Frankly, I'm more interested in the matching bell bottoms.
I shuddered with excitement when I saw this as a giveaway. My mother tells me how unfeminist that is but I think feminism is choosing to be excited about a vacuum and not being forced to be excited about it. Who knew an appliance could be so political?
Perhaps I'm getting older but this giveaway is the most exciting one so far for me.
This one is exciting for me because my vacuum broke and I haven't been able to afford a new one and have been borrowing my friends vacuum and it's getting old :/ I would REALLY like this!
need a vacuum!
I love my old Oreck, but it's starting to die out, and with a 90lb Long-Haired German Shepherd, a reliable vacuum is definitely a must! This is sweet!
This is the most enticing sweepstakes I've seen in a long time. Please, Santa Baby!
I don't have a vacuum, and I have a long haired cat. This would be amazing to have.
oh please me me me me!
I REALLY am in need of a vacuum!!! I would really appreciate this!
Freshly vacuumed rugs=Instant happiness!
My current vac requires me to wear noise-canceling headphones. I really need this item! Will it accommodate the dog brush featured previously on this site?
OMG! I want this vacuum! I have been recently looking at new vacuums too and this one looks amazing!
I was just telling a friend that you know you're "mature" when the idea of getting a new vacuum is considered a "sexy" gift because someone really cares about you!
Ooooh! Perfect timing. My vacuum just broke and it's time for a replacement. :)
There's just something so comforting about a brand new vacuum that actually sucks up the dirt.
appleseed you should click through and check out the whole model they used. She got dressed and made up just to vacuum an already clean house.
This is my favorite of all the giveaways! My boyfriend is moving into a HUGE house that is wall to wall carpeting and has a crappy vacuum. My dog sheds like mad. That combination is a recipe for disaster and this is the perfect cure!
Wife would be quite pleased with the interwebs.
This would be wonderful! My vaccume isn't sucking my these days & starting to smoke when I use it.
I agree, cloggiegirl!
drooooool.....
My Oreck is dying! I could use this.
I have the worst vacuum cleaner ever. I would love this new one!
I simply love to vacuum!
What a wonderful giveaway! I just moved into a new (for ME) studio apartment in which I hoped to clean the floors with a Swiffer. Ends up there are these fun, painted wooden floors in part that have separations with lots of fun debris that needs to be sucked out! Was just on Dyson's site, and now this! :)
yes please! I really need to replace my 20 year old oreck!
I just murdered my parents' vacuum... or maybe it was their four cats? Either way, it's dead and I owe them one. This would more than make up for it!
I could use a vacuum that is easier to push around and what do what it's supposed to do!
My dad bought an Oreck sometime in the early 90s and it's still going strong. Must admire the quality!
My vacuum just died yesterday! I could so use this.
Cannot believe this thing is $800, though. I mean, there are stupider things that cost $800, but truly this is an amazing world. (Entered giveaway, of course.)
i'm still waiting for the Hastings bed give away, but this is nice too.
clean clean
this would get so much use!
awesome pants!
my favourite giveaway so far......oh!!! how i pine for a decent vacuum....
please oh please!!!
OMG I could really use a good vacuum! I have allergies and a really strong vacuum would be so helpful!
yes please!
Filled with overwhelming desire. Also, Appleseed is funny.
Yay! It's time to say goodbye to my old ugly vacuum.
I love Oreck. I still mourn for my first one that my mom guilted me into giving her. While I was able to get a second one, it is not as nice as my first one since these are expensive, even the lesser ones.
Cat hairs begone!
This would be my first real-person vacuum... all I've been able to afford is the hardwood-floor-only fake-type ones. Ooooh pick me!
i just bought the ergorapido and to my disappointment it really doesn't have enough power to pull dirt off wool rugs. i'd love the opportunity to give this bad boy a whirl around the floors
There is nothing better than a pretty vacuum, that actually works. Id be honored to rid my home of my garage sale vacuum and replace it with this bad boy!
say something.....yea
I was just looking for a new vacuum, and this upright is perfet
Need. This. Vacuum! Our's is breathing it's last, and we absolutely have to have a good vacuum since our beloved dog sheds so much!
Awesome!
Oreck has awesome vacumns it would be my lucky day to own such a great product thanks for the chance Unplggd!I am wishing and hopeing!!
Oh wow!
Thanks for offering this great Oreck vacuum as a prize! I would love to win it. With 2 dogs, a herd of cats, a teenager, and a partridge in a pear tree, I could sure use it! :) Happy Holidays!
Buh-na-NUHS!
Considering my rugs have been cleaned by broom for the last week since my vacuum died, this is quite an exciting prospect!
Massive dirt, dust and allergen pick-up? Oh yes, please.
lol @appleseed. 800$ for a vacuum? that's amazing. maybe it works without having to bang it first.
Ohhhhh hallowed vacuum cleaner! How I covet thee!!............where's my pen and paper...
Dear Old vacuum cleaner,
Your days of mocking me are over. You weigh a ton, you make cleanup backbreaking and you cough your pigpen cough right back onto my rugs.
I don't want you anymore. Go ahead, threaten to leave... there's the door! I'm not bluffing. Fine, I'm sick of putting up with you. Just understand this: I said it first: I'm dumping you, you're not dumping me.
Yes, I can afford to dump you, now; I've met someone spectacular.
Forever not yours,
Original Ann
Our long-haired rescued cat (named Cocoa) leaves fur everywhere - - we call them Cocoa Puffs. We NEED a new vacuum to keep up with him.
IT WOULD BE NICE IF SANTA HAS A HEART FOR CATS AND PETS IN GENERAL I KNOW HE DOES BECAUSE WITH 11 RESCUE FURBABIES THIS WOULD BE A FULL BLOWN WHITE CHRISTMAS
