Fab Freebie: Let’s Be Honest

*** This giveaway is closed – see who won below!***

The randomly-selected-and-very-lucky lady in this week’s giveaways is… BeccaK (who wishes “I could trust the lube & oil folks when I go for an oil change – is a radiator flush REALLY necessary?”) I’m with ya on that one Becca. Congrats!

As much as we love a good looking home, we also like ours to be as good for the Bean and the Burger as possible. So this week we’re dishing out $500 worth of products from The Honest Company to keep your casa clean and green. You may know this family-friendly company thanks of their familiar-faced co-founder, the lovely Jessica Alba. And when you check out their online shop – which spans baby & body care to cleaning products – you’ll see words like organic, non-toxic, reusable, and plant-based peppered throughout… and they also donate time, money, and product to charity. So this week’s winner can go to town on their site with a $500 credit (might we suggest treating yourself to a year’s worth of their family bundle subscription?).

Honest Co Giveaway

  • PRIZE: $500 of product from The Honest Company
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’LL BE HONEST!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … something you wish people had to be honest about answering (think Jim Carrey in Liar Liar). Do you wish people couldn’t sugarcoat the answer to “does this make me look fat?” Do you wish repairmen (or women) had to give you a straight answer about when they’ll actually show up? Do you wish you could finally get your parents to fess up to who their favorite child is?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Aug 15th 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…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of The Honest Company.

    I wish repair people (cars, appliances, etc.) would be honest about what work needs to be done

    I ate way to many cookies today, they were vegan but still way too many for a person to eat at one sitting :)

    I just wish everyone was more honest; even those ‘little white lies’ can really pile up.

    I wish people would be more upfront about when I have something stuck in my teeth! It’s only embarrassing for half a second, then you’re past it!

    I wish that I could always trust that dentists are drilling only what REALLY needs to be drilled and filled!

    I’LL BE HONEST! I wish my hairdresser would just tell me my ideal cut & color, no matter how drastically different it is from my current look. I need to go on one of those makeover shows!

    I wish corporations had to tell the truth about their motives (moving jobs overseas, firing people for illegal reasons, raising prices)

    I wish card mechanics would be more honest and not tell you things need to be fixed when they don’t need to be. Just do what is right and only fix what is broken and do it honestly.

    I’LL BE HONEST….

    I don’t think people should be so brutally honest! All this “honesty” about personal opinions via social media is chalking up to be pretty nasty. A balance of kindness and honesty… that sounds about right ;o)

    I wish employers were more honest about what exactly they’re looking for in an employee, like what are the dealbreakers!!!

    “I’LL BE HONEST!” And I am pregnant and I wish people would fess up if an outfit fits this new body or not. I feel like I have lost my vision!

    I’ll be honest. I wish people in general would be more honest about following through with what they say they’ll do.

    I’ll be honest

    When I do something to offend someone, I wish that person would just tell me instead of acting all cold and distant and I have no idea why. Dislike drama!

    I’ll be honest! We’re having a baby in December and want to further green our home!

    I wish people would honestly answer, “How are you?” We’d take better care of each other if we weren’t sugar-coating all the time!

    I’ll be honest!! I think white lies benefit us more than we know… But I do wish politicians and service people would be honest!

    I like the politician thing, but since that wasn’t my original thought, here goes- Daycare/babysitters/family : I know my 3 year old is a really good kid, but I wish if he were to act up while you were watching him, you’d let me know, rather than always saying “He was perfect – we had no problems.”

    I live with the kid – he still has the occasional tantrum – he’s not perfect.

    I’LL BE HONEST! and I think I am actually glad that people aren’t brutally honest all the time. Sometimes sugar coating isn’t such a bad thing :)

    I’ll be honest! Like many others, I wish that politicians would be honest and not just tell us what they think we want to hear!

    I’m totally on board with what Carrie said above: “I wish people would say what they mean outright, instead of tip-toeing around it with a passive-aggressive comment that needs deciphering!”

    I’LL BE HONEST! I wish more business professionals were honest instead of trying to make their clients ‘happy’!

    I wish people in general were more honest – with themselves, with each other. I’m a huge fan of getting it out in the open instead of pretending things never happened, aka, living in denial.

    I’d like for there to be honestly in all things. Simple request, right?! Even when it’s painful, the honest truth is best.

    …that I am working really hard to use green cleaners whenever possible in our new (and first) home, but wish they weren’t so pricey!
