Fab Freebie: Channel No. 125

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

Random.org has done it again and selected our winner as… Chelsea (who loves the smell of coffee in the morning). Congrats!

The only fragrance we’re giving away this week is that of sweat and elbow grease (yummy, right?). Because this week’s prize comes from Channellock, who not only makes some of our favorite tools but is also celebrating 125 years of forging them right here in the USA. So they’re giving away 1 + 2 + 5 tools (that makes 8, btw) to one soon-to-be-sweaty guy or gal. That lucky lady or lad will be getting a five-piece Tool Roll, two Ratcheting Wrenches and one Professional Laser Level. Can’t ya just smell those projects in your future?

Channellock Giveaway

  • PRIZE: Channellock’s Tool Roll #3, Ratcheting Wrenches and Professional Laser Level (a $173 value)
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CHANNEL ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about your favorite smell. Do you have a go-to perfume or cologne? Are you a sucker for a particular type of scented candle? Or will you admit to something stranger like burnt popcorn, gasoline, or egg salad?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, August 10th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: All Fifty 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 morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics courtesy of Channellock.

Bonus Freebie: Hey Richmonders – we’ve got a local prize for you over on our Facebook page (you might have to scroll a bit to find it – just look for the elephant). You can enter to win a pair of tickets to next week’s ASID White Elephant Designer Auction right here in RVA!

    I love love love the smell of vanilla and chai. Vanilla chai is quite possibly the warmest and most welcoming smell in my home, not to mention lattes from Starbucks are just divine!

    P.S. Love your blog! and oh my goodness look at Clara grow! I could hardly believe it when I saw her standing in her new gorgeous closet.

    I’m obsessed with food smells. Vanilla is definitely my fave, but I also love cinnamon and citrus and peach.

    My favorite smell is early autumn rain. Something about the leaves and the water and (in my rural hometown) the woodsmoke from the burn piles just makes me feel completely content. :)

    And my favorite smell is kinda odd. I love the smell of babies. I love to cuddle my son and hold him close and just breathe in that wonderful, amazing baby smell. I know someday he’s gonna be a stinky teenager, but babies just smell AMAZING so I’m making hay while the sun shines. SO thats me being weird: Imma baby sniffer. LOL But seriously – next time you get to hold a little one (provided they are not currently pukey or poopy or anything else malodorous) take a sniff, they smell WONDERFUL. :)

    I’m allergic to most scents, but not vanilla. In fact, my sister, who teaches high school, now has a kid in her class I used to babysit when she was 4 or 5 (yep, I’m getting old). My sister asked her if she remembered me, and she said she remembers I always smelled like vanilla.

    I actually have a terrible sense of smell. I have a hard time distinguishing scents. This has served me well since we had our son, though, because my husband is the one to smell the dirty diapers, not me, so he usually ends up dealing with them :)

    I don’t like perfume but my favorite normal smells are cinniamon, baby powder and lavender (not together of course).
    For weird smells, I love the smell of car engine oil and grease and all that. My husband is a mechanic and he cracks up everytime he comes in after working on a car and I tell him how good he smells.
