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!! The best item I’ve scored at target has to be this gorgeous (and affordable) black candelabra. It’s perfect for our decor and it brings the drama! I do love shopping at Target for everything, though. They have the best fuzzy socks and cardigans.

    I LOVE Target. And their clearance sales. One of my favorite steals was a pair of maternity capris for only $4. We’ve scored countless home decor items and tons of clothing items for every member of our family. Sad part is, we live 100 miles from our closest store. So, it goes without saying I’m a devoted target.com shopper!

    My favorite Target purchases are the $1.00 scrapbook supplies. They’re so much nicer quality for that price at Target than what I’ve seen at other stores. For a hobby that can quickly get expensive, I absolutely love the deals Target has to offer!

    I’M A TARGET LADY! I love target for so many things. Clothing, shoes, houndstooth rain boots, peacock picture frame, gorgeous throw pillow from Liberty of London, Isaac Mizrahi collection bedding, makeup, and the jewelry of course. OMG their jewelry is fab! I’m always finding great stuff there and could do a lot with a free Benjamin! Thanks!

    I’m a target lady!! Seriously, I am. It’s embarrassing how often I go in there. I always love it when I score 75% off clearance items at Target, but one of my recent favorites are the parson chairs I bought there that Ballard slipcovers fit perfectly!

    We get almost all of our Christmas decorations at Target because they have a great selection. I especially love their wrapping paper and bags. Target is one of the few places we’ll brave the Black Friday crowds for as well.

    Another favorite Target purchase–I once scored a ceiling fan on clearance for $2!

    I LOVE target! I go there pretty frequently. They even just built a new one close to my house (well closer anyway). My favorite thing I’ve ever got there was a $20 floor lamp and $10 black bookshelves. They’ve lived with me the last 10 years, 3 states and 7+ moves.

    One of my favorite purchases is a pair of little white ceramic birdie salt and pepper shakers. They were so cute and so on clearance — but I don’t use them for my table. They are perched on a little wall shelf in my daughter’s bedroom. And we think they look just lovely there! :)
