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!

    Channel Me! My fav happens to be the perfume my Nana and Mom both used. I don’t know the name of it, only that it comes in a frosted pink bottle with a pink lid and is probably from some semi-box store. Anytime I smell it, it brings back great Mother memories!

    I love so many smells it’s not even funny… I could occupy and hour just opening a candle or perfume and smelling it, then closing it, and repeating over and over again. But my favorite candle is Yankee Candle Lemon Lavendar- smells clean and sweet at the same time!

    So funny you ask about fragrances. I’ve been wanting Jessica Simpson’s Fancy Love for over a year but just couldn’t bring myself to pay full price for it ($60 – I know it’s not that high, but I’m pretty cheap)… UNTIL… I ran across it just last Friday for $25 at ROSS!!!! So excited!!!

    I know it’s weird but I love the smell of fresh vinyl. Like the kind that cheap inflatable pool toys are made out of. It must be linked to happy memories of summer as a kid.

    On a side note, I would be thrilled to win this giveaway because I borrowed my husbands adjustable pliers to unscrew a very stuck hose from the faucet in the backyard. I then left the pliers on the patio table where they got caught in a thunderstorm and became thoroughly rusted in an ALARMINGLY short period of time (thank you humid Maryland summer). I think I owe him a pair or two of new pliers.

    We had a traveling perfume sales lady (for real…in 2002!) come in to the car dealership where I worked after school when I was in high school and I bought a bottle from her. After I ran out of it, I couldn’t find the replacement anywhere and now love Miss Dior Cherie…
