Fab Freebie: Boys In The Yard

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

After lots of love proclamations for NSYNC, NKOTB and more, random.org has survived boy-band-mania and crowned our winner as… Megan G (who says she loves the original boy band…The Beatles). Congrats Megan!

In the spirit of a week of cleaning & organizing, who could use a new lawn mower to tidy things up outside? Well, someone’s getting this puppy (valued at $339) thanks to Lawn-Boy. It’s self propelled, easy to start, and features a “Blade Stop” system that allows you to turn off the blades without killing the engine, which comes in handy if you’ve got a lawn frequently peppered with sticks or toys (not that I’m speaking from experience or anything).

Lawn Boy Giveaway

  • PRIZE: The Lawn-Boy 10605 Mower
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “OH BOY!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … your favorite boy band of all time. Are you digging the new guys (One Direction, The Wanted)? Or do the ones from back in the day (Backstreet Boys, NSYNC) still get you going? How about the really old school ones (NKOTB, Boys II Men, Menudo)? Or have you rolled your eyes at this whole question?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, May 2nd at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • 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 on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Lawn-Boy.

    Definitely never listened to any boy bands. I’m entering this contest because my wife loves your site and she wants to win the lawn mower. :)

    OH BOY…that’s actually a tough one.

    I gotta say, probably NKOTB. They were my life.

    So excited about this giveaway. I have been an admirer from afar for a very long time. We are two weeks away from closing on our dream house and are in the market for a lawn mower right now! (Our last home had a lawn care company do our yard for us.) We are SO excited to get to tend to our own grass it’s almost dorky. Ok. It is dorky.

    Oh, boy! I’m rolling my eyes, but only because I didn’t realize that my fave boy band was old old school already. NKOTB was my fave in high school! Geez I thought 35 was the new 25? lol

    OH BOY! I’m an 80’s girl. Menudo was of no interest to me. NKOTB came about when I was too old and so on and so on. So I’ve never been a boy band fan. But of all of them, I’d say B2MEN had the best harmonies and sexiest songs. :)

    And I’m sorry, but I’ve always rather skipped the whole boy band business. My daughter loves Justin Beiber though, if that counts. Plus I really need a lawn mower.

    Oh Boy!! My very first concert was New Kids on the Block (Tiffany was there, too! Woo Hoo!). I was pretty sure that Jordan Knight was going to sweep my 12 year old self out of the audience and propose to me right then and there. And…I can’t believe I just admitted that to the internet…

    Boyz II Men all the way. Also, a little embarassed to admit that I had a crush on Kevin from the Backstreet Boys. Not nearly as big as Sherry’s Eminem obsession though. ;-)

    I guess I’m old school because it will always be NKOTB for me. In fact I’m 34 years old and I saw them in concert last summer with Backstreet Boys. I’ll give you a moment to stop laughing.
