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:
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.
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…

When I moved away to college my parents surprised me with a car! I do not come from a wealthy family so this was a BIG surprise!

I was surprised with a bouquet of flowers by my hubby one day when he just wanted to say, “I love you and our baby in your belly.” :)
And I’d also like to add that I would LOVE to win this to send something beautiful to my grandma. I just got off the phone with her and she’s coming home tomorrow from a trip to say her last goodbye to her brother who isn’t doing well and is dying from cancer. :'( So, I’d love this to cheer her up!

Gift Me!
This past Valentines Day, my long distance boyfriend came into town to visit, but surprised me by having flowers delivered at home while he was there instead of bringing them with him. I was definitely surprised!
Wendy says
GIFT ME! A few years ago for my birthday, my husband filled the whole house with balloons while I was sleeping. When I woke up they were everywhere; the closet, drawers, bathtub, fridge, kitchen cabinets, even my car! Super sweet and funny.

Erin says
GIFT ME! I work for an elementary school and was pleasantly surprised to find a small bouquet of flowers from the secretaries thanking me for my teamwork and hard work at the building. As a school psychologist, I rarely receive thanks and this was such a wonderful surprise. It made my day!
Erin says
GIFT ME! I was completely blown away by my then-boyfriend (now-fiance’s) Christmas present to me last year. It was a beautiful tea set, mailed all the way to where I was working up in Washington! Completely took me by surprise, and the fact that it came in a big mysterious package helped too!
Lexi says
I have some really great surprises from my Dad, he is such a good Dad! One that stands out to me is my freshman year of college, I was insanely homesick and taking classes that were harder than I had ever anticipated. I had studied my butt off for my first Chemistry exam and parents weekend was approaching and Dad wasn’t coming, which I was bummed about. When I got a phone call from the book store that I had a gift to pick up, I thought they had the wrong person! Low and behold, Dad had sent me a balloon that said congratulations with a note to check my campus box for a surprise. He had ordered me the Burbery Brit perfume that had just come out and I really wanted, but was out of my college budget. It was just what I needed to boost my confidence and get over my first month of college anxiety!
April says
GIFT ME!
I wasn’t surprised by a gift so much as its presentation. My husband is horrible at those cute-but-pointless, sappy details (like love notes, or cutting the sandwich into a heart, etc.). So imagine my surprised when I came home from work on my birthday and there was a birthday banner, ribbons, balloons, and a follow-the-clues hunt for my gift! It was fantastic. :D
Karen says
GIFT ME!
I’m lucky, I have a husband who regularly comes home with small, sweet tokens of affection.
RJ says

Laura says
GIFT ME!
My boyfriend bought me a ring (no, not that kind of ring) on my 25th birthday… and he was so excited to give it to me that he couldn’t wait until my birthday dinner. He threw on his workout clothes and drove over to school, where I was finishing up a class. Then, gave it to me right after I walked out of the building. Definitely a sweet surprise :)

Carrie says
GIFT ME! The first year I didn’t get to spend Christmas with my family, my mom pulled a sneaky santa and sent a picture of my childhood home at Christmas that she painted. I was so surprised and it is my favorite holiday decoration to hang every year!!!

GIFT ME!
My parents surprised me with a car (very used and a car payment) when I was 17, it came with a lot of strings attached, but it was better than the $300 rust bucket I had with no a/c, no heat, and no windshield wipers!

In my first year of graduate school I was baking cookies every weekend and sharing them with the other first-year physics students. At Christmas they all surprised me with a hand mixer, cookie cutters, and some other baking tools, and lots of thanks for all the cookies… it was awesome, especially since I wasn’t expecting anything in return

I was surprised with a ‘tutu’ handmade for the cake table at our wedding by my aunt. Mmmmm. I saw it after we were already married and just arriving at the reception site. By that time in the day you just have to laugh…and appropriate appreciation of course :)
