Sure, we’d all love to gaze out of our home’s windows at some breathtakingly beautiful vista. But in reality, some windows are portals to the back of the neighbor’s fence, an unwelcome glare, or even the view of a man walking around in his tighty-whities all night because he doesn’t realize his curtains are sheer (true story from my New York City days – yup, just like the naked guy from Friends). All the more reason to appreciate window coverings, like these beauties from Next Day Blinds:
This week Next Day Blinds is shucking out $200 to one lucky lad or lady to spend towards any custom-made, premium-quality, ready-the-next-day blinds, shades, sheers, rollers, romans or even shutters. And they’ve got enough styles to make your head spin (which you can browse right here).
Here are the giveaway deets:
- PRIZE: $200 towards any Next Day Blinds order
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “BLIND ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us about a view you wish you could cover (or are glad that you’ve already covered). Maybe the neighbors can look right into your bathroom (or vice versa)? Or you once stayed in a hotel room with a not so nice view?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 10th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States
- 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 Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
******************************
And our one lucky winner (as selected by random.org) is… Hien (who’s looking to cover up some sun-drenched kitchen windows). Congrats!

BLIND ME! We just moved into our new home. We need blinds everywhere.
Laura says
BLIND ME!!!
The contractor’s clearly weren’t thinking privacy when they built my house: they built the master bathroom windows facing not only the driveway, but my neighbors house as well (I can wave to my neighbor getting the newspaper at the end of HIS driveway while brushing my teeth!).
jody says
BLIND ME! Our current curtains are a strange shade of lavender and an awful fabric. I’d love to have something fun to cover the lovely view of my neighbor’s house.
Erin says
BLIND ME!
I hated seeing every person walk by on the sidewalk that was 5 feet from our living room window!
harmony says
BLIND ME!
This is great timing–I’m buying shades for our windows very soon! And I can’t wait to block the view to the (very close) side of our neighbors house ;-)
Julie Zoller says
BLIND ME!!!
Two months ago we moved into our new home, we have remodeled it and now working on the finishing touches…I am in the process of planning my window coverings…How I would love to win this…..How cool would that be….very cool!!!! julie zoller

BLIND ME
We recently painted the bedroom, and tore down and removed all the old bent up metal blinds, and have yet to replace them (taking a page from your book and going with bamboo romans) because the windows in the alcove are all weird shapes that you can’t buy from Home Depot. I’d love to block the morning sun on the weekends, and the neighbors view in.
Sarah Kimball says
BLIND ME!
I am due with my first baby in the spring and the view that I want covered will be the sunshine when I am trying to take advantage of a sleeping baby!
Krystal says
BLIND ME!
On a vacation long ago, I remember my cousin and brother complaining for hours about my aunt’s super uber cheapness when they realized our room had no TV….then they looked out the window and discovered two women in the hotel next door who didn’t close the blinds and they were undressing and one thing lead to another….they didn’t complain about the lack of TV the rest of the night.
Jamie says
Blind Me!
We live in an apartment…it would be so nice to put up some blinds that we like while we are here…and take them with us when we leave!
Helen says
BLIND ME!
I just bought a new house and need blinds for almost every room. I’d especially like to replace the yucky old vertical blinds in my family room.
Linsay says
BLIND ME in the kitchen! We have a big window that lets in so much light (right at dinner-cooking-time) that we are seriously blinded!
Laurie says
BLIND ME!! We moved into a new home and I need to replace most of the blinds!
Laura Godwin says
BLIND ME! I’d really like to cover the view of our neighbors right across the street from us… when it’s warm out, they keep one of those “half a man without arms” in their driveway and occasionally get in a work out of boxing with it… beyond strange to see…
Emily W. says
Blind me!
Knowing I’ll only be in my current apartment for a total of 11 months (5 left to go), I never bothered to hang up curtains. Yes, I’m lazy, and hate patching the walls.
Priscilla K. says
BLIND ME! I’d love to get some beautiful window coverings to block the street lights that glare through both my windows.
Gretchen says
BLIND ME!
I’d love to cover the windows in the new bedroom we are decorating with some black out shades.
Kim says
“BLIND ME!”
Elizabeth Deems says
BLIND ME!
We want some privacy in the living/dining/kitchen area, but have yet to find something we love. Hopefully now we will!
EKW says
BLIND ME!
We are moving into our first place and don’t have blinds for any of the windows yet – we’d be the ones on show!
Jen Hamilton says
BLIND ME! (or, really, blind them!)
