A Moss Point, Mississippi man has won a suite of Ryobi Power Tools valued at $1,000 — but he may not see the tools for a while.

James Lewis’ wife, Linda, entered his name in Today’s Homeowner’s Tools Under My Tree Sweepstakes and won the grand prize, which she plans to surprise him with on Christmas.

“I entered this sweepstakes for my husband in the hope to win this as a Christmas present for him,” Linda Lewis said. “That would be the best surprise ever.”

James’ Christmas present should surprise him in more ways than one — he’s skeptical of contests, sweepstakes and giveaways, Linda said.

I do enter some contests in my husband’s name; he does a few but gives up quickly,” she said. “He says it is all fake because he doesn’t win lol.”

Linda can’t wait to tell her husband about one sweepstakes that actually paid off.

“I’m gonna tease him so badly whenever he sees that result!” she said.

Today’s Homeowner Partnered with Ryobi Power Tools for the Tools Under My Tree Sweepstakes, which ran from Nov. 19 through Dec. 9 on TodaysHomeowner.com.

Here’s what James will receive:

18-Volt ONE+ Lithium Ion Cordless 6-Tool Combo Kit (value: $300)

This kit features a drill/driver with a screwdriver bit; a circular saw with a blade and blade wrench; a reciprocating saw with two blades and a hex key; an impact driver with a Phillips bit and socket adaptor; a JobPlus Base with a multi-tool attachment head, a wood cutting blade, a segment saw blade, a sanding pad, sample sandpaper, an Allen wrench, a universal multi-tool accessory adaptor; a worklight; a charger; two 1.5 Ah Lithium+ batteries; a tool bag; and operator’s manuals.


18-Volt ONE+ONE Cordless, Brushless 10-Inch Dual Bevel Sliding Miter Saw (value: $300)

This miter saw, which runs on a brushless motor to ensure maximum runtime and product life, includes a 10-inch carbide-tipped blade, a work clamp and a blade wrench.
It operates on Ryobi’s P194 batteries and completes over 800 cuts per charge.


18-Volt ONE+ 6-Gallon Cordless Wet/Dry Vacuum (value: $100)

Features a crevice tool, a floor nozzle and extension wands.
It also has multiple carrying handles for easy transportation, a no-tip wheel design, 360-degree mobility and plug-in or battery power (compatible with Ryobi ONE+ batteries)


18-Volt ONE+ Cordless AirStrike 18-Gauge Brad Nailer (value: $130)

An 18-Volt 4.0Ah Lithium+ battery powers this 18-gauge brad nailer (which includes sample nails and a belt clip) for peak performance! The tool uses up to 1,700 nails per charge.
Best of all, there’s no guesswork — a low-nail indicator lets you quickly and easily see when it is time to reload.


(2) 18-Volt ONE+ Lithium-Ion 4.0 Ah Battery Pack (value: $200)

Lithium-ion’s chemical composition resists drainage when idle, so these batteries are built to last.
A built-in, four-bar illuminated charge indicator alerts you to diminishing capacity.
And freezing temperatures are no match for these batteries, which withstand weather down to 14 degrees Fahrenheit.


18-Volt ONE+ 6-Port Dual Chemistry IntelliPort Super Charger (value: $80)

This quickly charges up to six ONE+ lithium-ion or NiCd batteries — one battery can charge in as little as 30 minutes!
But that’s not all. The Super Charger also features a USB Port that allows users to charge smart devices while juicing up their ONE+ batteries.
