Save Your Wine: Win a Vacu Vin
If you find yourself pouring wine down the drain because it went bad before you drank it, have I got the thing for you. It’s called Vacu Vin, and it sucks air out of the wine bottle, prolonging its life a little longer. This box contains the pump with two stoppers, which are reusable.
I use mine all the time and have an extra one that’s never been opened.
I decided, once I read about this wonderful idea called The Bloggy Giveaway, that I would give this one away instead of letting it collect dust. All you have to do is leave a wine-related comment on this post, and I will choose a random winner this Friday, April 25.
Though I love international readers, due to shipping costs, I can only send this to readers in the U.S.
Head over to that link at Don’t Try This at Home to see all the other great contests! Lots of fun things to win. I’ve got my eye on some gift cards….
We had these at a joint I used to work at. They work great, and I’ve always wanted one of my own. Although, I must say wine rarely gets wasted at our house
We have trouble getting through a bottle of wine so this would be great! We have some great local wines around here. I’m a pinot grigio and chardonnay fan.
I’m going to have to drink a lot of wine at home – my daughter’s going to college and we can’t afford to go out anymore.
This looks so neat! Thanks for the great giveaway!
wow this looks cool. i think it would a gift for my dad, as i bet it also is a good way to keep wine at the right temp, which is a big deal for him
GREAT giveaway!
I LOVE love love this gadget, I had one or something very similar years ago and it is long lost. I need a new one! I am enjoying a lovely glass of Gewurztraminer from Chateau St. Michelle in Washington tonight. YUM!

Thanks and have a lovely day!
I am new to the whole wine thing! I just did a big wine tasting weekend a couple of weeks back and bought quite a few bottles! This little gadget looks like it might be handy!
This would be a great gift for my dh … I’m in!
That sounds really neat. I never finish a bottle of wine before it goes bad, so this sounds like it would help.
what a cool product, i hate wasting wine!

I’ve been wanting on of these. How perfect!
Sounds like just what the doctor ordered at our house.

My wine related comment is about 2 of my favorite places to buy wine!
This place is very close to home…about 45 minutes away!

I also really like this place but it’s about 4 hours from where I live! I can buy it at a local store though!!!

If you like wine! Check them out!
I can’t leave just yet! I just thought of another place I really like! I’ve been a few times! I can’t wait till this years harvest! I’m going to do the grape stomp…after you do this you make a t-shirt with the grape juice from your feet!!! FUN FUN! Here is the link:

These are alllllllllllllllllllllllllll Texas Wines! =)
Sorry for such a L-O-N-G comment!!!!
I usually freeze leftover wine in ice cube trays, then remove to a freezer baggie for use in chili and other recipes. but ahhhhh to be able to drink it so much better! love gadgets!
My new favorite wine is called Cat’s Phee on a Gooseberry Bush! It sounds stupid and gross but it is actually a very flavorful fruity wine and you should all give it a try. :c)
Fun! Here’s my wine-related comment: I really want to get a box of wine for my refrigerator, mostly because it’s funny. But frankly I’d rather get my calories from a nightly cookie and save the wine for special occasions.
I’m not much of a wine drinker, but my parents do enjoy a glass most evenings–this would be a terrific way for them to not have to finish a bottle every time

I drink red wine every night. I tell myself it is for the health benefits, but really, I just love wine.
We drink lots of wine made right here in California, this would be great!
What a neat gadget! I’m so tired of buying wine in those four packs of little bottles! Not much of a selection there! I’d love to try something different, knowing it wouldn’t go to waste if we didn’t drink the whole bottle right away!
Since it takes us a month to drink a bottle of wine, this would be perfect for us.
Thanks for the chance to win!

Well, I will tell you that my brother who lives alone and loves to open a bottle of wine, but only drinks one glass at most would totally benefit from this. I thought hmm.. I’ll get him some 1/2 bottles of wine, this way he won’t waste so much. BUT! he had the hardest time getting the synthetic cork back in the bottle, you think it’s hard getting in the 750 ml, well, he chiseled away at it for 5 mins. before it would fit back in. I truly think he needs a vacu-vin.
Cheers, P
I was thinking on giving this to my mother in law if I won but she would have no use for it because her wine never stays long enough in the bottle to go bad.
Thank you for the great giveaway!

Since my husband doesn’t drink wine I rarely finish a whole bottle without having to pour some out. This would go to great use in my house. Save the grapes!
Well, I don’t often have leftover wine, but when I do I need a way to keep it fresh.
Thanks for the giveaway!
A friend loves wine! I would love to give this to her!
Thank you!
I’ve used “flat” wine for seasoning when cooking
…although I’d prefer to have this handy little gadget! Thanks for offering it!
We belong to the wine of the month club and this would totally get good use at our house.
This would be very useful, now I won’t have to drink the whole bottle. Just kidding. I really like dessert wines. Thanks for the chanc.e
I have a mini-bar set up in my home. Needless to say we’re huge wine fans. This would come in handy. Thanks.

Looks great! Thanks for the giveaway!
My husband just bought me a bottle of my favorite local White Merlot. This would be so handy to have. I have friends who love theirs.
Thanks for the Great Give away.
I’d love this – I never can finish a bottle of wine in one sitting! And if anyone knows where I can find Penfolds Rawson’s Retreat Semillon Chardonnay in the Dallas area, please contact me – I’m having a hard time finding it, and it’s one of my favorite white wines.
…it always feels good to WiNe a bit

I’m enjoying a nice glass of Cabernet Franc from Fox Run Vineyards here in New York State. I’d love to be able to preserve it with that doohickey!
