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.

    Not sure if this is the best deal I’ve ever scored, but it’s certainly one of the most recent. We’re expecting our first baby in January and we went to Babies R Us to look at cribs. We found one we liked but were told it was discountinued and couldn’t be ordered. After discussing with the manager, we were able to take the floor model (after a thorough inspection to ensure all the parts were there and working) for 15% off, plus use our one-day-only 25% off coupon. We saved nearly 40% on a brand spankin’ new crib AND got to take it home that day!!

    the best deal I ever scored was definitely our house. It was in need of a little love (and a lot of renovation) but even with the money we’ve put into the repairs, we haven’t even spent half of what it’s worth!

    I got a dress for $0.25 one time because it was deeply discounted, and I had to return a skirt that was only $9.00. However, I couldn’t get my money for the skirt because the 90-day return period had passed, but they let me swap the skirt for the dress. Yay!!

    I’m HAUTE…and bothered! (sorry)

    My best score would have to be a vintage Breakfast at Tiffany’s in-theater poster that a friend who worked at a printers literally found in a tube in a storage room for me. It’s one that the theater was supposed to return to the studio, but I guess it never went back.

    Priceless, unique and from my all-time favorite movie. Definitely a score.

    I’M HAUTE! We love a good deal and regularly shop clearance, with coupons, etc. I can’t think of the best deal we’ve ever gotten, but just recently I got three “big pack” boxes of pampers diapers (usually $24.99 per box) for just $14.00 thanks to sales and coupons. That was $65.00 worth of diapers for $14.00! Because of the stage of life we’re in with our daughter, that was a really big deal for us. It’s the little things like that that add up fast. We love coupons!

    I’m HAUTE! And in need of new things for a new house!!! We’re still deciding between two, but will more than likely be in a new house in a few months – so excited :)

    Best deal? Has to be a solid wood bed frame/headboard/footboard we scored at a huge yard sale two years ago. Cheap since they wanted to get rid of it and free for us since my parents bought it for us as part of our anniversary gift. It’s beautiful and in great shape.
