In the spirit of a week of cleaning & organizing, who could use a new lawn mower to tidy things up outside? Well, someone’s getting this puppy (valued at $339) thanks to Lawn-Boy. It’s self propelled, easy to start, and features a “Blade Stop” system that allows you to turn off the blades without killing the engine, which comes in handy if you’ve got a lawn frequently peppered with sticks or toys (not that I’m speaking from experience or anything).
- PRIZE: The Lawn-Boy 10605 Mower
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “OH BOY!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … your favorite boy band of all time. Are you digging the new guys (One Direction, The Wanted)? Or do the ones from back in the day (Backstreet Boys, NSYNC) still get you going? How about the really old school ones (NKOTB, Boys II Men, Menudo)? Or have you rolled your eyes at this whole question?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, May 2nd at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
- 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 on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Tanya says
OH BOY! Not much into these youngie boy bands but I sure loved the Beatles! Do they qualify?
Linda says
OH BOY!
Boy bands you say? I’m sure I must have be-bopped to some boy bands back in the day, but I think I’ve repressed the memories! I just can’t remember which is which. So for the sake of self preservation I’ll put myself in the camp of rolling my eyes at the question ;-)
Kristin says
OH BOY!
I can’t say I have a favorite boy band (honestly, I love tem all – new, old, really old, and really really old), but I will confess that I used to have a poster of NKOTB hanging in my bedroom back when.

Helen says
OH BOY!! I’m originally from England – so it has to be Take That!

Helen says
OH BOY!! I’m from England originally, so it has to be Take That – ahhhh, the memories ;)
Patricia says
OH BOY!!!! Do I need a new lawnmower or what? My current mower cost me $200 last year. It now doesn’t work and need $225 worth of repairs! My yard looks like a wheat field!
on the music thang… I’m OLD. Apparently. Strictly Duran Duran (old stuff) would suit my ears when it comes to the Boy Band question!

Leslie F says
OH BOY!!!!!!!

I was never really into boy bands, but I do like Boys II Men. And now, in what is payback for what I put my mother through in my music tastes, my 13 yr old daughter is completely obssessed with One Direction!
Valerie G says
OH BOY!

Leslie F says
I think I have to go “old school” and show my age. No question it’s Boyz II Men!!
Lesli says
OH BOY! Sadly, I am one of those rolling their eyes at this. I always thought the dancing moves combined with the syncopated pop songs was just a bit precious for my taste.
Chrissie says
Oh BOY! Gotta say my fav boy bad of all time has to be NKOTB! I mean their faces were on every poster & bedspread in the early 90’s. They are a classic!
