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!

    Favorite boy band of all time would have to be the Backstreet Boys! I won tickets on the radio when I was 16 (that would be 11 years ago, oh man….) and it was by far the best day of my life hahaha. Although I am loving the NKOTBSB of recent days.

    This is a great give away! My husband and I are closing on our first house in 2 weeks and we need….pretty much everything for the lawn haha. Thanks!

And my 18 month old does too. I have a video of her singing it too. So sweet! She says “Cru- azy gull” **Sigh** I love my little girl

    OH BOY!
    I will give you the rundown of my fave boybands from each segment of my life. It all started off with NKOTB, they invented the “boy band” in my mind. Then we went to my fave of the 90s, good old 98 degrees, into the late 90s with LFO (you must admit, that one song was SO GOOD), and here we are with the time in my life where no “new” boy band can compete with my old stand-bys so I continue to rock out to NKOTB on a regular basis!
