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!

This is so funny becuase last night I was actually standing at my kitchen sink and I looked across into our neighbors kitchen and he was standing at the fridge scratching his butt in his underwear, completely unaware that I could see him! I need to cover that up!
Michelle says
BLIND ME!
We need some coverings for our ALMOST remodeled den!!
DemMom says
BLIND ME! In our old house we could see the (not very nice) neighbor behind us having breakfast in his underwear. Yuck.
Derrick says
BLIND ME!
Pups sunk his teeth into a set in our kitchen (not once, but twice!). Time for a change.
Rachel says
BLIND ME!!!!
I’ve got huge old windows in a house in the Fan and I’ve been needing to order a ton of blinds for FOREVER. Did I mention the windows are HUGE???

My husband was leaving a friend’s apartment a few nights ago. He happened to glance up. Three floors up, he spotted a man standing in the window completely naked and chugging milk out of the carton.

I cannot stand looking out and seeing another house, luckily that doesn’t happen in our current home. But I would love to add some texture to our dining room with blinds!
Emily says
BLIND ME!
Good bye neighbors looking into our bedroom!! I would love this!
Jennifer Hamilton says
Blind Me!! We desperately need blinds to cover our back door that is attached to our kitchen. We have gotten to the point where we don’t even care anymore and we just come downstairs dressed however. I’m sure we give a nice little show to all the neighbors at night. Blinds would obviously be awesome for us!
Kelly says
Blind Me! I would love to replace our living room bay window blinds: plastic with gold edges (yuck!)
Kathryn J says
BLIND ME!
Our living room window!
Melissa T says
BLIND ME!!!! I WANT this! Our cats have torn our blinds to pieces trying to peek their heads through to look out side. We live on a highly walked street right by the side walk and I am hope no one last peeked at us through the gapes in the blinds!
darchelle says
Blind me! We are in the process of purchasing a home and these would be great!
Karen says
Blind Me! :)
Just moved into our new home last week and our living room and laundry room are in dire need of window coverings!
Anne with an e says
blind me! the view i want to cover is actually my first-thing-in-the-morning view of our icky old mini blinds….
Heather says
BLIND ME!
My new house has these horrible beige plastic blinds, circa 1980. They need an upgrade!!
Jamie Lenee says
Blind Me!! I need blinds for our extra bedroom – floor to ceiling windows on the 4th floor of our condo building…the houses behind our building can definitely see in.

I lived in ireland for a year and our beautiful apartment building looked right into the ripped out guts of a graffiti covered shell of a building. Over that we could see the river though, so it was kind of nice, but could have been sooo much better!
Stephanie says
Our new house has floor to celing windows in the living room with nothing to cover them! Would love to add some privacy.
Audrey says
BLIND ME!
My neighbor is a cross dresser. He walks around in a swimsuit and stuffs the chest area! To make it even more disturbing, he has three kids! I wish I were making this up!
Anne says
Blind me!
Needing blinds for our nursery to block out the neighbor’s peeling paint!
Breanna says
BLIND ME!
We just got all moved into our new casa and the previous owners have those plastic vertical blinds everywhere. It’s horrible and we can’t wait to replace them.
Megan says
BLIND ME! I don’t really have a view to cover up but we just put in an offer on our first home and I have been dying to buy natural bamboo shades. I am in love with how they look and haven’t been able to do it as a renter.
Jamie J. says
BLIND ME! This would be a big help as we just moved into our first home about 6 months ago and there are many windows to dress!
Jessica Carney says
BLIND ME!
We have these beautiful, incredibly old windows in the front of our house that sorely need window treatments!
Sarah Boehle says
BLIND ME!
anna says
BLIND ME!
The view that needs to be covered up in my mother’s case is actually her current vertical blinds themselves! She’s been wanting to get new window treatments for years now, and I think if I won this card and could give it to her, she might acutally do it!
Julia A says
Blind Me!
Our living room has 8 windows in it – 8! While we have amazing views of the tall trees surrounding out house, we have a corner lot so every neighbor walking down the block can see right into our house. We just purchased the house (moved in last week) and the old owners left us their ill-fitting and not appealing window coverings. I’d love to get new window coverings to give us a bit of privacy!
Christie DeSilva says
BLIND ME! Hmmm…I think I would cover my dining room window for some privacy. It’s way too big for a store bought blind. :(
Deana says
BLIND ME!
Although we have a fenced-in backyard, we can see our neighbor’s bright green shed from the bedrooms. In the afternoon, the sun reflects off the shed and casts a green light (not pretty) into the bedrooms!
Erin S says
BLIND ME!
Our bambina-to-be’s crib gets bathed in the “glow” from the streetlights right outside her window. =/ We’d love to have a more lightproof window treatment!
StefK says
Blind Me!
My master bedroom cheapy blinds have seen beeeeetter days!! I’d love something that makes staring out the window at our backyard lemon tree that much more enjoyable :)
Elizabeth says
BLIND ME! We have a huge picture window that is in need of some cellular shades. This would be perfect!
Ana says
BLIND ME!
For the most part my neighborhood is really nice. HOWEVER, there is a house behind mine that I call the hoarder house. The hoarder lady moved away and one day a few workers pulled everything out and filled two trailers full of junk (and the house was only like 700 square feet). No one even looked through anything, they just tossed it out the windows. Now some of the windows are boarded up and the front door is disintegrating. It’s not a good sight.
Emily says
Blind Me!
Because the houses in our neighborhood are crammed together, we’ve got blinds everywhere. The worst would be the windows that open to show…a cement block wall. So nice.
Christine says
“Blind Me!”
I could really use some premium window shades for the master suite. Sadly, the neighbor’s entrance door gazes into my humble abode via the master bedroom.
Betsy says
BLIND ME!
I’d love to replace the blinds in my middle 2 boys room. They’re pretty ratty and new ones would go a long way towards improving the neighbor’s view of our house ;)
Sarah says
BLIND ME!
We have so many windows to cover in our new house, I’m not even sure where i’d start!
Kami says
We’ve got a window right over our tub. If there were ever a case for window coverings, this is it :)
Holly says
BLIND ME!
Can I order a custom blind to cover my mid-section?
Lisa says
Blind me…
We got a new (we really an older home) with no blinds. it would be awesome to be able to put some up in our main living spaces.
Shannon says
BLIND ME!
My neighbor can see directly in my master bedroom from his kitchen! Totally need some window coverage from Next Day Blinds!
Callina says
Blind Me! I once heard a comedian (can’t remember who) do a bit about the huge picture windows that often are big selling points in ranch homes like my own, but once you move in you realize you need to cover them up as fast as possible so you don’t have to look at your neighbor’s ugly yard, which is precisely the situation that I’m in. So yep, I’d love a new set of blinds for my huge living room picture window.
Alissa says
BLIND ME!
We had our very own “ugly naked guy” neighbor. Lights on, blinds up, no shame. He would come home from work, strip, and spend the rest of the night in the open air. Our apartment looked right into his… and his wife always walked around with clothes as if nothing was amiss.
megan says
BLIND ME
I wish I could cover up our front window. The whole neighborhood looks in on us like we are in a fish bowl :)

My master bedroom currently has burgandy honeycomb shades from the previous owner. They are great for blocking out light, but I hate the color! (they even had burgandy carpet…thankfully that was changed out before we bought it!)
If you buy blinds, you should definitely go neutral!!
I would buy natural grass or bamboo shades instead.
Katie says
Blind Me!
I’m so glad that our house came with full wooden blinds when we bought it, except now they all need drapes!
Thanks for the giveaway.
