Congrats to Elden W. of Portland, Oregon, for winning two Nuyu activity trackers plus a Nuyu wireless scale last week. Is that a Bluetooth speaker in your pocket or are you just happy to see another Crave giveaway? Both, it turns out.

This week, we've got a Pocket Party, a pocket-size Bluetooth speaker with a colorful integrated light show that syncs with the music being played. The light show can be controlled at the touch of the button via the speaker itself or its mobile or Web app.

The splash-proof little speaker promises big sound and has an expandable chamber to amplify its output. It comes with a suction cup, carabiner and bike-mount strap so you can take it anywhere.

7x24 Technologies, the startup that makes the $49.99 speaker, is currently running a flexible-funding Indiegogo campaign and says it will get discounted units into early backers' hands by the holidays. This is your chance to get one even earlier, for free, in the color of your choice. How? There are a few rules, so please keep reading.
