The holidays are over, and if you’re anything like me you’ve probably got dozens, if not hundreds, of digital photos stored on your computer right now. If you’re also like me, you probably worry from time to time about losing them. Backing them up to CDs can be time consuming and tedious with much of the software I’ve tried.
So I was thrilled when Picture Keeper sent me their little gadget to try. It’s a fantastically simple way to safeguard irreplaceable digital photos. You just plug the little USB device into your computer, and it does all the work for you. It finds all of the pictures stored on your computer and saves them safely to the device. The next time you plug it in, it only pulls in new photos so you never had to worry about duplicates! You can even schedule back up reminders on their site, which this busy mom definitely needs.
The Picture Keeper comes in two sizes, 4GB which holds 4,000 pictures and 8GB which holds 8,000 pictures. If you’re not sure which size you would need to store your photos, check out their tutorial.
Through January Picture Keeper is offering readers $15 off with the code DealForMoms. This makes the 4GB Picture Keeper only $25! I think that’s a price well worth the peace of mind that comes from knowing my photos are secure outside of my computer (assuming one of the kiddos doesn’t run off with the device, LOL).
Better yet, Picture Keeper has graciously given me an 8GB Picture Keeper to give away to one lucky Deal Seeking Mom Reader. I love it when companies let me share these fabulous products with you all!

I have so many pictures and so many ideas for them all – scrapbooks, collages, and framing, but i really treasure the ones of family members that are no longer with us. Thanks for this great and motivating giveaway.

Need to start backing up….
wishing!
I have been visiting daily for weeks now and love your site! I am now signed up for E-Mail. I wished I had our pics backed up about a year ago when we “mysteriously” lost about three years worth of pictures. My wife and I are still devastated! It would be nice to ensure that didn’t happen again. (Fingers crossed)
Jennifer Wittrock
I would put all my pics on, but especially the ones from the hospital with both of my children were born.

I have three precious grandchildren, two of which joined us just this last November. They do not live near me, so their photos are even more precious as that is what I have to keep track of them!!!! I’d store photos of them on the storage device!!
Sheila
My husband and I were married in Las Vegas. So the only wedding pics we have are digital. I don’t know what I would do if something happened to those pictures!

We’re headed to Ethiopia in just 3 weeks to pick up our new daughter!! Those pictures of her first home would be the ones I’d want to make sure I had forever and ever!
Melissa
I would store the last pictures I have of DD (18 months old) and hubbby before he deployed a few weeks ago. I would also store the few pictures I have of him holding her as a new born since he only got to spend 2 weeks with her before he had to go back to Iraq the first time. I don’t have a blog, but I did post about your site a few days ago on a forum I am on. Here is the link https://momsoms.com/showthread.php?t=14423
Thanks for offering this as a give away.
