Fab Freebie: Drop And Give Me 20
***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
According to random.org, the two winners are… Elaina (who’d go back 4 years and tell herself to spend less money on piercings and more on traveling) and Cathey (who found a loophole in our question because she is 20).
If you haven’t already heard of 20×200, then you’ve been missing out on some awesomely affordable stuff. Specifically, $20 art. Each week the site releases new artwork in limited editions and in multiple sizes. The most affordable ones (priced at 20 beans) come in an edition of 200, hence the site’s name. So it’s a great spot to score something unique on the cheap, or you can splurge for a large-scale or a framed version (you know, if you’re feeling fancy). And since things can quickly sell out, getting their newsletter also means getting the first crack at their new editions.
- PRIZE: A $50 gift certificate to 20×200
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “GIVE ME 20!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … tell us, if you could give your 20-year-old self any piece of advice, what would it be? Party it up while you still can? Change majors? Dump that guy/girl already? Stop wasting money on Scarface posters?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, August 3rd at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
- PRIZE SHIPS: The US and anywhere else 20×200 ships (check here for more info)
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics courtesy of 20×200 and its artists.

I am only 24, so I don’t have entirely too much advice for my 20 year old self besides spend money on going places and doing things, not racking up the credit cards on buying food, piercings, and other crap!
Finally have $0 in credit card debt and took half the piercings out of my ears! Would have rather been paying off the credit cards because of a trip to Paris or something!!

GIVE ME 20! I would tell my 20 year old self to change majors… it’s true. I majored in law, spent 2.5 years in firms after college & knew it wasn’t for me. Got a masters after that in public administration & now work for a large university, which is pretty good. But, if I could go back, I would have changed my original major to accounting or something business-related.
