Just For Fun Giveaway

Just For Fun Giveaway

Let’s keep it simple! We are going to take a priority mail flat rate box and we are going to PACK it full! Seriously, it will be like Christmas Day all over again when the winner gets this box in the mail.

We are taking all of our FAVORITE brands and adding (one time) every single day until the COVID-19 Virus social distancing ends in the US! SERIOUSLY.  The best thing is it will be a HUGE variety! It will be full all all of our favorites including some gift cards and then we will randomly select a winner!

UPDATE: We have added a $50 Amazon Gift Card to the BOX!

UPDATE: Included in the giveaway will be the WORX® 20V Power Share Portable Vacuum.

It is a lightweight, versatile and efficient solution to a wide range of dry spills and messes in the home, shop, office, garage, patio, car, truck, RV, boat – in fact, anywhere it’s not feasible or convenient to enlist a full-size shop or household vacuum cleaner. Whoever wins this is going to be happy!

Weighing only 3 lbs. (with battery), the portable vacuum is constructed of durable, nylon resin.  In the shape of a small box, the vac has a built-in integrated handle for easy transport.  A 4-ft., flexible hose is provided along with crevice tool and brush accessories for getting into confined areas. The crevice tool is designed to fit into narrow spaces, such as the gap between a car seat and console or between sofa cushions.  The brush accessory acts as a powered duster, eliminating small dirt particles, grit and lint.

Because the go-anywhere, portable vac is cordless, it’s not tethered to any power outlet, and there’s no extension cord to drag behind.  The vac’s 180W motor is powered by a 20V, 2.0 Ah, Max Lithium battery with up to 10 minutes of high-speed run-time and 25 minutes run-time at low speed. The 20V portable vac is designed for dry pickups.  A washable HEPA filter is used to help remove allergens, dander, pet hair and other small particles. The vac’s 6 oz. debris container is detachable for easy emptying.

Besides vehicle detailing, the cordless vac is ideal for cleaning up after installing cabinet hardware, hanging blinds or curtains, and other indoor DIY tasks that require sawing or drilling.  It’s also handy for vacuuming window sills and tracks, dusting fan blades and blinds, quick pick-ups of dry spills in the kitchen, and more. The portable vac also can be used on desktop and laptop keyboards, drawing dust and other small particles between keys. It also can be used for dusting motherboards when inserting memory, replacing hard drives or general maintenance. The WORX 20V Power Share Portable Vacuum retails for $99.99 and is available at worx.com.
