***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
I’m not even going to dance around this one: we’ve got a $200 Home Depot gift card up for grabs.
This week’s stellar prize comes direct from Home Depot themselves as part of their “What’s Your Pro Project” contest. But the good ol’ HD isn’t just asking about your upcoming heavy duty projects, they’re looking to lend a hand too. Thanks to their 1,200 local Tool Rental Centers, you can borrow over 325 professional tools, from power and hand tools to yard, garden and electrical equipment. Sure beats buying that aerator you only use once a year.
So if you want a shot at the $200 gift card, first check out their selection of tool rentals and then comment on this post with the phrase “GOTTA GET A [insert name of tool you’d most like to rent].” That’s right, to be eligible for the prize you have to tell us what tool you’d consider renting AND what project you might tackle with it (sorry folks, we’ve gotta be sticklers on this one). For instance, I’ve already been daydreaming about renting a powerwasher to do some heavy duty clean-up on our front porch. Plus, who doesn’t like cleaning and looking like a badass at the same time? If only I could powerwash the dishes…
Alas, we’re not eligible for the prize (soooooo jealous of you guys), but at least we get to hear about all your power tool fantasies and the pro projects you might be tackling soon. Entries will be accepted until Wednesday, March 25th at 8pm EST and the prize is only available to United States residents. The one, randomly selected winner will be announced later in the week. Good luck…
Any other questions you may have are answered in our Giveaway FAQs. Screen grabs courtesy of Home Depot Tool Rental Centers.

Gotta get a pressure washer. Our back deck is filthy. But a drum sander to redo the worn wood floors is mighty attractive too.
Sean says
GOTTA GET A Mk Diamond Tile Saw. We rented one when we re-did the counter tops of our kitchen and I am getting in the mood to do some floor and wall tile demo and then to re-tile it (along with putting a new doorway) into our bathroom. It was so much fun to slice through ceramic tile with a diamond blade sprayed with water that I think I want to just cut tile as much as I want to renovate our main bathroom in our condo. MORE…MORE POWER!!!!

Gotta get a pressure washer! We bought a house last summer, and are now in the middle of trying to give it some more curb appeal. It’s a beautiful tan and white house, but needs some sprucing up and a good wash! We could have used this when my husband rented an aerator a few weeks ago to tackle the yard! :) Thanks for the giveaway!

Gotta get a Vibratory Plate Compactor! This is timely because my husband and I have been talking about turning the sad little scrubby area behind our house into a paver patio.
