Fab Freebie: Gifts In Bloom

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won (and check out a special discount!)***

It’s the season of giving, aka: the season of gifting. Which is why this week’s giveaway from GiftTree.com should come in handy. Fresh blooms always make a room feel more festive and inviting, especially around the holidays. And GiftTree has a great selection of florals with some holiday flair:

Gift Tree Xmas Bouqet

And no worries if you’re having trouble deciding whether to send a bouquet to your loved one or just to yourself. The $100 gift card that’s up for grabs means you can actually do both.

Gift Tree Belle Ball

Here are all the dirty deets:

  • PRIZE: An $100 gift card towards anything on GiftTree.com, including flowers (they’re made by local florists & may vary slightly from the pics).
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “GIFT ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …tell us about a time you were surprised by a gift (whether it was a bouquet of flowers or something else). Maybe your guy got you a dozen roses “just because”? Or you came home to a wrapped present on your half birthday?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 8th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The fifty United States
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

******************************

Not only do we have one winner, but everyone can get 10% off any order on GiftTree.com with code YHL10. Happy gifting everyone!

And our lucky winner (as selected by random.org) is… Roshni (who gets surprised often by her husband, so she couldn’t pick just one instance as her favorite). Congrats!

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from GiftTree.

    Right before my husband deployed a few months ago, he and my two-year-old son went to the grocery store and came back with a rose for me. It was so sweet!

    The best surprise ever came from my boyfriend in the form of a used car with a huge red bow on it, after I had just crashed a loaner car a couple of days earlier which I felt really bad about.

    I was sick a couple of years ago and out of work for quite some time. Two dear friends of mine from work sent me one of those edible arrangements. It was such a nice surprise to see the delivery truck pulling into my driveway!

    GIFT ME!! My husband just surprised me with Belgian chocolates for my birthday-yummy! But we would love some flowers for our rental house, we are renovating and most of our stuff is packed away because we are here for such a short time. It would definitely make it feel more festive here!

    GIFT ME! My surprise came from my husband on valentine’s day. At the time we had only been dating a month or so, i had actually gone home to my parents for a vacation. I remember the morning because i was having tea with my mom, when the door bell rang. My mom answered the door, surprised as well. My husband had done some detective work. he’d tracked down my parents address (which by the way is in Canada) and than had managed to find a local bakery. My gift was my very own heart shaped cake that read” be my valentine, eh?”. I’m canadian, and this cake was a huge surprise to myself and my family. We all ate cake for a week.

    The most surprising gift was one Valentine’s Day my husband arranged for 4 Dickens Carolers to come to my office and present me with a rose and note that he “thought the world of me” and than break into “Let Me Call You Sweetheart” in front of the whole office. I was at first mortified but after the shock I enjoyed it and was the talk of the office for a long time. Guys!!!

    My husband had just left for back-to-back business trips that would keep him away for nearly three weeks. I came home from work to discover love notes that he left around the house…in the refrigerator, in my closet, on my nightstand. It was the sweetest and most unexpected gift b/c that was very out of character for him to do.

    Best surprise are all the gifts I get from my sweetie just because. Sometimes I’ve had a hard day at work and there’s a little gift waiting for me at home. It makes me so happy.

    When my husband and I were engaged, I was still in school and he had to move to warmer climates for a job. One blustry winter day (in MI) he sent me a cashmere sweater with a ‘thinking warm thoughts of being with you’ card. Still one of the best gifts and card ever.

    My husband rarely gives flowers but one day he knew I had an especially tough day at work and I came home to a pretty rose on our dining table. I took it to work the next day to remind me of the thoughtful and caring partner I had waiting for me at home. It made my whole week better!

    A wonderful surprise gift I received once was on my 1st Mother’s Day. I was pregnant with our 1st child and my dad made an insensitive comment that I was not technically a mother b/c my child wasn’t born yet (whateva!). I was whining about it on the phone to my hubby (who was several states away, as we were moving due to a job promotion and I was finishing my last semester of law school) when the doorbell rang and a beautiful bouquet of flowers was delivered to me…wishing me a Happy Mother’s Day…from my wonderful husband! :)

    The best gift I ever received was on my birthday a few years ago. The company my husband worked for had him working out of town all the time and he was hardly home for the first year of our marriage. My birthday was coming up and he was gone and I was upset about it. I came home from work to find him standing the the kitchen with a big boquet of flowers.
