Squatty Potty Giveaway

May 17, 2012 by Toad 82 Comments

Update: This giveaway is now over. Who is the winner? Find out here.

The modern toilet is kicking your ass.

The Squatty Potty will save you. And, guess what? I am giving one away.

Have you ever seen a dog poop? My Boston Terrier will sniff around the yard to find the perfect spot and then squat. While pooping, he taps his feet to the ground a few times. After about 10 to 15 seconds he is done.

How long do you find yourself sitting on the toilet?

I bet it’s longer than 10 to 15 seconds. I’m not saying it’s supposed to take us that quick. However, I think that we should be done in less than a minute. If we truly squatted like we have been for tens of thousands of years up until very recently, then all it would take is a minute.

Sean Croxton is very enthusiastic about poop. I’m on my way. Why? It’s important folks. It’s a key indicator to your overall health.

Watch his Poopin 2.0 video. It get’s interesting at 1:33…

You need to start squatting.

No one expects you to squat in your own yard, let alone someone else’s yard. So, what is the solution? You can find something simple to raise your feet on. Or, if you so choose, you can get more stylish and order the Squatty Potty. It will fit snuggly with your toilet so it looks nice.

Do you want to win one? To enter, leave a comment below telling me why you want the Squatty Potty. On Sunday, May 20, I will choose one lucky winner at random. The winner will be announced later that day.

For a second entry, subscribe to my email list. Leave a comment telling me you did.

If you have any questions then contact me via email.

About Toad

Is my name Todd or Toad? I'm a world traveler seeking true wellness. I'm not a fan of labels but the following describe me best: minimalist, foodie, entrepreneur, adventurer, writer, cook.

Teresa

Ok, I’d love one cuz I’m tired of cleaning the footprints off the toilet seat from my potty-training kids.
Anthony

Love to have one of these! After hearing about this from Sean, I know my family of four would put it to good use! Thanks for the giveaway, Toad!
Monique

Because I’m tired of tripping over the copy-paper box that I use as a squatty potty in my tiny bathroom.
Nicole

I am also a poop enthusiast. Wait, that didn’t come out right – no pun intended…or was it…? I also don’t want stuff backing up to where it shouldn’t go! I would be honoured to be the proud owner of a Squatty Potty.

Brandi

My family needs one so we can finally feel like we took a great poo!!
Torey

I’d like one so my in laws will feel even more awkward when they visit!
Amanda

I have a son who battles with bathroom troubles. I used to try having him put his feet up on something, this would be much better.
Leah

I want one so my poop comes out smooooth as butter
Max Gazzara

Sabrina

I live with & take care of my elderly parents. Mom is 78, has Parkinson’s and has dealt with “elimination issues” for most of her life. It has only gotten worse and more difficult with age. As we are speaking candidly about poop, I, as her caretaker, have to give her enemas and suppositories at least twice a week. This is NOT something I enjoy (being a caretaker was not where I pictured I would be at this point in my life…I’m supposed to be working full time, furthering my career & supporting my 2 kids as a single mom. Instead, I sacrificed a lot to become a careteaker). I know that using a stool has been helpful for my own personal use. I am hoping that with a Squatty Potty, she may find some relief from her chronic issues. It sounds like such a simple solution! And it would “relieve” me of enema & suppository “doodys” (heeheehee…didja get my puns?? Didja? Pretty clever, huh?) Anyway, I hope you pick me. Thanks for listening. Happy pooping!
Helen Levashoff

I would love to have one of these, just for the conversations it will start! LOL
Rachael

My physical therapist told me about these and the benefits of squatting in general! I’d love to win one!
Kimelah

I wanna freak out my 16yo daughter! ;P
Also, I would use it, for sure! Raises the knees nicely to rest the book on. Oh, wait a minute, won’t have TIME to read even a paragraph!
Still want it, though!
Jen

My husband wants to win this because he has issues in the potty department and is willing to try something new!
Ana

I’ve wanted a squatty potty for months! I’ve tried squatting to go to the bathroom, and it truly does make things go more smoothly. Having one of these things would be so much easier than precariously balancing on the seat.
postermama (Sandy)

I want one because I think it’s a super great idea. Every home should have one.
Joellen

I would love to have one of these because it helps us use modern conveniences but also allow our bodies to work the way they’re designed. It sounds like Sabrina really needs this more than I do though.
Carl

I’d linke one so that I can perfect my pooping form.
Tanya

Hubby was just complaining about how fast we whip through tp! This would be great to have!!
Amanda G.

