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 and my favorite Target score has to be this cool little woven basket that was marked down like crazy. I store several really large blankets in it and it’s had a place next to my couch in 3 different homes!

    I’M A TARGET LADY!

    I love going to Target for everything from furniture to greeting cards. My favorite items I’ve gotten are probably storage ottomans (I know you guys agree you need some of those around!) – they’re extremely functional and very affordable. My friends and I also seem to have a tradition of buying stylish and/or fun and/or ridiculous seasonal items at Target to send to each other every few months. Nothing better than a home-related (and affordable!) care package. :-)

    By the way – happy birthday!! Hope it was a great one. :-)

    Oh my goodness, talk about loving Target. Funny I’m reading this at the same time I’m wiggling my toes in my bed – which happens to be made with a set of Target sheets. THEY ARE SOOOO SOFT! I’ve spent much much more money on other sheets, but these 325 count white ones rock my socks off (literally, my feet can’t get enough of the softness). As my favorite Target check-out woman says: Stay on Target!

    I’m a target lady! I love their Thomas O’Brien stuff. We registered for the bedding when we got married, and my favorite thing was this throw blanket. It is a bit grey and a bit beige – keeps you cool in the summer and warm in the winter – all household members (two human and three feline) fight over it. It is the perfect blanket and I wish I had another one!

    I shop at Target SO much it’s hard to choose! So I’ll just go with the most recent ;) My fav Target item has to be my brand new area rug – marked 35% off for being repackaged after someone had previously purchased the rug online and returned it at the store! My luck day!!!

    Well.. I shop at Target for a million things but if I had to pick my favorite thing… it would have to be my pair of black lamps with black & white swirled shades. Or I could be super practical and say I am so thankful for their generic “up” brand children’s medicines! :) All of their generics are actually great!

    Hard to tell my favorite, there are too many to count. But my most frequent is probably dog toys. I think I am incapable of coming home without a new dog toy from Target. I have 4 dogs, so we go through a lot of toys!
