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.

    My favourite purchase so far is a skeleton nutcracker I got on sale for $10 during this Halloween. He’s so awesome that he has a permanent place on my mantle year round.

    There are so many favorites at target, but one of the many is the cute selection of doggie clothes and treats in the dollar bins at the front of the store! They always have chihuahua sized clothes at a great price!

    This is such a great giveaway!!! I mean really, who doesn’t love Target? I’ve gotten a lot of great deals there, but the best by far is a $3 skirt I bought 3 years ago that I STILL get compliments on. PRICELESS!

    My favorite Target steals would have to be 2 super-cheap, modern lamps we scored that have moved with us from our first apartment, to our current townhouse, and hopefully one day will sit in a house we own.

    My favorite Target purchase was a rounded-square recycled glass bowl. I saw it one day at Target, but I didn’t buy it right then. That night, and subsequent nights, I dreamed about it. Luckily, when I went back to Target, it was on sale! I use it for everything from produce to Halloween candy to holiday ornaments.

    My best buy from Target has been the folding Dolce bookcase – I have 3 now and am eying a fourth. I have moved 8 times in the last 8 years and these babies fold up and move easily and they still look as good as new. I also have the Dolce console table, desk, filing cabinet, and coffee table. All were good buys.
