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.

    IM A TARGET LADY…..

    I know it’s not house related but last night I scored some pajama pants for $11! They have a coupon on their site for $10 off when you buy three pair. There’s nothing like cozy PJ pants when it gets a little chilly (PS: I’m in Florida, so by chilly I mean below 80).

    I’m a Target Lady!

    Our Target has a full grocery store (with meat and produce) so I get everything at Target!

    One of my favorite decorative items that I purchased at Target are my mercury glass Christmas trees. I can’t wait to pull them out to decorate.

    I’M A TARGET LADY!

    I’m lucky to live a mile away from TWO Targets, so I’m there all the time. My most favorite recent purchase was a set of two egg prints by John Derian – I can’t wait to hang them in my kitchen! Of course, the best part is they were 75% off and hiding under an unassuming display – I love a good Target treasure hunt!

    Always cute deals, but my latest greatest is my favorite tee. Tissue tee I got for $1.50 on clearance in the summer. Recently on sale for $8. A deal either time, but super cheap is always great!!

    I AM A TARGET LADY!!

    My hubby and I found a beautiful crib while dangerously strolling the target isles (the danger comes from entering not needing a thing and leaving with a cart full of Target treasure!). This crib isn’t yet ours but will be soon because that day we decided to try for a baby and our wish came true, we are due in May! So I guess you could say Target helped push us toward becoming Mommy and Daddy for the first time, that and locking in some major sales in the next 9 months!!

    I’m a Target Lady!. One of my favorite purchase from Target is a shoe rack. I’ve used these shoeracks for shoes but also to hold homeschooling books that we use on a daily basis. I use them to hold shoeboxes stuffed with school supplies, electronic cords, paper packs, etc. They are quite handy in our house!

    I’M A TARGET LADY! Oh man, I spent a lot of money there before but now that I have a child I think most of our money goes to the big red bullseye! My favorite thing is probably this cuddly gray cardigan I bought last winter when I was still pregnant because I couldn’t fit into any of my coats! Then I wore it all winter after he was born. Looking at it now just reminds me of those tender early months of baby-hood…

    “Im a Target girl!” I love just about everything at Target but the most recent find was not something I was very fond of. My two year old daughter and I were shopping and she spotted it, a bright flower covered toss pillow. It was love at first sight. Now I know all decorators start somewhere so I am ok with her elementary taste. :) The pillow now lives in our very manly TV room where she plays dolls with it, acts like she is napping or just plain leaves it out for her Mommy to cringe. So thanks to Target I have a really fun memory of my daughter and her first love.

    “I’M A TARGET LADY” It took me a while to think of my fav purchase – but I think it would have to be my swing arm sconces. They are over our bed side tables and look great. At only $30 per lamp what’s not to love!!!!

    The best purchase I’ve ever made at Target was by far our living room drapes. They didn’t have enough in store so I bought the ones they did and the remaining ones on line were on super super clearance. I ended up getting 6 panels for only $30 total!!

    I am a target lady! My husbands birthday is the day after Christmas and my kids and I have a tradition to head over to Target on the 26th bright and early while he is still asleep. Then each of the kids can pick out whatever the heck they want for him from the Christmas clearance section. He usually gets a chess set, a money organizer and some cool type of umbrella. It’s pretty fun! :)

    My most recent favorite item is a pashmina I found on clearance for $9. Everyone “oohs” and “awws” over it when I wear it and ask if I got it at Macy’s or is a “True Religion” brand scarf. I always reply, “It is the very expensive French designer, Tar-jay.”
