Gateway’s pink camera dealA weekly round up of deals, contest and free stuff. More at the Free+Win+Deals archive.

What? Mother’s Day is Sunday? Ahh… that’s why Gateway is tossing in a free pink Canon PowerShot SD1100 camera with every purchase of one of its M-Series laptops, which start at $899.99. So you keep the laptop (in Arctic Bloom on right) and give mom the camera. The camera itself is $250 and includes a 2-GB memory card. If pink just isn’t your color, Gateway will instead take $200 off the price. Is this a good deal? A quick Google search pulls up a FatWallet discussion from two weeks ago when the M-Series S laptop went on sale for 24 hours for $599. It sold out within 3 hours. The free-camera sale ends today (May 7).

Free web domains: MyDomain, a Vancouver, Wash.-company, plans to giveaway a few dozen dot-coms, nets, orgs and biz domains next Tuesday, May 13. Its “Marathon Giveaway” promotion will give domains to 25 people who click the site’s banner ad that day between 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Pacific Time. If you miss out, the site is still offering a two-for-one deal. Without any discounts, domains are $8.95 (includes 20-cent ICANN fee).
Online Video Guide Suggest a Site contest
Need $1,000? Just find a movie or TV-themed web site not already listed in OVGuide.com, the online video guide with a database of 1,684 sites from AnimeWoot to Zombie Cinema. Its ‘Suggest a Site‘ contest could be a ploy to get users to track down new web sites devoted to movies, TV shows or other video themes. But if you find one not in its database, you could be the monthly winner of $1,000. More DETAILS.
