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 I know a ton of readers have already said this…but I love the duet with John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John when then sing “You’re the one that I want…” I’m sure there are many other greats, but that’s one of my all time favs.

    I gotta second the mention of Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova from Once. My favorite from the movie is If You Want Me. Her voice is so beautiful and haunting, and hearing his voice echoing in the background at the end… gives me chills!

    Awesome. Giving me goosebumps right now…

    In the process of painting all the rooms in our house and your home and site are the inspiration I needed! You are my favorite new site… glad I found it. I probably would still be living with the peach and periwinkle walls I had last week had I not found it!

    DUET TO ME!!!!
    My favorite duo is a tie between Robert Plant (lead singer for Led Zeppelin) & Alison Krauss and Mark Knopfler (lead singer for Dire Straits) & James Taylor. Both duos are soothing and a perfect mix of the two individual styles.

    As for this giveaway, this would probably make my life 700% easier. We’ve just bought a house. There is so much painting to do, including the kitchen cabinets (sprayer attachment, anyone?)

    Who can ever pass up Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton’s “Islands in the Stream”?

    (I would gladly make my husband belt that one out with me as we put the Duet Power Paint system to good use! There would probably be more Dolly than Kenny, though.)
