Fab Freebie: Boys In The Yard

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

After lots of love proclamations for NSYNC, NKOTB and more, random.org has survived boy-band-mania and crowned our winner as… Megan G (who says she loves the original boy band…The Beatles). Congrats Megan!

In the spirit of a week of cleaning & organizing, who could use a new lawn mower to tidy things up outside? Well, someone’s getting this puppy (valued at $339) thanks to Lawn-Boy. It’s self propelled, easy to start, and features a “Blade Stop” system that allows you to turn off the blades without killing the engine, which comes in handy if you’ve got a lawn frequently peppered with sticks or toys (not that I’m speaking from experience or anything).

Lawn Boy Giveaway

  • PRIZE: The Lawn-Boy 10605 Mower
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “OH BOY!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … your favorite boy band of all time. Are you digging the new guys (One Direction, The Wanted)? Or do the ones from back in the day (Backstreet Boys, NSYNC) still get you going? How about the really old school ones (NKOTB, Boys II Men, Menudo)? Or have you rolled your eyes at this whole question?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, May 2nd at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner 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 for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Lawn-Boy.

    I never was a HUGE fan of any of the boy bands…not to say that I didn’t dance around my room with a hairbrush singing to them though! But seriously…has anyone heard the stuff Hanson put out in the last few years?? haha.

    OH BOY!!!

    Well, if I have to choose, it would be Backstreet Boys — love Justin Timberlake!

    I would love to win this sweet lawnmower for my even sweeter husband (my backstreet boy!). He is such a hard worker and deserves a new lawnmower!!

    I was never in to boy bands at all… I don’t know why. In the 90’s (pre-teen/teen yearS) I was very in to being weird and listening to classical music and doing my homework.

    Oh Boy! I still get pumped whenever I hear N’Sync or Backstreet Boys. I usually start singing along wherever I am…restaurant, gas station, dentist…

    And although as an adult I feel pretty lame, I can’t help smiling and the overwhelming feeling to want to pinch their cheeks whenever One Direction comes on.

    For the first time, I don’t feel kindred to the rest of YHL community. NSync over Backstreet Boys?!?! Ummm no. We are in a fight, YHL fans. BSB is where it is at y’all.
