What are you guys going on about, I entered the May contest days ago!

Would have preferred a C15, but I guess that needs to wait for the June contest  ;D

So, if you didn't get an email from me...  [sad]

More than I got...

I already have a TS55, and no more room for another CT right now, so I probably can't afford to win... I think I'll leave this one for someone who can use it.

Just a friendly reminder... only a couple of days remain for you to enter for your chance to win a Festool Domino Joiner and Tenon Assortment. Head over to http://www.festoolsweepstakes.com to enter. Good luck to everyone!

Since I have never really won anything, I was wondering... what are the tax implications of winning the sweepstakes?  Is Uncle Sam going to ask for a fraction of the Domino?

Great Question .....but a bit of buz kill.... [eek]

The Tax laws are in constant movement. I'm interested to know the current answer to your question.  Regardless of the tax liability will be less than buying it yourself.  I'm also sure a person could decide not to accept if things are a bit tight...and in the current construction market... that is understandable. You might even be able to give to charity and get a nice right off. (hint - form your own charity now!!  [scratch chin])

Cheers,

Simple answer - Unless Festool obtains your SSN and issues a 1099-MISC, it's the honor system.  You are responsible for declaring the retail value of your prize as ordinary income on your federal (and possibly state) tax return.

Section 7 of the rules:

All federal, state, and other tax liabilities arising from this Sweepstakes are the sole responsibility of the prize winner. A Form 1099 will be sent to U.S. winners.
