rear to set up, fair warning.
Now, a few quick rules:
* Only one entry per human being. We reserve the right to exclude/disregard votes that we deem to appear to be fraudlent.
* You must be 18 years old (sorry folks under 18, the lawyers said so for now).
* This giveaway is open to anyone in the contiguous United States (Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, etc are excluded), except for Alabama.
* Winner’s names will be posted at the end of this giveaway as an update to this post.
* At the end of the giveaway, we will contact you asking for your address. You must respond within 24 hours of the email being sent, with your address.
To enter, post a comment in this article. Please don’t forget to use your real email address this time.
This giveaway will end at 12:00 PM Pacific on October 20th. Enjoy! And, most importantly, thanks for staying with PhoneNews.com through the thick and thin.

Always wanted one just never got one. THANKS
Thank you for the chance to win a shredder. How did you know we’ve been wanting one!?
I have been reduced to shredding with hand scissor shredders (you know the ones). I need to come into the 21st century. A decen paper shredder would free up my time so that I could do more interesting things, such as getting to my filing (ha!).
I’d like to enter! Thanks for this great contest.
I could use a new paper shredder.
I would love to win one. Or a samsung galaxy tab 🙂 but for now, a shredder, to throw away all my non compliant HIPPA “stationary”
15/57 thats a 25% chance of winning. I’ll take those odds.
Hello
Are there anymore left lol
I hope I win…
“The waste bin is a pain in the rear to set up, fair warning.” Well hell, why wouldn’t I want one of these.

Do you have one that can shred phones or a network? My HTC TP2 and AT&T are killing me.. So if you have one I can use to shred it, I’d appericate it! If not you can just send me the one for paper, and I’ll deal.
Thanks!!

I could use a paper shredder
I’ll throw a comment out here for a chance of one. In need of one since mine died and since have filled up a big cardboard box of “to shred” papers in the closet.
I would really like a shredder. BTW. This is my favorite phone blog site!
I would so like one. I have TONS and TONS of bills I have no intention of paying but yets the bills keep piling up. I need a shredder PLEASE! Out of site out of mind.
I have been reading this site ever since and when. I used to work for Sprint and used this site alot to get the edge even before I knew the news as an employee. Anyways look forward to future news. Much techie luv.

After further investing, I stumbled on the very last sentence in the article…
“* At the end of the giveaway, we will contact you asking for your address. You must respond within 24 hours of the email being sent, with your address.” Well pie in my face…
Ben

Did the list of winners ever come out?
Hi everyone, we shipped the shredders out right as we were leaving for Sprint Open Dev. The article has been updated with the list of winners. Thanks again everyone!
