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!!! Strutting with my shirt off to Justin Timberlake and the rest of ‘N Sync while mowing my lawn with this amazing mower would rock my world. … Okay, I’m lying. My wife asked me if I’d like to win this mower. Yeah!!! This mower is sick! We’re in the process of buying our first home (we’ve had a condo before, but now I’ve gotta do lawn maintenance). Hook me up with this suburban instrument of awesomeness as my first mower and you’ll make one happy man!

    OH BOY! I was definitely a BSB fan but was converted to an *NSYNC fan, then just ended up loving both, because why choose just one?!

    But now, my boy band of choice is definitely The Beach Boys :)

    My wife suggested I sign us up, but it was my 6th grade girlfriend who formed my opinions of the classic boy bands… NYSNC is the most tolerable and it’s all due to Justin Timberlake. He’s absolutely hilarious.

    I used to love the Backstreet Boys, and before that, NKOTB. Now I pretty much dislike them all. So consider me rolling my eyes now.

    This is how out of the loop I am… there are new boy bands?

    Oh boy! I would say NKOTB… well, my 4th-grade self would. We had 2 push mowers … one got stolen from our yard! and the other just died. So we truly have no way to mow our lawn right now. :( We borrowed my parents’ last weekend as we are shopping for a new one. Fingers crossed!

    Oh boy! Forget NKOTB- Boyz II Men were da bomb. I actually missed a chance to see them at my local fair (yup, they play the fair circuit now, how sad is that) and pretty much cried when I realized I couldn’t go. :)

    Oh, and we really,really, really need a lawnmower so we can stop mooching off the guy next door! :)
