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 score there were these two wall hangings that looked like comic book POW! & BANG! for my husband’s nerdy man-cave. They were on sale, originally they were $20 each, but I got them for $20 for both. & my husband has them hanging next to his Batman/Star Wars/Transformers stuff.

    I’M A TARGET LADY. I go there for everything…we even have a super target…I’m obsessed. On rainy days, I take the kids there and we walk the toy isles to see the latest crazy.
    I’d have to say my favorite purchase from there are our new “clearance” halloween decorations that we stocked up on for next year. The kids are stoked!

    I’m SOOO a Target lady!

    I absolutely love Target and I have several things purchased from there throughout my home. I’m thinking my favorite purchase is a modern quilt by Thomas O’Brian that I bought somewhere around five years ago…it has a nice weight to it and is still in very good shape after all this time. I also love Target’s floor lamps..I have four. And then there’s clothes and candles and… :)

    My favorite Target purchase is my white, waffle weave shower curtain — a classic that provides some refined contrast to my rustic bathroom. I’m also a fan of the Avalon Organics products they’re carrying.

    I’m a Target (we say “tar-jay” around these parts!) lady big time. Over the years I’ve found a ton of treasures, but one purchase that was especially awesome for us (we live in a restored, historic neighborhood with a TEENY, tiny kitchen) was our kitchen island! Awesome price and positively a life saver for the future of our cooking! :)

    My husband and I got a leather club chair from there after our wedding. It was our first “adult” piece of furniture and we absolutely love it, even three years later.

    How can you not love Target? It’s the only place in the world where you go in to buy laundry soap and end up spending at least $40 on random other things.

    I’M A TARGET LADY!!

    I have so many things from Target that it’s hard to pick a favorite buy. However, just this morning I was finishing some laundry and admiring a little zip up jacket that I purchased there last fall and wished I had bought all the other colors too. Isn’t that how it always goes with Target?
    Oh yeah, I do LOVE my Dwell Studio tableclothes turned into drapes for my dining room mini-makeover in progress! They were super budget friendly at $21.99 per window! Cha-Ching!

    I’M A TARGET LADY!! My fav find ever!! was some dishes that I had recently seen in a magazine and loved. I never really thought I’d get them though; it was a beautiful tablescape and in the “right” colors for me, but you know… Then I was shopping along in my Target and there they were! I literally stopped short. They were so fun!! Scallops and polka dots and the “linen” look…. And when I saw the very affordable price, I couldn’t help myself from loading a whole pile of them up in the cart. I replaced my more classic everyday dishes with them and smile very time I get them out. Not as versatile in color, but so very fun! I love them! :)

    My favorite item from them is a red Indian-inspired print tote bag. Despite having dozens of purses, it ends up always being my casual go-to purse. I also have some super cute decorational pieces that stand out in my Eastern themed living room… Target is my faaaavorite department store. They sometimes even have Starbucks in them. Nikki likes.
