Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Boys In The Yard

| By John Petersik | April 30, 2012 | 5,093 Comments

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.

    NSYNC. Sadly, I was incredibly obsessed with them, to the point that when they parted with that creepy Lou guy and it was said they had been cheated out of some of their money, I told my mom I was going to send them my allowance because I didn’t want them to be homeless. My walls were covered in posters, floor to ceiling. My furniture was covered in posters. Any surface I could stick a poster to, it was done. I spent any money I made from making websites (I was a busy 9-year old) went to buying import singles, concert tickets, you name it. I look back and wonder what the heck was wrong with me!

    The night I tore down all of my posters and decided I was no longer a fan, I came out of my room and my mom and brother stood staring, mouths agape, and my brother said, “Did she have a breakdown?” Funny/sad times.

    OH BOY! I don’t know if they were technically a “boy band”, but Hanson was my favorite band from that era. Believe it or not, they are still making music today and are much better at songwriting than they were back then, haha.

    I am a 4th grade teacher and one of my kids brought me one of those World Records books the other day, pointed to a picture of N’Sync and asked ,”Have you ever heard of these guys?” I had to control my inner 12 year old self but I did admit to my kids that I was slightly obsessed with N’Sync back in the day.
