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

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!

    My favorite musical duet of all time is my husband and I singing. it sounds cheesy – but we are constantly harmonizing – kind of like Andy from the Office, only without the formal training.

    Duet to me!
    So many favorite duet pairs-
    Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood, Joey Ramone and Holly Vincent, Lemmy and Wendy O’Williams…but probably my favorites are Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell, so many great songs by those two – Your Precious Love, You’re All I Need To Get By, Ain’t No Mountain High Enough (borrowed by Amy Winehouse), Heaven Must Have Sent You. All great music to paint to!

    DUET TO ME!!!

    I’ve always liked the Natalie/Nat King Cole duet, I’m a daddy’s girl at heart and he’s a big Nat King Cole fan.

    But then again – I also like the fun/funky duets you get when you mix very different artists through the Crossroads duets.

    DUET TO ME… What a great product!! We could definitely use this because I always have J roll to reach the higher walls.

    I am almost too ashamed to admit it, but my favorite duet is “Islands in the Stream” by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton. It goes back to growing up. I used to sing it, while wearing cowboy boots naturally, with my uncle before he passed. I told my parents that J and I were going to use it as our first dance song, and I thought they were going to tackle me to make sure it wouldn’t happen. I was kidding, of course.

    Given that we’re building a house right now and in just a few short weeks we will be painting the entire thing, this paint system would be AWESOME!!! What a timesaver! My favorite duet (don’t laugh) is Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton on “Islands in the Stream”. Their voices blend beautifully on that song.
