***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
Sherry and I have a system when we paint a room. She edges (aka: cuts in) and I roll. We both claim to have the more difficult job- and sometimes I think we’re both right (hello painting brick?), but this week’s prize could prove us both wrong…
The RYOBI Duet Power Paint System is specially made for two people who, like us, enjoy tackling a paint job together. We haven’t taken one for a spin yet, but the idea that both of us could have fresh paint pumped straight from the can to separate his-and-hers painting attachments (a roller for me, an edger for Sherry) almost makes us want to break out our paint swatches again. Heck, there’s even a sprayer attachment if someone’s feeling particularly daring.
But since we don’t have any looming paint projects to tackle, we want one lucky winner (and their handy painting assistant) to try this puppy on for size. Here’s how to enter:
- PRIZE: The RYOBI Duet Power Paint System (valued at $116)
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “DUET TO ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us your favorite musical duet of all time. Are you all about some old-school Sonny and Cher? Or does the more recent Madonna and Justin Timberlake collaboration rock your world?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 11th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: Anyone in the lower forty-eight US states
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!
**Psst- Want more free stuff? One lucky local can snag two coveted tickets to R. Home For The Holidays where guest speaker Eddie Ross will be chatting about seasonal decor by swinging over to our Facebook page and submitting your entry. We wouldn’t miss it for the world!

DUET TO ME!! I guess I am not much of a music person so I don’t have a favorite duet, but I think I will steal Johnny Cash and June Carter from Chelsea S. a few posts back. I do really like their music.
Christina says
Duet to me!
Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown! They ended up crack addicts but “I will always love you” guys and thats “My perogative”

I like when Tim McGraw and Faith Hill sing together :)

DUET TO ME! My fav duet has to be “the prayer” by celine dion and josh groban. I’m typically a hip hop/ r&b fan but I adore this song!
Jen G says

Does “More Than Words” by Extreme count?
Kelly says

Call me sappy, but I’m crazy about the duet in Moulin Rouge, “Come What May” :)
Meghan C. says
DUET TO ME
So this is a little different, but I’m obsessed with the show “Glee” right now, and their two song mash-ups are just awesome and fun!

Dolly and Kenny: “Islands in the stream.” Ultimate fav.

I can’t come up with any duets that I love right now. Aack! The pressure!
Yulia says
DUET TO ME
My husband and I have lofty hopes of painting two bedrooms this winter. This would surely come in handy!
Naomi says
DUET TO ME!
I’m also a fan of the Huey Lewis/Gwyneth Paltrow duet — who knew so many people had even seen that straight-to-DVD movie? I thought I was the only one.
Lizzie says
DUET TO ME!! Under Pressure by David Bowie and Queen… amazing.
Sara says
DUET TO ME!
Dreda Young says
Duet to me. I was thinking of the song “Sisters” in White Christmas. In one recording it was sung by Rosemary Clooney and her sister.
Katherine M. says
DUET TO ME!
I like Frank Sinatra so any duet with him is nice.
Danielle H says
“DUET TO ME”
I just recently heard Dave Matthews and Kenny Chesney. I never thought I would hear a duet from those two guys! Love it!

Reunited – Peaches and Herb
Britt Bernard says
DUET TO ME ! My husband & I just bought our first home, a 1920s two-story fixer-upper! I would love to have this to put to use in every last room of our house. My fave duet would probably be the unexpected combo of Wyclef Jean featuring Norah Jones in the song “Any other day”

DUET TO ME!!!
I had a weird, embarrassing, uncomfortable-to-admit place in my heart for the Lita Ford Ozzy Osbourne duet from the late 80s, “If I Close My Eyes Forever.”
Though the first tune that came to mind was the I Can Show You the World from Alladin where they’re flying around on the flying carpet, but that involves a very silly lip-syncing assignment in high school drama class.
DUET TO ME! says
Best I ever heard was Natalie Cole with a film of Nat King Cole – so beautiful.
And PS we just moved into a ranch painted head to toe in semigloss white. We NEED to paint!
Heather D. says
DUET TO ME
I’m super excited about this freebie. This one will be on the Christmas list this year.
I love Simon and Garfunkel.
Whitney Samberg says
DUET TO ME
Bob Marley & Lauryn Hill… Turn your lights down low. :)
Kristi J says
DUET TO ME! Hard question. Maybe Patty Smyth and Don Henley, “Sometimes Love Just Ain’t Enough.”
Winning this machine would definitely be the only way we’ll get around to painting before the baby comes.
P.S. Cutting in is the hardest, HANDS DOWN! ;)
Alicia says
Duet to Me!
Frank Sinatra and Cyndi Lauper sing Santa Clause is Coming to Town.
Lorenna says
DUET TO ME!
I also love Johnny Cash and June Carter!!!
Sarah says
DUET TO ME!!!
My husband and I have the same painting jobs as you two, he rolls, I edge. I don’t trust him with that job. :) I have so many favorite duets, it’s hard to pick just one. Any duet in Grease, any song that Allison Krauss sings with anybody. Love, love, love Ben Harper & Jack Johnson (from Curious George) can’t remember the name of the song, but I love the message.
Funnelcloud Rachel says
DUET TO ME
Ok – no favorite duet, but we have a LOT of rooms left to paint and we have the exact same painting method that you guys do – I do all the cutting in and he does all the rolling. This thing would make that so much easier!
Rachel says
Duet to me!
And definitely a sucker for Tim McGraw and Faith Hill duets… saw them live many years ago. :)
star squiggle says
DUET TO ME
Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra…….hands down the greatest duet
Heidi Jo says
Duet to me!
Favorite Duet?? Hmmm… I’m gonna have to go with The Swell Season right now– the duo from the movie Once- Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. The music they make together is so moving.
Amanda says
DUET to ME!
Well I don’t know about all time, since there are SO MANY great ones, but one that I really, really love is Beyonce and Tina Turner from the Grammy’s a few years back singing the “Rollin, Rollin, Rollin on a River” song… it was so great!
But, since I’m seeing Billy & Elton soon I’m willing to bet I’ll think their Piano Man duet is amazing!
Sarah says
DUET TO ME!
I love Crusin’ by Huey Lewis and Gwyneth Paltrow
Kristi says
“DUET TO ME”. I am a huge disney fanatic and nothing beats Aladdin and Jasmine, a whole new world! Ha:-)
Erin says
“DUET TO ME”
Heather says
DUET TO ME!!!
As for singing duets, it’s hard to top Bette Midler and Bob Dylan – Buckets of Rain. Or, Bette and Barry Manilow – Slow Boat to China. I just love Bette.
simpleginger says
DUET TO ME!
Would loooove this for the kitchen repaint we’re planing right now. Favorite duet: anything Faith and Tim McGraw for sure..there’s just something about them actually being in love while singing about it that I can’t get enough of.

I love the duet by Natalie Cole and her father Nat King Cole. At the time it was advanced technology to have them sing together in a video.

DUET TO ME!
What an awesome giveaway! We’re ready to repaint the first(and biggest) room that we painted when we first moved in 6 years and two more kids ago! This would so shorten the time.
I cannot think of my favorite, but my husbands is the Bing Crosby/David Bowie Christmas classic.

DUET TO ME….Islands in the Stream with Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, classic!!!!
