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

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!!!

    NKOTB is definitely my favorite boy band of all time. However, I was listening to the radio the other day and heard the One Direction song and (embarrassingly enough for a woman in her late twenties) LOVED it! boy bands will never die!! lol

    Oh Boy!! I used to love me some NSYNC back in the day. ;)

    PS My husband would be so stoked if we won a lawnmower. My dad fixed us up an OLD one 3 years ago when we moved into our house to last us a couple months until we had more money, and it’s still running! I can’t handle the thought of buying a new one when we have one that still runs, but I know my husband has been itching to get one that has a bag, can raise and lower, and you know, isn’t older than we are. haha

    OH BOY! I was obsessed with New Kids on the Block. I remember in 4th grade begging my dad to take me to see them in concert (he didn’t- I was too young he said) and I had a tshirt with all of their faces on it. That was cool then, right? :)

    OH BOY!
    Feel a little silly saying that. I loved NKOTB Jordan and his rat tail with all of my nine year old heart. I tore his picture out of Teen Beat or whatever those magazines were called and pinned it to my bulletin board because I wasnt allowed to tape things to the wall. Mom said it ruined the paint. She just didn’t understand that we needed to be together.

    Please pick me for the lawn mower. My husband has been working on getting ours to start and it’s hangin tough (get it??) but it is definitely on the way out.
