Free* Multiple items, but there’s a catch.
Please read thoroughly, you’ve been told in life, ‘there’s no free lunch’ and that’s true here too.
FREE; frēē, adjective
a: having the legal and political rights of a citizen
b: enjoying civil and political liberty
a free people
c: enjoying political independence or freedom from outside domination
these united colonies are, and of right ought to be free and independent States
— Declaration of Independence
d: not subject to the control or domination of another
2: made or done as a matter of choice and right : not compelled or restricted
no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof
— U.S. Constitution amend. I
a free and voluntary confession
: relieved from or lacking a burden (as a lien or other encumbrance on title)
a buyer in ordinary course of business…takes free of a security interest created by the buyer's seller
— Uniform Commercial Code
4
: not bound, confined, or detained by force
free on bail
5a
: having no trade restrictions
b
: not subject to government regulation
c
of foreign exchange : not subject to restriction or official control
6
: not costing or charging anything
In this case we will employ Websters definition at 6 above but could arguably be at odds with 2 above as you are either compelled or restricted to take advantage of “free”.
Shipping is on me to the U.S. only. Sorry, other country places, its nothing against you, its me. I cannot even with the post office and the customs nonsense. See Recipient 5 below however for a chance to win.
This free giveaway is a thanks to all who take the time to post helpful responses on the forum.
Item 1 recipient:
The person who posts the OLDEST quote from this forum (made by themselves) onto this thread demonstrating helpful advice to someone seeking assistance or knowledge. Oldest Wins
Item 2 recipient:
The person who posts a quote from any OTHER forum member that has greatly helped them and saved them a lot of money by keeping them from making a mistake. Most Money Saved Wins
Item 3 recipient:
The person who bumps this thread and promotes this thread the most to allow the most members to see it and get a chance at free stuff before the deadline. Best marketing agent / promoter wins.
Item 4 recipient: The person who posts a picture of the roughest/dirtiest hands that could really use some gloves. Must follow classifieds section rules and include a handwritten note with your user name and a date within the date range of this giveaway. Sketchiest hands in combination with best photography win. Note, it’s plural, hands, both them so you’ll need a hand (pun intended) to take a good photo.
Items 5 recipient:
The person who identifies themselves and coordinates with a fellow member outside the U.S. to receive a set of gloves and ship them on to someone out of country (at their own expense) will receive a pair for themselves.
Item 6 recipient: POWER WAGON EDITION
The rest of the gloves are Ram branded, I have only 1 Power Wagon branded to give away.
The person who posts a picture of themselves, in the same photo with a Power Wagon and a handwritten sticky note within date range of this giveaway attached to their shirt. Best beard, mustache or hair wins in combination with best photography.
Some Rules:
One item per, you can only win one pair, though you are welcome to compete for all the categories to increase your chances.
Some of these are subjective so if there is debate, let the members decide the winner.
Obviously you’ll need to give me your shipping address to receive your gloves, if you aren’t comfortable with that please don’t attempt to win, a pair of gloves floating through the country to a fake address helps no one, let somebody else win. I’m in Friendship Maryland if anybody would rather pick up in person. I will most likely ship UPS but a flat rate envelope from the Post Office could work out better for me. TBD
I would like to ship to all winners in one trip to town so if you win please provide your shipping address via Private Message in a timely manner so you don’t hold up the other winners or cost me extra trips and fuel.
You must have at least 20 posts or been registered for 2 months by the end of this giveaway.
Lets go with an end date of February 28 or 500 posts on this thread whichever comes first to give people a chance who may not have checked in recently to see this thread.
Keep your eye on every post in this thread, its POSSIBLE that during the run of this giveaway I MAY add an additional recipient category, hereafter referred to as the
‘mysteriously cryptic item number 7 item which is not gloves and may not even be Ram branded but will very certainly be cool or useful to many people’
If you really like the gloves and want to purchase them for yourselves they are available from Ram Outfitter, My sister who is the worst gifter in the history of Christmas gifters gave me a gift card for branded merchandise and apparel rather than a useful parts or accessories gift card. So I spent it all gloves rather than let it go to waste as I’m typically not a person who advertises at my own expense for a companies logo’d apparel.
