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.

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.

    Hmm…how can I decide what my favorite Target item is?? I frequent Tar-jay on a pretty regular basis- I do love the console and coffee tables I just bought though!

    My favorite thing I scored at target was metal flasks in the men’s gift section several years ago. They were $10 a piece and I took them all to a trophy shop and had them engraved with my friend’s nicknames and gave them out as Christmas gifts. Since I had about 15 engraved, I only paid about $2 a piece. You can’t get a better customized gift for only $12!

    I go there, i’d say a good 5 times a week! The best thing I have scored was a set of 10 shadow box frames for $29. Its been over two years ago and I still hope i’ll pass by a similar set to go on my gallery wall at home! But i’d say 60% of my wardrobe and home accessories are from there!

    My favorite score was a super cushy (and huge!) kitchen mat. It matches perfectly and is a vintage ad for the area we live in. I love it more than is healthy to love something that resides on the floor.

    I would have to say there isn’t one specific thing scored at Target that comes to mind but rather the smorgasbord of availability. To be able to go to one location to get everything is pretty awesome. However I’ve noticed every time I go, even with a list, I find something else extra…… that just has to be thrown into my basket.

    I couldn’t begin to list my best buy from there.. as I am there once a week shopping. My most favorite thing of the moment however, are my new flannel sheets. I got a set of stocking ones, and a set with snowmen. First time I’ve had flannel sheets in almost 16 years, and I am in LOVE.

    I’m a Target lady, so much so that when I had a part time job there several years ago, I told them that instead of a paycheck, I’d just take merchandise. And I was only kidding a little bit.

    PS Happy Birthday!!
