Fab Freebie: Tek For Dads

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

According to random.org, the winner this week is… Kat (who celebrated Father’s Day with cards, dinner for her husband and a called to her dad). Congrats!

In honor of Father’s Day (yes, I realize it was yesterday, but why not keep the celebration alive?) we’re giving away – you guessed it – TOOLS. But these particular tools are Ryobi TEK4 tools, a series of ten cordless gadgets that look pretty darn sleek, are crazy durable, and run on a long-lasting 4V rechargeable battery. And come to think of it, ladies would look just as good slinging these guys (so they’re not just for dads). We picked our three most go-to devices from the TEK4 line and are giving them (plus an extra battery and charger) to one lucky guy or gal this week. So without further ado, your trio of tools: the Self-Leveling Plumb / Cross Laser, the Professional Stud Sensor, and the Compact Drill / Driver (and the handy battery they all share).

Ryobi Tek4 Giveaway

  • PRIZE: The three Ryobi TEK4 tools shown above, plus extra battery and charger.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “TEK ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … share with us what you did you celebrate Father’s Day yesterday. A special breakfast? A family dinner? A card from your dog (Burger makes me one every year). Maybe just a phone call to say “hello” to someone special? Or was yesterday just your average Sunday?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 22th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The contiguous 48 United States
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers. See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Ryobi.

    We had church with a dinner following, in honor of all the awesome dads! Hubby won one of the door prizes – a sweet Playmate “The Boss” Cooler! Then we chilled at home for a bit, before heading out to the beautiful beach (the #1 in the US – yeah baby!) for some fun in the sun & surf, and be a spectator at the weekly Sun night drumcircle. Then we topped of the day with a yummy dinner with my amazing Father-in-law!

    I drove two hours down to where my dad lives, gave him his presents (a wonderful assortment of color-coordinated boat gear…I couldn’t help trying to pimp his new ride), and then took his new-to-him boat out for a spin (or float, I guess) and put all the presents to the test. It was a great day, since there is nothing better than doing something we both love, together! :)

    I sent an email to my dad in Nepal, then spent the day with good family friends.. We enjoyed the day by eating both lunch and dinner outside under tall trees with a beautiful view over Lancaster County farmland!

    And I could definitely use some power tools, living in an apartment and trying to make it look like home!

    I live far from my family, but got a card in the mail early last week and followed up with a phone call to both my Dad and Grandpa. My Dad is getting into sailboats lately and recently bought a kit to turn his kayak into one (whatever floats your boat, I say) (pun!) I ordered a little make your own sailboat model kit and it should be on it’s way to him now.

    TEK Me! We were on our way home to Iowa from your neck of the woods…Fredericksburg. We were vacationing out east with my husband’s family (2 sisters, 1 brother, dad, nephew, niece and our family of 5). I thought about you guys often and had I not had the entourage I would have had hubby bring me to Richmond to meet you. I have been reading your blog for about a year and a half and LOVE it!
