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! The only “Boy Band” that I ever really liked was the Beatles (not that they were of my time, that would be more NKOTB). The Monkees were pretty good too.

    OH BOY! I did have a thing for Il Divo for a few years… especially the long-haired Swiss guy (Urs). I’ve gotten over it, though, but I do still love hearing their version of Nella Fantasia.

    My favorite boy band from back in the day would have to have been the Backstreet Boys. The husband still gets mildly excited when they come on the radio.

    I was a HUGE fan of O-town. I recently admitted to some friends I saw them 3 times in concert…that was nearly grounds to end our friendship. My bedroom walls were covered corner to corner with O-town pictures from such classy magazines as: Teen Beat, Tiger Beat, etc. Don’t be too jealous.

    I wouldn’t say they’re my favorite, but I had a Spanish teacher in high school that was friends with Ricky Martin back in the Menudo days (they were stuck on a roof together). As a result much of my Spanish language learning came from old Menudo videos…

    I love me some NKOTB fo’ sho’

    “OH BOY” this would sure look good in our blueberry orchard. And I think I may be too old for boy bands. Do the Beatles count?
