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 buy everything at Target! I love their mossimo t-shirts, their cute notecards, their secret sale areas on the ends of the card aisles, their fun couch pillows, their bedroom comforter sets – have one now – and most recently, their grocery section! Target is my home away from home!
    Happy birthday John! :)

    I’m a Target lady! I’m still loving my ceramic yellow pot that I snagged on a clearance end for just around $2.00. Right now it’s camping out in the kitchen window hiding the hideous plastic green pot of my umbrella plant. But it might make its way into the bathroom to stash some rolled up washcloths. So versatile!

    I’m a target lady!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE target for all the affordable goodness that a young professional like myself can indulge in. Whether it’s clothes, accessories, or things for my apartment. My favorite thing that i bought from Target is this amazing metal and pearl-esq hurricane. It’s got these cut out leafy design on it and it’s just so earthy and whimsical. The motion of the “leaves” reminds me of soemthing so natural without looking like a fancy candle holder.

    My favorite Target find, as of recent, has to be a basket I use for “prizes” for my kids as rewards. I had this vision in my head of what I wanted and some how my vision was sitting on the shelf below the price I expected to pay!

    I used to drive by a Target on my way home from an internship a long time ago, which I ended up stopping at at least once a week. I loved checking out the aisle ends for clearance, and got a nice paper shredded for 10$ It still works like a dream and super practical.

    Happy Birthday!

    Not sure yet if it’s my favorite, but I just came home from Target. Bought a clear glass trifle dish for 9.99 that I’m going to use on my dining room table. My initial thought was to put pretty Christmas ornament balls in it to decorate for Christmas, but I might use it all year round with other fun stuff :)

    And Happy, Happy Birthday to you!
