Every week, we get stuff like CDs, books, lotions, punching bags, M and Ms—and usually, we use it to review it. But some items we don’t need, and that’s where you come in. One lucky winner will win a collection of our merchandise—materials from what we call “the free bin” or “Christmas presents for friends we don’t want to spend money on.” There’s always a few hidden gems. To enter, e-mail us at swag@timeoutny.com with the subject line “Swag contest.” Or snail mail your name, address and contact info to us at the following:
