Great Giveaway – Ready(Ratcheting)Wrench

GIVEAWAY

Remember how last year Jeremy got a cool stocking stuffer? It was a ReadyWrench…

Remember?

And remember how he said that it wasn’t a cheesy tool?

  

Remember that?

And how I said that there was nothing wrong with being married to a cheesy tool…remember?

Well, this year, the fine folks at Black n Decker sent us the upgraded version (for free!) so that we could do a compare/contrast/review…it was the uncheesiest untooliest tool of them all….the Ratcheting ReadyWrench. 

Dude.  If you can’t remember anything else from this, I just want you to remember that if you have a leftover home improvement store gift card…or a bit of Christmas money…or if your Dad’s wallet just happens to be sitting unguarded, that you want to make your way to the Ratcheting ReadyWrench aisle and get one of these.  (By the way, I do not endorse stealing your parent’s money…but if you happen to use Pop’s card instead of yours, he does get the rights to borrow this tool and for that, he will thank you.)

And this year, we put this sucker to the test…we gave it to my brother to see if he (being the wrench-weilding type) would give us the lowdown. 

What does Tim do that makes him an expert ratcheting-wrench-judger?  You see that trailer behind his truck?  Yeah…he uses wrenches all day every day as he works with cars.  Yeah…he’s one of those things-with-engine-lovahs.  I don’t get it but whatever.  He doesn’t understand ceramic birds…it’s amazing that we are of the same bloodline.   And whenever I say ‘bloodline’ I think of being a vampire…and then I think of Edward Cullen….not the actor who plays Edward…my imaginary version of Edward…which is actually Jeremy with sparkling glitter-skin and a black trenchcoat.

Anyhoo…Tim, being a man of very few words…said the following of the Ratcheting Readywrench…”very cool”. 

Did you catch that?  Yeah…two TWO words!  I don’t think he said that much when I told him I was pregnant with his future nephew.

And then he went on (!!!!)….he liked “the weight of it” (which I don’t really get) and how the socket sizes were colorcoded…AND how it was all-in-one (hello convenience!)….wrench and socket set.  And then he ran off to tinker with it….which by the way is very different than tinkling with it 🙂  

And Edward, err….I mean, Jeremy told me that the ratcheting action made it super easy to use.  And that it was perfect for those folks who don’t need an entire socket set…just the standard 16 sizes.     

So why am I telling you all this? 

Well, the fine folks at Black N Decker want you to have one…so they picked us to host a giveaway (time to break out the pop-n-lock-bootie dancing!)  Here’s how you can win:

PRIZE : Ratcheting Ready Wrench

DESCRIPTION:  The new Ratcheting ReadyWrench promises to make your home improvement, remodeling or DIY project a cinch, thanks to the 16 socket sizes contained within this one amazing wrench, now with ratcheting action.

NUMBER OF WINNERS : One (1)

TO ENTER : Leave a comment with the phrase “I’M READY”.  And just for fun, tell me what needs tinkering around your house?  A bathroom?  A kitchen?  A car?

PRIZE SHIPS : the lower 48 states

NITTY GRITTY :  This giveaway ends on Saturday, January 8th at 8am EDT.  Only one contest entry per email address.   The winners will be chosen using Random.org and announced on Monday, January 10th.

  71. I’M READY!

    We move into our recently bought house on January 21st, so everything needs tinkering.

  72. We just moved and there are so many things that need “tinkering”, I would need unlimited space to list them…..kinda like what you’ve been talking about with your “new” house!

  79. I’M READY! The hubs and I actually have quite a list of things that need tinkering…we just made the list last night and I don’t think we’ll ever get done, but this tool could certainly help!

  80. I’m ready! The list is long but we will be fixing up a bathroom, new flooring for our den, lots of outside work and lot of furniture buying.

    Still loving the blog!

  83. I’M READY! Everything needs tinkering & we’re newleyweds and don’t have many tools 🙁 This would be a great start!

  88. “I’M READY”,

    What guy doesn’t need another tool, especially a free one! We moved into our new house back in June and are looking forward to seeing your new place.

  90. I’m Ready!

    We are getting ready to put our house on the market, so as you know, there are little things that we are finding need to be fixed just enough to make them look more expensive 🙂

  92. I’M READY!

    There are lots of things that need tinkering in my house and I have lots of projects it would be helpful for. Plus, since all of the tools are kept in the detached garage (hubby is a mechanic and needs them out there), we are always running back and forth to get tools. Even in the rain and snow and cold weather. bleh.

  93. I’M READY!!!

    Our walkin closet has been a work in progress for the last month or two…. I am ready for that to be finished!

  94. I’M READY!! Everything needs tinkering in our house. If this tool helps my husband keep just a little part of the garage clean then I’m all for it!!

  95. I’m ready… to get tile for my kitchen floor. But the ratcheting ready wrench would come in handy for some other projects!

  97. I’M READY

    We are embarking on a project to finish our basement, so we have a lot of tinkering ahead of us the next few months.

  102. I’M READY!

    To learn how to use some real tools. All I feel comfortable with are the phillips and flat heads…..

  103. I’m ready! We’ve yet to tackle the 2nd floor of our house….it needs lots of tinkering =)

  106. I’m ready!!

    On Christmas Eve, my mom decided she wanted this for Christmas….unfortunately, my brother and I didn’t find it as we ran through Lowe’s doing last minute shopping…so I think I would give it to her….Valentine’s Day, perhaps?? 🙂

  107. I’M READY!

    My husband is a grease monkey, so I’m sure this would be put to good use on some motorcycle/car/bike, etc.

  108. I’m ready to pop n lock bootie dance if I win. My husband’s truck is torn apart in the garage right now. We had a loud noise from his truck’s ‘rear-end’ two days before Christmas. He had to rent tools to disassemble it. Who knew we didn’t have enough tools?!?

  111. I’m Ready!! Our basement is getting an overhaul soon, which may involve some furniture assembly… I hope we’d need a sweet new wrench for something!! 🙂

  116. I’m Ready!

    Everything.. especially after following yours and Sherry’s blog.. I am on my husband about redoing our whole house!

  119. I’m ready! or more like my husband is! We have just started DIYing and this will surely help. Thanks.

  120. I’m Ready! My husband and I just moved into our first home last June and there is a laundry list of things that need fixed up, but at the top of our list is a complete kitchen remodel this spring!

  123. I gave ReadyWrenches to all my groomsmen last summer! I even bought one for myself because it looked cool 🙂 I didn’t think I’d need it but it turned out to be the only wrench -socket or box – that could fit into the space to get my car battery out. It worked great! I don’t care if I win another, I just wanted to comment.

  124. I’m ready! My car definitely needs some tinkering, although I’m not so sure I’m the woman for the job.

  125. I’m Ready!

    My husband and I are just starting to make a list of “to do” projects in our new house. We’d love to have this handy tool. Plus my husband would be happy not to have to go out and buy another tool 🙂

  126. I’m READY! Wow, so many things could use a little tightening up around our house – I don’t even know where to begin!! 🙂

  127. I’M READY!

    We’ve got a kitchen faucet that needs replacing, as well as a shower head in the basement. Unless I like my guests to feel like they are in prison, in which case the current shower head is just fine.

  131. I’m ready!

    Sooo… what doesn’t need fixing in my house? lol.

    Definitely the bathrooms… ancient, ancient bathrooms. The sink drips all.day.long. Help pleaseee.

  132. I’m ready! Lots of things to use this wrench on! I’m sick of bringing the whole entire set up every time I need to use one!

  133. I’M READY! I can definately find something for my husband to tinker around with 😉 We’d both love it!

  135. I’M READY!

    Many, many things around my house need tinkering. Right now I’m thinking bathrooms.

  138. I’M READY!

    The better question is, what DOESN’T need tinkering in my house? …sigh…

  140. I’M READY! Our bathroom tub faucets needs some serious tinkering…. or just need to be ripped out and new ones installed!

  143. I’M READY! And so is my dad, who I would give this to as a good luck gesture as he begins the remodeling of two bathrooms this year.

