Fab Freebie: Father Lowe’s Best

****This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

Having now been a father for one whole month (Happy 1- month birthday, Clara!) I’m totally psyched for this Sunday: my first Father’s Day. Another reason I’m psyched? Because our friends at Lowe’s have offered to help us celebrate Daddy Day with a handy gift guide mood board along with a totally testosterone-ready prize. So if you’re still scratching you head about what to get ol’ pops, here are a few ideas to get you started. And if you’re our lucky winner, you might just be covered entirely (for the next few years even):

Lowes Father's Moodboard

  1. What’s Father’s Day without tools? Kobalt 22 Piece Set ($50) is a great starter set if your guy happens to be tool-less. It covers all the basics, plus dad gets a tool bag to keep it all organized.
  2. If dad’s covered in the tool department, help him step it up a notch with a Kobalt 60 Piece Driver Set ($54) that has a bit for just about any job you can think of and then some.
  3. Now if you really want to splurge on pop this year, upgrade his workshop with a Kobalt 53” Tool Chest ($1798). It’s not your everyday tool storage space – it’s got a radio and mini fridge built in! Like woah.
  4. If tools aren’t his thing, help him tend to the yard with the Fiskars Momentum Reel Mower ($199) that we’re enjoying. It’s an eco-friendly way to mow, plus he’ll get a little extra workout in.
  5. Or hook him up with a Troy-Bilt String Trimmer ($100) to keep those edges in check. Bonus: he might just stop mowing over the flower beds.
  6. You can also send him on a power trip with the Porter Cable 4 Piece Combo Kit ($129) that’s got a cordless reciprocating saw, circular saw, drill and flashlight all powered by the same battery.
  7. But enough about gifts that put dad to work. What about letting him relax with a nice meal straight from the grill? This compact, but powerful 2-burner Char-Broil Urban Grill ($269) could do the trick.
  8. Lastly, if he’s like most guys and is just plain hard to shop for. You can never go wrong with a Lowe’s Gift Card, right?

If you read this morning’s post about my experience with the Fiskars Momentum mower, you already know that it’s part of this week’s prize.

What you don’t know is that this week’s winner is also gonna score #7 on our gift guide too. Yep, the Char-Broil Urban Grill is also making it’s way to one of you. That way you can spoil the dad in your life with a one-two punch of prizes (or split ’em up if you got a few fathers to pamper this year). Okay, and we wouldn’t blame you if you just kept ’em for yourself. Can’t beat nearly $500 in free stuff, right?

    “Happy Father’s Day Malcolm Jr.”

    Even though he is my nephew, he is a father figure to my son. My son can ask him anything and he gets wise advice.

    Happy Father’s Day Reggie! OMG this would be such a nice way to say “HFD” to my dad!! Despite the fact that I’m all married off now he’s never ceased to be there when I need him or to come all the way to South Carolina to help us with things around the house!!

    Happy Fathers’s Day, Mike! Thanks for loving all five of us kids- especially me, your favorite middle child! We appreciate all the books you’ve read, ice cream treats you’ve bought, cars you’ve fixed, and dorm rooms you’ve moved us in and out of. I can’t wait for you to walk me down the aisle next year!

    I can honestly say that one of the things I’m looking forward to most at the weddings is walking down the aisle with you.

    HAPPY FATHER’S DAY GREG!

    I had a baby end of April and my husband has been the most amazing dad and helper! He makes taking care of our little girl so easy because he is always quick to help out and do whatever needs doing. He is even the first one out of bed when she cries at night. I need to make this Father’s Day special for him because he is just so good at being a daddy!

    Happy Father’s Day to MY HUSBAND, who will find out this Father’s Day that he will be a dad for the first time! :-)

    HAPPY FATHERS DAY SWEET HUSBAND!!! My husband is the most amazing father to our little girl! He travels for a living, so he’s not home a lot, but when he is, he’s home 100% and helps out with our daughter. He’s probably changed more diapers and given more baths than I have! He’s a rare find and I’m so blessed!

    The kids and I are looking forward to visiting you in July. We are praying for a quick recovery so you can be at the lake house with us.

    Happy Father’s Day, Gary!!! My Dad has always supported me in life, always ready to listen or when I need it(which is daily!) he offers up some great advice. He is a true Mr. Fix-It. Absolutely nothing he can’t do! He has been renovating an entire kitchen for a year! Gutted the space and built it back up. He has worked hard and it is a gorgeous space the family will enjoy for years and years. He truly deserves to get extra spoiled this Father’s Day!

    Happy Father’s Day Dad! (Aka John.. but thats just weird to call him John – hes dad.) :)

    You’re the best Dad because you never grew up, and you passed on that wisdom to us – and as a family we genuinely still enjoy simple pleasures and Disney! Oh, and for being Tim the toolman Taylor and thus built in entertainment for the family as we watched you turbo charge everything in the house…. and then have to fix it later with duct tape. :) Love you!
