Fab Freebie: Market Fresh

***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!

Fresh Home Mag 1

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.

Fresh Home World Market

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…

    I’m fresh!
    Nothing beats jumping off the back of our boat and just floating in my life jacket. My boys say “that’s mom chillaxin’.”

    I like to have a milkshake or some sorbet to keep me cool. (But to keep from all those extra milkshake calories, I will also just stand in front of our window a/c and let it blast me in the face for a few minutes.)

    Fresh 100% cotton sheets on a blanketless bed. Cool, crisp, and very good for a mid-afternoon nap!

    After a run or being out in the heat in the summer nothing beats a nice glass of ice water and stepping into the AC!

    I’M FRESH! – I run my wrists under cool water for a bit. Because your blood is so close to the surface there you cool down quick and feel refreshed faster

    I’M FRESH

    I pack a change of clothes in my purse for long car trips. That way, when I arrive I can immediately swap my sweaty & wrinkled travel clothes for a clean and fresh outfit.

    I’m Fresh! And to cool off nothing beats a cucumber mint mojito. If I’ve got time on my hands, I’ll even put some muddled mint in my ice cubes… Mmmm.

    I love, love, love to take a big glass of lemonade, pull a few sprigs of basil off of the plant outside my backdoor – and make strawberry basil lemonade.

    Try it! You’ll love it.

    I like to clean up the home in the morning when it’s less sticky and hot and then take the kids to the pool as a reward. Add in good icey drink and I”m good!

    I’m Fresh! … and to stay that way in the hot, humidity of Florida, I lounge on my porch swing with my Japanese fan and sip an icy glass of ginger lemonade with a straw of course!

    I’M FRESH! I like to soak my feet in our kiddie pool out back at the end of a long, hot summer day. Cleans my dirty flip-flop feet and refreshes my heated, 8-month-pregnant-self. :)

    I’m Fresh! To feel fresh in the morning I have to brush my teeth and do my hair. Even if it’s just a pony tail, it makes me feel ready to face the day!

    Don’t laugh, but I like to re-curl my eyelashes! It makes me look and feel more awake and fresh!

    I’m fresh! I just bought my first house, and a great big bottle of cold water is all I want after mowing my very own lawn (oooooh!) in this crazy heat!

    I’m fresh!! Even though our Los Angeles summer has been pretty mild this year… iced tea is still my favorite way to feel refreshed. :)

    Coconut & Lime Body Spray helps me at least think fresh during the hot, swampy Charleston heat!
