Fab Freebie: The Target Lady

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***

I love today. Not just because it’s my 29th birthday, but because we are giving away a gift card to (drumroll, por favor)… TARGET!

We don’t really need to waste time reminding you guys how much we love Target (we’ve got about a million posts like this and this to prove it). I even created this graphic to try to convey how excited we are:

Target 100 Hundred

Can you handle that enthusiasm?

And while I always love a good opportunity to reference SNL’s Target Lady, this time I’m going to mention a different woman paired up with the red bullseye: HGTV’s Sabrina Soto. Sabrina is Target’s “Style Expert for Home,” which means she’s serving up design tips to to those of us who like affordable Tar-jay wares and coming home to a stylish space. She’s even got a bunch of tip-filled videos over on Target’s styleboutique blog.

But enough chitchat. Here’s how you can score the hundy dolla gift card:

  • PRIZE: A hundred beans (in gift cards form) to spend at Target!
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M A TARGET LADY” (or “I’M A TARGET GENTLEMAN” if you’re rocking a Y chromosome like me) and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about your favorite item that you’ve ever scored at Target. Do you love it because it’s especially stylish? Especially functional? Or maybe just especially affordable?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 17th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 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…

******************************

And our very lucky winner (as selected by random.org) is… Ashley A. (who’s loves and can’t stop seem to buying Target clothes). Congrats!

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 Target.

    I’m a target lady! I bought a tall and lovely white ceramic vase on clearance. Everyone asks me where I bought it. Probably the best $16.48 I’ve ever spent.

    I’d have to say my best Target “score” are my leather boots that are exact knockoffs of another brand (that costs around $200) that I got for only $50! Oh that and all my clothes I buy there! I love Target!

    I’M A TARGET LADY! I love anything from Target–I love that I go to buy a bottle of shampoo, but I come out with a new outfit, a movie, and some snacks–most likely forgetting the shampoo, thus necessitating another trip to Target!

    I have gotten so many fabulous deals over the years that I couldn’t possibly name them all. I guess my favorite find would be a vintage style Little Black Dress for $30. I wear it all the time and always receive complements on it.

    We got a storage ottoman for our entryway to store our shoes. It makes the space so much more streamlined and clean. Not to mention all the other goodies we’ve picked up and/or drooled over there. I love Target!

    Stylish, functional and affordable, a pendant light that was randomly on clearance for $9; yet people think it is some mid-mod classic.

    I haunt Target so frequently that my daughter used to sign “popcorn” whenever she saw red, concentric circles, LOL. Hard to pick one favorite…my current love is a $12 car coat length trench coat that I bought for my five year old fashionista. ADORABLE!

    Happy Birthday to you! My favorite Target purchase is probably the long no slip rug I bought to put by my (elderly) puppy’s food dish so she can lie down and stand up easier. It’s so pretty as well as being functional that it makes me smile.
