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!

    The smell of my husband’s body wash. I don’t know what it is about it, but when he gets out of the shower, I’m on him like white on rice. I want to crawl into him when I smell it, which is totally not as crazy-obsessive as it sounds.

    A very close second is Creme Bouquet flavoring. It’s the most amazing smell…like a lemon drop…spun sugar and lemons. I use it to bake, but I like to take a good long whiff of it when I’m feeling down. It’s happiness in a 2oz bottle.

    My fave scent is currently lavender. It smells so sweet, so ethereal, so romantic ~ and as a bonus, it drives my hubby bonkers (he often wonders when did he die and wake up in an old lady’s boudoir!).

    Love your site ~ getting LOTS of ideas and inspiration from your adventures! Thank you!! <3<3<3

    A good cup of coffee brewing in the morning. (which always make me think of that 1980’s Folgers commercial where the son comes home for Christmas and surprises everyone by waking them up with Folgers. But Folgers does not equal good cup of coffee in my book. )
