Congratz Bill! 👍
I GOT A BOX!
I redeemed for a Bosch GA50C dust collection guard for grinders.
I don’t have a Bosch grinder. Guess I will need to find a grinder to use this with LOL!
Thank you Brittany!
Congrats , that looks like a good accessories. Is it for 5 Inch , or 4 to 4 1/2 , and how many points if you don’t mind me asking.
It fits both 4.5″ and 5″ Bosch grinders but NOT all models. Have to read the fine print lol. I have a Milwaukee grinder but do not like the cutting shroud, so wanted to take a look at this one before I go buy a Bosch grinder. I can’t believe I base my grinder selection based on its cutting shroud lol. I think it was 30000 points.

congrats – is that your first one?
Yes my very first redemption from Bosch. I did get a freak last week so this is my second free tool from Bosch.
Speaking of free tools…for those in the USA, do I need to declare the value of the free tools as some sort of “income”, is Bosch going to send me a 1099 at the end of the year lol?
I’ve received lot’s of free tools from various manufacturers. I never received a 1099 from any of them. I can’t speak to the legalities of reporting this on your taxes. It wouldn’t surprise me at all that you should report it, but I doubt that anyone here has done that.

Good question. I know in Canada you don’t have to including lottery winnings or prize winnings from things like being a winning contestant on a game show, but rewards/perks from employment or such as paid for by the employer vacations earned or prizes, yes those are ‘Taxable Benefits’ here that are added to your reportable taxable income that show up on a T4 or T4A slip which is our version of the 1099s issued in the US.
But even if your redemptions from Bosch or the Freak contest winnings should be reported for US taxes purposes, how is the IRS to know? Bosch doesn’t have your Social Security number even if they were audited by the IRS. Still, maybe a call to the IRS would be advised to know for sure.
Keep in mind, I would highly suspect that Bosch puts this down as a promotional items just to circumvent any issue with tax reporting. They also likely identify this as such for us Canadians also simply to also have us avoid brokerage and import duties/sales taxes which we are normally required to pay on goods purchased and shipped to us from the US although since about two years ago we now get our redemptions shipped direct from Bosch here in Canada versus coming direct from Bosch in the US which Jim used to have to fill out a bunch of forms to clear the border that were an added PITA for him with our redemptions so we received out redemptions free of cross border charges otherwise.

I know previous redemptions , or actually all the ones I’ve received from BTP I received a paperwork inside , it actually said something like no retail value , but something like they are for testing.

Yes. Now that you mention it, I’ve seen that description of ‘testing’ on past cross border paperwork forms of redemptions paperwork from when Jim was dealing with shipping from the US.

How long did it take to receive this redemption?

Once I sent it directly to Brittany she responded the same day saying she would have the items sent. The it took about two weeks. A week or so from the time she answered me until I go the notice from UPS saying the stuff had shipped. For me the process went smooth.

I have been wondering the same thing. Mine hasn’t been deducted yet. I assume it will be when Brittany catches up on getting everyone’s redemption?

What did you request? If you requested a pallet of tools it will take time to fulfill Vs something simple like a grinder shroud or an ice cream cone 😂
