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!

    There is no denying my love for Target. I can’t even name a favorite thing because I love everything about Target. My latest purchase though was a pair of flat boots. I fell in love with some designer ones ($500+), but didn’t want to spend that. Then I found similar ones by Steve Madden, but no one here sold then. Finally, I found IDENTICAL ones from Steven Madden on Target. Unfortunaly, Target here didn’t have the finish I wanted, but all was not lost: I got them in “leather” for $6 (!!!!) because they were a return from online. From $500 to $6… not to bad if I say so myself. :)

    I scored a Pre-lit Christmas Tree today with some store credit I had from a few months back. The tree was already on sale so I got it for the cost of tax which turned out to be $4! Not bad if I do say so myself!! :)

    I’m looking forward to William Rast (AKA Justin Timberlake) clothing to appear in Target stores mid-December. I would definitely use the “hundy dolla” on that.

    It’s one of my happy places. My 3 kids and I get some popcorn and stroll the aisles and ooh and aah. My favorite thing I’ve gotten from there is a painting of a vineyard somewhere Italian looking. It looks great in my front room.

    i have a plum wrap dress that was totally a steal at target. I love it for every season of the year. Paired with brights and light for summer and spring. With leggings and bold/dark colors for fall and winter. and we bought a sweet our door bench for our garden room/front patio. we were patient and waited for it to do on clearance .. an even better deal.

    I really and truly am. I love me some Target! My favorite Target score is my clearance brown and white pillows that have down filling. I was even more excited about my deal when I saw an Oprah episode that Nate did a makeover on and he used the exact same pillow.

    My husband and I got married and had very little money at the time. We received so many Target gift cards we were able to purchase numerous home furnishings. It’s one of my favorite things to do is show someone around our house and mention we didn’t have to “pay” for a single piece of furniture! It was AWESOME!!

    I pretty much love everything I buy at Target for different reason but my two faves are:
    1. my Grey Steve Madden imitation heels. Love them. They are so cute, comfortable and were much cheaper.
    2. A round mirror that I bought a few years back when i first moved in with my husband. Such a cute and stylish mirror for a good price.
