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 the smell of freshly cut grass. GAP even had a scent like it about 8 or 9 years ago when they had their dream, om, etc scents…I think it was called grass and I loved it.

    CHANNEL ME! I have one perfume Falling in Love by Philosophy which I wear occasionally because it is vanilla-y and light. Personal scents aside: I’m so easily hypnotized by the smell of italian food and sea air.

    Being a Kindergarten teacher, one of my favorite scents is a new box of crayons in September when school starts. But I have an indulgent more relaxing favorite spa scent, and that is L’Occitane’s Verbena – Just so soothing after a restless day of teaching!

    I am a new addict of your blog, thank you for your posts! They have already been helpful to our new home!!

    My hunny has a crazy sensitive sniffer, smelling EVERYTHING – whether pleasant or not so pleasant. His dream is to find and/or create a cilantro scented candle. I do love cilantro, but not sure if I’d want that smell wafting through my house :)

    My favorite scent is some knockoff, cheapo air freshener that my mom has. We used to use it around Christmas, and now I get in the holiday spirit no matter what time of year it is when I smell it!

    CHANNEL ME! I usually stick to clean cotton or fresh linen type scents for my home but as for perfume I stick to Ralph Lauren Wild or Sungaria (from Maurices) which i’ve been wearing a lot because, to me, it smells like sunshine. All time favorite smell though? bonfire/woodsmoke has to be it, there’s really nothing like the smell of sitting around a bonfire in the fall

    No favorite smells really, there’s this violet baby hair cologne I grew up with (it’s a Cuban thing) which is pretty soothing and brings back good memories. I still use it from time to time.
