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. I love just perusing and picking up things here and there. Sometimes you don’t know what you need until you find it in the aisle. Their decorative tchotkes are usually what I fall for.

    I’m a Target Lady! I have a few things from Target that I love…organic cotton sheets are a definite favorite. When my daughter was born we were given a baby rocker/seat, which she slept in for the first 2 weeks. It was a lifesaver!

    A couple years ago, we moved to a condo in Chicago (no longer live there) and I did our Master bedroom for the “look for less” (after I bought my kind of expensive Pottery Barn bedding) but EVERYTHING else in the room was from Target and it all looked like PB items: 2 Candlesticks, Candles, Frames, Lamp & Lamp Shade, Baskets – basically ALL the accessories!

    I’M A TARGET LADY!!!! I seriously think that half of the decor and furniture in my nest is from Target, so it’s hard to pick just one fav… but my latest Target love is this gorgeous blue and white throw pillow for the couch our family room. Everything there is so stylish and affordable, that it’s hard to walk away empty handed.

    I am a TARGET LADY because I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the Christmas Baking Labels I found last year after Christmas on Clearance. In fact, I plan on using the ones I got to adorn a few pans of my cinnamon rolls I make every year for friends. (Unfortunately they did not have enough for everyone but take what you find right!)

    I’m a Target lady! And I don’t think I can pick just one because I may have an addiction to Target — it might be the great lamp (or many lamps) I have throughout my house or the bathroom rug or the baskets for my linen closet that contain all my crap and make it look tidy or the jars that hold my sugar or flour or I could go on and on.

    PS Happy birthday!!!

    I have snagged some great deals at Target, so I’m not sure this qualifies as the BEST one ever, but its certainly the first one coming to mind right now due to the outside temperature: a king size, super-soft flannel sheet set for $20! Great price, and that wasn’t even on sale!

    I’M A TARGET LADY! My favorite ‘score’ at Target for our home is a fantastic round side table that was on sale this summer for $39. It’s HEAVY solid wood, not particle board, it has a gorgeous, shapely turned pedestal and it’s the perfect size for beside the sofa! I LOVE IT. Everyone thinks I got it at a very expensive home store, because it is such a fabulous impostor!

    Today is also my birthday (although its my 28th). The wife and I have bought a ton of great items from target, especially since ther isn’t an Ikea close by. We snag a lot of organizational products there and always stock up on Christmas cards and decorations during their post-christmas sales.

    my favorite purchase from the oh so lovely targ was without a doubt my pillow with the big yellow flowers on it (as featured on YHL). for a long time i didn’t have anywhere to put it so talked myself out of buying it and once i decided to, it was always out of stock and no longer featured online. i finally got this wonderful pillow a few weeks ago! AMAZING!
