Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Easily Turned On

Fab Freebie: Easily Turned On

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

So you saw me install this puppy earlier today, and just as we promised we’re back to give you a shot at winning one of your own. The Delta Pilar kitchen faucet with Touch 2O Technology is pretty much any DIY-lover or enthusiastic chef’s best friend because, just as the commercial below demonstrates, you can wash paint, dirt, eggs, chicken goo or any other home-improvement or cooking related mess off of your hands without ever getting it on your purdy fixture.

We’ve actually had ours installed for a week now and I’ve found it extremely helpful even when doing simple tasks like the dishes (yes, I’m usually in charge of the dishes, but Sherry vacuums so it’s pretty fair around here). Rather than having to reach over to turn the handle on and off, I can interrupt the water by just quickly tapping the spout anywhere, and the technology’s even smart enough to know when you’re gripping the faucet to move it (as we do from basin to basin in our double sink) so it doesn’t interpret that maneuver as an on/off trigger. Consider us impressed.

For more info about how this baby works and how we got it installed, check out this morning’s post (and don’t forget to read through the comments where we address pretty much every detail that you can think of). And if you’re dying to get your grubby mitts on one of them, here’s how:

  • PRIZE: A Delta Pilar Pull-Down faucet with Touch 2O Technology in the finish of your choice (chrome or stainless)
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “TOUCH ME” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …spill the beans about some of your personal turn offs when it comes to the opposite sex. Poor hygiene? Too full of themselves? Obsessed with his or her chihuahua? Spill it –  but let’s try to keep things PG-ish if we can.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, February 10th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in North America
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    My biggest turnoff is a bad personality. If someone is too cocky or is mean-spirited, I just have to walk the other way. On the other hand, if you can make me laugh, I’m all your’s (well, technically, all my husband’s, but you guys know what I mean). ;)

    I’ve been married to long to really even notice turnoffs!! But back when I was dating I’d have to say the biggest tunoff I experienced was a “mama’s boy”! You all know what I’m talking about and why I’m not married to that guy now! ;)

    I’ve been married for almost 19 years, so I don’t spend a lot of time scoping out the opposite sex, but I would have to say bad hygeine would be the #1 turn off for me. Fortunately, my hubby showers and brushes his teeth on a regular basis, so it’s all good :)

    My husband drips water all over. Getting out of the shower he drips it on the toilet, shaving he gets it on the counter, fixing his hair he gets it on the mirror, doing dishes he gets it on the floor. We actually laugh at how much it bothers me.

    Snoring has to be a pet peeve. That and the toilet seat being left up. And the wet towels left in a clump on the rod. As well as being ok with sleeping without a pillowcase on the pillow….

    My personal turn off is the inability to make a decision. The last thing I feel like doing is deciding where YOU want to go to dinner. Ugh!

    Oh yea, and leaving the toilet seat up.

    TOUCH ME! What a GREAT faucet! I would have to say my biggest pet peeve is when my husband does not put a new trash bag in the trashcan. Don’t get me wrong, I am very grateful that he takes the trash out without having to be reminded, but is it really that difficult to put a new bag in? They are in the bottom of the trashcan for crying out loud.

    My biggest and usually first turnoff is teeth. People don’t need to have perfect teeth, but they should appear clean and as white as possible. Crooked teeth can sometimes be overlooked. The worst is when teeth are missing or there is visible fuzz or decay.

    My biggest turn off for anyone, regardless of gender is ignorance & conceit. I loathe when people think they’re just better than everyone else, especially when they have no idea what they’re talking about. It drives me crazy. I usually see this more in guys, but I’ve run across quite a few girls in this catagory as well, so I know it goes both ways. Either way, I’m not going to be spending lots of time with you if you’re so close-minded and think you’re the awesomest thing to walk the face.

    Farting. Hands down my biggest turn off. I wonder to this day how it’s possible I met, dated and married my husband and never heard him fart. Now that we’re married – different story!

    I have to say – winning this faucet for our new, soon to be installed counter tops would be a real turn on…
