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 just had my second son and we are taking lots of pictures so this would be great. THANKS!
Rhonda S.
Pictures of our family, of course! This was actually one of my New Year’s projects: to get my photos transferred to a jump drive and stored in a safe place, also freeing up some space on my computer! So this little gadget would be PERFECT.

My aunt and uncle had old tintype pictures from the late 1800’s. I was able to scan them in and there was a picture of my great-great-great grandparents. It was amazing how great the picture turned out. I would like to save those pictures for generations to come.
It’s such a connection to who you are when you see old pictures from the past.
Thanks to Picture Keeper for sharing with you so you could share with us!!
Beverly
This would certainly be for all the wonderful photos of our kids over the past couple years. These first few years is when they change so much almost daily.

The special picture on my hard drive is one of my family down on the boardwalk. The lighting is just right and it captured a perfect moment in time. Thanks for the giveaway.

I have taken many photos of family and friends over the years. Some of those folks have moved or are aging. I would love to have some additional storage to protect these photos.

I’ve got so many pictures from so many trips that I’ve taken with the youth from church. My favorites are the ones from our hikes in Rocky Mountain National Park. It’s not often that I get a picture of a bunch of kids from Texas playing in the snow!
Teresa Carmichael
Ever since my boy/girl twins were a year old, I have taken them to a nearby park and taken their picture in the leaves every fall. They are now 16, and those pictures are some of the most precious to me. I would definitly save them on the Picture Keeper!
