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!! I can’t think of any good duets at the moment (that’s what happens when you put me on the spot!). The only one that is coming to mind is that song by Maroon 5 and Rihanna, “If I Never See Your Face Again”. Also, Johnny Depp and Helene Bonham Carter were good together in Sweeney Todd.

    DUET TO ME!

    Hmmm – my fav duet? That’s a tough one, there are SO MANY to choose from! I think it’s “You’re the one that I want” – John Travolta and Olivia Newton John :):):)

    Now – if there were a duet from a certain John-n-Sherry, I might be tempted to change my mind :) How about it, you two? Americal Idol is coming up fast…..

    Duet To ME!!!
    My favorite Duet is the Barlow Girl and Todd Agnew. The song is My God’s Enough, but the softness of the girls voices with Todd’s rough deep voice makes the song become a deeper movement.

    DUET TO ME!

    my favorite duet has to be the entire Tom Jones Album Reload. Ok, its a cheat, i know, and don’t really care.

    Tom Covers everything from “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” to “Are you gonna go my way” with a roster of amazing performers including Robbie Williams, the Cardigans, the Barenaked Ladies and Van Morrison.

    That magical painting device just might convince my husband that painting isn’t a new form of torture.

    Natalie Cole & Nat King Cole’s duet of Unforgettable in the early 90’s is pretty awesome. Especially as only half of the duet was living.
