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! The most recent addition to the countless items I’ve scored from Target’s clearance shelves was a modern/retro circular style lamp shade..at the tune of $7.98 (reg. $20) ! The small dent that sent it to the clearance shelf was easily disguised by turning that area of the shade out of view. Gotta love Target, clearance or not!

    I don’t have a specific favorite thing because I’ve gotten sooo many things from Target that I love. However, my recent find was some Dwell Studio graphic print pillows with birds on them. They’re now sitting on our couch in the living room, and they look awesome!

    I love target for so so so many reasons and probably about 35% of my wardrobe and household items are from there. But if I had to choose my favorite find, it would be my comforter. It looks just like one from Anthropologie that I had been adoring, but for MUCH less!

    I score a lot of great things from Tar-jay, but I love my chocolate brown, modern bathroom stand that goes over the toilet. My bathroom was sooo small and I had no storage. All of the other stands were pretty tacky. This one enhances the spa feel and actually makes it more beautiful! Love it!

    woah. I don’t even know if I can pick just one favorite item. I once bought a cute little yellow vase for about $3 and it sat out on my end table ALL year long… I just switched the flowers according to the season. I’ve also picked up numerous lamps and cute little accessories there over the years. basically, it looks like Target threw up in my house.

    I’m a Target Lady! It’s my birthday today too! Yeah for November 15th Birthdays. I hope you have a great one. I love Target for the stylish but affordable designer collections they have. I loved the Liberty of London Collection they had over the summer. I just wish I had bought a few more items.

    I’M A TARGET LADY! My favorite item(s) ever scored at Target are my daughter’s bedroom furniture pieces. They are from Target’s Simply Shabby Chic line and they are my faves because I waited patiently until they went on sale at my local store before I bought them and, let me tell ya, I was NOT a very patient person back then. ;)

    BTW, Happy Birthday John.

    There is no possible way to decide the best thing I have ever gotten from Target. Maybe the 3-cd set of top hits from the 80’s for $9.99? It’s the best store out there!