  145. I’M READY! My husband and I close on our new home next week – so I’m sure there will be LOTS to tinker with there! 🙂

  146. I’m ready! Well, the hubby is at least. J/K I’ll help… there’s this little unused area of dining space off our kitchen that would be so much nicer as a 1/2 batch and mudroom after some tinkering.

  147. I’M READY! Well my dishwasher went out last week, so I will definitely be using it to try and fixing it!!

  148. I’m Ready!
    Hubby and I just bought our 1st home this year and I can’t even begin to explain all the things that we can get to work on with this baby!! …by ‘we’ of course I mean HE 🙂

  149. I’m ready!! i would love to win one of these bad boys! {for my husband of course} 😉 My husbands car is always needing some “tinkering”, always. Love your blog by the way!!!

  151. Im ready to give this to my hubby so he can tinker on his car and mountain bike. he is always out in the garage tinkering… and lately he was mentioning that he needed some tool… i think this would be a great addition to his collection of tools.

  152. I’m Ready!

    We live in a 105+ year old house, so there are LOTS of projects that would make good use of this!

  154. I’M READY!

    This would come in real handy with out “new” very old first house. Every inch of this baby needs to be tinkered!

  155. I’m ready! To get my car battery replaced, shelving installed in the attic, curtain rods re-hung, and to de-clutter!

  157. I’m ready! I have tons of odds and ends projects, but mainly want to change out my kitchen sink for something deeper!

  158. I’M READY! My husband would love this. We gave one to our dads for Father’s Day, but now he needs one of his own. He’s always tinkering with something…..the tractor, lawnmower, truck….something!

  159. I’M READY!

    We have a bathroom and a powder room that need tinkering. Oh, and my husband has one of those huge ugly beast trucks that he is always tinkering with.

  160. I’M READY!!! I think the question should be what doesn’t need tinkering. I would love to do an entire house make over. Sadly, I lack the ambition and money 🙁

  161. I’m Ready!
    since we’re expecting our first child in less than 3 months, the honey-do list is LOOOONG and could definitely use a little extra ratcheting help!

  164. I’M READY! We are currently working on our nursery! We will be welcoming a little girl in less than two months 🙂

  169. I’M READY! What doesn’t need tinkering? We definitely could use this for work on the house and car.

  170. IM READY .. to loose the massive socket set my dad insisted that I keep stored in my tool dresser & get an all-in-one

  173. I’M READY

    We just built a new house and there’s lots of loose ends that need some wrenching!

  176. I’M READY! We are getting married in June moving into a new place with lots of projects! We are going to start with the downstairs bathroom!

  177. I”M READY!!
    Everything needs tinkering…the bathroom….the kitchen…dining, living, bedrooms……shall I go on?

  179. I’m ready! Just about everything in our house could use at least a little tinkering but I’d say my husband is most desperate to fix the fan in our bedroom.

  183. I’M READY!

    …mostly for one tool instead of sixteen! Hubby is a tinkerer and tool enthusiast (currently building us a bed), so we have plenty of tools, but (seemingly) none of the “do more than one function” set.

    (PS – I’m pretty new to your blog – thanks to YHL – but I’ve already filed away several of your crafts and projects to do. I’m kinda impressed by your skilz. 😀 Thanks for all the great ideas!)

  185. I’m Ready! (NOT literally! My hubby will tinker with anything that sits still long enough, so really, I’M not ready, but I’M READY!)
    We’re in the midst of repainting the house, room by room, and there are some repairs that need to be made, so I’m sure this will be put to good use!!!

  187. I’M READY!

    Much too many things need tinkering in my house hold. One of our cars broke down a couple of weeks ago, so that would probably be the first!

  188. I’M READY! I would love this for my toolbox, because I really don’t like having to go into my husband’s toolbox where I have to figure out which one I needed from amid the bajillion in there!

  191. I’m Ready! The movers “lost” our old-school (expensive) wrench set so anything that needs some work is sitting undone. Thanks for the giveaway!

