Fab Freebie: Father Lowe’s Best

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

Having now been a father for one whole month (Happy 1- month birthday, Clara!) I’m totally psyched for this Sunday: my first Father’s Day. Another reason I’m psyched? Because our friends at Lowe’s have offered to help us celebrate Daddy Day with a handy gift guide mood board along with a totally testosterone-ready prize. So if you’re still scratching you head about what to get ol’ pops, here are a few ideas to get you started. And if you’re our lucky winner, you might just be covered entirely (for the next few years even):

Lowes Father's Moodboard

  1. What’s Father’s Day without tools? Kobalt 22 Piece Set ($50) is a great starter set if your guy happens to be tool-less. It covers all the basics, plus dad gets a tool bag to keep it all organized.
  2. If dad’s covered in the tool department, help him step it up a notch with a Kobalt 60 Piece Driver Set ($54) that has a bit for just about any job you can think of and then some.
  3. Now if you really want to splurge on pop this year, upgrade his workshop with a Kobalt 53” Tool Chest ($1798). It’s not your everyday tool storage space – it’s got a radio and mini fridge built in! Like woah.
  4. If tools aren’t his thing, help him tend to the yard with the Fiskars Momentum Reel Mower ($199) that we’re enjoying. It’s an eco-friendly way to mow, plus he’ll get a little extra workout in.
  5. Or hook him up with a Troy-Bilt String Trimmer ($100) to keep those edges in check. Bonus: he might just stop mowing over the flower beds.
  6. You can also send him on a power trip with the Porter Cable 4 Piece Combo Kit ($129) that’s got a cordless reciprocating saw, circular saw, drill and flashlight all powered by the same battery.
  7. But enough about gifts that put dad to work. What about letting him relax with a nice meal straight from the grill? This compact, but powerful 2-burner Char-Broil Urban Grill ($269) could do the trick.
  8. Lastly, if he’s like most guys and is just plain hard to shop for. You can never go wrong with a Lowe’s Gift Card, right?

If you read this morning’s post about my experience with the Fiskars Momentum mower, you already know that it’s part of this week’s prize.

What you don’t know is that this week’s winner is also gonna score #7 on our gift guide too. Yep, the Char-Broil Urban Grill is also making it’s way to one of you. That way you can spoil the dad in your life with a one-two punch of prizes (or split ’em up if you got a few fathers to pamper this year). Okay, and we wouldn’t blame you if you just kept ’em for yourself. Can’t beat nearly $500 in free stuff, right?

    Happy Father’s Day Daddy!! You are the best father a girl could ask for. And, you are the best Papa to my girls!

    One of my fondest childhood memories is of my Dad taking us to the park to feed the squirrels. We’d take peanuts out there and the squirrels would come right up to you and take them out of your hands. My daughters (ages 5 and 3) now love to go to the park and feed the squirrels with their Papa. :)

    Happy father’s day, Bumper!

    This year, I plan to honor my grandfather by taking him to the shipyard where his naval boat was built, and showing him the road into it, which was just named the USS Amesbury after the ship he served on during WWII.

    Happy Father’s Day, Sonny!!! Thanks for teaching me at a young age to care for the environment. I used to hate washing out all our recyclables, especially peanut butter jars..errr. But now it makes me feel good to be environmentally conscious and I always think of you and smile whenever I’m washing out peanut butter jars ;)

    Happy Father’s Day Shelby!!! I love how Shelby isn’t afraid to help me cook, clean, change diapers, pick kids up, and take the kids where I need them even if these jobs aren’t the most “manly” thing to do. He is always there for me and I’m grateful that he works so hard for our family which allows me to stay home with our four wonderful children. Thanks for everything Shelby. I’d marry you all over again!

    “HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TOBIN!” I’m celebrating my husband because he’s the best. Unfortunately, he’s away this Father’s Day on a work trip, but this would make an excellent return gift from me and the girlies!

    HAPPY FATHER’S DAY DAD! This is actually the first Father’s Day with my dad since he had a stroke last year. I’m so thankful that he’s still around! And although he wouldn’t probably be able to use the mower, he has been asking for a new grill…so perfect!

    HAPPY FATHERS DAY! Paul Parker I have not spoken with my real dad in YEARS (8-9). As Father’s Day is rounding the corner I wonder how many of us kids are in that same position. We may be justified in that decision, an act of self preservation of ourselves or of our sanity. “Dad” may have done us a grave injustice, or maybe he has a horrible fault…However, I am now coming to terms with the possibility and hope that nothing will change a difficult situation like MY forgiveness. I can remember as a kid thinking that my dad was awesome! He could make ANYTHING with wood, from commissioned Queen-Anne furniture to fully custom homes. He loved taking us fishing and did his best, the way he knew. Somewhere along the way life became complicated and we started looking at his faults and imperfections rather than who he was trying to be… Don’t get me wrong those faults were pretty substantial and left deep wounds. However, this year I think that I am ready to try to accept him for who he is.. a fallible man, yes… but most importantly my Dad. Whatever he does or does not do, he is still the Dad that God gave me.

    LOL This may not be appropriate for your blog, but it sure felt good to get out! Thanks
