***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 having a baby in about 4 1/2 weeks so Spring cleaning this year is a MUST! This past weekend, my wonderful MIL came over to help me clean (hubby was out of town)! She got on her hands and knees to reach all the places my big belly won’t allow. Our nest is much more prepared for our little one now…I just wish the MIL could come over and clean more often! Haha. :)

I hope my spring cleaning this year includes removing all of my dishes/glasses from my kitchen cabinets and wiping down the cabinet insides… this always gets neglected.

Spring cleaning is unpacking for us, we just moved in.

Cheryl P. says
CLEAN ME!!!!
As the days grow longer, it’s time in our house to clean the windows!!!! I do the inside, and we hire someone to clean the outside.
And Spring means garage sale…so it’s also time to head down to the basement to weed out any outgrown clothes, unused small appliances, etc.
Jessica says

We reeeeally need a good vacuum. Red carpet is a magnet for every little white fuzzy imaginable.

Jessica Riley says
Clean me please!!!
My husband and I started to spring clean with our wardrobes everything we haven’t touched in a while must be donated. Then this week we are starting on our garden, were very excited. We’d be more excited if we won this amazing vacuum though, since ours just gave it’s last suck a couple of weeks ago! :(
Kate says

We were finally able to open this windows this weekend due to 50 degree weather. That’s always the first spring cleaning step – airing out the house.

Spring cleaning that will be starting soon, is working on finishing our house. We bought a foreclosure and have much to finish doing to make it ours.

I love to open the windows and let fresh breezes flow through the house. We may no longer notice what our house smells like but “fresh” is always good.
Valerie says
CLEAN ME!
Definitely the c-l-o-s-e-t-s!!!
Lauren says
CLEAN ME!
Spring cleaning means organizing clutter! I did take the closet challenge this past weekend and got my bedroom closet under control. I still need to go through my clothes so I can make a GoodWill run.
Kristin Burns says
CLEAN ME!
Spring makes we want to redecorate. If I could afford it, I’d redo the whole house with a fresh new look every spring. Since that’s not in the cards, I love to use spring as an excuse to buy (or my New Year’s resolution – MAKE) a couple of new throw pillows and rugs. A few splashes of color give the room a fresh new feel on the cheap.
Claudie says
Clean Me!
So far, we’ve been moving all of the furniture away from the wall to make sure everything is clean back there!

CLEAN ME…I have a white couch and a very messy english bulldog, so I’m going to get the couch and rug in the living room cleaned :) I think it will be a good thing to do once or twice a year.
Jen says
CLEAN ME! And yes, we will be digging up our yard for a small herb and tomato garden!
Abbie says
CLEAN ME!
My favorite spring cleaning ritual is gathering all the “things” that we haven’t used over the last 12 months and have a big yard sale. It’s always nice to make some extra cash for buying new plants for the yard in the Spring.

My neighbor borrowed our vaccuum and moved away with it. We are in desperate need of a replacement due to puppy fur accumulation.
We are replacing floors DIY style and are staging two houses for sale by Dec 31st. Looking for affordable upgrades that will return our investment…young house love style.

Just peeling off the plastic and opening the windows is so glorious! My favorite Spring cleaning bit is cleaning out my car and getting all the salt and sludge out of the carpets and deep down cleaning. It’s like having a new car!
Alison says

Trisha Hardy says

We need this vacume more than life itself!
I’ll start our spring cleaning in April once it really starts to warm up. Scrub everything down (baseboards, floors, walls, cabinets, windows). I’ll do downstairs one day, and upstairs the next. Get out my spring decor. Purge the garage and basement. Can’t wait to open those windows!!
Emily says

This year we will be steam cleaning our couch and our kitchen area rug – woo hoo!

I guess if I have to spring clean, I should probably wash my windows!
Michelle Slonaker says
CLEAN ME
I actually just started yesterday! Filled a big bag of clothes to take away! And rearranged my bookshelf to add in some new things as well as get rid of some old. Fun stuff!
Wesley Little says
CLEAN ME! We have started free-cycling on craigs list all the stuff we want to get rid of but can’t handle the pain of moving ourselves – ie a 50 lb. glass topped coffee table. Feels great, plus, it reminded me that there’s a lot of cool stuff you can get for free and re-furbish!
cassidi says
CLEAN ME!!!
My closet is the first mission for me on the spring cleaning list…. starting with my shoes! Its so hard to part with shoes : (

Once it warms up a little more I’ll be out washing windows. We just moved here at the very end of the summer last year and I didn’t have a chance to clean them and they need it – BAD!

We just did some major spring cleaning yesterday, including adding some Ikea shelves braced with EKBY ROBERT brackets into the kitchen to get clutter (cookbooks, radio) off the counter.
With our two cats, we could definitely use these items!
