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!!!!

    I can’t name one specific thing that I absolutely love from Target. Maybe it’s because of the fact that once I go in there, I can’t get out without spending at least $70 bucks on goodies. I also love the fact that no matter where I go in the US, a Target is not far away :)

    I’m a Target lady! My favorite Target find is a pillow we use on our bed in the winter – it’s a corduroy moose in front of some mountains, made by Woolrich. It sounds incredibly tacky, but I swear it isn’t!

    We love our Target storage ottomans (I think I noticed you have the same ones?). We put all our board games etc in one and all our work out equipment in the other (weights, yoga mat, kettlebell, etc) and have them right there in our living room as movable “coffee tables/footrests”, ready to be used at a moment’s notice! Wish I opened up the work-out equipment ottoman a little more often…

    Oh – and I must admit – I do love their dollar bin cotton candy… yumm!!! :)

    I’M A TARGET LADY!” – In fact I was just there yesterday buying some awesome Bunko prizes :)

    FAVORITE TARGET DEALS LATELY? My set of “Live” “Love” & “Laugh” mini vases I got in the dollar bins for $2.50. We just went neutral with our paint & furniture in the kitchen & living room and I have kept my eye out for a few teal/turquoise accents to add to my current accessory color scheme. They look so cute sitting on the sill above my kitchen sink with fall-colored clippings from my crepe myrtles.

    Also, the large wood tray I needed for my ottoman in the living room (I have lots of trays, but none of them were big enough). Happened upon the last one on a bottom shelf for 70% off!!

    I love how I go in for one thing I need and somehow end up walking out with about 10 other items I “needed!!”

    Best buy there….probably a pair of tan, flat, tall boots that I got after season a few years back for $4 and some change! I live in those puppies in the fall/winter!! Just wish I would have grabbed an extra pair (or two) because their starting to look rather worn!!

    So many of the things in my home were purchased from Target so it is impossible to have a favorite – our TV console, the TV! (lol), the mirror in our bedroom, our kitchen table and chairs, our bedding, pillows, I can go on and on! Now that we are expecting I can’t wait to shop for the little one’s nursery!! I already know how I’d spend the $100!

    I’m a Target lady. Best buy: A bed-in-a-bag set on clearance, which happened to contain one extra pillowcase. With the extra pillow case and the dust ruffle — the bed didn’t require the latter — I was able to make a one-of-a-kind window treatment for the one window in the room. Thus, Target provided a serendipitous bonus with an otherwise already better-than-reasonable purchase!
