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 favorite perfume is a years old discontinued one from Crabtree and Evelyn. I’m rationing it out, but it makes me smell like sugar cookies, yum!

    I love the smell of… popcorn mixed with atomic fireballs. It smells like junior high basketball games to me, and is so nostalgic! (best smelled when accompanied by gym shoes squeaking on a wooden floor).

    I also love… the smell of play-doh :)

    I love the smell of any man wearing Acqua Di Gio by Armani!! I’m serious when I tell you I walk up to random guys and smell there shirts. I’m sure they probably think I’m a weirdo shirt smeller. But it’s so amazing. And I buy my husband a bottle for just about every holiday!

    I love the smell of fresh laundry right out of the dryer. For a little less conventional, it’s the smell of almond extract in the bottle.

    My odd favorite smell is (and let me preface this with I am NOT a smoker and I do not support smoking) but I love the first second a cigarette is lit. Just the first second, then after that it’s really gross.

    Normally, my favorite smell is lilac–it reminds me of the lilac bushes that my mom had in the backyard. Lately, pregnancy hormones have caused me to hate the smell of everything. It’s torturous.