  192. Which one did they like better? I’m ready! I am always looking for was to simplify my tinkering.

  193. I’m Ready! We bought our house a little over a year ago and it is a total fixer-upper. We’ve tackled so much, but there is tons more to do. Not to mention that my awesome hubby has been building some amazing furniture to go in the house and this tool would be quite the useful addition to his tool box! 🙂

  197. “I’m ready!” The slider door on our van has corroded and must come off and be replaced. There will be swearing involved I’m sure. So, if my husband has a cool new tool thingie to help with the project, it might help! It’s going to be ugly for sure.

  198. I’m Ready!!

    On my “2011 Bucket List” there are many home improvement projects that could be majorly improved with this untooliest tool.

  199. I’M READY!!

    My husband would love this!!

    My spare room/ craft room/ office/ storage room needs some major help! :O)
    xo,
    Kelly

  201. I’m ready to put my master bathroom back together and to start and finish a never ever ending list of diy projects! Thanks ABP!

  207. I’M READY!

    With a bambino on the way there will be a lot of baby furniture to put together as well as some small fix-it projects around the house.

  209. I’m Ready! We just found out that we’re pregnant… so I’m sure this will come in very handy when we’re putting together all of those baby necessities- and fixing our car to make sure it is safe & reliable. Thanks!

  210. I’M READY!

    We are expecting our 3rd baby in February, so the nursery is READY to be put together!

  215. I’m ready to add french doors to my craft room. 🙂 I’m just not sure my husband is ready…
    Thanks for the great giveaway!

  216. I’M READY! We got new carpet in our bedroom and still need to put our bed frame back together, so this thing would definitely come in handy!

  218. I’M READY … We have one dark and dirty secret in our otherwise nice home … popcorn ceilings. Don’t know why we didn’t have them fixed before we moved in. Well I was 8 months pregnant when we moved in and practically had our son right after unpacking the last box so maybe it was my “mommy” sense that told me we needed to get moved in ASAP and worry about it later!!!

  219. I’M READY! We just bought our first home and he, being an accountant, and I, being a violinist, don’t know much about tinkering but it sounds fun 😀

  221. I’m ready! My bathrooms all need some tinkering as I get ready to put my house on the market!!

  224. I’m ready…remodeling our (new) 57 year old house takes a lot of tinkering. Thanks for the giveaway!

  225. I’m Ready! This would really come in handy for me because I still haven’t figured out my husband’s tool organization method after thirty years of marriage!

  227. “I’M READY”

    Everything in our house. It looks well taken care of, but a 60 year old house needs a tune up every once and a while.

  228. I’M READY!

    Our bathroom needs tinkering, our kitchen, and our car. I also hope to assemble a desk sometime this year, and…well…I guess most of our house needs work!

  229. I’m ready! We’re in the midst of a bathroom renovation and my hubs is constantly switching wrenches. This would make his day!

  232. I’m Ready! My husband and I are in our second year of “homeownership”, so a lot of things need a little tinkering! We are constantly trying to learn as we go with our home improvements, and I would love to surprise him with this gadget!

  236. I’m Ready…can I say all of the above? Our entire house needs some fixing up in one way or another! This would be a awesome tool to have in the tool box!

    PS…You make me giggle with your vision of Edward…I do the same exact thing…except with my sweet/wonderful husband! How awesome are we that we have such great guys in our lives!

  237. I’M READY!

    We’re hoping to have a baby in 2011…so I’m sure a crib will need tinkering with at some point! 🙂

  239. I’M READY!

    Well, everything in our house needs tinkering. We are building it from the ground up.

  241. I’M READY

    I am guilty of borrowing my dad’s tools, it would be nice to give him a new one to replace it. I might have to try it out with a couple things first.

  245. I’M READY! And everything in my house needs tinkering!! 🙂 This would be great for my hubby to be who loves to work on cars!

  246. I’M READY!! Plenty of tinkering needed here, mostly outside, which will have to wait for warmer weather!

  247. “I’M READY” My kitchen needs a whole lotta tinkering! I have all these ideas in mind, just afraid to take the plunge.

