Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Boys In The Yard

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 must say I’m a true fan of *NSYNC. Even as an “adult” I still blast “I want you back” during my treadmill sessions!

    I had a poster of Justin Timberlake in my bedroom! However, I didn’t enjoy all of their songs (as a group). I LOVED New Edition. They’re back on tour! Can you believe it?

    I hate to admit it, but “I Want it That Way” by the Backstreet Boys was a high school hit.

    OH BOY! New Kids on the Block rocked my world and I truly believed that I would catch up in age to Joe McIntyre so we could get married.

    It would be amazing to win a lawnmower as we move from a townhouse into our first house with a yard this summer!

    Backstreet boys was by far the best. Went to a concert in High School in Charlotte, NC, and I’m pretty sure Brian and I made eye contact when he was zip-lining down to the stage (of course I’m sure it didn’t happen :)

    NSYNC all the freaking way. I saw them in concert 5 times (Justin once on his own) and they occupied a significant portion of my time/thoughts in high school.
