***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.

After moving for the 3rd time in less than 5 years, I’ve decided I want a Kindle for Christmas this year. Less boxes of books to pack. :) I’m excited about all the “santa” gifts for my kids this year…especially for my 2-year-old. It will be especially magical for her.

Brianna says
Maxx Me! (T-ta-ta-T-ta-ta T J Maxx) Now I’ll sing that the rest if the evening.
I bought my gift for myself tonight! Silhouette SD Cutter. I told my husband I would rather order it now on sale then get it later and skip the Christmas.
As for buying presents, we boycotted and really aren’t doing any shopping at all except for our son, niece and a couple of cousins (under 10). I can’t tell you the stress reliever! I know it disappointed a few gift buyers that we didn’t want anything, but really we have everything we need, most of what we want, and we would rather spend Christmas stress free and in the company of friends than running around trying to find tie clips etc.
Plus we now have the option of buying something unique throughout the year and giving an unexpected gift for family. Who doesn’t appreciate a random gift?
