Fab Freebie: Tek For Dads

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

According to random.org, the winner this week is… Kat (who celebrated Father’s Day with cards, dinner for her husband and a called to her dad). Congrats!

In honor of Father’s Day (yes, I realize it was yesterday, but why not keep the celebration alive?) we’re giving away – you guessed it – TOOLS. But these particular tools are Ryobi TEK4 tools, a series of ten cordless gadgets that look pretty darn sleek, are crazy durable, and run on a long-lasting 4V rechargeable battery. And come to think of it, ladies would look just as good slinging these guys (so they’re not just for dads). We picked our three most go-to devices from the TEK4 line and are giving them (plus an extra battery and charger) to one lucky guy or gal this week. So without further ado, your trio of tools: the Self-Leveling Plumb / Cross Laser, the Professional Stud Sensor, and the Compact Drill / Driver (and the handy battery they all share).

Ryobi Tek4 Giveaway

  • PRIZE: The three Ryobi TEK4 tools shown above, plus extra battery and charger.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “TEK ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … share with us what you did you celebrate Father’s Day yesterday. A special breakfast? A family dinner? A card from your dog (Burger makes me one every year). Maybe just a phone call to say “hello” to someone special? Or was yesterday just your average Sunday?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 22th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The contiguous 48 United States
  • 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 winners. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers. See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Ryobi.

    We had a crab feast to celebrate Father’s Day! This is our second year doing it, so I think we’ll make/call it a tradition from now on! :)

    For my husband and I, it was basically just a typical Sunday (we’re childfree by choice). We definitely made sure to call/email/message all of the fathers in our lives and wish them a Happy Father’s Day, though :)

    My dad is out of town, so we’ll celebrate next week, but I actually spent yesterday going through every room of my house with my husband and making a list of projects for each room. It’s a long list. And then I felt inspired, so I spray painted the old shiny brass hardware on our credenza a lovely brushed nickel color.

    TEK ME!We have a tradition of spending Father’s day with our daughter doing an activity that is Dad oriented but enjoyable for her (she’s 2.5). We went to see Thomas the Tank Engine at a railroad near our home. We went for rides on the steam engines and enjoyed watching her face light up when she saw her hero! As for my Dads, I called them and send them gift cards via email. What can I say, they are high tech guys!

    TEK ME! Every year my family takes our boat out and spends the day on the lake, including lunch at a lakeside restaurant called “The Tiki Bar”. Then my dad and I always go to the IMCA Modified stock car races in the evening. He always points out how the cars are running and I pretend to understand what he’s talking about :).

    Father’s Day was extra special this year because I got to celebrate it with my Dad in person, for the first time in 9 years. We spent the day on the beach, followed by a homemade lasagna dinner. Doesn’t get much better than that.
