Fab Freebie: The Target Lady

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

I love today. Not just because it’s my 29th birthday, but because we are giving away a gift card to (drumroll, por favor)… TARGET!

We don’t really need to waste time reminding you guys how much we love Target (we’ve got about a million posts like this and this to prove it). I even created this graphic to try to convey how excited we are:

Target 100 Hundred

Can you handle that enthusiasm?

And while I always love a good opportunity to reference SNL’s Target Lady, this time I’m going to mention a different woman paired up with the red bullseye: HGTV’s Sabrina Soto. Sabrina is Target’s “Style Expert for Home,” which means she’s serving up design tips to to those of us who like affordable Tar-jay wares and coming home to a stylish space. She’s even got a bunch of tip-filled videos over on Target’s styleboutique blog.

Target Sabrina Soto

But enough chitchat. Here’s how you can score the hundy dolla gift card:

  • PRIZE: A hundred beans (in gift cards form) to spend at Target!
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M A TARGET LADY” (or “I’M A TARGET GENTLEMAN” if you’re rocking a Y chromosome like me) and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about your favorite item that you’ve ever scored at Target. Do you love it because it’s especially stylish? Especially functional? Or maybe just especially affordable?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 17th 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 as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

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

And our very lucky winner (as selected by random.org) is… Ashley A. (who’s loves and can’t stop seem to buying Target clothes). 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 Target.

    I’m a Target Lady! Target is a dangerous place. I walk in looking for 1 item and usually walk out with 10 things.

    I’M A TARGET LADY!!! . . . I just scored an awesome pitcher that has an Italian vintage country-side feel going on. Definitely looks like it cost a pretty penny. And it went 50% off a week after I bought so I returned and bought it again and saved even more, score!

    I am a target lady. Other than the awesome up and up brand wipes and A&D cream, my favorite target product is the wood curl wreaths in their smith and hawken line. Love those (and we get so many compliments on them too!).

    I love Target! It is the place you go for a single item like dish soap and walk out of with $164 worth of everything else. Love to pick up inexpensive trendy items there.

    No really, I am. I go to Target at least once a week, whether I need to or not. My very best purchase was a set of dishes I bought several years ago….they were considered Christmas merchandise even though the only thing Christmas-y about them was that they were red. So, I was able to get them 75% off at an after Christmas sale, so the whole set cost me less than $25 and I have been using them as my day-to day dishes for the past 6 years!

    I was just there last week and found a large canvas print (like 4’x2′) with a teal and lime green print that will match my baby boy’s room perfectly. I’ve been looking for something for weeks for that room and finally found something. The clencher is that it was originally $50 on sale for $7!! Can’t beat that!

    My favorite thing I ever scored at Target isn’t glamorous–it’s my set of stackable Pyrex mixing bowls with lids. It was on sale for like 12 bucks, holy moley, I use at least one of them every day and they take up no space in my tiny little kitchen. LOVE target.

    The most favorite items I’ve ever purchased at target were two silver lamp bases. They’re the perfect balance between classic and modern; pretty sure I’ll have them forever! They’ve graced my living room, and now they’re in my master bedroom. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them.

    It’s so hard to pick JUST one item that is my favorite from Target since I stop there 2-5 times a week. No joke! It’s sad I know. However, my favorite item that I use everyday has tobe my red Fieldcrest duvet cover that I scored mega on sale after the holidays for $20!!! I love it because the color is so rich, the fabric feels absolutely wonderful and I got a fantastic deal on it. Can’t beat that!

    P.S. Happy Birthday John :)
