XShot – 12 Days Review & Giveaway (Closed)

Facebook Twitter Stumbleupon

On the eleventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…
XShot LogoI did a review of the XShot about a month ago. We took it with us on a weekend getaway to Jasper and had a lot of fun with it. To learn more about the XShot and to read why I am such a fan of it, please read my original review post.

XShot sampleIn short, the XShot allows you to take pictures on your own without having to carry a tripod wherever you go. When I was putting together my holiday festival I immediately thought of requesting to include a giveaway from XShot. This is a fantastic gift for anyone. If you travel on your own, it gives you the flexibility of being able to include yourself in any picture you want. Even if you travel with a group it’s still great to have. Who really likes to be left out of group pictures?

The XShot can be purchased for $29.95 on the XShot site and ships to Canada, US and internationally.

XShotXShot has generously offered one lucky This Bird’s Day reader an XShot of their own as a giveaway.

To enter (mandatory entry): Leave me a comment at the end of this post telling me who you would like to give this to as a gift, or where you would use the XShot if you are the lucky winner (please include your email or a way to contact you should you win). *You must do this for any additional entries to count.

    I completly agree – So genious!!! How many times does one think to themselves how taking a picture of themself or with someone else would be so great (especially on vacation), but scared to ask someone to take a picture of them. I'm always so scared that the individual would just run away with your camera or take a bad picture! hehe! Love this product!
