Simply tell us why you would love to win a P-Touch Labeller by writing in the comments section below {be as creative as you’d like!}. A comment will be randomly selected and the winner will receive their own shiny new labeller! But don’t wait…this contest will close on September 29th, 2009 @ 5:00 p.m. EDT.
How the winner will be selected
Using Research Randomizer, I will input the total # of comments submitted below. Research Randomizer will then issue a random number. If, for example, the number is 4, the 4th comment (in chronological order) will be awarded the prize.
I will announce the winner on my blog on September 30th – so please keep your eyes peeled.

I would use it to label the kids on the soccer team I coach – I'm always forgetting their names. Beyond that I would use it to make little signs all over the house for all the imperative "dad stuff" like:Turn off this light, an empty room doesn't need to see!Close the door, I'm not paying to heat the neighborhood! Brush your teeth for TWO (2) minutes.These stairs are not a closet, put your shoes away.This hamper is here for a reason.No video games unless your homework is done.Doing the dishes includes the pans.This floor is not a toybox.You get the idea… 🙂

This hamper is here for a reason.
No video games unless your homework is done.
Doing the dishes includes the pans.
This floor is not a toybox.

I'm setting up my home office, and would love to start out being wonderfully organized with everything in it's properly labeled place!!

I am very organized in my online world where labels are easy to come by (folders, tags, etc…)Not so good at organizing "real world" objects. Perhaps the p-touch can put me on the path to better organization. 🙂

I NEEEEEED this!! Why? Because it's cute, it's small, it hooks up to my computer, and I have so many things without labels on them… Like… The dogs! 🙂

ummm sure it's cute, it would eb super-handy, it rates highly on my gadgets and gizmo scale but I'd probably just end up returning to my trusted Sharpie black pen and scribbling all over everything so I gotta pass…. I like the guy who is intent on labelling everything in his shed… it's kinda funny and yet deeply distrubing…

As a product design major at Stanford, this product really stands out to me. I actually stumbled upon this website, looking for some inspiration on a project and I saw the picture of the p-touch labeller; and I would have to say that I wish I had been the designer. It is very simple and stream-lined and is what I imagine a labeller to be. It is miniature and compact.And I am inspired.
