***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
Literally- it does. Hear me out for a minute. A couple of weeks ago we posted about our new Bissell vacuum, which virtually swept us off our feet (and actually sucked stuff off our floors). Well, thanks to the magic of the Interweb, that post actually caught the eye of the kind folks over at Bissell and after a few emails back and forth… tah dah! We managed to sweet talk them into a YHL giveaway. So now one lucky reader gets the chance to win their very own Bissell Cleanview Helix Bagless Vacuum Cleaner to help them spruce up every nook and cranny of their casa. Nice, right?
We’re psyched that Bissell’s helping us share this HEPA-filterin’, 12-amp powerin’, multi-surface settin’, pet hair suckin’ and lightweight cleanin’ love with one of you. And if your house is home to a canine or a feline with a bit more fur than our bald-bellied Burger, this little bonus prize might come in handy too: they’re throwing in a Bissell’s Pet Hair Broom for our big winner as well.
Even if you don’t find yourself sweeping up much pet hair, the broom’s rubber bristles (which attract fur like a magnet) are retractable for your normal sweep jobs. So here’s how you can get your paws on this prize set which- thanks to the broom- technically doesn’t completely suck.
- PRIZE: A Bissell 82H1 Cleanview Helix Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner and Pet Hair Broom
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CLEAN ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about any of your spring cleaning rituals that are already underway in your house (or any that you might be diving into soon). Getting the garden ready? Washing all the windows? Taking us up on our closet cleaning party? Spill it.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, March 10th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: Home to the world’s best and second-best hockey teams (that’s Canada and the US, fyi)
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

“Clean Me”
We have 3 dogs, 2 cats and a grandpuppy that visits often…I am drooling over that broom! And the vacuum would keep the brand new Bissell steam cleaner we just got company in the closet – we might not even need the steam cleaner as often with a good vacuum! Seriously, I have been on a pre-spring cleaning kick for weeks, I am having back surgery next week and hubby the same two weeks later. I am cleaning everything!
Love the blog – you both have such great style it is inspiring me to spruce up the rooms in our house.

We are moving from an apartment into our first house in May so that is when the spring cleaning is going to hit, in our old place and new. Ugh.
Jenn S. says
CLEAN ME!
My fiance and I are in the process of moving into our first house. I’m using it as a chance to clean out closets and get rid of things we don’t need anymore. Plus, I can’t wait for nice warm day to clean the outside windows.
Vica says
CLEAN ME!
Steam cleaning my carpets and all closets start getting made over as well as I move out seasonal clothes.

The only spring cleaning done so far is opening up the windows to clear out the stale winter air! Spring weather hasn’t quite arrived in NH yet, but I’m itching for it.
Katie says
CLEAN ME!
We are spring cleaning by getting rid of tons of junk before a big move later this year!
CLEAN ME says
CLEAN ME!
I need that pet hair broom SO BADLY.
Our neighborhood has a gigantic neighborhood yard sale the first weekend in May, so every year my husband and I clean the entire house to get rid of everything we don’t need.
Uyen says
CLEAN ME!
I am cleaning out my “closet” this week. Just moved to a new place, where my actual closet is 1/4 the size of my previous place, so I’ve been storing my extra clothing and shoes in suitcases and under-bed storage everywhere. It is TIME for a purge.
JMB says
CLEAN ME!!!!! We have a list of spring cleaning pjojects for both inside and out that is as long as my arm…oh where to begin??? Perhaps with a brand spankin’ new vacuum!
Jen says
Clean Me!
We had all the carpets professionally cleaned last week. Stuff that was on the floor is piled everywhere else, but I refuse to put it back where it was (where it didn’t belong)!
Jen C. says
“CLEAN ME!”
We are in NEED of this vacuum! Just did carpet tiles in the basement. Every spring it is closet clean-out! The old trash/donate/store routine.
Kara says
“CLEAN ME”
Before each season, I turn all my hangers so they hang backwards in my closet (hook facing out). After I wash/wear something, I put it back in my closet hanging the correct way. At the end of the season,I pack up and ship out anything that I didn’t wear that is hung with the hook facing out. I’m on the verge of purging my winter wardrobe as we approach spring!
Amanda says
Clean Me! I was just telling my husband yesterday about your post about this vacuum. I need some spring cleaning rituals, unfortunately, cleaning is not my forte. However, this year, I’m trying to be a little more motivated…our first baby is due in 4 weeks!
Jenn Mc says
“CLEAN ME”
Spring Cleaning? We are going to paint our attached laundry room & when it’s done we will overhaul with a new organization system. Shelves! and more Shelves! :)
Nicole M says
CLEAN ME:
I am currently not spring cleaning- once my work load settles down I intend to do a huge cleaning of our house, but for now it must be like this.
Susan says

I need to clean out my garage badly. I just bought my new place last summer and unfortunately the garage has acted as a dumping zone.
Cindy says
CLEAN ME!
I started “Spring” Cleaning about a month ago. I cleaned out our closet, and reorganized our kitchen cabinets and donated a lot of loot!! I would really love this vacuum and the broom. We have 2 lab/shephard dogs in the house which means vacuuming and sweeping DAILY! The job would be much better with the proper tools!
Caitlin @ That House on The Corner says
“CLEAN ME!”
I’ve been sprucing up all our flower beds for a big remodel soon! Plus we’re getting ready to paint our exterior!
Audra says
Clean Me!! I love getting the flower beds ready for spring!

