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!!!! Oh my gosh, we just closed on a home and spent our ENTIRE first weekend painting. The hubby was the cutter and I was the roller (so a switch-a-roo from y’all) but this would SOOOO come in handy as we’re tackling the master this weekend!

    best duet: definitely Annie and Daddy Warbucks…I could watch that movie non-stop and did, for many years, as a young girl!!!

    I’m hoping the karma from having a giveaway on my blog will run off and I’ll be taking this home!

    Duet to Me!
    My fav duet of all time is from the musical Rent when lovers Angel and Collins sings “I’ll Cover You”. It’s so upbeat yet the lyrics are perfect. I am trying to convince my fiance to have this as our first dance. I’m also a HUGE gay rights activist and think it would be a great way to incorporate that into our day without shoving anyone’s face in it. And I’m sure all my gay buds would get a little snicker out of it.

    This might actually get my painting-impaired boyfriend to help me with a room! And as for my favorite duet, it would have to be Ben Folds and Regina Spektor’s “You Don’t Know Me.” But I have a never ending love for anything Mr. Folds’ does.