This summer I did some much needed hard pruning of the shrubbery along one side of my house. The side that has my bedroom and backs up to a strip of retail shops…and their dumpsters. It’s really not as much fun as you might think to have a complete stranger staring at you when ever you’re in your room. Creepy, really. That’s what I’d like to block.
nina says
BLIND ME
My back door is in a bedroom (and is the only ‘window’ in the room) and is a sliding glass door with old vertical blinds (aka ugly) that opens to a cramped fenced in patio with bikes, trash cans and ac unit!! BIG UGLY
I really need this one, just afraid $200 won’t come close to covering half of a panel track!
Milady Griffin says
BLIND ME! I’d give them to my best friend – she’s renovating her new house!
Ben Godwin says
BLIND ME! Our bedroom window looks directly into our neighbor’s bedroom window, and the houses are close together, so that would be great to have covered!
Micki says
BLIND ME!
The home I bought had some of the blinds redone and some of them were old gross ones. I would love to replace them with pretty new ones!
gina. says
BLIND ME
There is a useless exterior door upstairs in the back of our house. When our bedroom door is open, the neighbor behind could easily watch us sleeping! I bought some of that frost contact paper but haven’t had time to put it on that door yet. I have however used it for the down stairs bathroom! It worked perfectly!!!
Thanks for the idea!
Rose says
BLIND ME! I have wanted to replace the cheap blinds in our bedroom for three years now. Our cat has even chewed on them!
Andrea D. says
BLIND ME! Our house doesn’t have too many bad views, but the bathroom does have a window into another room (the sunroom that used to be the deck, and therefore outside)
Skooks says
Oh pick me please!! I mean, blind me! I’ve got a huge kitchen window which is great for letting in the light as well as making for ZERO privacy from our extremely close neighbors. I would love to get some long bamboo blinds to hide up under the valence during the day . . . or maybe some shutters . . . either way. I just need a little privacy up in here!
michele says
BLIND ME
I need to replace the blinds in my living room. All three are broken and I don’t like my neighbors being able to peek in at night.
Kristine in WA says
BLIND ME!
I would love a roman shade on my kitchen window so that I could have privacy for an early morning run to the kitchen to flip on the coffee maker.
ashley d says
BLIND ME!
I have half the house “blinded” in bamboo…I just need the rest.
Ashley says
BLIND ME!
I’d sure my neighbor wouldnt mind if he didnt have to see my every move in my kitchen;)!
Carrie @ Laugh Love Eat Ice Cream says
Blind me!
Barb says
BLIND ME!
The views out of the front window are of a city park. The back of a chevy dealership. I have acceptable blinds on all my windows. My mom is the one who needs new blinds for her bay window. She told me a while back she wants some roman shades. I would love to surprise her.
Monica says
BLIND ME!
I live in the city and so every window needs treatment!
allison says
BLIND ME!
White blinds, booorrriiing!
alex says
BLIND ME! my front door!!! it’s a great glass door that has a nice view – but at night i find myself wishing it wasn’t so transparent!!! a nice woven wood would look nice :)
Lauren says
BLIND ME! Our kitchen window looks directly into the neighbors’ bedroom. There’s no easy way to not look when you’re doing dishes. Awkward!
Sarah says
BLIND ME!!
I would love to cover a window that looks over to our neighbors house. Everytime I walk from my bedroom to our bathroom I pass that window and I think their looking at me everytime!
Laura in LA says
Blind me! This would be perfect for me! I desperately need to replace the less than stellar blinds that came with my house.
Hannah says
BLIND ME!!
Don’t have anything that I really need to cover up, BUT my husband and I are getting new windows installed this week and we desperately need new blinds to cover our shiny new windows! :)
heather h says
BLIND ME!
my current bedroom-cum-office stares directly at a ladder mounted on a fence and my neighbor’s ice machine. less than inspiring, to say the least!
Traci D says
BLIND ME!
I would love to hide myself! We have a huge window in the front of our house and our current shades don’t totally hide us when the lights are on at night. Would love to put an end to that!
Meg welch says
BLIND ME!
I would hide my neighbors yucky fence!!
Chelsea says
I could really use a $2000 gift card! We have several windows that need to be covered and we can’t seem to justify spending the money on blinds right now.
jeannie maxwell says
Blind me! My neighbors can see into my dining room’s bay window. We need some privacy!
Lauren H says
BLIND ME!
We have a bedroom that gets way too much sun light, which makes that room hot in the summer and wakes you up really early in the morning. Our current shades are extremely cheap and don’t block much light, so custome blinds would be awesome!
Christine says
BLIND ME! We are renovating our house…not so much room by room. More like, what we can afford step by step. The only rooms that still need window coverings are the guest room/future baby room (at some point) and the office/future new guest room. The office window leads to our unsightly trash area…ick!
Brooke says
BLIND ME
My parents house needs shutters on every window! They live on a wildlife break so they leave all the windows uncovered to let in natures views. However, there are occasional hikers that can see right into the bathrooms! It would be great to fix it for them!!
