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!

    I’m all about Summer Lovin’ with Danny and Sandy. I’ve relived that one for lip syncing contests when I was younger, and even made a boyfriend dress up as Danny (and me as Sandy) for a famous couples frat party–what a good sport!

    I’d have to say Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes singing I’ve Had the Time of My Life (yes, from Dirty Dancing). Not because its great but because my husband does a hilarious spoof on the song and I chime in for the duet parts. Good times :)

    DUET TO ME!

    My favorite duet would have to be Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow. The song is okay, but their voices blend well together.

    I would love to win this prize. I have so many rooms to paint in my house. Just like you and Sherry, the hubby and I split up the task. I cut in and he rolls. Works well that way…and so much faster if we won this nifty tool!

    BTW…thanks for all the awesome posts. I love reading your blog…everyday!

    While I’d love to say my husband and I while cruising up I-95, no one would agree. Gwyneth Paltrow and Huey Lewis in “Duets” are my absolute favorite. Their version of “Cruisin'” still makes me smile all these years later.
