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.

    I was the classic pre-teen that was in the middle of the forever-old battle between N’Sync and Backstreet Boys. I was a die-hard N’Sync fan though!

    “OH BOY! W, when you sid “really old school” I thought you were going like, Monkees. Haha, for some of us, the 80’s isn’t all that old school… that being said, I guess NKOTB made my heart go flutter, flutter.

    My fave boy band of all time is New Edition. I like One Direction’s floppy hair, but The Wanted are clearly the Backstreet Boys to One Direction’s N*SYNC (meaning they might not look as flashy, but boys can SING!).

    OH BOY!…I am of the NKOTB era. Joey was my favorite (probably because he was about my age). There was a girl at my school who claimed to have psychic powers – she could guess any girl’s favorite New Kid. Pretty awesome skill for the fifth grade!

    Not a huge fan of anyone, but if I had to pick 1 overall I guess I’d pick NSYNC. Though I did see One Direction on SNL and thought both of their songs were very catchy and good.
