A shredder is an essential tool to properly dispose of all the sensitive paperwork used for completing your tax return. Identity theft impacted 8.1 million American in 2007. With those kind of staggering numbers, anything you can do to help protect your identity is a good thing.

This week, we are giving away paper shredders from Fellowes. Three lucky Bizzia readers will win the PS-79Ci. These shredders retail for approximately $200 each.
The Fellowes’ PS-79Ci maintains cross-cut capabilities, which ensures that paper documents are nearly impossible for identity thieves to piece back together. It also features 100 percent Jam Proof technology that calculates the amount of paper being fed into the machine and stops a paper jam before it occurs. The shredder also detects when paper has been mis-fed or fast-fed into the shredder by turbo-powering through the job or reversing the paper out for easy removal.
Fellowes, Inc. is the world’s leading shredder manufacturer, so you know you are getting a quality product. To learn more about the shredder, visit fellowes.com.
To enter the giveaway, leave a comment here on this post and tell us why you want to win this shredder. The contest runs through this Sunday, April 19, 2009 at 11:59 ET. THREE random winners will be selected from all the entries and each will receive a shredder.
Thanks to Fellowes for sponsoring the giveaway!
I am very careful with shredding personal info. Please enter me :)
Hey – I’ve been shredding papers from the 1970’s and burned out the shredder. Need a new one!
I want this shredder because I have a lot of documents that need to be shredded. Unfortunately, it is no longer safe to dispose of personal documents without shredding them. Every household should have a quality shredder.
This would be great to win since I shred anything with important personal information to keep my identity safe and I have already burned out two shredders since I just got the basic shredder at WalMart.
I would love to win this shredder to get rid of all personal information on bills, etc. that need to be thrown away. I would like the sense of security as well as privacy that it would provide.
Thanks for the great giveaway.
A shredder that is so functional to protect confidentality and the environment. Thanks SW
I would like to win this shredder because I just broke the one we have now :( (by accident).
i would love to own this shredder because I do not own one right now and would love to see how useful it is to have one.
im terrified of identity theft
I could use a good quality shredder
Would like to win so that my husband can have his own shredder! This would be a perfect birthday gift from me to him.
My shredder has broken and I am now
only tearing my papers by hand.
It is time for a new shreder
OMG! I so need this new shredder because the one I have is broken on one side and I have to shred one piece of paper at a time and pull it out to shred the other side. I desperately need a new shredder and this would make my whole year to win this.
I’ve had my identity stolen twice and know how much of a hassle it is to try to clear your name. Would love this to shred any documents that have personal information.
I want to win this shredder because it looks very useful!
this would be very useful at my house:)
It looks nice, and I really need a good shredder to protect my info.
With all the identity theft going on I would love to have a shredder to completely destroy my bills,papers, and documents.
It is no longer safe to dispose of personal documents without shredding them. I am trying to declutter, but I’m afraid to throw away anything with my name or other information on it. That’s how I got so cluttered in the first place! I have cut names and addresses off of envelopes and then cut them into little pieces, but I actually havve a blister on my thumb from the scissors. Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this giveaway!
I have so many papers just lying around that are sensitive, so this would really help with my efforts to organize and declutter my house.

We have about ten years’ worth of stuff to shred. We don’t want to waste our money on something that’s going to konk out on year one.
I don’t currently have a shredder at home…other things just seem to come first when we have money.
I have a paper shredder already, but I would love to win this one because mine is not a very good shredder. I have to be sure to put no more than a few sheets in and even then it still gets jammed too often. Thanks for the giveaway!
Need one of these, never owned one yet, it’s a better alternative them ripping private papers by hand!
I would absolutely love to win this Fantastic Fellowes Shredder….
Thanks
This shredder is fantastic! I have the same one at work! Love to win it.
Thank you for this sweepstakes.

I could really use this right now and for awhile to come. I am going through my deceased mom and dads papers and there is so much to shred. I could use a good dependable shredder that will withstand mega use.
I want to win this because I already own a Fellowes that has been faithful to me for several years, but it has done a lot of shredding and needs to be replaced.
