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.

    Unfortunately, I went through the N’SYNC craziness…luckily that was long ago and I can blame that part of my life on adolescence. :)

    Not a huge boy band fan… If I had to choose, I’d go with Boyz II Men (I had to look in previous comments to figure out how to spell it if that’s any indication).

    I great up with Backstreet Boys! I always favored them over N’Sync because Brian was cuter than Justin Timberlake (or so I thought…). Oh yeah, and I guess they could sing pretty well, too. :)

    We’ve been in the market for a new mower, as our neighbors have probably noticed. NKOTB with their amazingly fun reunion tours have been my favorite boy bands as of late!

    Well, in danger of being totally dated as OLD I would have to say The Monkees (when I was a tween, young teen) or The Osmond Brothers when I was younger. It is amazing to me how Donny Osmond’s voice has stood the test of time. I went to see Jim Brickman in a Christmas concert and Donny was also there. As you can imagine, the audience was peppered with older women like myself who had drug our husbands along. And Donny still has a great voice!
