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 Gentleman!

    There isn’t enough space here to explain all of the great deals we’ve scored at Target. We love all of the things we’ve gotten for our daughter there–clothes, bedding, and even her next Christmas gift.

    I’M A TAR-JAY LADY!!!!!

    The ONLY store I seem to shop at for clothing, shoes, housewares…when I lived in Iowa there was a Super Tar-Jay with GROCERIES!!!!

    The best item I’ve bought recently has to be my black 5-shelf bookcases…easy to put together and look great without breaking the bank.

    Crossing my fingers that I’m picked…thanks for the great giveaway and keep up the great blogging!

    I’M A TARGET LADY – My Target obsession started long before Target was mainstream, oh those clearance end caps!! The best deal I have ever scored was in a back to school/college clearance sale in 2003. I bought four floor lamps (with fabric drop shades) for $3 a pop and four matching table lamps for $2 each. Yeah, we still rock those babies in our current house. I still love them and I would love a $100 gift card too! VIVA LA TARGET :)

    There are no words to describe Target. I get a rush of excitement every time I step in the door! My favorite item would have to be my pillows in our living room. They are down filled and have such a great graphic print. We get compliments on them constantly and people can’t believe they came for Target! (or at least those who don’t know the amazingness that is Target)

    My favorite target find was a large wooden mirror in the clearance section…originally $80, it was marked down (and down and down and down) to $9.99 because the wood was scraped and chipped. I bought it, took some sandpaper to it to give it a “distressed” look, and we get SO many compliments! Gotta love Target!!!
