***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
Sherry and I have a system when we paint a room. She edges (aka: cuts in) and I roll. We both claim to have the more difficult job- and sometimes I think we’re both right (hello painting brick?), but this week’s prize could prove us both wrong…
The RYOBI Duet Power Paint System is specially made for two people who, like us, enjoy tackling a paint job together. We haven’t taken one for a spin yet, but the idea that both of us could have fresh paint pumped straight from the can to separate his-and-hers painting attachments (a roller for me, an edger for Sherry) almost makes us want to break out our paint swatches again. Heck, there’s even a sprayer attachment if someone’s feeling particularly daring.
But since we don’t have any looming paint projects to tackle, we want one lucky winner (and their handy painting assistant) to try this puppy on for size. Here’s how to enter:
- PRIZE: The RYOBI Duet Power Paint System (valued at $116)
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “DUET TO ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us your favorite musical duet of all time. Are you all about some old-school Sonny and Cher? Or does the more recent Madonna and Justin Timberlake collaboration rock your world?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 11th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: Anyone in the lower forty-eight US states
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!
**Psst- Want more free stuff? One lucky local can snag two coveted tickets to R. Home For The Holidays where guest speaker Eddie Ross will be chatting about seasonal decor by swinging over to our Facebook page and submitting your entry. We wouldn’t miss it for the world!

Oh, this could be so perfect for my husband and I. We just closed on our house last week and it is old and in major need of repairs. We will be putting work into every room…this could be a dream come true!
As for a duet, I am a sucker for family pairrings…father/daughter, husband/wife. I really love the song with Millie Cyrus and her dad about moving out and on with life. Or um, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, I Need You…that’s great too!

I can’t think of any duet’s I particularly enjoy, but I do love mashups – which are kind of like a duet! I particularly enjoy Bootie SF’s mashups. My favourite is one called Black Beatles with the Beatles vs. Black-Eyed Peas vs. Ludacris vs. Kelis
Allison H says
DUET TO ME!

My favorite duet of all time is the duet from “The King and I” where Tuptim (Rita Moreno) and her Burmese lover Lun Tha (Carlos Rivas) sing “I Have Dreamed” to each other.
That song gives me chills.

DUET TO ME! The best duet of all time, David Bowie and Freddie Mercury’s Under Pressure. Especially since I am having my kitchen redone for Thanksgiving.
Britten Carlson says
DUET TO ME
As a perpetual remodeler I find myself constantly painting. I have an airless sprayer, but in smaller rooms it is faster to do it by hand. As far as duets go I would have to say Seether and Amy Lee with Broken.
Liz Mann says
“DUET TO ME”
The Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole “Unforgettable” virtual duet is my favorite.
mary says
Duet to me! This is such a handy tool…thanks!
I’m looove Don’t Go Breaking My Heart with Elton John and Kiki Dee.
Bethanie says
Duet to ME! :)
This would be great to have for my new apartment. I might even be adventurous enough to try out the sprayer on my newly-purchased-from-Craiglist dresser (in white, of course!).
One of my favorite duets is Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton singing “When I Get Where I’m Goin.” Both are two of my favorite musicians in their own right, but put them together and it’s just magical!!
Kristina says
