Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Boys In The Yard

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.

    OH BOY!

    BSB is definitely my favorite boy band! I’ve seen them in concert every year since 2008, this past year with NKOTB. That was definitely the best concert EVER!

    OH BOY OH BOY OH BOY!…we really need a new lawnmower! Our current lawnmower is bottom of the line (as in not self propelled and you have to push a little button near the engine 3 times to get the gas going before you can even start it). This would be great!!

    OH BOY! I only really got into NKOTB and Boys II Men at the tender age of 5. By the time N’SYNC, etc were popular I had moved on to grunge rock. Despite how entertaining all of these groups are for a certain age group, I think Boys II Men are the most talented boy band of the lot.

    I’m about to go WAYYY back, long before Boys2Men or NKOTB…

    JACKSON 5!

    Would LOVE this lawnmower for my hubby to use at our soon-to-be new-to-us house (& yard). We’ve never had a lawn to mow until this house & we’re actually excited to do so. This would make an amazing Father’s Day gift…OH BOY!

    OH BOY! Of course my favorite boy band of all time would have to be the Backstreet Boys. That’s a given. Duh. : )

    I’m off to YouTube to watch some old music videos now. Otherwise, I will have “Cuz I want it that-a-way!” stuck in my head for days.

    I’d have to go with *NSYNC! In middle school my little brother (who was around 3 at the time) looked just like a mini Justin Timberlake. I would put a bandanna over his curly blond locks and he would dance to the Madison Square Garden concert in front of the T.V. Unfortunately for him, I filmed it..and plan on revealing it again at his high school graduation party next weekend! Gotta love the Timberlake!
