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.

    OH BOY!

    My first concert was Boyz II Men, so I guess they hold a special boy band place in my heart. Then again, I did own the NKOTB holiday album which featured the oh-so-catchy, “Have a Funky, Funky Christmas.”

    The only boy band I ever really liked was New kids on the block. Me and my mom won concert tickets on the radio when I was about 8!!

    OH BOY!

    Would my hubby love this! Why? Because he’s always had a hand me down lawn mower.

    And more power to Menudo (Ricky Martin days) and NKOTB. Can’t get enough of them!

    OH BOY!

    I did roll my eyes, but then, I never really got I to the boy bands too much… I do remember thinking that Menudo was pretty cool though. (Now who’s rolling their eyes?). :-)

    I’m going with the Monkees. Sadly, I was born a generation too late for my crush on Davy Jones to be legitimate.

    Hmmm, that’s tough. I’ve loved the Beach Boys since I was in 2nd grade, do they count as a boy band? Otherwise, I’d have to go with NSYNC.

    OH BOY!!!

    I loved me some BSB back in the day! I was shocked when I saw one direction on TV the other night, I had no idea boy bands were making a comeback; and then I was little embarassed I ever geeked out on the idea.

    I’m a new follower, BTW. I love the blog! I’m buying my first house now, and we’ve decided to go very DIY, so your blog should be quite the resource.
