Weed Like To Give You A Father’s Day Gift! GIVEAWAY!
Weed like to give you a brand new…..
Did you know that Mr. Remodelaholic loves tools? I’t true! I do. Any tool that makes the job easier is a tool on my list to buy. And I was able to receive a new tool for my yard from Black and Decker this week.
Considering our desire to make life a little easier and a little cleaner we are starting to get yard tools that are environmentally friendly and take no fuel or oil to run them. I am tired of dealing with the maintenance and cost associated them. I recently received a sweet new Black and Decker Cordless 24-Volt String trimmer. Yes! It is battery powered, which is great. Now fuel or cords to deal with.
- High Output 24V NiCad Battery (good power)
- Zero Emissions in My Yard!! (seriously you would choke with our old trimmer)
- PowerCommand Technology (two speeds)
- Over sized Handle (easy to handle and carry)
- Lightweight Aluminum Shaft (not to heavy, easy to adjust for height)
- Two-Tools-In-One (edger and trimmer)
- Large 13 Inch Cutting Swath
- Automatic Feed Spool System
It has a nice 13″ wide cutting surface that automatically adjusts the string when it gets short, so you don’t have to stop and stomp it on the ground. It also holds 30′ of line, which is about double the length of standard trimmers.
It is not only a trimmer, but a edger too. with a simple little twist of the shaft you can change the angle and cut a nice clean edge. I love tools that have a multiple purpose. It save room for me to buy MORE tools (insert evil laugh here)
As a teenager I worked with a landscaping company and had my own company during college so I have used many trimmers throughout the years gas powered and corded. Overall, I think that this is one of the smartest designs for a trimmer that I have seen. By the way it would make a great Fathers Day Gift for all you shoppers!
Thanks Black and Decker for your great product!
Wanna see the before and after?… and when I say before- I mean SCARY! (remember our mower died, so we didn’t have one for a few weeks, okay technically we still haven’t forked over the money to buy a new one, but our neighbors have had pity on us, and haven’t chased us from the neighborhood with pitchforks and torches!)
Wanna win one for yourself? Thanks to the wonderful people at Black and Decker?
This Giveaway open from today through Saturday June 11th 9:00 AM CST. Winner announced Sunday!

>This would be perfect! Ours died last year and the weeds along our fence have been horrendous. We've taken to pulling them out by hand…
>We deserve a trimmer because my boyfriend and I are renovating a bungalow. Not just any bungalow but a dire bungalow where we will start our life together. Right now we have to take a mover to the home everytime we mow and this trimmer would do the entire little yard so seamlessly. We wouldn't be the ugly house on the block anymore. Basically we're the smelly kin in class if you will and this would be one step to better hygene and a prettier home.
>And here is my second entry just because. Thank you 🙂
>hey cassity…we just put in our sprinkler system and sod…yea 🙂 we hope it survives this sudden indian summer but a trimmer would be heavenly!!! love your blog 🙂
>We just bought a house and of course would LOVE a trimmer! 🙂 Thanks for doing a giveaway!
>And once more just cuz you love your readers! 😉
>I deserve one because I don't have one! It would be nice to have, I would love to weed whack the area where my garden is so I can get it rototilled!
>and my just because entry 🙂
>I want/need/deserve this because after 5 years of marriage, the whole time renting, we are finally in the process of buying our first home! As expensive as just buying a house is, we're finding lots of extra costs such as a lawnmower, gardening equipment, etc. This would help us out SO much!

>I would love to be able to save gas and the environment. I use my nice trimmer weekly workign side jobs, so to have a lighter one to tote around, and not have to fill up the gas would be great!
>I NEED this to tame my wild backyard! I moved into a bank-owned property that was vacant for atleast 7months prior. Add that to the crappy previous owners, and I have a yard full of weeds, not alot of grass, and the occasional bike rack (discovered under a pile of leaves & thicket… no joke). Slowly bringing this back to life, with any suckers I can talk into helping!
Second pic shows the yard soon after move-in. Oh, and there was a fallen tree in the back. And poison. I hate poison. https://candyskitchen.blogspot.com/2010/05/weekend-update-taming-wild.html (sorry so dark)
