Fab Freebie: Skil-ly Weather

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***

I won’t lie. When the folks at Skil wanted to offer up one of their tools this holiday season, we had trouble picking out the perfect prize for you guys. Then they offered to give away a four-tool-tastic combo pack so we didn’t have to make that call. Nice, right?

Skil Giveaway

So this week’s winner will be scoring all four tools pictured above, which are officially dubbed the 18V Lithium Ion Cordless 4-Tool Combo Pack. Which means the drill, circular saw, reciprocating saw, and flashlight all work off of the same rechargeable battery. So here’s how you can snag this last minute Christmas present for yourself (or the handyman / woman in your life):

  • PRIZE: The 18V Lithium Ion Cordless 4-Tool Combo Pack from Skil.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “SKIL ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about another foursome you love. Maybe it’s a band (the Beatles?) or maybe it’s a group of fictional characters (the ladies of Sex and the City?) or real people in your life (your four kids?).
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 22nd at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: United States of America
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

******************************

And just in time for X-mas, our lucky winner (as chosen by random.org) is… Ashley (who’s favorite foursome is her family of four). Congrats!

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Skil.

    Skil Me!

    Currently, me and my two sisters are redoing many things in our homes. Who’s there to help us and travel from house to house?…our Dad:) Yep, he now has “bins” in the back of his truck with all of our needed supplies. But often times I might be able to do a quick project but can’t because the right tools are in one of the “bins” in the back of his truck that is at one of my sisters’ houses. I hope I win these fantastic tools!!

    I echo the poster who said their favorite foursome was their bridesmaids at their wedding. My girls were so radiant on that day and since I was married in the winter – I think of them at this time!

    I love to renovate my house but right now we are doing it kind of manually since the one that I bought for my husband last year is broken and I don’t think I am having a replacement that $oon, I would be more than happy to have one brand new and that really works =). For me the real love is my husband and kids but and I really enjoy the warm afternoons strolling the kiddos an walking next to my hubby.

    My favorite foursome…….my immediate family of 1 husband and 3 daughters! These 4 tools would be so handy for a family who has NO power tools…..just a hammer and a few odd screwdrivers. I would LOVE to have these to work with so I could make all the little adjustments that my 1947 house needs!

    Thanks for such a fun blog!

    Best foursome where I am are the 4 seasons-the crispness and wonderful flavors of Fall: the quiet and serenity of snowwy winter days-an excuse to just take out a book and read: the sweet smells and glimpses of color that come with Spring: and Summer-the warmth of sun,the fresh ocean breezes and fun,fun,fun.
