Are you happy with the headphones you use on a daily basis? As you are probably aware, Best Buy sells pretty much every style and brand of headphone available. One of those is the focus of this contest: Happy Plugs. Best Buy is giving away six sets of these headphones in this contest. But first you must ask yourself: what does a headphone have to do to make you happy?

Situations in which Happy Plugs might make you happy

Consider my number one use case for wearing headpones: I commute daily. Trains and buses take me to work, then home. They are noisy; that makes me unhappy. My earbuds block out a lot of that noise and replace it with music or audio from a Netflix show—which makes me happy. I arrive at work in the morning or home in the evening more relaxed than I would without headphones.

There are many situations that other people might cite as similar examples. Perhaps you are one of the millions of people who like to wear headphones while cleaning. Some people like house cleaning itself. (Zak spoke of this in his recent contest article for the Dyson V11 vacuum we are giving away on the blog.) Others prefer to use that time to listen to a podcast or music on headphones: that’s what makes them happy while they clean.

I sent a set of these to reviewer Darren Blakeborough and he loved how these looked and felt. I guess you could say Happy Plugs made him happy. Here is his video review of these headphones:

  1. on my commute, when I’m at the computer, and doing my exercises and housework (which I hate – the music makes them easier to tolerate).

  2. I’m always on the bus so I love to listen to music .I get uncomfortable around alot of ppl.it helps me relax also I love to listen to music before bed its calming:)

  3. I need these for my husband for when I’m trying to sleep and he wants to watch tv in the middle of the night!

  4. When I am doing mundane tasks like chores around the house. Listening to music or podcast makes it that much more enjoyable.

  5. When I travel to work and home in a busy rush hour commute, I’m in my own world when I have my ear buds on.

  6. Seems like I’m getting a bit hard if hearing, putting earphones directly to my ears will help me listen to music etc a lot easier

  7. Could use phone as a husband likes to watch his wrestling and sometimes I like to watch a program or listen to music so I would put them in doing that.

  8. I would want to win because I have problems in class and music helps me be calm and be more comfortable in class. My headphone that I’m using get in my way or I accidentally pull on it and then it hurts my ears

  9. Headphones make me happy when random people on the TTC talk way too loudly and I can drown out their voices with some soothing tunes.

  10. Headphones make me happy because when I put them on I am immediately immersed in whatever I am listening to- music, meditations, audio books- and real world stress and anger disappear for as long has I’m listening!

  11. Headphones make me happy at work when I use them to listen to music and the radio while working.

  12. I am always happy when listening to music, it’s my hobby! Listening to music while working makes me less stressed

  13. When I walk I listen to music, it calms me and reduces stress and walking is good for my soul! Thanks for the chance to win!

  14. Hey,

    Headphones are required to make our life better as it connects us to the part of world we like and enjoy . It connects us to the close people who are far away from us because of work , education or responsibilities .

    I am in need a headphone because i have not tried a wireless still . I watch people enjoying without caring about the wires falling off again and again . Especially when we do running or jogging .

  15. I use headphones when I’m watching Netflix while making dinner (shows I don’t want the kids hearing). Wireless would make my life a lot easier, no more cords getting caught on things!

  16. Headphones make me happy when I’m trying to sleep and my roommate is snoring. I just put them on, turn on my music and go to my happy place

  17. At work! I’d put them on and play my tunes… I get brought to my own world and still stay productive!
