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 was always a sucker for Boyz II Men. It reminds me of my middle school years.

    Do the Monkeys count as a boy band???? I LOVED watching that show and listening to them sing. The reruns were on when I was in middle school and high school.
    “Hey Hey We’re the Monkeys” . . . .
    LOVE the question.

    I really wasn’t interested in any of the popular boy bands around as I was growing up. However, if I had to choose I did listen to Christian pop group Plus One a bit. Not really more than other artists but that would be as close to a boy band as I got.

    OH BOY! I never really got into American boy bands, but I was obsessed with the British group EMF (see “Unbelievable”). I’m embarrassed to admit that when it came time to select a study abroad program for my junior year of college, I chose a university in Gloucestershire solely because one of the band members lived there and the others were nearby. The freaky thing is that they ended up playing at the welcome celebration to kick off the school year, so I got to see them live. Good times. Good times.
