***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!
We put our house on the market and got a good spring cleaning in before we did that. We’re buying a new house with more square footage and more carpet, so this would be great!
Nicole says
CLEAN ME!
Closets are on my list, right after our basement. Who knew we had so much stuff?

I desperately need the pet hair broom! I bought a 6 week old dog from a pet store thinking it was a pit bull…a few months later it didn’t look much like a pit bull. Come to find out it is a German Shepard!!! I really need that broom! :)
lol
My spring cleaning starts with the garage. I take out everything and get it all organized. It seems to get messy around Christmas and New Years.
Next, I flip my mattresses and clean under the beds…
Kimberly says
CLEAN ME!
Spring cleaning for us involves going through our closests and deciding which clothes we no longer wear. Then we donate them to someone who need thems!
The Waspy Redhead says
Clean Me! I need to get my car detailed. It’s been too long :)
Suzy says
“CLEAN ME” the snow is still on the ground here but it is warming up! I’m looking forward to clearing out our sunporch for some family meal times in the brightest room in the house!
Laura says
CLEAN ME!
Spring cleaning – non existent this year – we’re rennovation our new home and getting ready to move!!!
Hope says
CLEAN ME! This vacuum is actually on my wish list, and was even before you guys got one because it got great reviews online. My current vacuum cleaner is a waste of space!
I did my spring cleaning right after new year’s. I just got on a kick and wanted to start the year off right. I reorganized every single closet and cabinet in the house!
Rebecca says
CLEAN ME!
Our condo went on the market last week, so spring cleaning is an understatement at our place right now. Our condo has to stay perfectly put together at all times.
Jillian says
CLEAN ME!! We’ll be going through all of our clothes and donating anything we haven’t worn in all year.
Sara Jane says
CLEAN ME!
I NEED this vaccuum!! Mine is a college leftover and I’d be better off crawling around on the floor picking stuff up.
Kristi @ Life at the Chateau Whitman says
Clean me!
We have indeed done some spring cleaning, but there’s always more to do.
Kerry says
CLEAN ME!
This freebie is fab! My current vacuum doesn’t suck – which totally sucks!!
The sunshine in my neck of the woods over the past few days makes me want to head out and clean the yard. Lots of branches came down over the winter, and it’s looking messy! Plus, being able to get out and work in the yard makes it feel like spring is that much closer!
Bobbi B. says
CLEAN ME!
The big spring cleaning ritual I have underway in my house is cleaning the dust from all the blinds and ceiling fans in the house! With you puppy Chauncey continually running in and out to the backyard, it seems like we have more dust than usual this year. I would love to use a NEW VACUUM CLEANER for vacuuming my blinds. :)
Kelly says
Clean me some closets! I purged and organized them all. I love to be able to open the windows and let in clean, fresh air!
Katie K says
CLEAN ME!! I have already been organizing room by room but at this point I’m really looking forward to getting the carpets cleaned and the ducts blown out. Today I was actually able to open the back door for awhile to air out the house, that was exciting.
Jamie Lee says
CLEAN ME!
Emily says
Clean Me!
I haven’t started any spring cleaning yet because i’m 10 weeks pregnant and feeling nauseated most of the time. However, I’m excited to start working on our backyard when the weather gets a bit warmer here!
Jana says
CLEAN ME!
One thing I am trying to do is to eliminate our dog’s hair. So I bought “The Furminator,” a dog brush on steroids.
Rebecca says
CLEAN ME!
My spring cleaning usually involves a massive purge of items, sweeping out the closets, washing bed skirts and such.
pam says
CLEAN ME! we moved into our house at the end of last year and had a baby at the end of last year too, so, one of our rooms is still filled with boxes. this room is supposed to be the office/playroom. started tackling that room.
Monica K says
CLEAN ME!
I started this past weekend with my spring cleaning – giving all the hardwood floors a good cleaning. Next up for this weekend will be the windows. I have a dog & cat and the pet hair is starting to take over so this giveaway is sure to help! =)
Angela says
Clean me!
My first Spring Cleaning project will be to tackle the guest room closet- it needs some reorganizing and purging. After the rain stops, it will be time to clean the deck and have some BBQ’s!
Erica says
CLEAN ME!
I’m going to be a new mom in July so spring cleaning has just begun!
Glenna says
CLEAN ME!
Our storage room desperately needs a good purge. I plan on organizing it in the next month or so.
