Bosch Gadget Dad Giveaway

by Chris     June 10, 2010    

I have been teasing you with a bunch of Bosch news these past few days (no we are not sponsored by Bosch), but how would you like a giveaway to change things up a bit? I am a little late to this, but it turns out Bosch has a Fathers Day Giveaway of their own going on right this minute.

Up for grabs is either a PS21-21 12-volt pocket driver, a PB360S Power Box Radio, or the GLR225 Laser Distance Measurer. There will be a total of three winners, and each winner will be able to select which prize they want. The contest ends June 30th, so be sure to head on over to the contest page and enter today.

Want an idea of what the PB360S can handle in terms of abuse? We have a short video below.

Sears Giving Away Free Local Park Makeover

by Chris     April 08, 2010    

Spring is in the air and the time to go enjoy the outdoors again is here. For many families this means a trip to the local park or ball field for some memory making. Unfortunately, because of the economy some local parks have all but shut down because of budget cuts, and poor maintenance.

Sears Blue Lawn & Garden Crew wants to bring new life to some local parks with their new makeover giveaway called More Green Across America. You can nominate your local park to win the grand prize of a complete lawn and garden giveaway worth $30,000. In addition, 10 first prize winners will receive $3,140 worth of Lawn and Garden equipment for their local park.

To nominate your park, submit up to 4 photos and a 250 word or less essay explaining why your park or ball field deserves the makeover. Nominations will be accepted through April 16 after which Judges will narrow the submissions to 10 finalists. Starting April 21 America will be able to vote for the Grand Prize winner.

If you know of a park in need, take a couple minutes to add your nomination; I am sure the local kids would thank you.

Festool Giving Away $10,000 In Tools

by Chris     March 15, 2010    

We all know Festool tools are expensive and priced out of the reach of many users. Granted they are designed as high end tools that should last a lifetime, it is hard for many people to justify the initial wallet shock. One of the main reasons people decide to give Festool a chance is because of the great reviews their tools receive, as well as the free advertising known as word of mouth. Another great way to get some cheap advertising is by running a contest.

Festool is sponsoring a contest over at Fine Home Building, where they will be giving away over $10,000 worth of Festool tools and accessories. There will be a total of three prize packages that will total approximately $10,715. To enter is easy, simply head over to the contest page and fill out the entry form. The contest is open to the legal residents of the U.S. and Canada except for Quebec and Puerto Rico, who are at least 18 years old. Be sure to enter by 11:59 p.m. ET on May 31, 2010.

Check out what is in the three prize packages after the Read More.
