Fab Freebie: Here’s Looking At You, Mate

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Good news: everyone can get 10% off their MirrorMate order with code VIRAL. And if they get 1000 new Facebook followers or new email subscribers, that code doubles to 20% for everyone. But here’s the better news (at least for one of you): random.org has chosen our winner as… Jessica (who says she’s usually checking the mirror to “make sure nothing is obviously out of place or gross”). Congrats!

So maybe I fudged that line from Casablanca a little. Thanks for letting it slide. It’s turning out to be a mirror-tastic day today, so if you’re stuck with a basic builder mirror that’s held up unceremoniously by dinky plastic clips, this is your shot to score an easy and elegant upgrade thanks to MirrorMate. You can customize a frame that sticks right over your existing clips, for a nice little mirror makeover. Check out more before & afters (and shop their collection of frame styles) here on their site (and on their Facebook page).

Mirror Mate Giveaway

  • PRIZE: A $200 gift certificate to MirrorMate, which will cover most frames.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “LOOK AT ME! and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … confess what you spend the most time looking at when you’re in front of a mirror. Are you always fixing your hair? Doing outfit checks? Making sure nothing’s in your teeth. Or – be honest – are you constantly leaning in to examine every last pore on your face?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 8th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The US and Canada
  • 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 on Thursday for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from MirrorMate.

    LOOK AT ME!!! I could definitely use a mirror mate gift card – I recently purchased two pretty mirrors to replace our HUGE builder grade mirror. We removed the monster and found holes in the wall, complete with studs exposed. Ouch…. we hung it back up and returned the small mirrors!!

    These days, when I look into the mirror I’m checking out my baby bump!!!!

    LOOK AT ME! It totally depends… If it is just me getting ready in the morning, it’s the “I hope I didn’t get toothpaste in my hair or on my shirt” check or making sure the make-up doesn’t make this grade one teacher look like a “lady of the night”… If company is coming over, it is usually the “nuts, there’s all that strange water splatter again”. Really, I would like to know who shakes their hands like a wet dog after they wash their hands in my sink!

    LOOK AT ME! I usually look in the mirror when fixing my hair — blow drying then straightening or curling (a long time!) I close on my FIRST house on Friday (the 10th) and the kitchen and bathrooms sure need some updating! I’m excited for the opportunity to possibly win! :)