I have been dealing with hemorrhoid issues for the past ten years, since my youngest child was born. I would love to win this to give me some relief…but in the meantime I’m going to hunt up a proper size box and see how much that might help!
Joanne D

I need one cuz hubby will only squat to take a dump!
Shawn Lawton

I would love one of these simply because it makes total sense to me!
Gem Ross

I just celebrated one year of Paleo. Last year at this time I went to urgent care in a lot of pain. The CT Scan revealed that I had an inflammed,infected intestine filled with fluid. Shortly after my diagnosis I began eating Paleo. A year later I am a completely different and much healthier me. I am gluten intolerant and wheat allergic none of which I would have ever known if I had not gone through this. I reversed my condition lowered my blood pressure,blood sugar and BMI by ten and I lost 65 pounds. I think.this would be a great graduation gift.
James

I would love to freak my fiance out with this! She can’t even discuss potty issues, but I know would eventually try it if it was in the bathroom

Also subbed to list.
Edward Cantrell

I would love one as I need one for safety reason so I don’t slip off the seas because it is not wide enough to squat safely… Also don’t want to break the seat or get my shoe or feet dirty if I lift seat up… I believe this Squatty Potty would do the job I need to do in the bathroom that is poop safely!

Seems interesting
Ser

Just because most of the world squats to potty doesnt mean i should be deprived
Shayne

I need one because I only poop once a week without “assistance”. It’s uncomfortable and bad for my weight and I’m sure it’s bad for my health as well.
Heather

I would really love this because… I haven’t had a BM in 9 days. I need this to help me get back to normal!!
Jim

Because it’s the most Primal thing I’ve ever seen.
Terri

That is awsome, we need one!!
Amanda B

I would like one because I know it is better for your body, will cause less strain.
Amanda B

I am already subscribed to Primal Toad emails, does that count

Thnx, Joellen

Let me save you all some money and embarrassment in bathroom furnishings–here’s a little trick I learned about bladder-emptying: LEAN FORWARD! When going, lean so far forward that your chest nearly ends up in your lap, and this will accomplish the same thing the Squatty Potty does, but in a different configuration…kinda like Grok squatted over the backside of a log out in the woods. All you’re trying to do is straighten out the curve at the very end of your colon–the rectum. The same is true for urination to completely empty your bladder.

If you absolutely feel you must put your feet up, then use a small kitchen footstool (which will cost a whole lot less than the Squatty contraption).

The positioning of the bladder, rectum, and our sinuses are the only things that haven’t evolved with the rest of us, so we have to make adjustments for them: lean forward in the bathroom, and tip your head all the way back when blowing your nose to clean out your sinuses.
Sarah Kurpel

I would loooooove a squatty potty. First, I’m potty training two boys- second, after two boys my bathroom muscles could use a break. Finally, as a yoga teacher, I love these types of simple machines to help get people back to how our bodies should operate.

Hey Todd

I have always wanted one of these! I love breaking through the walls of conventional wisdom and working WITH my body rather than against it.

Having suffered issues such as fissures, anything to ease the excretion process is helpful

You’re sh*ttin’ me! This would be so awesome to have! Back to nature…so to speak!

i would love to try out this “Squatty Potty”. XD

My partner and I loved the idea of a Squatty Potty from the instant we knew of its existence. In lieu of a disposable income, we have been taking the rotating computer stand from its desk into the bathroom with us for constitutionals — the idea and science behind it works! But the decidedly rectangular shape and lazy Susan-style spinning below our heels is a little less than perfect. If we could cobble, we’d certainly make one; alas, we are untrained in that utilitarian craft.

