Daily Home Renovation Tips

A new month deserves a new contest, right? We think so. So, what is the deal with our 3rd contest of 2009?

The Home Depot has graciously supplied us with a $100 gift card to give away to one of the visitors to DailyHomeRenoTips.com to help celebrate Father’s Day in any way we want. They are doing it on other sites as well.

Looking for that perfect gift for your hard-working dad?  Help Dad do more this Father’s Day by giving him a gift card from The Home Depot.
Visit your local Home Depot to find three new gift card styles to choose from, including a gift card that looks and feels like duct tape and a gift card that comes with a FREE 3/8″ drill bit!

You can use this link to find out more about available The Home Depot Father’s Day and every day gift cards.

Now, here is what our giveaway is all about.

We learned so much from those who entered our Home Depot home energy conservation gift card contest last fall by your many, many conservation tips.

The ways in which our visitors take action to reduce their consumption, your consumption, of electricity, home heating oil and natural gas were outstanding. Thank you for teaching us.

This time we are going to run a similar type of contest, but we have expand it to also include water conservation suggestions. As is becoming more and more apparent, water is also becoming a scarce natural resource for all of us.

Each entry you make must include a different suggestion on ways in which a household can directly reduce it’s consumption of either (A) a non-renewable energy resource (home heating oil, natural gas, electricity, etc.)  or (B) water.

You can enter as many times as you want with one stipulation;

 each entry you make must contain a different home energy or water conservation suggestion.

Remember, your energy or water conservation suggestion has to relate to energy or water consumed inside the home or around the home’s yard. After all, our site is about home renovation, home maintenance and home energy conservation, right?

You can come up with your own suggestions (which are our favorite approach so we and others can learn more of what we already do not know) or you can even enter using any of our existing items in our Un-Official Home Energy Conservation Guide. The choice is yours.

You can re-use home energy conservation tips you used in last year’s contest or new ones.

Remember, you can enter as often as you wish as long as each entry contains a different energy conservation tip. And, one energy conservation tip per entry, OK?

SPAM and other such type of entries will be disqualified at the sole discretion of DailyHomeRenoTips.com.

The contest is open to residents of the United Stats or Canada who are 18 years of age or older.

Our $100 Home Depot Gift Card contest runs now to 11:59 pm ET Saturday June 20, 2009 (the day before Father’s Day).

The winner will be contacted by email and by entering our contest agree for their first and last name, as well as their City and State or Province of residency to be published by us in articles about the contest and its winners.

Additionally, the winner will need to provide their mailing address (again, in the United States or Canada) to a representative of The Home Depot so the gift card can be mailed out to them.

Good luck to all. Here is the contest entry form.

Remember, one tip per entry / comment.

Thanks!
