Fab Freebie: Market Fresh

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

This week’s giveaway comes to from two awesome sources of inspiration who are dishing out quite a worldly and wonderful prize for one lucky reader. First up is Fresh Home, one of the few magazines to buck the vanishing shelter pub trend and actually make its debut last year (you may have noticed them in our monthly sponsor shout out last week). This fresh quarterly mag focuses on home improvement and decor ideas for anyone with a finite budget who still wants to make their home beautiful. We can definitely relate. And in a genius turn of events, Fresh Home has teamed up with one of their (and our) favorite sources, Cost Plus World Market, to score an $100 gift card for one lucky YHL reader!

Fresh Home Mag 1

The great thing about Cost Plus World Market is that they’ve got such a wide range of offerings that you could practically do a whole room from there without it looking matchy-matchy in the least. They have everything from couches, coffee tables, and rugs to pillows, lighting, and accessories. Heck, we even purchased the seat cushions for our new office makeover and the rug in our master bedroom there.

Fresh Home World Market

So here’s the full monty on how you can enter this week:

  • PRIZE: $100 gift card to Cost Plus World Market courtesy of CPWM and Fresh Home Magazine.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M FRESH” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … since the summer heat means feeling fresh is a rarity these days, why not tell us what you do to freshen up. A nice cool shower to start your day? A tall glass of lemonade when you come in from the heat? Or maybe a quick deodorant swipe or some mouthwash between meetings?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, August 18th 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. Good luck…

    I’m Fresh! I get out of Texas where it is hot and sticky and head for my parents’ house in California where the air is so much cooler.

    I’M FRESH!!! Someone once told me that cold water on your pulse points helps you to feel cooler and it works! Try running cold water over the inside of your wrists for a few minutes…works wonders, especially when you work in an old building with unreliable A/C!

    I’M FRESH!

    Thoughts of my bedroom (the one room in my house that has AC) keep me from melting in the heat. :)

    I’m Fresh! This summer has been difficult to feel fresh, as it’s one of the hottest and I’m 6 months pregnant, but putting ice in nearly everything I drink has been keeping the heat beasties at bay.

    I’m fresh! I took a trip to Denver this weekend, which was an amazingly cool and refreshing break from the heat and humidity of New Orleans.

    I’m fresh!

    To cool off, I usually drink ice water with lemon and sit right under the ac vent while reading a book.

    I’m fresh! I would say ice cold lemonade on the deck of a swimming pool would be nice right now. Lots of cold for our neck of the woods would be much appreciated!

    I keep a packet of “Say Yes to Cucumbers” face wipes in my purse and one in my glove box and when I feel gross I clean my face (and my armpits… but let’s not talk about that…) and the back of my neck. The wet wipes are delightfully cool no matter how hot it is out and I feel like a new woman, even when I still have a hundred other errands to run in the heat… I’M FRESH! :)

    I’m Fresh! ….This summer has been brutal, but I find that a cold shower right after work helps me get my second wind for the evening.

    “I’M FRESH!”

    Can’t really beat iced green tea-lemonade from starbucks! Though stepping out into the a/c from a cool shower is quite refreshing.

    I’m Fresh… I like to take a midday shower (during naptime) on days where I’ve been sweating outside all morning with the kids.

    “I’m Fresh!”

    For me, nothing’s better than laying on the floor in front of a box fan with a glass of sweet tea and a sprig of mint. I know it sounds odd, but it takes me straight back to summer days spent with my grandparents!

    I’m Fresh! I love watermelon, strawberry, and blueberry salad picked fresh and a nice cool shower with Bath & Body Works ‘Forever Sunshine’ body wash!
