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.

    I’m a Target lady! My favorite thing was a wooden tv armoire that had been marked down from $149 to $79. Not sure if it was a mistake because I noticed it on regular price a year later?? It was a super find since we were poor newlyweds, fresh out of college, and our tv was previously on a huge cooler.

    Too difficult to narrow down to ONE item! A year or so ago they tried out a ‘high-end’ line of furniture of sturdy, real wood. I invested in two side tables that could have been purchased at Pottery Barn – and they’re great!

    I’M A TARGET LADY!!!!!

    I recently was on the hunt for a cheap (but functional) French press. I had never had coffee made this way but a friend suggested I try it. So after deciding that I was gonna give it a whirl, I was disappointed to discover that the cheapest press I could find was in the $30-$40 range. The next day I went to Target to look for something completely different when I stumbled upon a French press on the clearance shelf. It was a great deal… Originally $29 marked down to $6.34!!!! Needless to say I love my new French press!

    Unfortunately I can never pick favorites, so a few of my favorite Target buys: an eco-friendly set of bamboo make-up brushes that are just right, a super soft (affordable) yellow cardigan that makes me feel very teacher-y, healthy and yummy Kashi frozen meals, … the list could go on…

    The best deal I ever found at Target was a round mirror with tiny little round mirrors inset around the edges. (Sounds weird but it is awesome!) It was $99 marked down to $29. I almost ran to the checkout.

    I’m a Target Lady…to the core! Was just there today in fact. I even banned myself from the store for a sorry month in 2009 in an effort to save money (it worked, but I had MAJOR withdrawals!) So many good deals come to mind – probably my biggest score was a perfect fit long tweed coat on clearance for $12.98. Love the bullseye baby!

    best score: my comforter, i spent over a year drooling over a certain style and color (slightly floral, green and yellow with red accents on a beige background) but couldn’t afford the designer prices. Until something almost identical to what I envisioned came out at target :)

    I’M A TARGET LADY! My favorite Target purchase is a wooden side table. The purchase was inspired by the West Elm tree stump side tables. I waited for it to go on sale, but snatched it at full price (still less than half of WE) because I knew I’d be mad at myself for waiting too long and missing out.

    I should write I am a Target-obsessed lady…. I have been able to find some amazing steals there. My top two: All 23 tables at our wedding reception were donned with candle centerpieces that were seasonal items on clearance… I ransacked every Target in the state of Texas for them!

    I also have a little one just a month older than Clara, and we were able to get her crib half-price because they had marked it wrong! The squeaky wheel almost always gets the oil!!

    Ok so my favorite purchased Target items were these Z-shaped stemmed martini glasses. They are classic but with a chic twist. I love them!
