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.

Target Sabrina Soto

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.

    First, happy birthday, John! Second, I love Target for just about everything. There is one 1.6 miles from my condo…it’s the best and worst thing that’s ever happened to me. And they just put in a real grocery section!

    I AM A TARGET LADY! Seriously, I find it nearly impossible to pick a favorite find I have in my house from Target. I think it will have to be my new clock on the wall…or the “B” on our bookshelf. Maybe the rockin’ new fall dish towel hanging over my kitchen sink? I am a Target addict!

    The clearance rack always has a ton of great workout clothes, but my favorite item has to be my raincoat from a few years back – so classic (and cheap!)

    Almost everything in my house is from Target (my husband works there :) ) but my favorite item is probably a trunk we got on clearance when they used to do the GLOBAL BIZARRE section each year. It was originally $99 but I got it 75% off! I was so happy!

    My favorite Target score was a set of 12 wine glasses for around $15… great to break into two sets of six and gift with a bottle of wine. :)

    My favorite item I bought at Target is probably the Easel Floor Mirror. I first discovered it my last year of college but had no room for it in my tiny studio apt. About 6 mos later, I saw it again but couldn’t justify spending the money for it (my 1-bdrm apt cost a lot more in rent than my studio!) Finally, close to 2 years after I first saw and wanted the mirror, I finally bought it. I love it!

    And yes, Kristen Wiig as the Target Lady on SNL is absolutely HILARIOUS. I love me some K Wiig!

    Right now I’m loving the Champion workout clothes I got from Target. Very functional and at $9 a shirt, a bit more for pants, you can’t beat the prices (way cheaper than Under Armor or Nike stuff)
