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 made a whole weekend of celebrating the Dad’s in our family. Pizza, beer, water balloon fight, followed with church and family time. It was great.

    TEK ME! It was my husband’s first Father’s Day so my son and I teamed up and got him some oh-so-hip Tom’s shoes and made him breakfast (ok, I made him breakfast, my six month old is still working on his motor skills). We spent the day together which was great, because our schedules are often conflicting and we don’t always see a lot of each other.

    I lost my father almost 20 years ago, so Father’s day is always sad for me. I spent the day driving back from a camping trip with my wonderful friends, who understood when I just started crying for what seemed like no reason… ;)

    My fiance received two cards – one from each dog! He was highly amused that they actually sell cards that are meant to be from the dog (and then not so amused that I wasted money on them). :)

My dad is an avid cycler, and preparing for yet another 100-mile bike ride in a few weeks. We all chipped in and got him a fancy schmancy bike helmet that will keep him safe, as well as looking and feeling cool!