I have two grandkids who need this. Tired of poop in hteir pants
Lucy Heath

I’ve always struggled with digestion issues. This is something I’ve yet to try. If it can help me with bathroom problems, my life would be infinitely easier! Thanks Toad:)
Spencer

I would like one because I live in the U.S., and our toilets (just like everything else) just aren’t cutting it.
Tim

I want one just because.
Jennw3bbs

Been Primal since February and loving it! Would LOVE a squatty potty so I can stop using the step stool that takes up so much room in our super tiny bathroom.
http://standbyyourname.blogspot.com/ Yam Erez

I already have one on my Wish List, but no one seems to pay attention. For now I perch on the toilet seat, but eventually that won’t be an option. I’d love to win a SP.
William

I want to be able to drop off the Cosby kids without any problems! LOL

I’m entering because the two cinder blocks in my bathroom are playing hell on the linoleum.
James

Is like the squatty potty to quit using a stool to squat with which I have to take back & forth between two bathrooms. & I signed up for your email. Thanks
Adonna

At 70 yrs old things aren’t what they used to be. A Squatty Potty would be the answer to a long time problem.
Had to have fissure surgery in the past and don’t want to go through that again.
Edward

I would love a squatty potty because my feet get tired from being up on their types while I go. Everyone should do a better job of squatting
Loretta

I was precariously balancing on the toilet while 9 months pregnant so it would have been nice to have this!
Rebecca B

All of my family could use one of these. I’ve had issues all my life. Now my daughter is showing signs of the same problems. This would help us so very much. We’d love to have one! Thank you for the giveaway.

Been wanting one of these for awhile to help get the correct posture.
Kevin Raymond

To show people this awesome piece of equipment in order to freak them out, but make them think about how their pooping. Also…I would enjoy getting some good poops in on some bamboo!
Jeremy

Very interesting. Going to try.
Pistol P

I’m a Partist, a poop-artist. I relish everyday I sit on the throne of glory and relinquish yesterday’s troubles in food form with a good read in my hands. Now I don’t own a squatty potty, but owning one would make this sacred time of my day much more enjoyable and allow me not only to drop the kids off to pool (side meaning) in a more polite fashion, but also in decent timing. Like the true Primal Grok that I am, I can take care of business quickly and cleanly, then leave the man cave and take care of business in the real world. After killing 3 lions, 4 pigs and eating them like a boss/our ancestor, I will not have to worry about when they are returned to the Earth via my backside. I would really appreciate this tool to add to my repertoire of daily artistic movements. Yours Truly,
Pistol.

Teresa

So my family can believe I finally lost my mind and I release the poop from my life!
http://www.naturemoms.com/blog Tiffany (NatureMom)

I have been wanting something like this for about 5 years. I use a box like in the video but I think this would look better Anyway I am unabashed about poop myself after I got colon cancer at age 28. Now I will do what I need to do and share with everyone! Thanks for the chance!
Cory

I would love one because it gets pretty daunting to balance on my toilet seat, and i bet my wife would love it if I could take care of business a little faster!
Chris A

Im in for this.
Ursula

I would love to have a squatty potty because I believe it would relieve the numbness I feel in my legs when I sit for too long. Thanks!
musajen

Would love to have one of these! I’m tired of all the toilet paper I go through… would love to cut that bill down substantially. Plus, it’s totally weird and will make for interesting discussion when guests use the bathroom.
http://www.thewildernesschilde.com Deanna Eberlin

I want one because it’s kind of hard to explain that I don’t actually read the piles of books on either side of the toilet. I try not to be in there long enough to actually need to do any reading!

Just did a liver flush last week. Thought it would have made the job easier.

  Lol. So the liver flush did not help you? Try squatting. That will certainly help. Give it a few days if it does not work on your first try.
