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.

    My favorite Target purchase was a bright yellow paper towel holder and bread box. A little pop of sunshine in the kitchen.

    I’m a Target lady and… it might be crazy but my fave Target items are 2 groceries that I just can’t find in any other stores in town: Smuckers Simply Fruit, and refrigerated whole wheat bagels.

    I worked at a target in college, so I’ve gotten TONS of stuff from that wonderful store over the years. I guess the most useful was a desk that moved from dorm room, to first apartment, to first house with me before FINALLY having to be retired.

    My very favorite Target score is a tie between the lamps and the curtains I used in our daughter’s nursery. They ended up being THE perfect shade of pink (couldn’t find it anywhere else) and the texture on the shades and the curtains was AMAZING. I love them to this day (over a year later)!

    I love Target for all kinds of reasons … my husband tells me I’m addicted. It’s sad, really, but most of my clothes come from there (stylish and decently made, for the price), many of our home accessories … food … yeah, pretty much everything. :)

    I can’t think of just ONE thing I got from Target that I love, because I love pretty much EVERYTHING from Target. No lie. Today I’m wearing my Target jeggings. But seriously, I have to limit my Target stops because I wander around the home decor, oh and the dishes, and the holiday section…

    I’M AM TARGET LADY My sweety pie got me a large buddha candle holder for my b-day that I had been watching for the price to go down forever. It didn’t go down but my sweety actually remembered on my b-day and totally surprised me. He’s never bought me any decoration items unless I ask for it, so it was totally unexpected for me.
