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.

    I’ve fallen for all the Boy Bands!! I was in love with Ricky Martin when he was in Menudo and I (at the tender age of 8) swore we would marry!! LOL! I also loved NKOTB and and NSYNC!

    That mower would make a great Father’s Day surprise for my hubby, who is rolling his eyes at me and the whole Boy Band thing at the moment. LOL! :)

    Not so much into boy bands…but I admit that I did LOVE Depeche Mode and Erasure. And I would LOVE a self-propelled lawn mower – no more fighting with my old monster of a machine.

    Ok, so I’m not a huuuuge boy band fan. Just not my thing. But, if I have to pick a favorite, it would have to be the Backstreet Boys – only because I won a cassette of their music in a magazine sale in junior high making it the only boy band album I ever owned :)

    I’d have to go with Boyz II Men as a favorite band band but ‘NSYNC had popular tunes around the same time so that’s a tough one!
