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! I’d say 90% of my stuff is from Target, so it’s hard to pick a favorite. Right now I’ll go with my tall brown riding boots – super comfy, super cute.

    Not exactly home-related, but a pair of flip flops I got there about 5 years ago are the most comfortable ones I’ve ever found and are still going strong after all this time.

    My favorite Target score ever was a pair of mid-century inspired vases I bought a few years ago on the cheap. I love finding random decor surprises at Target. Admittedly, I also adore the Archer Farms cookies, esp. the key lime cookie straws and some kind of chocolate-dipped wafer cookie that is to-die-for good.

    I’m a target lady! FOR SURE. My favorite thing I bought was back in college when I went there at LEAST twice a week. I bought two blue, white, orange, yellow, and red striped bowls that I can’t bear to part with. They look a lot like the cups that Lynette Scavo uses on Desperate Housewives. Perhaps their set dresser got them from Target too? :)

    I’M A TARGET LADY – I love love love their stuff. I walked in the other day for a few food items and $120 later!! The gift card would come in handy for sure. The best item I ever scored at Target was through our wedding gift registry. Forget pots and pans and sheets. I can’t live w/out the ever so functional Houdini Lever Corkscrew. No wine drinker should be w/out one!!

    My favorite thing we’ve gotten from Target has been some Mossimo jeans…. that I picked up nearly 7+ years ago! I got too big for them, so I packed them away, and they’ve moved with us to different duty stations, and now to FL. After having the lapband done two years ago, I was able to put those bad boys back on, and they’re still my favorites all these years later. Lol.

    I have a million things that i LOVE from Target, but my fave has to be the antique looking Hunter desk fans that I got when I moved into my house. They are silver and look like the fans my grandparents had in their house. they were so much cheaper there than anywhere else I could find the same fans.

    I’m a Target Lady! I’ve scored so many great deals there – some gems that come to mind: a $12 jewelry armoire (originally somewhere around $50), $.50 chargers that are actually so pretty I hung them on my wall as artwork, $15 king sheet set … the list goes on! I also love that you can buy a pair of shoes there for $20 or less and get more compliments on them than a pair on which you spent 3x as much!!
