Fab Freebie: Duet To It

***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…

Ryobi Couple Painting

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.

  • 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!

    DUET To me!

    I have like 1400 square feet of rooms to paint in the next month!! this sure would be handy! LOL.

    I don’t know about a favorite duet, but an unusual one that came to mind is Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder – ” Ebony and Ivory.”

    DUET TO ME. I had hoped that when my husband put some sweat equity in to paint our starter house, that it would be the last time he’d be painting a house… BUT we’re going on our 10th year together and sadly he’s still painting… he did our 2nd home too and and now he’s repainting the bedroom. If only we were able to hire a painter but if not, the next best thing (besides hitting the lottery) would be to kick it up a notch with a power painter that we could both use. Favorite duet? “Falling Slowly” by Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova

    DUET TO ME

    Maybe this will convince my hubby we desperately need to paint our kitchen.. even though it’s a rental we’ll leave in 2 years. I just can’t take it anymore!! lol

    I can never think of answers to questions like this! Hrmm.. I’m going with my dog and my honey when they’re howling together.

    Duet to me! My fiance and I are buying a our first house and MUCH painting needs to be done. The person who staged the house chose lavender, pink, mustard yellow, and primary green for the walls. My favorite part is where she changed from one color to the next in the middle of a wall.

    My fav duet of late is “Run to You”–life is hard right now, but the song reminds me that it seems easier when I know I have my fiance to count on.

    Thanks for the contest!

    DUET TO ME

    As cheesy as this sounds, I love “A Whole New World” by Peabo Bryson & Regina Belle. LOL, I guess it reminds me of good times in childhood when anything seemed so possible.

    Duet To Me – I can’t help but hear “do it to me one more time, once is never enough for a love like this…”

    The best duet is “Precious Love” by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell. This was my brother and sister in laws first dance as they kissed as new husband and wife!

    DUET TO ME!

    It may not be my all time favorite… but I am tired and the Madonna/JT duet was the first thing that came to mind. I wish I could have been more original for this prize because it is SO perfect for me! Painting is my fave home project. It’s sort of theraputic and also provides instant gratification… aka: big impact, little money and effort!

    Keep up the great work, you two!

    This is rather embarrassing, but when I was much younger (back in the days), it had to be “A whole new world” by Peabo Bryson & Regina Belle. It must have been the Aladdin effect on me!

    DUET TO ME!

    I would have to say that my favorite duet is Endless Love by Diana Ross and Lionel Richie because my husband and his old college roommate made a hysterical youtube video to this song (my husband was Lionel and his (male) roommate was Diana) and to this day, I can’t help but laugh every time I hear that song. : )

    Oh my gosh, I need this tool.

    Favorite duet? Erm, I’m not good at favorites and I can never remember who sings what song. I’m gonna skip the bonus question.

    DUET TO ME!

    Best duet ever? Kenny Rodgers and Dolly Parton! Unless of course we’re talking Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn b/c it just doesn’t get much better than, “You’re the Reason Our Kids are Ugly”!

    How awesome would this sucker be??? I’ve got a whole house to paint and the hubby bails every time he gets wind of anything even resembling a project!
