***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!

I just cleaned my entire apartment last week!
Katie says
CLEAN ME!! With my shedding dog, vacuuming and sweeping almost daily is a must. But other then that I have to open the windows at least once a week to get good fresh air throughout the house!
StefanieK says
Oh, please please CLEAN ME. With two very furry cats, and one sleek, but still hair-covered puppy, and the changing of the seasons, we are in desperate need of a hair-sucking solution!! Thanks for the giveaway opp :)
SLee says
CLEAN ME.
Went through all the files in our home office to prepare for 2010 that’s sure to be full with transactions. Also went through our closets to put away the heavy winter stuff, bring out the lighter spring/summer stuff, and donate all the rest that I haven’t touched in the past season.
Anita says
Clean me!
I’ve started cleaning windows.. at least the insides. My poor kitties have been dying to get out and scare the birds (which we never let them do!) but their excitement has meant many pressed noses to the glass. Our windows are a mess inside and out!
Jenn says
Clean me! =)
Our spring cleaning involves clearing the dead leaves and plants out of the backyard, checking all the smoke/CO2 detectors, and sweeping out the garage!
nue says

Lindsay says
CLEAN ME!!!

Spring cleaning means moving all the furniture and washing under it, changing to spring sheets, storing the boots/ winter clothes and washing windows… our vaccuum just bit the dust – and not in a good way! We are in need of a new way to manage the fluff from two very furry cats.
