Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Duet To It

| By John Petersik | November 9, 2009 | 2,131 Comments

Fab Freebie: Duet To It

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

Sherry and I have a system when we paint a room. She edges (aka: cuts in) and I roll. We both claim to have the more difficult job- and sometimes I think we’re both right (hello painting brick?), but this week’s prize could prove us both wrong…

Ryobi Couple Painting

The RYOBI Duet Power Paint System is specially made for two people who, like us, enjoy tackling a paint job together. We haven’t taken one for a spin yet, but the idea that both of us could have fresh paint pumped straight from the can to separate his-and-hers painting attachments (a roller for me, an edger for Sherry) almost makes us want to break out our paint swatches again. Heck, there’s even a sprayer attachment if someone’s feeling particularly daring.

Ryobi Duet Paint System

But since we don’t have any looming paint projects to tackle, we want one lucky winner (and their handy painting assistant) to try this puppy on for size. Here’s how to enter:

  • PRIZE: The RYOBI Duet Power Paint System (valued at $116)
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “DUET TO ME” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …tell us your favorite musical duet of all time. Are you all about some old-school Sonny and Cher? Or does the more recent Madonna and Justin Timberlake collaboration rock your world?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 11th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anyone in the lower forty-eight US states
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

**Psst- Want more free stuff? One lucky local can snag two coveted tickets to R. Home For The Holidays where guest speaker Eddie Ross will be chatting about seasonal decor by swinging over to our Facebook page and submitting your entry. We wouldn’t miss it for the world!

    DUET TO ME!

    Best musical duet of all time would be any collaboration between John Lennon and Paul McCartney… ok, so they aren’t known as a duet, but c’mon. You can’t go wrong with the Beatles!

    This prize would be fab fab fab since I still have 6 rooms and a hallway to paint! :)

    My favorite duet of all time- Elton John & Kiki Dee “Dont Go Breaking My Heart.” Such a fun song to sing along to!

    Hope I win- a few rooms still left on my “to-do” list and this would help a bunch!

    Duet to me! My favorite all time musical duo: Myself and my hairbrush! Oh wait… you wanted a famous couple? Simon and Garfunkel. I’m in a fallish mood, and they suit me fine! :)

    I seriously would love this prize.. My husband and I bought a house 2 months ago and are only about 1/2 thru painting the house… we have a (pink) bathroom and 2 bedrooms yet to paint – this would be fabulous for that job! Seriously – random.org – please pick me!

    Duet to me! That is one superb painting device. In our house I do the bulk of the painting. My super sweet husband’s attention span is tiny.

    My favorite duet would be Bonnie Raitt and John Prine doing Angel In Montgomery. Great song!!

    Since I got to see them in concert do this duet, I really enjoy Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s duet to “It’s Your Love.” The fact that they are still married makes the song even sweeter.