  248. I’m READY!

    My whole house is getting a (slow) makeover this year…and the first step is the master bath and bedroom! I’m in desperate need of an oasis away from the madness of 2 little boys!

  249. I’M READY . . . to keep on working on the house my boyfriend and I bought to years ago and are gut renovating, one floor at a time. And when I say gut renovating, I mean down to the studs, the rafters, etc.–we don’t even have a floor between our second and third stories right now

  252. I’m Ready!

    We are getting ready to move into a fixer upper out in the country. I’m sure we could find plenty of uses for it!

  255. I’m Ready!!!!! We live in an old home, lots of things need fixing and tweaking, enough said.

  257. I’M READY!

    hmmm… could i tinker a big, walk-in closet into my master bedroom? i’m thinkin’ not, but you did say this was a really awesome tool.

  258. I’M READY!

    What doesn’t need work in our house? We are putting together a nursery so I’ll go with that!

  259. i’m ready!

    we have some really pesky bi-fold doors that need some serious help (i.e. let’s just throw them away, but we can’t because we’re in a rental). that’s the first thing that comes to mind, but i know there are many other ratcheting things we could do too.

  260. “I’M READY”
    I would love a little tinkering in the way of a light in my closet. It’s so dark in there!

  261. I’M READY!!! Woke up to a huge leak in our laundry room this morning!!!! I’m thinkin’ that needs some tinkerin’!!!!

  267. I’M READY! My bathroom in a mess and this little wrench is just what I need to turn that sucker around!

  268. I’m ready! We have lots of home improvements projects going on. Everything from installing 6 panel doors throughout our house, appliance repairs (fridge & dryer at the moment), and we need to remodel our kids bathroom.

  271. I’m Ready! I’m getting a new bedroom suite off of Craigslist. All the pieces are going to have to be painted first though. ugh.

  272. I’m ready!

    We put in an offer on a new (to us ) house and if we get it (or if we don’t, we’ll find another house) we’ll have LOTS of work to do, so this would come in handy. The potential house needs a new kitchen, two new bathrooms and eventually a new master suite in the unfinished attic.

  273. I’M READY!
    Oh, the kitchen. I would love to change everything about it, from the floor to the ceiling and everything in between, but it’s a rental so I can’t.

  274. I’m ready!!!! I have very few tools in the house and I desperately need more! I am always borrowing from my fiance’s father!!

  275. I’M READY!! I think the list of what *doesn’t* need a little tinkering at our house would be a much shorter one than the one of what *does*!

  277. I’m ready!! We are redoing our entire kitchen and have a basement remodel too so we have lots of tinkering!

  278. OH! I’m READY! I’d love to give this to my husband! YESTERDAY he was trying to fix our kitchen sink, only to discover his ratchet was broken–made fixing the sink very challenging!

  279. “I’M READY”

    My kitchen could use an overhaul…1968 cabinets, chipped laminate countertop & carpet (yeah carpet in the kitchen!!).

  280. I’M READY We are doing some major work on our downstairs bathroom, and I bet this guy would come in handy!

  282. I’m ready! There are plenty of things around here I’d love to work on and this seems like a handy tool to have around!

  283. I’M READY! The list of tinkering-needing for our house is WAY too long. but next on the docket is the bathroom..or the basement. or maybe the laundry room?

  284. I’m ready! We are renovating an old farm house – everything needs tinkering! Plus, my husband is one of those loves-anything-with-an-engine kind of guys. This baby would get used!

  286. I’m READY!! My husband and I just finished refinishing our dining room table and have gotten the refinishing bug. We don’t own our home, but are excited to tackle some other projects like upholstering chairs and a headboard and refinishing some bookcases. This awesome tool would be put to good use!

  287. I’M READY! We have a tiny apartment that constantly needs something done to it. It would definitely come in handy and we would actually be able to store something that size!!!!

  288. I’m ready! Think this’ll be an awesome uni-tool for my bike.

    I don’t suppose you’d consider throwing in a date with that handsome brother of yours, assuming he’s still – as you mentioned in a previous post – single?

