Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Gone Fishing

Fab Freebie: Gone Fishing

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Our two lucky winners as selected by random.org are… Susie (who doesn’t like fish, despite her former employment at Red Lobster) and Sarah (who especially loves Maryland crab, shrimp, salmon, and freshly caught smoked trout). Congrats ladies!

Back when I lived in Brooklyn there was this cool dishware store down the street called Fishs Eddy that I loved. Last Christmas I even bought Sherry two coffee mugs from there. And now, in what can only be called a full circle moment, we’re teaming up with them for a giveaway for you guys. They’ve got tons of fun colorful patterns so we’ve put together three around-$50 prize packages of our favorites: the Food Bank pattern (which benefits the NYC Food Bank), the always-classic 212 New York Skyline pattern, and the playful Charley Harper pattern. So each of our TWO winners will get to pick their favorite collection and take it home.

Fishs Eddy Giveaway

  • PRIZE: One of the following sets of Fishs Eddy dishware: (1) Food Bank set including dishtowel, two mugs, and a set of four sauce dishes, (2) New York Skyline set including salt & pepper shakers, a charger, and a set of four 15oz glasses or (3) Charley Harper set including one fish mug, three fish sauce dishes, and a set of four sunset glasses
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FISH ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …where do you stand on seafood? Have you never met a piece of salmon, fried shrimp, or crabcake you didn’t like? Or do you avoid fish like the plague (perhaps because it tastes “too fishy” or you’re a vegetarian)? Maybe you fall somewhere in the middle and only enjoy specific seafood dishes?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 5 at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States & Canada (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • 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 on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Fishs Eddy.

    Fish me! We live on the Gulf Coast so we are always fishing in the summer and sometimes fall. Speckled Trout is our favorite. It is a mild white fish.

    Yay a Canadian giveaway!

    I love all kinds of seafood; cod, haddock, mussels (probably my fav!), crap, lobster, scallops. I have my moments with salmon, sometimes I try it and I don’t like it, other times I love it. It all depends (and I’m not sure exactly what it depends on! haha)

    I try to stay away from seafood. I think it is “too fishy” tasting. I will occasionally have fried catfish, but that is about all I can handle. :)

    I love fish! Salmon, scallops, sushi, shrimp (who doesn’t like shrimp??), tuna, trout, I’ll take it all. Anyone who doesn’t like fish hasn’t had it fresh. Or, they haven’t had fresh macadamia-encrusted mahi mahi…..mmmmm…..

    This is incredible! I’m a fish biologist and work with the critters every day, so they play a big role in my life–though as a vegetarian I don’t eat ’em.

    Fish me please!

    We actually made crab legs at home last night because my husband lurrrrrves them. I could take ’em or leave ’em myself. I absolutely love calamari and salmon and I am mildly allergic to the iodine in uncooked, unshelled shrimp which I found out the hard way when my mother-in-law pressed me into shelling/deveining service.

    I haven’t met a piece of FRESH seafood that I haven’t loved. And being a good New England girl, I can crack a lobsta’ like a pro. Even my husband was like “wow honey, you have some mad lobster skills”. Yip!
