Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Duet To It

Fab Freebie: Duet To It

***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…

Ryobi Couple Painting

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.

Ryobi Duet Paint System

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!

    Duet to ME,,, Man, would this be heaven for my hubby and I. We have been remodeling a 5,000 sq ft house for three years!!! with five kids living in it with us at the same time.. we are so tired of remodel dust, and cement floors… and unfinished sheetrock. Our big project, the GREAT ROOM is next, and those 20 foot walls are calling for a great painting system…. Love to win, love to paint.

    “Duet to me” ! I would love to paint my parents place since they are finally going to quit smoking and they used to (ewww) smoke in their bedroom. I would love to paint their room, with some low VOC odor blocking paint. Yea. That would be sweet! They could enjoy a great smelling room and paint together to commemorate their new life as non-smokers!

    Duet to me! My husband and I will be painting a rather large addition to our house in the coming months and this would be perfect. Thanks for the idea in case case I don’t win :) Anyway, my all-time favorite musical duet is Captain & Tenille, Muskrat Love. Cheesy 70’s style all the way!
