***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
Literally- it does. Hear me out for a minute. A couple of weeks ago we posted about our new Bissell vacuum, which virtually swept us off our feet (and actually sucked stuff off our floors). Well, thanks to the magic of the Interweb, that post actually caught the eye of the kind folks over at Bissell and after a few emails back and forth… tah dah! We managed to sweet talk them into a YHL giveaway. So now one lucky reader gets the chance to win their very own Bissell Cleanview Helix Bagless Vacuum Cleaner to help them spruce up every nook and cranny of their casa. Nice, right?
We’re psyched that Bissell’s helping us share this HEPA-filterin’, 12-amp powerin’, multi-surface settin’, pet hair suckin’ and lightweight cleanin’ love with one of you. And if your house is home to a canine or a feline with a bit more fur than our bald-bellied Burger, this little bonus prize might come in handy too: they’re throwing in a Bissell’s Pet Hair Broom for our big winner as well.
Even if you don’t find yourself sweeping up much pet hair, the broom’s rubber bristles (which attract fur like a magnet) are retractable for your normal sweep jobs. So here’s how you can get your paws on this prize set which- thanks to the broom- technically doesn’t completely suck.
- PRIZE: A Bissell 82H1 Cleanview Helix Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner and Pet Hair Broom
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CLEAN ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about any of your spring cleaning rituals that are already underway in your house (or any that you might be diving into soon). Getting the garden ready? Washing all the windows? Taking us up on our closet cleaning party? Spill it.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, March 10th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: Home to the world’s best and second-best hockey teams (that’s Canada and the US, fyi)
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

CLEAN ME!
I’m moving right now, which has given me the opportunity to go through everything I own. I’ve gotten rid of a ton of stuff I didn’t even know I had.
Brandi Stallings says
CLEAN ME…already getting a jump on the spring cleaning. closets done and drawers done. waiting for the yard to dry so we can do that. :)
Renee says
CLEAN ME!!!
Our spring cleaning (and fall cleaning actually) rituals include going through our closet and taking out items we haven’t worn in a year and donating them. We did it this past weekend and our closet looks a lot less jammed!
Danielle H says
Clean ME!
I can’t wait to start spring cleaning. It’s sick how excited I get. It will all start this weekend, windows, closets, and garage are all on the schedule!
Chelsea says
CLEAN ME PLEASE!! Spring cleaning actually hits me a couple of times a year, and it hit me up a few weeks ago, so it was mid-winter cleaning! Every now and then I get the urge to purge.
Liz says
CLEAN ME!
Beth says
Does Random.org ever choose winners this close to the front? I doubt it. Here goes nuthin’. :-)
CLEAN ME! I’ve already started socking it to my garage and attic. HUGE garage sale in my near future. Unlike you, all my baby stuff is soon to be on its way out. Kinda sad, but there comes a time. Oh, and my garden is already planted. Yay for spring!

My fave Spring-cleaning ritual is to open all the windows in the house. Nothing feels better than a soft, clean breeze after being shut-in for the winter!
Ann says
CLEAN ME!
i’m cleaning out all of our closets and cabinets right now, and then i’ll move onto the blinds.
john – WAHOOWA! (uva alum)
cassie says
CLEAN ME! We are using the warm weather spell to get our windows cleaned up!
Jessica says
CLEAN ME! We’ve been decluttering the closets and will soon be landscaping our backyard once the snow finishes melting.
Amanda Park says
Clean me… I really don’t have any rituals. However, my better half says I am a cleaning addict and have “issues”. Which I really don’t he just doesn’t like to clean. I usually vacuum the floors and mop once a week. I have two dogs and my house is entirely tile and hardwood.
Lately I’ve discovered microfiber clothes and use them to clean everything. I have one for dusting and one for cleaning the bathrooms!
Lisa says
CLEAN ME! I love washing windows and wiping down the porch furniture on a warm winter day – makes me feel like spring is just around the corner.
Mary says
CLEAN ME!!
Spring cleaning starts NEXT weekend around my house. I am in desperate need of a new vacuum so I was stoked to see this giveaway! Thanks :)
Sarahgirl34 says
CLEAN ME!
I’m a nursing student, so I’ve started a paper purge for spring/end of the quarter. It’s so satisfying clearing out space in the filing cabinet and my binders! And everything is recycled, or shredded and then recycled. But emptying the shredder does leave a lot of dust and itty bitty paper pieces to clean up…a new vacuum would sure help a lot…
Meredith says
CLEAN ME
Started cleaning out closets this weekend- more spring cleaning to come!
Jen says
CLEAN ME!
Oh my goodness, I completely love spring cleaning season! Throwing open the windows to air out the stail winter air, turning on some tunes and spending a weekend scrubbing every nook and house cranny, gets me so super giddy with excitement! And I can finally find my way back out to the garage {because it’s not below zero freezing out there} to do my annual garage cleanup!
As always, much thanks YHL!
Susan says
CLEAN ME!!! CLEANING OUT THE FRIDGE!
Molly says
CLEAN ME
I encourage (read: force) my husband to go through his old clothes (read: Cosby sweaters) and make a donation pile. We love places like Arc or the Epilepsy Foundation who pick up your bags of donated goods right from your front porch!
Christina says
Clean me!
What perfect timing! Our vacuum is pretty close to death at the current moment.
My spring cleaning ritual starts the same way every year…rearranging the furniture in the bedrooms. We did our room yesterday, this coming weekend is our daughter’s, and then on to the guest (soon-to-be nursery)!
Adria says
“CLEAN ME!” Spring is almost here so getting ready to overhaul the backyard!
Kristen A. says
CLEAN ME!!
I’ve re-arranged my bedroom furniture, and did a massive overhaul cleaning. Next is going through my clothes and donating what I won’t wear any more. :)
Kristen says
CLEAN ME!!
We have started cleanign out the pantry this week!!
leslie says
clean me!
i only wish i had time for spring cleaning!
Dana says
CLEAN ME…please, please, please!
After my recent purchase of the crappiest refurb vacuum EVER, I would so love to win this!
We cleaned our house top to bottom this Saturday! Nice weather makes me want a clutter-free home.
amc says
CLEAN ME!
This weekend, I did a full oven/stove clean up. I set the dial to self-clean which effectively locks down the oven for 4 hours, stinks up the house, and incinerates any debris. I washed all of the burner grates on the gas stove. And then I scrubbed the grime from the hood. Feels good to have a clean stove!
Jon says
clean me!!
We don’t do much spring cleaning–it’s pretty much an all week sort of thing at our house. :) We’re messy.
Nicole says
CLEAN ME
We are constantly cleaning our baseboards, or as yall call them, “little shelves that collect dust”
Our spring cleaning started yesterday with deep clean and repaint of all of our baseboards and crown molding.

