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.

    I send my Step Dad Ber a card every year and one from his son (my Step Brother Jimmy) because he has cerebral palsy and is mentally retarded, he is 52, but has the mindset of a 5 year old. The card from Jimmy of course is the most fun to pick out because I always get to shop in the ‘little’ kid section for those and they are just so darn cute!!!

    And, called more 3 dads and also went to a pot luck dinner with another 3 dads (the food was awesome, does anyone use that word any more)! It was quite the dad day.

    Tek Me…please! I once worked selling Lacrosse equipment and the cordless Makita drill was my best friend. (Plus I think the color work well for both men and women ?, I’m a girl)

    Me, my husband, and our 4 yr. old daughter, packed a picnic dinner and went fishing on our families pond. My daughter out-fished us by far. We had a great time seeing wild turkeys, deer, bunnies, turtles, and hearing bob-whites. I think we may have started a new family tradition. :)

    I cooked steak kabobs on the grill for my husband for father’s day. He also got a card from our son with money in it. You know for fishing supplies. He also got a homemade cake from our daughter. It said Happy Father’s Day. We had a really great dinner with our whole family, even his mother was there.
