Snap-on winter coat giveaway

[Mr. VR6]

Hey there GJ members!
I’ve been a long standing snap on customer and have received a couple of the nice winter jackets from large purchases, size large, brand new with tags still on them. I hate to see them sit and have to be honest, I have not worn out my original one from many years back. I feel that if I donate them to good will they may not be purchased by someone who really appreciates them for the quality they are. I’m looking to give them away (sans shipping of course) and am looking for an awesome way to do so. Any feed back is appreciated. Thanks!

Take every member who posts in this thread. Put names in a hat and pick winner. Seems to be a popular method on here.

They sound very nice.

I would include a shipping estimate, and how you’d accept payment so folks know what to expect. I for one would love to win, and happily pay shipping for one of those coats!

If you are thinking of doing it here, then using everyone that posts in this thread is an easy way to do so (see Astro's giveaway):

Or, I'm sure there are retired mechanics in your local assisted living homes that would be THRILLED to be rocking a new Snappy coat. A quick phone call could probably determine that.

Either way, nice gesture. Great way to start the New Year off!

Do the schools have shop class where u live u could ask the teacher and he could use them for some incentive for the kids but if u do pick one of us I’ll gladly pay shipping

Raffle them off either here or locally and donate the funds to a charity, national or local.

Also, I'm a large and would buy a ticket/pay for shipping.

A donation to a charity in exchange for a coat... My son gave away a sailboat this way.

They sound very nice I'd be happy to pay to ship if you throw my name in a hat or buy a ticket you throw in a hat with proceed going to a charity of your choice and the winner (me) getting a quality jacket.

I’d raffle them in some fashion maybe donate the proceeds to charity.

 

[shelteredV]

I like the idea of raising money for a good charity. I will definitely enter for it.

 

[fatfillup]

Wonderful idea. I would be happy to pay shipping also.