This has reminded me how much I need to vacuum—and not just in the spring!
Amanda says
CLEAN ME.
I clean out closets.
Kelly S says
CLEAN ME!
This past weekend my 5 year old and I cleaned up the play room. Vacuumed up all the dust bunnies, purged some toys that she no longer plays with and I also cleaned out 2 closets!!
Noelle says
CLEAN ME!!!
My windows, closets, attic…all need spring cleaning!! And my garden needs sprucing…way too many things too list! Thanks for this EXCELLENT give away youngsters!! :)
Ellen says
CLEAN ME… I’m cleaning out closets, organizing the attic, and looking for veggies to plant in my garden!
StephanieO says
CLEAN ME!
outdoor cleaning: love cleaning off the porch and getting everything ready for planting!
alyssa says
CLEAN ME!
cleaning the whole house, actually moving furniture, books etc while the windows are open to let in the fresh air!
Erin T says
CLEAN ME!
We’ve started prepping our screened porch (by far my favorite room in the house) for the warm weather. Can’t wait!
Bettina says
CLEAN ME!
I’m starting to clean out for the annual spring garage sale in our neighborhood. I am going though every drawer and closet trying to get rid of the clutter. Whatever doesn’t sell will go to Goodwill.
Carolyn says
CLEAN ME!
Meri says
CLEAN ME! Used you guys as inspiration, and pulled all of the stuff out of our closet and pantry. Organized what we decided to keep, and donated what we didn’t. This is a jumpstart for me, I usually purge around garage sale time (mid-summer). Thanks!
Tiffany B says
CLEAN ME!
We fertilized the yard and are about to get the garden ready. We have also started painting some furniture we bought at Goodwill this winter.
Becky says
CLEAN ME!
My husband and I are in the midst of a major spring cleaning since we are selling our condo. The best reward for our decluttering was that we sold our condo in one day. Now we just have to find someplace to move…
Sarah says
CLEAN ME!
I plan on cleaning out my closet (again!). I always seem to have stuff to get rid of!
Terr says
CLEAN ME! With a dog and a new baby on the way, would love to win this!!
Michelle says
CLEAN ME! I am desperate for the vacuum and the broom. Our pup is bare bellied but still sheds his little chocolate colored hairs all over the place. (My husband and I are also btoh well endowed with hair…so you can imagine the situation!)
Spring cleaning isn’t really needed around here, since we live in a smaller place and have to keep our stuff organized and clean most of the time. So it’s more of a year round deal. You mentioned cleaning windows though…which reminds me that I have a few of those around here.
Lindsay W. says
CLEAN ME!!!!
I love this giveaway! Our vac is about to kick the bucket and when it does, I’m am buying this one for sure….and a pet broom to boot – Amazing!
I am a window washing fein in the spring. Nothing stops me from getting out there and letting in more light by cleaning the winter grime off the windows. And I tend to organize and purge like crazy during the spring, and this one is no different. Feels like a fresh start!
Shannon says
Clean me!
We really don’t have specific spring cleaning rituals, maybe a new vacuum and pet hair broom (perfect to sweep up the hair from our big goofy black lab) will inspire us to create some!
gia says
CLEAN ME!
We just moved, so EVERYTHING needs to cleaned and organized at this point!
Megan C says
CLEAN ME!!!
Love you guys!
