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 shop there every week and I particularly like the beauty corner where the choice is great.

    Happy Birthday, and I am a Target Lady!!

    My favorite thing ever from Target was a Christmas present from my husband. One year I saw this red and white knit blanket with reindeer, and I flipped out. It looked exactly like this tiny sweater we have that my grandmother knitted for my dad, and my siblings and I also wore it when we were little. The next year they had one with snowflakes, and my sweet husband got me that one too! Love my blankets :)

    My favorite things I’ve scored at target? Um, I got all my college gear there, lot’s of xmas decorations there. We get my husbands no-smoking patches there (the target brand doesn’t itch as much AND is cheaper). We had our wedding registry there.

    I actually think I’m going to say our mica lamps. Their torchiers and look like the dome part is mica and they let out a soft glow of light without being blinding. I actually was looking on their website today because I want more, but I don’t think they still carry them. *sadface!*

    I am wearing my all-time favorite Target find right now! It is a navy and white striped boyfriend cardigan with a shawl collar. And it’s light enough that I can layer it in the colder months, but it still gets a lot of use during warmer months during cool evenings. And I think I only paid $3 for it! Yay!

    My favorite item from Tar-jay would have to be our 2-tier console table. We bought it in natural maple finish and stained it with a darker shade to match the rest of our living room furniture. It’s functional and very affordable.

    Totally a true statement. What haven’t I loved from Target? They offer so many things that mimic the uber expensive stylish stuff, at such a reasonable price! Like dishware, organizers, baskets, and throw pillows! I can never get out of there without snagging something for our home, so this would be just fab!

    The best thing from Target? I don’t know, I buy everything there. I love my Target jersey sheets. I’ve been really enjoying my multiple pairs of Target basketball shorts lately. Pretty much all the underwear I own comes from Target. Halloween candy – Target of course. The list goes on…

    My favorite bargain that I found was a maternity bathing suit for $4 just in time for summer when I was 7 months pregnant. I got so many compliments on that thing.

    My favorite decor related find was a wooden birdcage which we used at our wedding for our card holder on the gift table. It was only $20 and I addeds some flowers on top to match our wedding colors.

    I love Target!
