Fab Freebie: So Haute In Here

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***

Who doesn’t love a sale? Especially when it’s to the tune of 50-75% off retail. Well that’s exactly how HauteLook rolls when it comes to creating 48-hour deeply discounted sales on home items (as well as clothing and beauty stuff too). A new sale pops up every morning at 11am EST, but here’s a sampling of what was up for grabs last week:

Hautelook Tiles

And one of you is gonna get $100 to spend on HauteLook this week, meaning you could snag items like an $850 graphic rug for just 80 bucks out of your own pocket. Not too shabby…

Hautelook Rugs

Here’s how to enter:

  • PRIZE: $100 towards anything on HauteLook.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M HAUTE” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about the all-time best deal you’ve ever scored. Was it an incredible sale that landed you a deep discount? Or maybe you bartered your way to something for free?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 20th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 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…

******************************

This giveaway’s random winner is… Valerie J (who’s scored a $4000 Restoration Hardware armoire for only $315 just because the top crown molding was busted). Congrats!

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from HauteLook.

    I’M HAUTE!! The best deals I have gotten have usually been at auctions — especially when the weather is kind of bad and not many people come. Get some great deals then on furniture that people want to move fast out of the rain….

    I’m not sure if this is the “best deal” I’ve ever scored, but a few months ago I was looking to buy the Ektorp love seat from Ikea for $479. Before I splurged, I decided to check out Craigslist, in case someone decided to sell one for a lot less. Well, it must have been my lucky day because I found one, in the color I was looking for, in almost perfect condition for just $100!

    I’m haute! The best deal I ever got was on…baby socks. That’s right, baby socks. The pack of 6 was originally $12 and I scored it for 70 cents. As it turned out, they don’t stay on my daughter’s feet, so they weren’t such a great deal after all.

    We were redoing our bathroom and were looking at $200+ for a new sink top. We happened to see an ad on Craigslist for a local company that was selling cast offs and bought a perfect one for us for $50!

    On Lowe’s website they had an unbelievable deal for a Whirlpool front loading washer/dryer. I printed out the ad and went to my local Lowe’s. It was unbelievable alright, because it was a mistake. The store had to honor the price. I also won my dining room set from a local furniture store when the Red Sox won the World Series!

    I’m Haute! My most recent best deal was a couple of weeks ago when I was lookin’ to buy some organic potting soil for some fall landscaping projects. I stopped in at Wal Mart (not my favorite place) because my budget was super small. Turns out they sell their open bags of landscape materials for way cheap just to move the product. It’s not advertised, you have to ask for it. I scored a bag of organic manure and humus for .96 and a gigantic bag of organic potting soil for $2.50. The $5 budget I had went a long way that afternoon. Both me and my garden were pretty stoked.

    The best deal(s) I scored were picture frames from a town wide garage sale a few weeks ago… We wanted to do a gallery wall in our living room, but didn’t want to spend an arm and a leg. We hit up the local garage sales and scored 12 big frames for about $30! The best thing is they are all unique and are going to look great on our wall!

    Hands down, best deal was $100 for a beautiful wood table from Pottery Barn…and 6 matching chairs! They were a craigslist find from a woman trying to downsize- we didn’t even know they were Pottery Barn until I flipped the chair over and saw the $199 price tag per chair!

    I shop Hautelook on the reg, can’t begin to name all the awesome deals on there… best yet however, wasn’t at Hautelook, instead it was at a merchandise collection and resale place (the guys that buy up good stuff that still smells smoky after a fire or has water stains on it from a flood. I found a current season DVF dress for $30, and an Ethan Allen couch that was a Katrina victim retail $3400 for … $250!!
