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! OOOOOOooooooooo lord, am I a target lady?!

    Hundreds of awesome deals, but one of my faves is a tall standing lamp that was on clearance for $40 – originally $100. It has a bamboo-looking base with a dark red shade. LOVE IT!

    Trying to pick one favorite item from Target is like the two of you trying to decide if Burger or Clara is cuter– it’s impossible! I shop there for clothes, gifts, home decor, and so much more. I’m a huge fan of the clearence endcaps where I’ve picked up great steals like table runners, mugs, and bowls for less than $10!

    I love a bookcase I scored at Target for my living room. It’s has a cherry finish and works so well with my other furniture while storing photos and some favorite books.

    I think my favorite finds from Tar-jay are in the clothing department, though now that I’ve got an apt to call my own, the home decor section seems to see more and more of me!

    One of my favorite finds was a ear small blue vase. It is my go to vase. It was really cheap and totally stylish. The top is small enough that I can put cut flowers from my yard in it and it looks fabulous.

    Seriously. I love that dang store. I love that the HQ is in my city – there’s at least one Target in every suburb around here!

    One of my favorite recent scores was a set of smokey glass lamps (that look a lot like the one that you have in the “We’re Digging” section) and cream-colored lampshades for under $60. I think the full price of each lamp was something like $65 or $70. Go, clearance end caps!!! :)

    Hard to pick a favorite. Some days I look down and realize that I am literally a walking target ad, as every piece of clothing (down to my socks and skivvies) was purchased at target.

    I’M A TARGET LADY!! Favorite item purchased from Target has been my exercise ball that I’ve used as a desk chair, birthing ball, deflatable “rocking chair” (read “deflated, packed in my suitcase, and reinflated in the hotel room”) when traveling with my then-infant, and best toy ever for my now-toddler. Haven’t used it for its actual exercise purposes to date. :)

    I’M A TARGET LADY – Our latest item of joy from Target was a super toaster/convection oven. And it was on sale! Believe it or not, we’re trying to make an old 1950’s double car garage into a home! So the oven was a necessary and already well-loved addition.
    And Happy Birthday John!

    My husband and I wouldn’t be clothed if it weren’t for Target, and we love all of their home supplies. Could spend hours there…one of our best purchases was a big black bookcase. or maybe the little red telephone booth for $10 that holds sentimental value for us both.
