Fab Freebie: Let’s Be Honest

*** This giveaway is closed – see who won below!***

The randomly-selected-and-very-lucky lady in this week’s giveaways is… BeccaK (who wishes “I could trust the lube & oil folks when I go for an oil change – is a radiator flush REALLY necessary?”) I’m with ya on that one Becca. Congrats!

As much as we love a good looking home, we also like ours to be as good for the Bean and the Burger as possible. So this week we’re dishing out $500 worth of products from The Honest Company to keep your casa clean and green. You may know this family-friendly company thanks of their familiar-faced co-founder, the lovely Jessica Alba. And when you check out their online shop – which spans baby & body care to cleaning products – you’ll see words like organic, non-toxic, reusable, and plant-based peppered throughout… and they also donate time, money, and product to charity. So this week’s winner can go to town on their site with a $500 credit (might we suggest treating yourself to a year’s worth of their family bundle subscription?).

Honest Co Giveaway

  • PRIZE: $500 of product from The Honest Company
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’LL BE HONEST!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … something you wish people had to be honest about answering (think Jim Carrey in Liar Liar). Do you wish people couldn’t sugarcoat the answer to “does this make me look fat?” Do you wish repairmen (or women) had to give you a straight answer about when they’ll actually show up? Do you wish you could finally get your parents to fess up to who their favorite child is?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Aug 15th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • DISCOUNT: $10 off orders of $50 or more with code YHL10off50 (good through Aug 20th, valid on first purchase for new members)
  • 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 winner. Good luck…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of The Honest Company.

    I’LL BE HONEST!

    I wish all contractors would be honest about whether they have time to complete a project and when the project will be finished. We just spent two months waiting for a contractor to start on a project, but every week he would come up with some new reason why he couldn’t get started. We finally just found someone else, and voila, the project was done in just over a week.

    I appreciate honesty in business. As for the occasional little fib, I usually don’t mind if you are trying to avoid hurting someone’s feelings. It bothers me when you lie to deceive or are unable to admit you made a mistake.

    I’LL BE HONEST….

    …I wish sometimes our oncologist didn’t have to be honest when it came to the prognosis about my husband’s cancer. (Diagnosed in June 07 with RCC/Kidney Cancer) which gave only a 10% survival rate at the five year mark. (Stage 4).

    But I love being HONEST when June ’12 came and went, and he became one of 10% who HAS survived (and have THRIVED) at this point. Can’t shut me up about it.

    Thanks for another neat giveaway program Sherri and John.

    Sincerely,
    Suzanne & Kevin L in Rock Falls, Illinois

    “I’ll be honest!” I was going to say I wish people would be honest about whether they truly like something. Whether it’s an outfit or curtains- if I’m asking, I REALLY want to know! But I would agree with Alisa D, I want politicians to just be honest about who they are and their intentions instead of what polls and surveys tell them to be!
