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.

    My favorite was purchased for us from our Target registry (wedding). It was a beautiful set of dishes. Black on the outside and a sort of crackle finish on the inside in a bright indigo blue. It included plates, bowls, mugs, etc. We love them and use them everyday. Best gift ever!

    Recently, my favorite purchase from Target was one of their SnapWare products…a lot like this one: http://www.target.com/Snapware-2-Layer-Halloween-Costume-Container/dp/B003U7OYIY/ref=huc_ic_1_pn

    I was looking for a cupcake/baked goods carrying case that wasn’t $20. I found this which has two layers deep enough for frosted treats and can double as a storage container for my cookie cutters (or anything, really)! The price: $11.99 and it is dual purpose. Gotta love Target!

    I’m a “TARGET LADY”.

    My favorite item I purchased from Target was a DWELL pillow with bright chartreuse flowers on it that I placed in an apartment I designed for the local YWCA Women’s Shelter. It added just the right cheer and punch of color – a happy pillow that I hope will bring smiles to the women who stay there.

    I’M A TARGET LADY: My favorite thing that I ever purchased at Target is a beautiful fallish centerpiece for my dining room table…I’ve actually moved it around here and there, but it spends most of it’s time in my dining room…it’s so pretty.

    Got some awesome shelves a couple of years back on final markdown. That and a local store had so many extra paper towels at the end of the year that I got a big package of Bounty for like $7 bucks.

    We always do ALL of our grocery shopping at Target and then treat ourselves to a little browsing in the other departments. I don’t think I can come up with just one item … I love everything, from organizational compartments and stationary to towels and linens to kitchen supplies!

    My favorite score from Target to day is nothing crazy (by most peoples standards). Just a bathroom shelf. However, I scored it marked down from 50 bucks to just 15! It is *perfect* in our bathroom too!

    I love everything at Target, but what we score the best deals on? Movie candy! There’s a Target right next to our local theater, so we always stop there before hand for Starbursts and Pretzel M&Ms. SO much cheaper (although the smuggling in my purse is probably frowned upon, haha)!

    Oh man, what a hard question! I love a ruffled purple tank I bought there for $15 two summers ago. I still wear it a lot! I also love the food I buy every two weeks to keep me alive. My Jillian Michaels workout DVDs….the list goes on and on! I would need to search around for a while so I could remember all the things I’ve bought from Target before deciding which one is the best!
