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! My favorite target buy was a blue sweater that I got like 3 years ago? Maybe more? I still wear it all the time, so I’d say definitely worth the $20 or so that I paid for it!

    “I’M A TARGET LADY” i have 2 things! 1. is 2 square ottomans that you can use as a footstoll or flip the top over to use as a table! They are amazing, and were about 1/3 of what other stores charge. And some boots that were only $50 and are super comfy and stylish. i love target!

    “I’M A TARGET LADY”

    What is not to love, but the thing that probably holds the best spot in my heart is a 2 tier platter that sits on our counter to hold fruit and non-refrigerated vegetables. The plates are this really cool leaf design. It took me forever to find one that would fit under the cabinets and then one day visiting not “my” target this one smacked me right in the face and said “take me home” plus for like $20 I couldn’t resists.

    If i had a time machine, I would go back and buy ten pairs of the isaac mizrahi pants that I’ve been wearing for about ten years. They’re my fave and I may shed a tear the day that I have to see them go.

    Let’s see…this can be tough…we go to Target alot and love, love, love to peruse the clearance stuff on the endcaps. One of my most recent purchases was a wicker box for my hubby’s dresser ~~ I got tired of having to move so many little things when I would dust. I scored the perfect size & shape during one random visit to Target! It wasn’t clearance or even on sale, but it “fit the bill” perfectly and we are now both happy!!!

    I am DEFINTELY one loyal TARGET CHICA!

    How does a person pick one item they scored from Target as a great steal — my side tables, kitchen stools, entry way table, shelves, end cap clearance items and decorations, office gear….I COULD GO ON!

    I guess my favorite thing to snatch up every year would be the clearance Halloween items…with a People magazine on the side :)

    It is impossible to narrow down my favorite item that I’ve scored from Target, but for you guys, I will try. ( Insert Jepordy music here.) Ok, even though I’m mildy obsessed with the clothing I’ve gotten over the years, we’re talking sweater’s galore, my favorite all time purchase would have to be from Rachel Ashwell’s Simply Shabby Chic Line. I bought a white duvet and all the works. It makes me happy every day, and every night:)

    I’M A TARGET LADY!!! I LOVE Target. I go there at least once a week and have been there up to 4 times in one week. Most of the stuff in my house is from Target. As far as the bonus question goes, its hard to pick just one item or deal. My favorite deals to get though are to go when the “Global Bazaar” items (that show up after Christmas) go on clearance. A couple of years ago, right after we bought our first house, I got a fantastic mirror for our entry way and some cool decorative items for on top of our kitchen cabinets.

    I use a trip to target as a form of therapy. Anytime I am having a bad day I just go wander around target for an hour and so and I feel much better. My favorite scores from target are when they have the toy clearance events twice a year. I get lots of bday and christmas gifts at a great price.

    I agree it would be hard to pick one item since my house is pretty much filled with Target purchases. If I had to name one…I bought a file cabinet recently, which allowed me to clean up about 2 years worth of “important” papers. Yay for organization!

    Holy Hot Dog, you guys have 172 pages of comments, could thing you use a random program to choose. That would be hard to pick.

    I love a black and white picture I got about six years ago at Target on sale, $4 bucks and then in 2008 I got a cute pair of red flats there for less than $29..affordable shoe wear that is cute and lasts? CHECK.
