It’s the season of giving, aka: the season of gifting. Which is why this week’s giveaway from GiftTree.com should come in handy. Fresh blooms always make a room feel more festive and inviting, especially around the holidays. And GiftTree has a great selection of florals with some holiday flair:
And no worries if you’re having trouble deciding whether to send a bouquet to your loved one or just to yourself. The $100 gift card that’s up for grabs means you can actually do both.
Here are all the dirty deets:
- PRIZE: An $100 gift card towards anything on GiftTree.com, including flowers (they’re made by local florists & may vary slightly from the pics).
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “GIFT ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us about a time you were surprised by a gift (whether it was a bouquet of flowers or something else). Maybe your guy got you a dozen roses “just because”? Or you came home to a wrapped present on your half birthday?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 8th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The fifty United States
- 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 Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
******************************
Not only do we have one winner, but everyone can get 10% off any order on GiftTree.com with code YHL10. Happy gifting everyone!
And our lucky winner (as selected by random.org) is… Roshni (who gets surprised often by her husband, so she couldn’t pick just one instance as her favorite). Congrats!

GIFT ME!
My wedding cake looked nothing like it was supposed to, it actually was really not pretty and I cried when I peeked in to see it before the reception. On our one year anniversary my husband had a smaller version of what our wedding cake was supposed to look like made for me. It was the best suprise. This time it was happy tears!

My boyfriend is not the flowers or just-because present type. However, one day he went to the grocery store and came home with some flowers “because they reminded me of you.” So sweet!

One of the best surprises I have gotten is when I first started dating my fiance and he sent flowers to my office just because he was “thinking about me.” I didn’t even know he knew the address! It took me by surprise that I met someone so thoughtful.

Dawn SC says
GIFT ME!
My husband knows ginger ale is the one soda I like and surprised me with some to make me feel better one time when I had a cold. He also knows I avoid eating/drinking corn syrup, so he went out of his way looking through different brands in multiple stores to try to find me some without it. He ended up finding a diet brand that had no sugar and tasted disgusting. But, I definitely appreciated his effort and still smile about it months later. :)
Stephanie says
GIFT ME!
One of my favorite surprises was when my father passed away last year. He had been going through cancer treatments for only a few months, so the loss was a big shock to the family. My sweet friends not only stocked my Mom’s fridge for her – but they hired a cleaning crew to come over and straighten up her house so she could recieve family. It was the most thoughtful gift ever!
Micah says
Gift me!
My favorite gift was when my family couldn’t get a Christmas tree because of flood damage to our home, but my then future mother in law brought one of her two trees to our house the day before Christmas Eve! I have never felt more loved or blessed.

My husband told me he had ordered something for work so we had to go pick it up at the post office. We got there, picked it up, and went back to the car. He told me to open it to check to see if it had arrived ok. IT WAS A KINDLE! FOR ME! :) Awesome gift, awesome surprise.
