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

| By John Petersik | November 9, 2009 | 2,131 Comments

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!

    With the holidays coming up, I immediately think of my favorite HALF of many duets – Bing Crosby! With Fred Astaire (a la Holiday Inn, one of my faves!), Doris Day (“Baby It’s Cold Outside”), Frank Sinatra…I’m ready to go turn on the carols!

    I can’t even think of a duet right now, all I know is my husband and I are in a time crunch and we’re painting our first house together…so we’re the duet? This equipment will definitely make our life easier.

    My fav duet of all time is my parents. They met at church in the 1970’s when their pastor asked them to pair up with my Dad on guitar and my Mom singing a (doubtlessly kum-bah-ya style) musical number. They’ve been making music together ever since.
