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.

    Well, I did like some Backstreet Boys and N’sync songs, I was never a crazy fan – and didn’t own anything more than their cd’s.

    OH>>>>BOY!!!!
    While I’ve had a thing for a few boy bands in my past, I can’t really say that I would have a current fave. But I could probably get into an old school NKOTB album, if I was talked into it.

    Would LOVE this mower, as we are finally ditching apartment life for our first little house. While still a rental, we are super pumped about finally having a yard!!

    I enjoyed more than one boyband. Menudo when I was a Kid, later it was NKOTB and Back Street Boys. I still have and listen to Boyzone. They have some great covers. :-)

    OH BOY!
    Do we need a “REAL” lawn mower! We bought our 1st house in January and have been borrowing my SIL’s “reel-mower” ever since, and if your lawn isn’t “perfect” it just doesn’t cut the job! Who’s lawn is perfect? I’m more excited about getting a mower than my husband ( I asked for one for Mother’s Day!)
    And for Boy Bands….Boyz II Men, Yes Please!!! I believe I still have their single (CASSETTE TAPE) stashed away. I mean what girl didn’t dream of a love like that???
    God Bless you $herdog! Your blogs always make me smile and chuckle!
