Giveaway: A Fellowes Shredder, Baby!

July 21, 2010 by Audrey  
Filed under Audrey, Giveaway

There’s one thing in this house that we never knew we needed until we had one… a SHREDDER. With my husband and I both working from home – we have work documents, bank statements, receipts and many other items that we never shredded before. We just tossed them in the recycling bin and never thought about them again. But… those papers had important info on them… stuff that we don’t want other people seeing.

So we started shredding!

We have a Fellowes new P-12C Shredder. It features Cross-Cut technology, and a slim profile design, which allows it to fit easily under a desk. It’s very sleek and all-business-like!

One thing I love is that the P-12C offers Fellowes’ patented SafeSense technology, an electronic sensor that surrounds the machine’s paper opening and shuts it down when hands come close. This is GREAT for us because we have small kids running around. It’s also very easy to use, something that everyone can appreciate. It shreds up to 12 sheets of paper at once and even shreds through staples, credit cards and paper clips. It’s that good!

The P-12C is available at Target stores nationwide for a suggested retail price of $84.99.

BUT!! I’m giving one away!!

Leave me a comment telling me why you need this shredder for your home!! I will be choosing a winner on Monday, August 2nd!!

    I’d love to win… our shredder broke awhile ago and we never got a new one… plus I love how this one has the cross-cut technology!

  2. jen says:

    It would be great to have one in the house. Right now our shredding methods involves scissors and/or our hands…doesn’t quite cut it for really getting rid of important info.

  3. Sarah says:

    This would totally solve paperwork mountain that has taken over my laundry room!

  4. Ashley says:

    Our shredder broke a month or so ago and the stuff to shred is piling up! We need this shredder :)

  5. Cassie says:

    We have a trash can in our office at home that we use for our “shred” stuff…it would be nice to have the shredder there and we could shred it right away!!!

  6. I’m tired of tearing up bills with my hands! Our current shredder is too small and fills up very quickly.

  7. I need this shredder for my home so I can feel safe knowing my personal information isn’t leaving the house to end up in the public landfill :) *Thanks* for the giveaway!

  8. Karen says:

    I need this shredder because I live with a boy who keeps EVERY scrap of paper he touches!

  9. Mary says:

    I need this shredder because my dear hubby really likes to leave his papers lying around everywhere and it would help us to clear out that clutter! Not to mention he is constantly researching which shredder to buy but never actually buys one!

  10. Shari says:

    We have more paper around this house! And much of it is the sort of stuff we wouldn’t want people digging in our trash, finding and stealing the info, so having a shredder sure would make things easier. Maybe I could put my scissors away and stop cutting all up myself! ;)

  11. kate says:

    i’m drowning in paper! I have started a trash bag full of things that need shredding, but with 3 little ones….i’ve never had the time (or the shredder!)

  12. Jodi Jennison says:

    This would be such a blessing for us!! Our current shredder is on it’s last leg, and quite frankly just doesn’t shread anymore! We have to go in and use scissors after we’ve run it through….no bueno. Thanks for the chance to win this!

  13. Susan P. says:

    My current shredder is getting quite dull and needs to be replaced so this would be perfect!

  14. Kelley says:

    I have never had one, but would LOVE one!

  15. Pam says:

    My husband has starting working at home 1/2 time and a new shredder would help immensely. Pam :)

  16. Paula says:

    I would love a shredder because I have files and files of old bills that I need to recycle! Ripping them up by hand doesn’t do it!

  17. Roetta Mann says:

    I am almost 60 yrs and never had a shredder. We have a farm and have always just hand torn all our papers. I have just never invested in one.
    I would love to try your shredder!!!

  18. Donna Wallis says:

    I would love to win a Fellowes Shredder, we love our Fellowes Laminator. Our shredder quit working about a month ago. Being retired, it hasn’t been possible to replace the shredder yet. With our health problems we have a stack of papers just waiting to be shredded.

  19. Brenda Young says:

    I desperately need a shredder to shred financial and personal documents. Sometimes they have a shred event in town and I take my items there but I couldn’t make it to the last one and they haven’t offered any others. My papers are piling up!! Thanks for considering my plea! :-)

  20. Chad W. says:

    My old shredder has had it. And I need to go through this year’s stuff. I really could use it. Things are tight, I just accidentally washed my month old iPhone 4, and now I have to pay $200 for it’s replacement. Ouchy me.

  21. I just posted a link to your contest :)

  22. maria says:

    i could use a shredder!! Mine broke about a year ago and havbe not replaced it.

  23. Ariah says:

    I bought a shredder at the thrift store once, but it’s so wonky that I never use it, I just pile my papers in a box and think someday I’ll shred them but I don’t. This slick looking shredder could be the centerpiece in our office and be useful!

  24. Rebecca Graham says:

    I could use this. I will be cleaning out file cabinets and need to shred bank statements, etc. with my personal numbers and information on them.

  25. GK says:

    This would be so helpful at our house! We usually burn our sensitive stuff in our outdoor fireplace, but it’s been so hot and dry this summer we haven’t had a chance to do much burning, so things are piling up. We have single-stream recycling in our town, so just tossing it isn’t a good option, and with the arthritis in my hands, cutting it up with scissors is out, too.

    Thanks for the opportunity to win! :)

  26. Jennifer says:

    I have a small, home based business and really, really, really need to shread a mountain of documents in my office. I would LOVE to win one.

  27. Marj M. says:

    I live in a trailer court and I “need” this shredder for all the papers I now cut up with a scissor.

  28. Carly Collier says:

    I really like the safety features of this shredder as well as the power!!! I would LOVE this!

    Thanks!
    Carly

  29. Tiffany says:

    Boy, do I need this shredder! I realize that I am a compulsive hoarder. I found paystubs from 18 years ago!! My shreder broke from all the stuff I had to shred. I don’t think I need bank statements from accounts that I no longer have but just don’t feel safe to just toss them in a bag! This shredder will surely help!

  30. Kelly Ann T says:

    Since my husband ownes his own business we need to shredd documents with our clients personal information.

  31. DJ says:

    I burned out my other shredder when I cleaned my room! Now I need a new one.

  32. Peggy Gorman says:

    I don’t have a shredder and it looks perfect ! I get mail and its piling up! I would put it to use everyday. Thanks for the chance
