***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
Thanks to random.org’s trusty randomness, we’ve got our winner and it is… Gretchen B (whose husband is “a mastermind with wood. He can make almost anything, at times he has surprised himself at what he canters up.”). That sounds familiar. Congrats Gretchen!
Sorry this post is a few minutes late (380 pages of book proofing = crazytown). But Happy Almost Father’s Day everyone! To help us celebrate, Home Depot is giving away an $100 man card, er, gift card so one lucky reader gets a fast and easy way to show their handy hubby/dad/uncle/brother/grandpa/neighbor how much they care… or how much they really want them to finish that project. Home Depot’s also throwing in a RYOBI 18V ONE+ Lithium Ion Compact Drill Kit (valued at $150) because no tool collection is complete without a power drill and driver. Plus this one weighs less than three pounds and the battery lasts four times longer than your everyday battery. So guys, I’ll guess we’ll all have to come up with another excuse to take a break from our to-do lists.
- PRIZE: A $100 Home Depot gift card and a RYOBI 18V ONE+ Lithium Ion Compact Drill Kit
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what’s the “manliest” quality of the person you’re celebrating this coming weekend. Do you admire your dad’s ability to fix anything? Do you just love seeing the father of your children with a little bit of stubble? Or maybe the way your brother plays with your nieces earns him major guy-points in your book?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 13th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
- 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 for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Home Depot.

Deborah Nowland says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY! The manliest thing about my husband, the father of my children, is his work ethic. He ALWAYS works hard. Many people have commented that he is the hardest worker they have ever known. We appreciate how hard he works to take care of ALL of us! (For three years we had four generations living under one roof – and he supported all of us…)
Leslie says
Happy Father’s Day!
I love that my husband makes sure we hear him say “i love you” to us (me and our son) every single day. I really admire that because while it is something I obviously feel all the time, continuously saying it out loud is just not my nature.
Betsy says

asked! Also he keeps himself in tip top shape! (unlike me!)

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY! The manliest thing about my hubby is how he is new at the home repairs and house project but is becoming a pro and letting the little boys “help”! Love it!
kathy h says
HAPPY FATHERS DAY!
The manliest thing about my hubby is when he is “taking care” of me or the kids. For example, when he takes care of my car by washing it, fixing it, or just filling up the tank. He is also very manly when, if there is a loud, strange noise in the middle of the night, he jumps up out of bed and goes to check it out. I even love it when he helps me take care of any bugs I may find in the house.

Marlo says
Happy Father’s Day! I love how my dad answers my calls even when he’s crazy busy and he knows I’m just going to ask a question about how to fix something. He always makes time for his little girl!

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!
After watching my husband demolish our entire 70’s slate tile fireplace with one of those demolition hammers while looking like a madman, I was pretty convinced of his manliness!
Amber H says
Happy Fathers Day! The manliest thing about my husband is that he’s and amazing father and a jack of all trades. Anything from fixing things, to tooling leather, to photography, he prides himself in knowing the skill backwards and forwards.
Ashley Christy says
Happy father’s day! The manliest thing about my husband is how amazing of a father he is.
Laurendy says
“HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!” The “manliest” thing about my dad is his inability to ask for directions – either when lost or when putting something together. . . and as a girl, it’s hard for me admit that I’ve too taken on that “manish” trait.
Briton C says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!
