After a week hiatus due to me being out of town, BG is back with a whole new list of contests. Thanks to everyone who’s been sending them in for inclusion on the list! Oh, and don’t forget – Listen to our podcast to learn how to win a signed Castlevania cartridge! Also, give a donation to our children’s charity and you could win a really great prize, like a DSi.

Here are some gaming/tech/geek contests going on this week. I’ve tried to weed out any “contests” that are really scams to get you to sign up for programs that charge your credit card, stuff like that. Check back every Sunday for more contests and giveaways!

Ending Monday 5/18:

• TV tuner and a copy of Windows Vista Ultimate at Mom Start - Not sure when this one is over, so enter today to be on the safe side.
• Farcry 2 fortunes Pack at The Raze World – Again, not really sure when this one ends (end of the month maybe?) so enter today to be on the safe side.

Ending Wednesday 5/20:

• $20 to Hollywood Video and $20 to Amazon at The Last Blog on Earth – Hey, 20 bucks is 20 bucks. That’ll get you an older game, or maybe some kind of awesome Wii peripheral.

Ending Friday 5/22:

• $20 American Express Gift Card at Mom Saves – Again, 20 bucks is 20 bucks. How about picking up Puzzle Kingdoms with it?

Ending Saturday 5/23:

• Element Liquid Case for the iPhone 3g and Revoltec Fightboard Gaming Keyboard at TestFreaks – They’re actually giving away cool tech-related prizes every week, so you might want to bookmark the site. I’ve noticed that the chances to win seem to be really good!
• F-Secure Internet Security 2009, an F-Secure 1GB memory stick, and $125 gift card to Target.com at An Island Life – All you have to do is comment to enter, and the odds aren’t off the charts for winning.

Ending Sunday 5/24:

• Pepsi Throwback Prize Pack at Midwestern Mommy – The prize pack includes a Pepsi Throwback Trucker Cap, Pepsi Tin Lunch Box, a Retro Clock Radio/CD Player, a USB Lava Lamp as well as a Pepsi Throwback and a Mountain Dew Throwback. Sweet.

Ending next week and beyond:

• VIP Trip to E3 at Game Pro – Yes, you have to work for this one. You have to sign up for an account and write a post about the top 20 games of all time. But the prize? SOOOO worth it. Flight to LA, hotel, E3 VIP tickets, and access to GamePro’s E3 party for you AND a friend. While you’re there, you’ll be “working” for GamePro, dong some reporting for them…but again, the prize is totally worth the effort. Ends 5/25/09.
• Harry Potter Prize Pack at Mom to Tweens – Ok, I’m not an HP fan, but I know a lot of you people are, so this contest’s for you. Ends 5/25/09;
• Nintendo DS Spring Bundle at Chic Shopper Chick – The bundle comes with a green DS lite, a copy of Personal Trainer: Cooking, and a carrying case. Even if you don’t want that “game” or the girly-ish case, you’re still getting a DS out of it, so it’s worth entering to wni. Ends 5/31/09.
• $250 worth of gift cards to Target.com, Amazon.com, & Macys.com plus a copy of F-Secure 2009 at Contest for Moms- Another great giveaway in conjunction with F-Secure. Ends 5/31/09.
• $250 Visa Giftcard at Divine Caroline -You have to register to leave a comment, and you have to comment to win. It’s a pain in the ass, I know, but $250 makes it worth it. Ends 5/31/09.
• $20 Visa Giftcard at Bonggamom Finds – Yes, a second person is giving away a huge chunk of change. No registration necessary! Ends 7/8/09.
  

Are you running a contest of giveaway that I missed? Please let me know, and I’ll add you to the list! We ONLY list contest of interest to geeks and gamers (gift cards, video games, tech devices, fantasy books, etc), so you won’t get your baby blanket giveaway listed here. Sorry! If you’re unsure, just email me and I’ll let you know one way or the other.

Just a small disclaimer – Binge Gamer isn’t running or otherwise sponsoring any of these contests unless otherwise noted. Be smart about giving out personal information and signing up for things. If you see something that looks like a scam, email me to let me know!
