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 lady… my favorite purchases (lamely) were the tons of free single serving cereals we got after coupons. A little less lamely, I’m also a big fan of the faux-leather ottoman we got there for a great price.

    “I’M A TARGET LADY” – At LEAST once a week. My favorite item I got there recently was my set of silk curtains in the PERFECT color to match a headboard I made myself some years before. It completely brought the old room back to life and made a great place for my mom to relax after a hospital stay. And they were CHEAP.

    I scored a children’s wooden toy chest for $15 clearance when the full price was $80. And they only had one for the clearance price and still a couple for the full price.

    The best thing I’ve ever scored at Target was 600 Pampers Crusiers for $60. It was last Christmas and Pampers was switching out their “old crusiers” for the new ultra-thin ones and I randomly found a Target that had about 8 HUGE boxes on deep clearance plus I had a slew of coupons to add on. With 2 kids in diapers, it was a total score to not have to buy diapers for about 3 months!

    I have this awesome pair of boots that I got on clearance for $15. They’re super cute, they’re comfy despite 3″ heels, they’re so waterproof that they’re my rainy day shoes, and everyone thinks they’re leather instead of cheap plastic. Best $15 I ever spent.

    P.S. Happy birthday, John!

    I am the TARGET LADY!!!!

    My checkbook has Target in it so many times weekly, I should own stock in Target. Our best deal was buying a Dyson animal, they had it on sale for $429 and it is my favorite thing I have ever purchased there. I know, I am crazy, but I LOVE vacuums. Target is the only store I shop, besides a grocery store. My family makes fun of me, but that’s OK.

    I’M A TARGET LADY!

    While there on one of my near-daily trips, I found a sham I’d seen online and loved 10x more in person! It is a white sham with zinnia stamps in various shades of blues, aquas, and greens, and it is totally the color inspiration for my son’s new room! I finally found a 2nd sham at another Target store a month or so later, and now I have 2, should I need 2 for a bed accent or something.

    I love the inspiration…and the groceries, cute PJs, and great deals that I find at Target!

    I’m a Target Lady! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE(!!!) my daughters quilt. It is from the Circo “Love & Nature” collection at Target. It was quality, affordable and absolutely beautiful! WE pulled colors from it fro the walls, furniture and all the accessories. It is the lynch-pin for her entire room decor, I think it’s amazing!

    I got some awesome clearance curtains at Tar-Jay for my last apartment. Sad they didn’t fit anywhere in my current place – but I’m too much of a hoarder to get rid of them, so I hold on with hopes I’ll eventually get to use ’em again!
    Happy birthday, too!!
