DT’s ‘Better Than Socks’ Holiday Giveaway: Fitbit Zip

By Aaron Colter December 11, 2012

It was only after those pounds of turkey, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, apple pies, glazed ham, tree-shaped sugar cookies, and fruit cakes that you realized last year’s most important resolution never got resolved. Never fear: 2013 is a new year and a more appropriate time to get your exercise on – all while looking pretty awesome with this Fitbit Zip in your pocket. The pint-sized pedometer will help you keep track of daily steps and calories burned so you’ll push yourself to get better numbers every day.

You could buy your own Fitbit Zip at $60 retail, or you can attempt to win one for free today (Spoiler alert: Free is always better than $60 out of your wallet). To try your chance at winning my gift to you, share with us your absolute favorite song to workout to, and why. What gets you pumped up at the gym or on the streets? Impress me and this little gadget is yours. The contest ends in just one week on December 18, so let us know in the comments and I will be contacting the winner personally at the end of the giveaway.

Fitbit Zip’s not really your thing? Check back often as we’ll be running DT’s ‘Better Than Socks’ Holiday Giveaways all month long.

UPDATE: The contest has officially closed! A warm thank you for those who shared their responses, and if you did not win, check out our giveaway link above for other active contests.

Tineco Floor One Stretch S6: 7 features that make it a marvelous wet-dry vacuum

Woman cleaning her home with FLOOR ONE Strech S6 multi-functions

A huge challenge with cleaning your home and living spaces is that the tools you use, like a vacuum, don't always stretch or reach everywhere you want to go. For example, under a couch or a reclining chair, where dust and debris might have built up over time. The Tineco Floor One Stretch S6 changes all of that. For starters, it has a 5.1-inch compact design, making it super low-profile. But it also lays flat, up to 180 degrees, so you can get under those hard-to-reach spaces. It's a marvelous piece of machinery that can take your cleaning to a whole new level. Of course, there's so much more it has to offer, so we thought it best to call out the top features for you.
