Print UPDATE: Congratulations to our winners, CupcakeKiller and HarmonicHealer! We'll be contacting you for your mailing addresses to send your Wicked Audio earbuds! Thanks to everyone who entered.

Thanks to our friends at Wicked Audio, we have two sets of earbuds to give away, so how about a comment contest?
To enter, just leave a comment on this post. That's it, that's all you have to do. The deadline is 5:00pm Pacific on Friday October 1. (That's tomorrow! Seriously, where did September go?) [Contest finished!]
Two commenters will be randomly selected to win a stylish set of earbuds from Wicked Audio. Check 'em out...
Wicked Little Buds, which we have in black but also come in blue, purple, and silver, retail for $29.99 (but you can find them for around $20 on Amazon). They're small and lightweight, with a fabric-wrapped cord and barely-there feel.
If normal earbuds feel uncomfortable stuffed in your ears, the Wicked Little Buds have a slimmer fit.
And the Wicked Empire earbuds come in five models with shiny, 3D icons on the buds—the ones we're giving away are called Lucky (how apropos!) and feature little 8-balls. The other designs have crosses (Maiden or Knight), skulls (Bones), and spades (Ace). Retailing for $34.99 at EmpireBrandsInc.com, they have a shiny chrome finish and beefy 10mm drivers for thumping sound.
Do you feel lucky? These earbuds do!
Leave a comment here and one pair could be yours!

I don't know why, but God created me with ears that won't work with the standard Apple buds. They just fall right out. So, I really need these ones.

Those earbuds are over 9000...
I could seriously use those since my last pair of skullcandy earbuds were run over by a car (thus destroying them)

It's great to see that even in these hard times, there are still companies who will give things away! These look great and I could use some truly good buds. I haven't found a pair that work really good.....yet! I'll take 'um!

I could use some perfct little Wicked Buds for a wicked music lover. I have worn mine out. And also, the good earbuds are likened to stuffing marshmallows in your earholes. I like slim, trim, and slender. This way please <---- Frantically waving hands in the air.

Earbuds have a way of walking away on their own. It always seems like I'm trying to figure where they've walked off too.

I could really do with some new headphones, especially after my iPhone ones broke. Worth a try I guess (:

Apple's stock earbuds don't stay in place for me. A pair of Wicked's would be, well; "wicked"!
