***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!

My wife hates to sweep and this would make my life sooo much easier. I could maybe get my chores done in half the time :)
Jessie Stanley says
CLEAN ME!!
Every spring, I thoroughly wash all of my fans, windows, window blinds, and baseboards. I also empty my china cabinet to dust everything in it, and then I polish the few pieces of silver we have. I also pull out the stove and fridge and vacuum and wash behind and underneath them.
Christy H says
CLEAN ME!!!
I have a binder outlining things to do Yearly, seasonally (In Mn thats only 2 times a year Summer and Winter hehe) and the weekly chores. My spring chores consist mostly of emptying every cabinet, storage, closet to clean then re-organize. I kinda secretly love doing it!
Jennifer says
CLEAN ME!!!
Our Spring Cleaning ritual is getting rid of any and all non-essential paper items in our house. We shred em’ then recycle!

Spring means cleaning out the garden shed, weeding the yard, and planting all our yummy vegtables for the summer! The doggie messes (hair, chew toys, and muddy prints from winter/spring rain) are almost year round!
Lauren E. says
CLEAN ME!
I had big plans for Spring Cleaning by organizing and going through the piles of junk that have been accumulating in my house this weekend.. but then the weather was so beautiful that I ended up outside most of the weekend!
Michelle says
CLEAN ME!
Spring cleaning has already started! Washing windows, cleaning carpets, cleaning out flower beds, ripping up rose bushes, drawing out plans for new flower beds, wiping down walls, yada yada yada!
Lee says
Clean me … ecstatic if I win this giveaway! Just discovered your blog (thus, already pretty ecstatic) and would LOVE to win this as we’re new homeowners with nasty carpeting a new kitty and no vacuum!
Katie says
CLEAN ME!
We just bought a new house that was built in the 70’s and sold to us by the original homeowners. So we have been BUSY cleaning out the dusty, dirty, and just plain gross nooks and crannies throughout the entire place. Seriously, I don’t even want to talk about some of the stuff I’ve found. My project last weekend was to clean and paint all the wooden shelves in the upstairs hall closet so that I can use them for purse and blanket storage. Unfortunately I only got to prime the shelves before the weather turned nasty outside and I had to stop. Gotta finish that soon!
Also, we need to clean out the guest bathroom (that’s rarely used). We didn’t clean it when we moved in (and it wasn’t cleaned when they moved out).
Leah Stutzman says
CLEAN ME!!
The biggest thing we do each Spring is put all the winter clothes away and purge for our annual garage sale. It feels so good to get rid of stuff!
Sarah says
CLEAN ME!
Nothing says spring cleaning like scrubbing the screens and putting them in the windows!
That pet hair broom looks wonderful. We have three house rabbits that shed a ton so it would definitely come in handy :-)
Thanks for another great giveaway!

My spring cleaning….first of all its to get rid of all those “junk drawers.” Everything seems pretty light and airy in our home until you look in some of our famed “junk areas.” I usually clean these out once or twice a year, but once and for all they are going to be cleaned out and uncluttered! Love the post and would love the bissel!
Ashlie says

CLEAN ME! We’re not into the swing of things yet, but you can be sure that closets will soon be in turmoil and furniture will be dusted where they haven’t been touched all year!
Catherine says

We have the sweetest pup, but her shedding makes it feel like spring cleaning every weekend! This give-away would be perfect for us (and her)! Our spring cleaning tradition will start next month with a nice closet-clean-out and yard sale!

We just started cleaning out our spare bedroom because we need to turn it into a nursery! This prize would be so stellar in helping to get our house clean from top to bottom!

Emily says

For my Spring cleaning I like to clean the entire house from top to bottom. Including moving the beds and couches and cleaning underneath. Seeing as we have 2 cats this vacuum would really come in handy!!
Jen says
CLEAN ME!
Being snowed-in this winter prompted me to start my cleaning a little early! Now the only project left is the closet in my bedroom. Not a pretty site.
shelly P. says
“CLEAN ME” my spring cleaning is moving! This Friday it’s all getting loaded up, and I never want to do it again.

We have a dog who is shedding like crazy right now. This would be perfect for us. We have a baby coming in September and need to clean and organize the house!
Kate says
CLEAN ME!!!!!
My spring cleaning this year has resulted in me actually cleaning on a regular basis! I’ve never been very good at keeping the house clean, but I’m making an effort to keep it clean even when no one’s going to be coming over.
Katie says
Hmmm… I submitted my comment but it has yet to show up (after a few minutes)… hopefully it’s ok and I’m commenting again!
CLEAN ME!
We just bought our first house… that came with 40 years of dust!!! Yuck! So our spring cleaning plan is to vacuum, dust, most, and de-gross our place from top to bottom… so I can sleep at night. :)
Last weekend I worked on cleaning and painting the upstairs closet shelves so I can store my nice, clean blankets and purses in there. We really need to deep clean our guest bathroom but it’s just not used much so it hasn’t been done yet.
katie says
Clean me! Closet cleaning, mopping, fridge cleanout. Also- hoping to do some painting. My cat-hair allergic bf will be so happy if I had a better working vacuum.
amanda june says
clean me!
oh wow, where to start. get the garden plot started, clean the porch, dust the house from top to bottom and wipe down the windows. but it will be beautiful afterwards!
Misty S. says
Clean me!
My husband and I have started on the yard. We want to get it looking good before the heat sets in. Next we will be cleaning out and re-organizing the garage.
De-cluttering is a weekly/monthly routine in the house, but the other areas get over looked through the year!
Rosa says
CLEAN ME!
This year spring cleaning is including getting ready for the arrival of our 2nd daughter. So, a lot of time will be spent on making room in the closets for her stuff as well as finding all the newborn stuff I used with our first daughter.
Ashley says

I started washing all of the windows in the house this weekend. It’s a big job
Maggie says
CLEAN ME! Spring cleaning in my house = a windows-open, tunes-on dusting and closet clean out. Get the good smells in and the winter coats out.
Brittney Dyche says

We’re moving so we are purging everything un-needed and cannot wait to organize the new house!
Julia says
CLEAN ME!!! It’s my first spring owning a house and I think there are still things left over from last year when we first moved in that haven’t been put away. That is my number one spring cleaning goal.
Shawn says
Yard work is underway and I have been cutting down brush in the backyard.

I have already started by cleaning all the mopboards – they were VERY dusty! Next comes the windows, but living in Minnesota they will have to wait for awhile. Good luck to everyone alreay in the cleaning mode.
