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.

    Old school is the best- can we call The Beatles a boy band?

    OH BOY!!!

    I grew up in the Backstreet Boys and N*Sync era and I can honestly say I NEVER owned either cd nor liked their bubble gum pop music. I was always a Boys II Men and Mariah Carey fan (still am) and would blast that on the stereo instead. While my friends were wearing t-shirts w/ a huge image of Justin Timberlake or BSB, I was trying to convince them to enjoy “real” music… it never happened, but now I get to tease them about being so obsessed with them ;)

    My fav band when I was younger was NKOTB (yes, I’m an 80’s baby!) Now I’m *slightly* more eclectic in my musical choices but I tend to enjoy upbeat country & pop (Carrie Underwood, Katy Perry) and ‘older’ country (Johnny Cash, Garth Brooks, Shania Twain). All that said, the CD in my car right now is actually my son’s and full of fun songs like “The Ants Go Marching”, “Row Row Row Your Boat”, & “Wheels on the Bus”… yeah, he’s 3 in case you wondered. :-)

    Well, my first ever concert was Boyz II Men, BUT, I had a comeplete LOVE of NSYNC! It was a real obsession, to the point where I actually would watch their music videos over and over just to learn the coreography.

    Plus, we just bought a house and we can’t afford a mower, and we want our neighbors not to hate us!!

    i had a secret love of boy bands…started with NKOTB, continued through B2M and hit it’s peak with NSYNC/BSB. And as much as i make fun of him, i love the Biebs (not really a band, but he’s a boy and super cheesy) and those One Direction boys are so cute! Seriously, i love cheesy music.
