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.

    They make the BEST basic tank tops! I can’t seem to get enough of them, and I wear them under almost everything.

    The $100 would go a long way in the conversion of our spare room to a nursery for baby #1 due 3/2011!

    Thanks for the great giveaway!

    I’m a Target Lady! Big time! I get picked on actually, lol. I can’t resist the girls clothes, anything with ruffles and fabric flowers. I’ve also been picking up similar items for myself. I would also have to say my favorites are the play wonder toys. And anything for the home, pillows, etc…I can resist any of it. I also have a small wallet lol, so I could use $100 to finish up Christmas shopping for my 3 kids!

    Favorite Target score – impossible to say! Clothes, toys, pillows, frames, lamps… Oh, actually, I do know, my favorite score would be the super-comfy faux fur throws I got on clearance for $14 in two colors. I sleep with one every night! Love it!

    And happy birthday! I turned 29 on the 13th. Rock on, November-ites!

    I’m a target lady! And happy birthday John!! I think my favorite item is a lamp I got when I went to college. The shade is made from thin veneer, so the woodgrain shows through when the light is turned on. I’m sure it’s not everyone’s taste, but I like the look of the woodgrain against the brushed stainless steel base.

    I absolutely love buying my clothes at Target. They have such cute things for such a steal. I especially love when I get compliments from my “I-only-wear-designer-brands” friends on my Target outfits. When they ask where I got my outfit and I say Target they are amazed!

    I truly am a Target lady! I go there weekly if not more frequently. And for the record, I also love the real Target lady, I especially love the episode with Justin Timberlake. I laugh till I almost pee every time, here is a link in case you missed this one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ywlpbrzdu60

    Anyhoo, my favorite target purchase are their little black magnetic birds (they also come with tacks so I have them hanging on my cubicle wall). I just love these birds, and I love any chance to bring a little scandenavian decor to my cube! Here is a link to the birds, they would go nicely with your wall flowers. :)

    My favorite item that I’ve scored at Target is a damask shimmer gold/black cube ottoman. Not only did it cost just $49, but it also can be a vintage, chic, or modern accessory depending on which chair and textiles I pair it with. I currently have it in the corner of my bedroom paired with a solid black lounge chair. There is nothing better than kicking my feet up and enjoying a cup of hot chocolate and romance novel. Thank you Target!! :)

    My most favorite thing I ever bought at target is a blue and green fleece plaid scarf (like 5 years ago). It is the softest scarf and it is made in Germany. I also get compliments on it all the time. My mother-in-law must have felt bad for me and my target scarf because she bought me a cashmere scarf with similar colors, but my target scarf is still my favorite!
