Fab Freebie: Here’s Looking At You, Mate

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

Good news: everyone can get 10% off their MirrorMate order with code VIRAL. And if they get 1000 new Facebook followers or new email subscribers, that code doubles to 20% for everyone. But here’s the better news (at least for one of you): random.org has chosen our winner as… Jessica (who says she’s usually checking the mirror to “make sure nothing is obviously out of place or gross”). Congrats!

So maybe I fudged that line from Casablanca a little. Thanks for letting it slide. It’s turning out to be a mirror-tastic day today, so if you’re stuck with a basic builder mirror that’s held up unceremoniously by dinky plastic clips, this is your shot to score an easy and elegant upgrade thanks to MirrorMate. You can customize a frame that sticks right over your existing clips, for a nice little mirror makeover. Check out more before & afters (and shop their collection of frame styles) here on their site (and on their Facebook page).

Mirror Mate Giveaway

  • PRIZE: A $200 gift certificate to MirrorMate, which will cover most frames.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “LOOK AT ME! and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … confess what you spend the most time looking at when you’re in front of a mirror. Are you always fixing your hair? Doing outfit checks? Making sure nothing’s in your teeth. Or – be honest – are you constantly leaning in to examine every last pore on your face?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 8th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The US and Canada
  • 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 winners. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from MirrorMate.

    Well, now that I’m pregnant (due October 23rd), I always check out my growing belly!

    Outfit checking is the primary purpose of my mirror gazing – gotta make sure nothing’s popping out all crazy-like!

    LOOK AT ME!

    I usually get awestruck (but not in a good way) by how many grey hairs I have at 31!

    My new (to me) master bath features those builder mirrors and dinky clips, and it’s the first thing i want to re-do!
    This would be amazingly perfect! Thanks tons. :)

    LOOK AT ME! I spend most of my mirror time messing with my hair especially lately since I’m trying to grow my bangs out. I keep obsessing over trying to get them to look good during this in-between phase.

    Always checking my hair – I always have to work on it to look decent. But the mirror is kind of rusty/ stained in the corners so I often get distracted…must do something about this!

    LOOK AT ME! I’m borderline narcissistic…I’m constantly staring at myself if there’s a mirror in the room. Just trying to make sure I don’t look like a wreck :) Just following the lessons of Ice Cube, you better check yourself before you wreck yourself.

    Look at me…leaving a comment on the blog that I totally blog-stalk.

    I am usually looking in the mirror to do outfit checks. Carrying babies/kids around all day, making lunches and doing “projects”, can really dishevel a girl.

    I have 4 builder grade mirrors sitting atop the bathroom cabinets, waiting and waiting for frames while we wait for $ to frame them. When I look in the mirror, I wish, I wish so hard, that the mirror would lie and show me as thin as Twiggy (before your time, younguns :)

    By the way, just discovered your blog and I LOVE IT!!! We’re a military family and we’re about to move for the 6th time in 8 years (5th state in that time). Can’t wait to get to our new house and try out some of what I’m learning from you two!