  290. I’M READY! After three years in our house, we’ve finally decided to renovate the bathroom. I”m sure that this tool would come in very handy for that huge project.

  291. I’m ready…to tinker with my garden and landscaping, plus whatever I can accomplish during nap time. I need an easy tool.

  294. I’m Ready!

    We have so much that needs tinkering around the house I don’t know where to start. Bathroom! Painting outdoor shed! Garage! Organize closets to better use space!

  295. “I’M READY.” To call a plumber if my husband can’t fix our kids’ bathroom upstairs. Nothing like getting woken up in the middle of the night after I thought we were through with that!

  296. I’M READY!! I’d love to do some tinkering around the house…and with my cars! Sorry, I’m with your brother, anything that has a motor equals SWEETNESS!

  297. “I’M READY”. So many projects, I have no idea what we would use this on…but I am sure my husband would love to put it in his new rolling tool box he got for Christmas!

  298. “I’M READY”. and umm, everything. there is something i could fix or improve in every room of my house! lol.

  299. I’M READY….

    because EVERYTHING in my house needs tinkering. Seriously – our plans include a new kitchen, bathroom and someday an addition (also with a bathroom!). That’s a lot of tinkering!

    Thanks for the great giveaway!

  300. I’m Ready! Buying a house (likely a fixer upper) this year, so I’m sure there will be plenty to tinker with, or is it with which to tinker?

  301. I’M READY . . . not to have to listen and watch my hubby complain he can’t find the right wrench/socket for whatever the job is at the moment. This is a monthly need for all of our “projects”.

  304. I’m Ready!

    I’m trying to talk the husband into redoing our home office this weekend! 🙂 (after I already made him put recessed lighting in our living room over christmas break)

  305. I’M READY! I’m not sure what needs tinkering around the house…..but I’m sure I can find something.

  306. Katie, I’m Ready! We’ve got lots of tinkering going on around our house these days. We just bought a new (old) house. Our very first!!! So far, we’ve tinkered with the garage doors (replaced ’em) and the plumbing (thank goodness the dishwasher doesn’t drain into the floor or the washing machine into the nearest bathrub anymore. grose.) and are half-way through a mud room makeover. Next, it’s my car that needs tinkering…

    LOVE your blog, your writing style, your wit, your photos, and the fact that you’re near where I grew up. 🙂 Love, Transplanted Peach (now in the lone star)

  311. I’M READY!

    This would have come in handy with our recent upstairs bathroom remodel (installing faucets). But, that’s okay because we have a master bathroom and kitchen that need lots of tinkering. Bring it on!

  313. I’m Ready! I’m thinking the hubby might find something to tinker with after he gets this for Valentine’s Day!

  315. I’M READY! Our outdoor storage closet, our dining room, our master bedroom, our office….haha

  318. I’m MORE than ready!

    We have a toilet that keeps overflowing… and flooding our hardwood floors. =( My husband is traveling for work 4 days a week currently, and we can not seem to get this thing fixed. I don’t even have any idea if you use a ratcheting wrench on toilets, but I’m game to find out!

  321. I’m ready!
    My main “needs tinkering” issue doesn’t need a wrench, but I’ve got abfriend dropping by with a pair of jumper cables shortly. ):

  322. I’m ready. I could use this in many rooms in my house or as I have started referring to it- The Money Pit.

  326. IM READY!!! TO put together a crib and dresser…well Im ready to WATCH and shout instructions 🙂 There always needs to be an emplyee, and a supervisor on a job right? 🙂

  328. I’m Ready! No, seriously. I’m really ready for this because we close on our first house Feb. 1st and I DEFINITELY have some tinkering to do in that place!

  330. “I’M READY” We are getting ready to sell our house and the last project that needs tinkering is a fresh coat of paint on the front door. But my hubby would totally love a cheesy tool like this!

  331. Uh oh… I’m late to the party, but I’M READY!

    I need to tinker with my newest Expedit cabinet from Ikea, for starters. And it would be a great help for building an organized garage and craft closet (tops on my list this year!)

  339. I’M READY! We’re soon going to be either tackling a re-do of our master bathroom or fixing up our deck. I think this would help with both!

