***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!

Carrie Council says
please CLEAN ME !
I am such a neat freak that I don’t participate in spring cleaning because my house is always spic-n-span! I find that doing a little a day really pays off..what’s the saying?…a stitch in time saves nine. YES exactly! Thanks for the giveaway!
catherine says
Clean Me! My spring ritual of clearing out closets has begun. The hardest part is parting with my children’s clothes so I make sure to take a snapshot of them in my favorites before donating them to the local thrift stores/shelters. I have quite a few other projects ready to go for spring break when I’ll have two weeks off from teaching and will have some time for playing around the house. :)
Barbara says
Clean Me!!! Decluttering, cleaning, organizing, my craft room. Which all too often has just one too many projects going on! And, oh yes, cleaning the windows, the blinds (someone remind me why I have those things!)and painting the grout. Yep, spring has sprung is sunny southern Arizona!
Olivia says
CLEAN ME!
Spring cleaning was in full affect this past Saturday. I cleaned and dusted every corner. Next point of attack are our closets, well mine especially, there are so many clothes that I haven’t worn that need to be given away. I’m looking forward to the purge.
:)
Michele says

I just finished the kids’ closets and the coat closet. The biggest project for this spring is the 3rd bay of the garage – it has turned into the junk room. I can’t wait to begin. Would love a Bissell.
Dana @ House*Tweaking says
“CLEAN ME!” This giveaway was meant for me. Pleeeeeease I am in desperate need of a new vacuum but would rather spend the $ on home decor! And as soon as the weather allows, I’m opening up the windows and cleaning them with vinegar & water.

CLEAN ME…please clean me!!!!
What an awesome prize and so perfect for us, my almost 15 month old and I. My son and I have found a new awesome game, vacuuming. He loves it. He loves to hold the hose and press the button. Because our vacuum sucks (hahaha…not in a good way) we spend a long time doing the same spot on the rug just to get the cat hair out. He even takes my hand and walks me over to the vacuum every morning. It is now our awesome spring cleaning task.

I have re-organized my pantry (yuck) and am actually doing a spring cleaning giveaway on my blog :)
Jen G says
CLEAN ME!
Yes, it has already commenced. I’m going room by room, doing a thorough cleaning as well as trying to toss and sort as much as possible. Getting somewhere, but still have a long way to go! :)
Lori says
CLEAN ME!!
I love to clean out my cabinets and get out all of my summer decorations. Fun glass bowls that the sunshine really brings out the colors. Beautiful colors for spring!
Amanda W. says
CLEAN ME! :) I am about to take on cleaning my garage! I have shelves for organizing things, but I had to buy more b/c we have too much stuff!
Jennifer S. says
CLEAN ME :)
Sweeping the snow off the porches was the first step, and now we’re on to freshening up the house plant arrangement. Nothing says spring like some new greens!
mindy says

My spring cleaning this year consists of readying our house for our baby, due in 9 weeks!
Thais says
“CLEAN ME”
I hate spring cleaning but it has to be done. I like to clean out the closets and get ready for a new season. I live in south Florida so the season goes from hot to scorching and we must change the clothing accordingly. Plus make sure all the air-conditioner filters are clean and ready to go.
Amanda L says
“CLEAN ME!”
I am spring cleaning all of my Christmas stuff! Too many bows saved and scraps of wrapping papper (that will honestly never fit to wrap anything). I buy new tape if needed and purge out!
@sweetbabboo says
Clean Me! And I’ve already begun Spring cleaning as I hosted a baby shower this past weekend. My cleaning got so intense, I was under the beds wiping down baseboards. They needed it. Next up: power wash the siding.

CLEAN ME!
I just did a complete overhaul of my closet (raising the main bar and adding a second bar plus an elfa tower of drawers)… Another upcoming project is to finally take down and wash the cat-hair covered velvet curtains in my living room (gross). I also want to tackle the yard in a MAJOR way.
Rae says
CLEAN ME!
After tax season ends, I can hit the ground running with spring (or maybe summer) cleaning!
Jenine says
CLEAN ME!
Spring cleaning this year includes getting my basement ready to be ‘finished’- yay!
Judy Beyen says
CLEAN ME! I’ve got two hairy, hairy cats. Cute but filthy. I could use a new vacuum to carry off the little hairballs that are populating my house. Clean me!
Roxanne says
Clean Me! I wish I was washing all the windows! We bought a run-down house last year with an out of control overgrown yard, so we’ve been spending all our extra time tackling it so the whole lot will be usable this year. We need all the extra space with two grown collies and a german shepherd :)
Erin Schmidt says
C-L-E-A-N MEEEE!!
At our house, the first thing we do is get our screens out of storage and clean them off. Spring cleaning just isn’t the same unless you’re able to (finally) open your window and let the spring air and sunshine in! There really is nothing like the smell of spring (y’know, it’s an indescribable scent that is just.. so.. SPRING). There’s no household cleaner or air freshener like it!
Heather W. says
Our first home is tiny (910 sq. ft) but it had been fully renovated before we moved in last April. We have half hardwood and half carpet so the Bissell would be great! Also we are planning on getting a dog soon and the pet broom would also be great.
sarah says
CLEAN ME:
We are going to be building raised vegetable gardens and seeding our lawn and uprooting dead bushes/trees…..cleaning out the garage as well!! Oh and possibly building a deck! WOO HOO!!!
Sheila says

Messy closets make me crazy. So I will be starting there.
Mary says
CLEAN ME!
Spring cleaning….baseboards. Something I never do. This week was finally in the 40s here in central Illinois, and it feels like spring! My baseboards are now dust-free!
Also, getting a dog soon. Love dogs. Hate fur! I’ll be vacuuming daily!
Jen Bishop says
Clean Me!!! Our vacuume hose is being held together with duct tape! Spring cleaning underway by getting rid of things…lots of bags to charity.
Heather W. says

Melissa D says
CLEAN ME! We just cleaned up the backyard- pinecones, leaves from the Fall, sweeping off the porch. We’re ready for Spring out there- bring on the dusting of yellow pollen! :)
Heather H says
CLEAN ME!
This year spring cleaning means organizing and de-cluttering our spare bedroom – where all the I-don’t-know-where-to-put-this items ended up after we moved into our house last May.
ashley bailey says

!!!!CLEAN ME!!!!
Spring cleaning is definitely underway here. I weeded my garden just last week, and have it about 70% ready for planting. I’m planning cardboard and straw in the walkways, and mulching the raised beds themselves with straw. :)
I’m also going through my girls’ toys and clothes in a few days. I am getting a bin ready for charity, and re-organizing they’re clothes system. :)
…and I would love to win this vacuum. I am in desperate need of a new one! I bought a vacuum on clearance at Target right after we got married… 5 years ago. A week later we realized there is no way to control the level of the cleaner itself. I worry about it eating into my carpets all the time! :)

Thing spring we’re re-doing our front yard, which my mother in law sprinkled with wild flower seeds last fall. Every seed sprouted, killed the grass, and took over EVERYTHING! Then, down comes the wallpaper inside!
Tina says
CLEAN ME! I’m looking to start cleaing up/sorting out the toys in the kids room and the cloests. Oh do they need it!
