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 am a TARGET LADY!! My favorite thing that I have purchased from Target (so far) is a bowl. It was less than $2 and I use it almost everyday. It has a beautiful, modern pattern on it and is deep enough to hold a delicious bowl of homemade soup! I love my bowl and my soup! Thank you for the opportunity to buy more cool things from Target!! -V

    Target, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways…

    I think I go to Target at least once a week, sometimes more! I’ve gotten lots of awesome things there, but I think the two best things were my beautiful and inexpensive Dolce dining table and these two camel velvet storage ottomans I use as a coffee table. I also just got a dark brown duvet cover for $8. Eight bucks, people!

    I’M A TARGET LADY! My favorite Target score is an over-the-door hook rack I got from their college collection about 4 years ago. I would buy another one if they ever carried it again because it would be so useful at work, but I am not giving up the one I already have.

    I’m a Target lady!!! I absolutely love everything I get at Target, even tissues and toothbrushes, because it means I’ve spent some time in my fav store. But the best thing I’ve ever gotten was a set of salt and pepper shakers shaped like Christmas trees- they were $0.67 in January :) LoVe :)

    I’m a TARGET Lady! So much so, that one time my neighbors saw me pulling out of the driveway after what they knew had been a particularly bad day. They asked “Are you going to Target to cheer yourself up?”

    My fave score from Tarjay is a ha-uge (9×6’ish) rust colored rug that I found on super-clearance for …. $19.00! When I spotted the marked down price, I summoned my super-strength and sprinted to the checkout line – no cart required – before the shopping gods stopped smiling upon me.

    I’M A TARGET LADY! There are so many great deals to choose from, but I guess the absolute best sits in my bedroom, alongside its twin. I’m talking about beautiful five drawer dressers that were from the line that is owned by Thomasville. I bought them at 75% off many years ago, which was about $12 and change each! They have served us well over the years.

    I love Target. My favorite thing is my tv stand. It was really inexpensive but it looks like a much nicer piece of furniture. I get compliments all the time on it and no one can believe it’s from Tar-jay.
