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.

    My dad and I live far apart so I called him on Father’s Day and told him about how I saw two giantic deers (with antlers!!!) sitting in the back of my neighbor’s back yard at 2am. And no, I don’t live anywhere near the wood.

    That was exactly the kind of story my dad wants to hear, daily if possible.

    Fathers Day was a two day affair this year. Kids and I took my husband to the movies on Saturday to see Super 8, and out to his favorite breakfast place on Sunday morning. Lots of family time, which is not so easy anymore with a 17 yr old and a 7 yr old!!

    i helped our 12yr old make a pancake breakfast for Dad, with fresh Boysenberries, 1 egg-over easy, bacon, scone and hot cup of coffee in the coffee mug that our 7 year old painted for last year’s father’s day. that same 7 year old’s contribution this year was to carry the pancake syrup up to Dad. Note to self: delegate responsibilities better next year.

    I’m a newcomer to your blog but i’m really enjoying it. Thanks for being so creative and informative!
