***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.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!
Hmmmmm….the manliest thing about my husband? It’s not how hot he looks in his military uniform or that he fixes things that I’ve broken. :) It’s how carefree he is when he’s playing with our son. He’s totally willing to make a fool of himself…it’s so endearing!

Happy Father’s Day!!!
The manliest thing about my father in law is that he just gets things done. 110 degrees out? still going to mow the lawn. Worked 20 days in a row? still going to retile the bathroom. Broke an ankle? still going to paint the foyer – all 2.5 stories of it.
The man is a machine that just wont stop. If only i had 1/2 of his “dont rest till it’s done” attitude….

The manliest thing about my husband is the fact that he LOVES to build ‘things’, be it DIY industrial shelves or hacking a console into a wine rack. The best thing is that he often does it in PJ’s in the middle of the night!
And although I recently lost my Dad, I’ll still be celebrating him this father’s day. Manliest thing about him… phenomenal dancer and never afraid to show it off. :)

HAPPY FATHER’S Day! The manliest thing about my husband is his hard work ethic to make our home beautiful, inside and out. He changes into his work clothes the minute he gets home and helps out with anything from yardwork, dinner, or cleaning the floors. Our three kids think he is the greatest!
Kristen S says
Happy Father’s Day!
The manliest thing about my father in law is how he keeps the old fashioned gentleman philosophy alive. He’s pushing 90 and starting to have significant health problems but he always holds the door for his wife, walks around and shuts/opens her car door for her, all the little things that show he cares.
