***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
According to random.org, our two giveaway winners are… Amy I. (who’d enjoyed a weekend away and then a few days at home for her pretend spring break) and DebbieRN (who’d go to Sanibel Island).
Don’t you wish there was a no-adult-left-behind official grown-up spring break? Since many of the kids in our county are out of school this week, it made us think about how nice it would be if every adult scored the same week-long break from the office grind. Luckily this week’s prize from The Office Stylist promises to inject some fun (and function) to your desk job. They’ve got loads of tips and services for amping up your workspace, including an online shop that’s stuffed with colorful and stylish organizational items – from floral file folders to ceramic business card holders and everything in between. And they’re hooking two lucky winners up with $50 cards to spend however they’d like.
- PRIZE: A $50 gift certificate towards Sorting With Style by The Office Stylist
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “GIMME A BREAK!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … pretend that every grown up got a spring break. What would you do? Would you go somewhere exotic? Would you just relax at home? Or would you throw a huge party for all the other on-break adults?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, April 20th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States and Canada!
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday morning for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…
Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Sorting With Style

GIMME A BREAK!
I would love to take a trip somewhere, budget permitting, if I had a spring break. Maybe a road trip. If not, I’d be happy to stay home, take the dog to the beach, get our grill out and ready for the summer, and have some friends over for a barbecue.
Beth says
GIMME A BREAK!
I would declare a housework-free week – a week of actual vacation, not “I have a week off and really should do all my chores”!
Savannah Kirsche says
GIMME A BREAK!!!
I would just like to sit at home and not work for an entire week, that would be good enough for me.
Kimberly says
GIMME A BREAK!
I used to work at a college where all the employees got spring break and fall break when the students did, but I switched jobs and at my new college, we don’t get that benefit. :( But that’s the beauty of vacation days, right? You can have your spring break whenever you want it! I want another cruise!

GIMME A BREAK!
If I got a break, I would love to drive up my lovely state’s (California) coast. I’ve done it before, but it is such a pretty drive and it is so relaxing, I would love to do it again!
Megan says
GIMME A BREAK!
I’d stop working on my thesis for a whole week (something I haven’t done in two years, isn’t graduate school fun?) and take my mom to the beach. We could eat tasty food, relax in the hot tub, and wiggle our toes in the sand while catching up.
Kristen says
GIMME A BREAK! I would stay home. My boyfriend works from home, so I would get to see him. Plus clean/watch reality TV/bake/read/nap. Sounds lovely!

GIMME A BREAK!
I would head straight for the hills and plan a week of camping and hiking.
sarajane says
GIMME A BREAK! – Hubby’s a teacher and I am an office drone, but we attempted to go to our cabin in Northern Wisconsin for his spring break – but they got 18″ of snow, right before we were to leave. We had a lovely stay-cation. And since it snowed in Illinois this morning, I would like to go to a nice warm beach.
Ashley says
GIMME A BREAK! We have snow in Wisconsin. Nuff said!
Jennifer says
GIMME A BREAK!
I would love to go on another cruise (3 already, looking to catch up with my mom’s 11)!
Leanne says
“GIMME A BREAK!”
I’d love a week away somewhere remote with my honey – nowhere to go, nothing to do, no phones/computers, just relaxation. But even a week off together at home to get caught up on life would be wonderful!
Kelsey B says
GIMME A BREAK!
I would most definitely take a nice, long beach vacation. I can hear the OBX calling now!

Rebekah Korpan says
GIMME A BREAK!
I would travel europe
katie says
“GIMME A BREAK!”
I would use my week long break to tackel some much needed home projects! It seems as if weekends are never long enough to get all the things I want to do done and still manage to take time for family!
Maybe I would need two spring breaks and a summer vacation! lol!
Courtney says
GIMME A BREAK! I would go to a tropical beach!
Virginia says
Gimme a break! Such cuteness — want those file folders!
If every adult got a spring break this year, I’d stay home and plant my garden. It’s so relaxing and addictive and the weekends are just too short!
Stephanie L. says
GIMME A BREAK!
I’m six months pregnant and definitely in need of a break from my job. Preferably at the beach.

Kaiann says
GIMME A BREAK!
I would go somewhere tropical!!!
Kristin says
GIMME A BREAK!
I’d do lots of thrifting and lots of home projects. But then again, I might just sit around all day and mindlessly watch television – once the slug gets its teeth in, it’s hard to fight back!
Lindsay says
GIMME A BREAK!
I would definitely go on vacation – somewhere in the caribbean.
Susan M. says
GIMME A BREAK! I think I would go some place to sit in the sand and do absolutely nothing. I’ve got a kid graduating from high school next month and this has been one busy year! I would love to have some of their items in my office and I also think they would make graduation gifts.
Maggie says
GIMME A BREAK! – Oh, how lovely that would be. I’d try to do it all: clean, party, go to the beach, sleep in – it all sounds wonderful.
Amy says
GIMME A BREAK!
I’d actually spend the week organizing my house though…

Aruba… Or somewhere equally warm and exotic for a week away with my husband!

GIMME A BREAK!
I’d like to take a trip anywhere warm right now (preferrably with beaches) because it’s snowing in Michigan today! Ugh!
Jen M says
GIMME A BREAK!
I think I would spend the majority of the week relaxing and then throw a spring break party at the end of the week for a fun ending :)