Amanda West says
Clean me! This is what my house says to me every single day and my vacuum has about bit the dust, ha!
Jen Gould says
CLEAN ME! I’m ready to clean anything, but am most excited about getting to yard and flower beds (after the snow finally melts)!
Cathryn says
CLEAN ME!
We have “dust inside the baseboard heaters” on our Spring Cleaning list and this prize would really make the job easier! Next cleaning project for us: window cleaning with newspaper and vinegar.
Franciely says

Laura says
CLEAN ME! Spring cleaning – windows washed, closets cleaned out, flower beds purged of weeds…
Meredith says
CLEAN ME!!
I try to clean throughout the year. The thought of “spring cleaning” is too daunting. : )
Kelly M says
Clean Me!
My spring cleaning ritual already underway is the closets =( It’s amazing how much crap accumulates in just one year!
Sandy says
CLEAN ME!!!
I have two Samoyeds who are beginning to blow their winter coats now. I can literally fill two big garbage bags with all the fur when I work out the undercoat. They destroy a vacuum cleaner every two years, on average. Please give me this one to replace the one that’s almost ready to go!
(Oh, and spring cleaning? I get on a magazine disposal kick, usually, as the first sign. Next come the closets.)
krys72599 says
CLEAN ME! This is NOT a 2nd entry – please delete my 1st one! I hit send before I told you my cleaning plans!!
#1 – I’m donating winter clothes BEFORE I put them away for the spring – that way I don’t have to store them over the winter! If I didn’t wear them at least once since last October, OUT THEY GO! And I’m doing the SAME thing with the spring clothes I take out – if I didn’t wear it last year, the odds are I won’t wear it thise year – OUT IT GOES!
#2 – I REALLY need a new vacuum cleaner – I have 4, and not one of them is younger than 24 years old!!! They have virtually no sucking power left!
PLEASE PICK ME!!!
Hosanna says
CLEAN ME!
We’re getting ready clean out our garage! It becomes such a mess during the winter!
Caitlin says
Clean me! My husband and I got married two months ago and recently got a puppy who is not yet housetrained! So we are constantly cleaning and putting things away.
Stephanie says
“CLEAN ME!”
We’re planning a deep deck scrubbing before my in-laws come out at the end of the month. And maybe, if we’re feeling really ambitious, we’ll tackle our office closet (eek!).
Sarah says
CLEAN ME!
I love to wash the windows and clean out those cobwebs from the corners.
AKB says
Clean me! Spring cleaning involves cleaning EVERYTHING in our house! And it’s this weekend…dun,dun, daaaaa!!!
claudia says
CLEAN ME!
Oh my goodness where do we start. The husband and I have many, many “to do” lists. We’re just lucky if we can vacuum all the dog hair in the house and keep it “presentable,” in case anyone stops by.
SUSAN says
CLEAN ME!!! That is what my house has been begging for. I have already cleaned out two bathrooms and I have started on the master bedroom. I am purging my house–room by room! No more clutter, no siree! I definitely need these products. Especially on the cat hair!
Stacey says
CLEAN ME. Cleaning out the closet. It involves donating the clothes I didn’t wear from the winter and reviewing the spring stuff to see if what I thought would be a timeless fashion choice last spring is still within the realm of good taste!
ab says
clean me!
Nicole Garcia says
CLEAN ME!
We spent the weekend mopping our tile (next up – hire a pro to clean the grout) and the hubby washed down our back yard patio and the brick walls.
amy says
clean me!
Jamie Lee says
CLEAN ME!
We almost bought this vacuum right after you posted it, but didn’t have the money in our tight budget. We’ve already started on some major spring cleaning, but to be honest, I’ve never really had a routine before. I think I finally got tired of searching for what I’m looking for and had the urge to purge. It just so happens to be spring.
bowles22 says
CLEAN ME PLEASE!
A. Parks says
Clean me!!
Meghyn says
CLEAN ME!
I have a small kitchen and bathroom, my ritual for cleaning them is somewhat methodical. Start with sweeping, go through with a Swiffer wet jet, and then on my hands and knees I use a wet rag soaked in bleach (with gloves on, of course!) and baking soda to get the cleanest floors.
That’s how I beat the grime! :) Love the blog, keep up the great work.
Shauna says
CLEAN ME
We finally had a nice weekend so my garden is in tiptop shape now. It is so nice to get rid of the dead stuff from last fall to make way for the greenery that is already peeking through!
