***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***
You know we love a deal. Especially around the holidays when it’s so easy to bleed money. Which is why we’re psyched to have two of our favorite discount stores, T.J. Maxx and Marshalls, here to help us kick off the whole holiday shopping scene by handing over two $50 gift cards that can be spent on gifts, festive seasonal decor, or whatever else tickles your fancy.
We’ve always loved snagging cheap finds for our house at both stores – like the nailhead trimmed ottoman in our bedroom (from T.J. Maxx) and just about every pillow in our den (from Marshalls).
But enough about us. Here’s how you can enter to win one of the two gift cards that are up for grabs:
- PRIZE: A $50 gift card good at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “MAXX ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …let’s talk about holiday shopping lists. What’s on the top of your list for yourself? And what are you most excited to be giving?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 1st at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 48 contiguous United States
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners 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…
******************************
And our two very lucky winners (as selected by random.org) are… Anna (who’s got her eye on boots for herself and a globe for her bro) and Kellie C (who’s looking forward to the painting and wainscoting being gifted by her husband) Congrats you two!
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 T.J. Maxx and Marshalls.

We’ve placed a budget on gifts this year so we can focus on getting things done around the house. I have no clue what my hubby will be getting me but I have commissioned two custom graphics for him that will not only be hung in the house but will also be printed onto a tshirt & onesie. We’ve been talking of trying for a baby for some time so I’m scheduling an appointment right after xmas to nix the bc as a surprise. That man is so excited to be a dad!

I really want some furniture… We’re searching Craigslist for some good stuff all the time!
I honestly have no idea what I’m giving this year. This is the first Christmas that my husband and I wont be spending with family… so we’re still pondering what we can send through the mail without spending a fortune!

MAXX ME!!!! I would love a Silouette and am giving home made gifts.
Lauren Owens says
MAXX ME!!! What I REALLY want this year is a new couch for our living room; this will probably be my gift to my hubby as well as his gift to me. We still have my hubby’s parent’s old couch, and the red, green, and yellow plaid doesn’t really fit in with our chocolate brown and blues.
Amanda L. says
MAXX ME!
I am super excited for my compound miter saw. I can’t wait to start building with it.
I am most excited to give a first edition Harpo Speaks by Harpo Marx to my husband. This book is very important to him and someone borrowed it but never returned it. This book was very important during our courtship since he (unknowingly) lent it to me to see if I liked it. Since I loved it, he decided I was the one for him. He often said that he would never get married or have kids until he read this book.
Tara says
