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!!

    I don’t know how I could choose just one boy band… In college I lip synched to NKOTB’s “Hangin’ Tough” with a bunch of friends – we rocked it.

    I have soft spot for Ultra, a short-lived British band who my parents randomly met in a coffee shop in Italy when I was in middle school. Not only did they bring me home their CD, but their autographs, too!

    “OH BOY”… my favorite boy band would probably be “Boys to Men” mostly because I wasn’t allowed to listen to NKOTB and by the time the other guys came on the scene, like Backstreet Boys or NSYNC or even 98 Degrees, I was a little over that “boy band” style.
    Of course, I definitely had a thing for the brother-boy-band: The Hanson brothers and their “MMM Bop”. Would love to win a tractor for my hard-yard-working husband, Andy!!

    OH BOY!!!!!

    I have to say that NKOTB were THE BEST boy band of all time!!!! I even had the NKOTB board game, which was way too difficult for me to learn to play (I was probably about 7-8)but worth trying.

    Immature was also an all time favorite… Thinking about adding that as on of my Pandora station :)

    Can I go even more old school??? How about some Four Freshman or some Rat Pack (even though they were not technically a boy band…) I think I was born in the wrong decade!

    Love your blog by the way, just started reading and am getting ready to buy and renovate our first home! =)

    I wouldn’t call them a “boy band,” but a group of extremely talented, extremely handsome men… The Rat Pack. Gotta love some Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr :)
