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 bought stuff to do my custom closet… If it weren’t in an 80 year old house with a closet the size of a postage stamp, it would be on the same level as a rock stars closet.

    Favorite item ever scored at Target: plastic animals from the dollar bin that I sprayed neon colors to make a bright nativity scene for Christmas decor. The classic nativity scenes are just too bland for me!

    Happiest of birthdays to you John. :)

    We registered at Target for our wedding 4 years ago and one of the items on our registry was a small framed painting of a field that reminded me of home…my Grandmother ended up buying this for us and every time I look at it I think of her and home!

    My favorite Target snag was the sheet set my hubby and I registered for when we got married. We are pretty much sheet snobs and like to splurge on really high end 1000 thread count sheets, but the 400 thread count sheet set was maybe the best I’ve ever slept on. Love them!

    Several years ago I scored a gorgeous orange leather handbag that, to this day, elicits oohs and ahhs. I was actually stopped by a waiter at a fancy-schmacy restaurant as he whispered “is that the new Marc Jacobs?” with wide eyes. LOL. Hooray for Tar-jay!

    Well, I live across the street from a Target, so it would be really hard to pinpoint just one thing I’ve bought from Target that I love the most. My entire house is filled with Target things and my closet is packed with Target clothes. Sorry, can’t do it.

    Just got two pair of leather motorcycle boots (the Katherine engineer boots) that look identical to Frye boots that cost hundreds of bucks. With daily deal pricing (including a buy one get one half off deal) and free shipping, both pairs together cost me under $60. How can you beat that?!

    My favorite Target item is my set of ivory dishes (set of 15) which I scored at their after Christmas sale a few years ago for 75% off. The awesome thing is that the holly design doesn’t really look very Christmasy so I can use them all year long! They are actually my dressier dishes I can use for the occasions that require something in between my everyday dishes and my fine china. Love, love, LOVE the deals at Target!

    My favorite thing from target would probably be my sheets! They are some super high thread count and they were on an awesome sale last year around the holidays. They are the exact color I was looking for and are so soft, and they were a steal!

    Our local target has what I call the “secret sale aisle”. It’s way in the back by the furniture and I once scored a dyson vacuum for half off from that special shelf. I always go check to make sure I’m not missing any other fabulous deals.
