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!! I have a lot of favorite smells, but the one my family has is when we first open a can of coffee. It’s pathetic but even my kids gather when we pop the top of the can and get the first smell of it being opened. Which is funny because I don’t like to drink it.

    I don’t really want to share my favorite smell. Instead I would like to share that I am loving the laser level thing. Maybe in a slightly inappropriate way.

    I used to to have a go-to fragrance, but it was discontinued. Does that mean other people don’t like it as much as I do? :-)

    I have an very keen nose. I am all over the place and love way too many scents: honey, lilies, horse manure (yea, I am a freak!), damp forest, bergamot, clean sheets, fresh baked bread, the beach and salt marshes.

    Others have said this but I love my little boy after a bath or when he’s just woken up from a nap. I’m lucky that he loves to cuddle after both so I have the chance to really drink him in.

    Now that I am pregnant I have had so many different smells turn me off. My husband’s son lives with us while he goes to school, and I can smell if he has taken a shower that day! Gross when he does not. I love the smell of my husband’s aftershave and cologne. I can tell when he shaves before I even see him because the bathroom smells just like him!
