***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
This week’s giveaway comes to from two awesome sources of inspiration who are dishing out quite a worldly and wonderful prize for one lucky reader. First up is Fresh Home, one of the few magazines to buck the vanishing shelter pub trend and actually make its debut last year (you may have noticed them in our monthly sponsor shout out last week). This fresh quarterly mag focuses on home improvement and decor ideas for anyone with a finite budget who still wants to make their home beautiful. We can definitely relate. And in a genius turn of events, Fresh Home has teamed up with one of their (and our) favorite sources, Cost Plus World Market, to score an $100 gift card for one lucky YHL reader!
The great thing about Cost Plus World Market is that they’ve got such a wide range of offerings that you could practically do a whole room from there without it looking matchy-matchy in the least. They have everything from couches, coffee tables, and rugs to pillows, lighting, and accessories. Heck, we even purchased the seat cushions for our new office makeover and the rug in our master bedroom there.
So here’s the full monty on how you can enter this week:
- PRIZE: $100 gift card to Cost Plus World Market courtesy of CPWM and Fresh Home Magazine.
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M FRESH” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … since the summer heat means feeling fresh is a rarity these days, why not tell us what you do to freshen up. A nice cool shower to start your day? A tall glass of lemonade when you come in from the heat? Or maybe a quick deodorant swipe or some mouthwash between meetings?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, August 18th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United 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…

It’s not been that hot in LA recently, actually. I just stay out of the sun during the awful hours and it’s all good :)
rachel says
I’M FRESH!
there’s nothing more refreshing than a nice glass of classic iced tea. double-strength english breakfast tea (brewed hot, of course), lemon wedge, bruised mint, and a pinch of sugar in a tall glass filled with ice. i can sit outside in the 90 degree atlanta heat and feel totally refreshed as long as i have that!

Spring says
I’M FRESH!
Since we moved to the PNW from Texas we’ve been pretty cool (comparitily) until this week when temps got up into the 90’s. Not a big deal until you realize hardly anyone has air conditioners in their homes UGH! Yesterday I got the girls a kiddie pool on sale and maneuvered the slide Songhai could have a mini Wet N Wild in the back yard. :)
When the weather turns cool again I’ll use it for a watering trough for our bazillion dogs.

“I’m Fresh!
I live very close to the beach. So, after heating up on the sand, and then cooling off in the ocean, I just love getting home, taking a cool shower, putting on a light cotton dress, putting my feet up, and sipping a glass of iced tea. It just doesn’t get any fresher feeling than this! : )
Melody says
I’M FRESH!
Frozen lemonade keeps us cool.
Annika K says
I’m fresh when the fan blows in my face and my drink still has ice-cubes in it!

I’m Fresh! I love to hop in the pool with my hubs while our little long hair Chihuahua runs some major laps around us. We just found out we’re having a baby so we couldn’t be having a cooler summer if we tried! :)

I’m fresh! The key for me is just getting my hair up off my neck.

Oops! Forgot to add my bonus answer! To keep cool in South Florida in the summer I stay indoors and nest! We pay dearly for our great weather in the ‘winter’, by having to endure the heat of the summer! I’M FRESH!
Kate says
I’m FRESH! And I spent a ridiculous $14 on PASTA at WM last night. It was just so cool and called “Mother-in-Law’s Tongue.” I’m going to serve it with homemade pesto when the in-laws come to visit. I stay cool with a cold glass of white wine after a long day at work.
Candice says
I’M FRESH and green! We cool off with a giant fan instead of air conditioning which works well since our house is nicely shaded by trees keeping things several degrees cooler than the surrounding neighborhood!