Anne says
CLEAN ME!
I just moved into a new house at the end of last fall, so it is time to get out in the yard and clean up the landscaping and plant some things of my own! You’ve got to love the sun and good weather!
Katie says

Mary B says
Clean ME!
I am hosting my VERY first SWAP party… and I plan to have my house sparkling with spring cleaning by then. Windows, floors, everything cleaned and put away! Thanks for the chance to win!
JAG says
CLEAN ME!
I joined the YHL closet cleaning party this weekend, too!
Kathy B says
CLEAN ME
Sping cleaning hasn’t started quite yet. We’ve only been in our house for 6 months, and I’m looking forward to giving it a good scrub down.
Ashley Seay says
CLEAN ME!
I never thought I would get so excited for a vacuum giveaway! I need it! I have a 1982 Hoover that was given to me by a friend who’s grandmother gave it to her. I have to give it to Hoover though, it still runs, but I think it spits more out than it sucks up.
My spring cleaning this year is going to be put on hold as I have a wedding exactly 2 months from today. As soon as it’s over I will be redoing the entire house. We will get rid of all the cheap stuff we have collected over the years and invest in higher quality, this is for a lifetime “stuff”. And there will be painting, lots of painting.
Im really excited.
Alisa S says

I love to clean. Vacuuming is my therapy!
Ang says
“CLEAN ME”
…starting with the closets
Marika says
CLEAN ME!! Spring cleaning? It is all I can do to keep up with regular cleaning thanks to a very sheddy golden retriever. Maybe with this I could have time to spring clean as well as regular clean???
anu says
i love the switch of my winter clothes for spring clothes (stored in another closet). i also love the process of purging old things, especially now that i can sell my gently worn clothes at a local consignment store.
Kristie says
CLEAN ME
We had our house built in January, so Spring will entail doing multiple landscaping project in our dirt yard. Yes, dirt.
I so need this vacuum! 2 boys and 2 himalayan cats! My Dyson just doesn’t do it for me!

Becky Woodruff says

We actually did a “winter cleaning” so we are already set for spring!! My pet thinks otherwise and has decided to shed all of her hair AFTER the big clean.
Lauren says
CLEAN ME!!!
My spring cleaning ritual is to purge the things we don’t need and have a garage sale!
Nikki G says
CLEAN ME!!
This past weekend we were finally in the 50’s temp-wise, so all the windows were opened while we dusted and vacuumed and mopped the heck out of the house to get some of the stank out!
Jeanne says
CLEAN ME!
I am in Sherry’s situation – my first child due in June – so I am taking the opportunity to clean out closets and create space for our impending bundle of joy!
Eileen says
CLEAN ME
Just cleaned out my vanity for old and unused products and getting rid of old clothes that I don’t wear or don’t fit. Feels great!
Danielle says
CLEAN ME!
We’re finally getting some sunshine and warmer temps and both are inspiring me to get cleaning! To start with, just the usual stuff – dusting, sweeping and vacuuming – and soon it’ll include a lot more as we’re hoping to put our house up for sale (again).
Kelsey says
Clean me!
We love de-cluttering and ridding ourselves of stuff we really don’t need/use. So going through our clohtes cloests and making a clothing donation is something we try to do a couple times a year.
Tiffany says
CLEAN ME!
I’m cleaning out the closests and trying to get rid of the overall clutter. My home doesn’t actually look cluttered, I just feel like it is…if that makes sense. (I’m sure there’s some sort of underlying issue here haha.)
Sarah says
CLEAN ME!
I clean as I go all through out the year but there are a few things that I especially like to do as spring approaches. Vacuuming the car (to get out all the winter guck), sweeping the garage and cleaning the inside of my kitchen drawers and cupboards are some of them!
Suz says
CLEAN ME!!!
I’m getting ready to do some spring cleaning and the first thing will be to wash all the windows to let some sunshine in! It’s been a long, dark winter!
Kait says
CLEAN ME
Ah, spring cleaning: I crack the windows in our apartment and take some Spic and Span to the mini-blinds…
Krysta says
“CLEAN ME”
I’m taking my “spring” cleaning one room at a time. Starting with the main living areas, then moving to rooms that have more storage, & some time (maybe by December) I’ll get thru all the boxes in my basement!
Ches says
“CLEAN ME”
I neeeed this vac desperately!!!! My floors look terrible!!! I am starting to spring clean and have spots in my floors that need attention as well as blinds that need to be washed.
Lorrie says
CLEAN ME!
Just this weekend, the windows got washed inside and out and our furbabies got shaved….anticipating the warmer weather!
Jaime says
CLEAN ME!
SO many things are going on around here – touching up the baseboards, wiping out the cupboards, steam cleaning the carpets….slow but steady! I can’t wait to begin working on the outside of the house!!!
Farrah says
CLEAN ME!
I love cleaning all my curtains and blinds. It freshens up the room great for spring.
Stephanie says
CLEAN ME! Our current project is cleaning the garage and unfinished basement – not just dejunking (which is also happening), but a true power scrubbing of the floors, walls and ceilings. eeek!
