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!

Sarah says
GIFT ME!
On my 16th birthday- I came home from school and my parents sent me upstairs to grab something out of my room and I walked in to find a brand new TV hooked up with pretty ribbon and a bow on top. They shocked me bc they had been telling me for weeks that I had to come up with a different request since a TV wasn’t in their budget. They fooled me and I was so shocked- it was great watching them react to my reaction- they were so happy that I was happy :)

j says
Gift me! I recently got flowers, just because. This does not happen often, as my husband is a very practical man and flowers are not practical. Oh the romance! I actually even wrote about them http://jandjhome.blogspot.com/2010/11/have-great-weekend.html

My husband and I had planned a trip back to our hometown to visit friends (which was WONDERFUL in itself) but when we arrived, I soon discovered that he had also planned a surprise 30th Birthday Party for me! I walked in that room, and there were 35 people in there shouting ‘happy birthday’! I was so shocked, I had to sit down and felt wobbly and giddy all night. What a treat!

Lauren E. E. says
Gift Me! I was surprised by how many people sent us something after our son was born. I was expecting some cards, but not gifts, for some reason. It was so thoughtful and made coming home with him even more special. Now I try to pay it forward and send a little something after my friends’ babies are born.
Cara says

GIFT ME!
My favorite gift of all time was from my uncle. My precious yellow lab is named Caymus after my favorite wine from Napa Valley. And when she was just a puppy my uncle showed up at my house with the wooden box they ship Caymus wine in that he had made into a dog bowl for her. I absolutely love it!
Jennifer Rush says
GIFT ME!
My husband never sent me flowers while we were dating, except one day I randomly received a dozen peonies (I love them!!) at work with a note that said “Can’t wait to see you tonight!”
He ended up proposing that night :) Needless to say they have been my FAVORITE flower ever since!!
Catherine says

My husband and I have a long history of bringing home “secret special surprises”–little treats like ice cream & edible luxuries, flowers, or even a Christmas ornament.

Emma Lou says
Gift Me!!
I would say my best surprise gift was on mine and my then-boyfriend (now-husband)’s three year anniversary. We said we’d keep gifts to a $50 limit. I got him a few DVDs and such, and he gave me an engagement ring! I’m pretty sure he went over the $50 max… :-)

GIFT ME!
When we were sixteen, my boyfriend (now husband) picked some little wildflowers and left them in a 7up can beside my car while I was at work. He wrote ‘I Love You’ in chalk beside it. That was 22 years ago, and I’ll never forget it.
