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! When in grad school, I used to stop at Target at the end of every week as a reward to myself and just walk around- not necessarily even buy anything. :)

    I heart Target so much! My entire house is Target and I love every purchase. Most recently I bought a tall white vase and it has a tree etched in black, it is gorgeous and I can’t decide if I love it because it’s awesome or because it was on sale…kind of a win-win!

    I’M A TARGET LADY! I think my most favorite find at Target was the $100 gallon of milk. You know how it goes at Target…you go in for a quick gallon of milk, and come out with bags full of $100 worth of stuff you never intended to buy! Ahhh Target and their masterful marketing ways :)

    I am a Target Lady! (and I have my mama to thank for that)

    One of my favorite things to do on a Sunday afternoon is to go to Target with my mama, she always exclaims “I love tar-jay” and reminds me how she use to buy me the cutest baby outfits there. Over the years it has become a sort of tradition, and we have countless treasures from sweaters to picture frames to commemorate each lazy Sunday afternoon.

    My greatest score was about 3 years ago…2 lamps that I had really wanted when I first saw them but they were $89 each. A little to high for me. So a few months went by and I went again…they were on clearance for $14.99 each….”SCORE”. I still have them today and they are the best find so far at Tar-Jay!

    I’m a Target Lady! I have five of their baskets with the little chalk boards on them throughout my house. They are great for corralling my daughter’s toys because they are big, sturdy, and hold lots. We have 2 of the round ones and 3 of the square ones. An entire train set fits in one of the squares! We are military, and even if we move and one of them gets broken, we will still have a set of four. Good times!

    I’M A TARGET LADY!!!! My husband thinks I’ll go into withdrawal if I don’t go there at least once a week.
    I’ve had so many awesome scores (of which my friends are often jealous) so it’s hard to choose a favorite.
    here are a few of the house/furniture ones
    – a white bedside stick lamp for $12
    – my tufted white linen-ish headboard for under $200
    – black (p)leather storage bench for $60
    – countless baskets/organizer thingies
    Our most recent purchase isn’t so much of a bargain, but I love it – extension coffee table $150 – it doubles as a desk!

    And although my husband and I zealously search the clearance at Target at least once a week, and have scored many maaany fabulous deals there, I think my favorite find was a black frame with a branch-and-bird painted on the glass… which I found at full price and loved so much I got it anyways. And I’m glad I did, as it quickly disappeared from their shelves!

Then I had my friend embroider their names on them. Oh, and I got them ON SALE after Christmas had ended. So awesome! I’m getting excited all over again just thinking about it! I LOVE ‘EM!
