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.

    It’s hard to pick just one thing since we are pretty much a target house. I love getting holiday stuff on clearance right after the holiday is done. I’ve got some great christmas and halloween stuff that way.

    I had had my eye on an adorable end table for weeks, then one day while cruising the aisles I found said table on clearance because it had a scratch on the edge. I brought home the little guy for only $30 bucks, versus the suggested retail value of $90. I just used a brown markup believe it or not & poof! scratched edge is nowhere to be seen!!

    I’M A TARGET LADY” Tell you my favorite item? That’s a hard question to answer. I love everything I’ve purchased from Target starting with my Bay Shore Collection Half Moon/ round hall table to my Delano desk to my faux leather storage ottoman; it’s all stylish and in perfect proportion for my living space, not to mention affordable and I even had a coupon. Ka-ching!

    So pic one thing huh? Not sure if I can. But recently it was our media stand for our bedroom. Not more store brand items are not the greatest quality but the Target furniture was awesome. Actual screws and nails instead of weird locking mechanism….yes please! Love it!

    I’m a Target Lady! I was wandering the aisles 3 years ago and found an inflatable, 10 foot pool for $30 on clearance! It came with a pump, cover, and is still going strong after 3 summers on our back patio. It especially came in handy during my pregnancy last summer!

    Awesome! “I’M A TARGET LADY!” I love Target, beats the pants off Wal-Mart for classy, fun decorating. I was just there today (in Matthews, NC) and bought a white faux rabbit throw for $24.99. I’m a photographer and I’m going to photograph a newborn tomorrow. I bought it because I think it’ll be perfect to lay him on. Then it’s going on my couch!

    I’M A TARGET LADY!!! And are you seriously expecting me to narrow it down to just ONE awesome deal I got at Target??? :-P I love my silver snowflake dishes I got on clearance one year so much that I have paid full price to add pieces the last couple years (hoping to score the new creamer and sugar bowl I saw this year).

    My son loves his 3 baseball beanbag chairs that were clearanced from $30 to $5, and then we got them to take an additional 15% off because they were pretty dirty (but I got them clean with little effort).

    And the list goes on… :)

    LOVE Target! :) Thanks for the giveaway!

    Oh my gosh – “I’M A TARGET LADY” and then some. Since the economy has hit us pretty hard, we have to stay away from the store, just so we don’t leave with things we don’t REALLY need. One of my favorite Target finds were our placemats! Our dishes are black, white and silver & our napkins are black, however, our dining room isn’t black OR white. So we found a wonderful silvery-grey placemat that looks amazing on our table. Love them!

    I hit up Target almost everyday. I always check out all the inside end isle displays-that’s where the awesome clearance stuff is.
    I buy almost everything from there so it’s hard to narrow down my favorite thing. So I will go with a couple of my good deals:
    $1.49 for a Tavern Lady costume (AKA a Beer Wench)
    $1.29 for my dog’s Ram costume (wish I could post pictures here, if I win I will send you the picture)
    Also I had bought a $60 twin bed set for my first daughter and when daughter number two came around, grew out of a crib and shared a room with daughter #1 I found a matching set for only $17.59!!!! Loved it!
