Win a $500 Merry Maids Gift Card and Tons of Method Products
Update: This week's contest is now closed. Check back Monday to find out the winner, and to enter our next Birthday Blog Party Giveaway!
We really wish we could win this week's birthday giveaway for ourselves! Merry Maids is giving one lucky reader a $500 gift card for home cleaning, which is just amazing. The number of cleanings will depend on your location and the size of your house or apartment—but whose home couldn't use some serious first aid from the professionals? In the time your family will save cleaning, you can do something really fun together—or treat yourself!
As if that isn't fantastic enough, you'll also score a Method detox kit (with everything you need for a squeaky-clean house), baby detergent and softener-infused dryer sheets. We hate to clean, but Method's cool and environmentally-friendly products actually make us excited about it.
To enter to win, just post a comment on this post (click on "comments") by midnight ET on Friday February 22. We'll post the winner on the following Monday, and if you don't win, don't worry: We're giving away great stuff all month long, so check back to enter to win next week's prize. Goody Luck!
Full rules here.
This is a prize I could really use!!