  340. I’M READY!

    No projects currently need tinkering, but I could certainly find one if I were to find myself with a Ready Wrench…

  341. I’m Ready! We are starting our second floor addition (yikes!) in February and we will need all the help we can get!

  342. I’M READY

    I’m sure plenty of stuff needs “tinkering” around the house, but I leave that stuff to the husband, who, I’m sure, would love if I won this. Thanks!

  345. I’m ready.. Our plumbing could use some tinkering, seems like something leaks or overflows every month
    Thanks for the giveaway

  352. I’m ready! The amount of stuff that needs tinkering in my house is too much to list here. 😉

  353. I’m ready! We just replaced the battery in my car so that would have come in handy… but maybe next time!

  354. I’M READY! How about we use this to put together the garage cabinet we’ve had sitting around for 2 YEARS!?

  355. “I’m Ready”! Let’s see- toilet could use a tightening, old doorknob is loose. Let’s face it- I live in a house built in 1930. There is plenty to tinker with around here!

  356. I’M READY! <— reminds me of spongebob squarepants, lol

    The bf and I are always trying to fix up things around the house so this will come in handy!

  357. I’m ready!
    Our very irritating boiler furnace could use a little tinkering right now. It turns off each time the temp drops very low, which seems backwards to me…shouldn’t it be just getting started?

  358. “I’M READY”! My husband and I just bought our first house and there is plenty of “tinkering” to be done. Especially in our downstairs bathroom.
    Great giveaway, thanks for the opportunity.

  360. What in my apartment DOESN’T need fixing? That’s what calling maintenance is for but it would be so nice to have this!

  362. I’m fixin to fix some stuff if I win this! (I live in the South and couldn’t resist! haha)

    Thanks!

  365. “I’M READY”… to tackle some fence repairing in the front yard. A white picket fence which isn’t white any more stands out. Unfortunately. AND I want the fence to match my gorgeous new solar lights I got from the hubby this x-mas.

  366. I’M READY!!

    My bathroom sink only has cold water. And it has been that way for almost a year now…

    It is the only bathroom in the house, the faucet was dripping, so my hubby shut off the hot water. Problem solved… (not really) Now I have to wash my face every morning in freezing cold water. Did I mention its the middle of winter in WV?

    Maybe this ratcheting-wrench would inspire my husband to fix it! Or maybe it would inspire me to fix it myself…

  368. I’M READY!!

    What doesn’t need tinkering in my house? There’s so much, I don’t even know where to begin!

  370. I’M READY! Pretty much the only place I use a socket wrench set is for my car. I hate that socket wrench set. I’d gladly exchange it for something I could hold in one hand and which doesn’t need its own case.

  371. I’M READY!
    What DOESN’T need tinkering around my house?! Bathroom tile, floor tile, wood floors that need to be refinished…the list is seemingly endless. But luckily nothing NEEDS to be tinkered with, it’s all just aesthetic.

  372. I’M READY! I live with two other girls, and right now all we have is a hammer and a flathead screwdriver…

  382. I’m Ready! We are working on everything in our older home. We have the upstairs bedrooms painted and we are working our way down. There is plenty to do.

  384. I’M READY!!

    I’d love to get started on our master bedroom and bonus room addition. Lot’s of tinkering to do in a project like that!

  385. “IM READY” ! We have lived in our house 27 years and needless to say it is showing some wear and tear. I have a whole list of improvements to make starting with our downstairs bathroom…so this tool is definitely needed!

  389. I’M READY! Our plumbing is whistling……. bet a ratchet won’t help huh? but I’m going to drain the pipes and see if the pressure valve is set to high or something.

  392. I’M READY!

    We’re slowly renovated our old house, so we could really use a tool like this for all kinds of things around the house! Thanks for the giveaway!

  393. I”M READY!

    Where do I begin? How about I include all and say almost everything in my house needs tinkering!

  395. I’m Ready. I’m really not and would love this. I’m trying to create a tool kit. I would love this if it would work to turn of my gas line in case of an earthquake here in So Cal.
