***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 have no rituals yet – see I’m in a new house, with a new dog, and my six and a half year old boy. I am a single mom in our first house, and I sure could use some cleaning help:)
Jacqueline says
CLEAN ME!
I always start with purging….the closets, cabinets, everything. It always feels good to have less clutter around, light and airy like spring.

Started cleaning the sunroom this weekend, woohoo spring here I come!
Reva says
PLEASE CLEAN ME!
Our only pets are dust-bunnies, and we fight an ongoing battle for dominance over them.
As for spring cleaning, we moved here just last August but I think we’re already due to clean out some extra stuff we have in our closets. And the files! Our files are a holy mess. Maybe if I win I will just vacuum them up. :)
Kristi says
CLEAN ME!
I would say, the yard is top priority for us!

Amy says
CLEAN ME— I begin my cleaning out my closets and pantry!

Every spring, I start with cleaning out the closets! I take out clothes that will not be worn anymore, pack winter’s clothes away, and put out spring’s.
Lemon says
CLEAN ME!
Washed the downstairs windows…that was the start and end of spring cleaning for the weekend.
Oh, and this vacuum looks like it rocks. We have two dogs and we go through vacuum cleaners like nobody’s business.
Carlyl says
CLEAN ME!!! I need a new vacuum cleaner so badly! Spring cleaning I like to open the windows and scrub everything. But I also like to purge by cleaning out closets, and other rooms of the house.
Kelly says
CLEAN ME!
My dog sheds constantly!
claudia says
CLEAN ME!
Since starting a business recently that we run from home, we are currently trying to create room for storage…should be fun.
Carrie L. says
CLEAN ME!
Right now I am trying to finish up our kitchen makeover, so when the weather gets warm I can direct all of my focus outside. I want to get our yard in tip top shape!
Paige says
Clean out the closets!
Amy says
CLEAN ME! Please!
When I move my winter clothes out of the closet, I try to get rid of the ones I never wore. I take the opportunity to go through my drawers and shoe rack too! I’d like to be better at actually getting rid of things, but this is the time of year that I really try!
Terri Byers says
Clean me! I can’t think about spring cleaning. . . only about Spring Break!!!
Emily G says
CLEAN ME! While it’s not in the house, I cleaned out my car this weekend…I think some of those nooks and crannys hadn’t seen a vacuum/dust cloth in five years. We also swept our balcony and cleaned off our outdoor furniture- horray for spring!
BeckyS says
CLEAN ME!
Well, we are about to start our landscape planning! In our first house we bought in December! Cant wait!! We could really use a new vacuum. Thanks!
Laura @ PARING DOWN says
CLEAN ME – My sweetie and I have been closet cleaning for two weekends now. YAY!!!
Christina says
Oh goodness, please clean me!
Starting eggplants, peppers, and onions indoors. The hard part? I’m in the middle of trying to buy a house and hopefully move into it sometime soon. So I’ll be cleaning twice! HELP!
Also, now that my dog has made friends with my roommate’s lab over the last couple years, I’m pretty much required to buy him a new playmate. Two dogs and a cat in a tiny Baltimore row home… HELP!
Emily says
CLEAN ME!!!
Broke my house into a whole bunch of areas (bathroom cabinets, coat closet, etc.) and choose one thing every day for about a month.
And then I’m done!
Caitlen says
CLEAN ME!
You have NO idea how much we need you. Maintaining a clean home with an Australian Shepherd can be quite a daunting task. That broom would definitely help with her fur!
tracy says
CLEAN ME!!
Our next project is cleaning out the closet, installing new shelves, etc.
Tammy H. says
CLEAN ME!
This would be the perfect start to the Spring cleaning that needs to happen in our house!
Meredith says
CLEAN ME!
Please pick us. We have a 15 month old, cook every night (which makes us feel like our house is ALWAYS dirty and we have a 15 year old dog that is “drippy”. She makes everything dirty. This is our cleaning ritual.
I cry.
I yell at my husband.
He knows that means I am stressed about how dirty the house is.
We spend our weekend cleaning.
We fall in love all over again.
Thanks for an awesome blog!
Jennifer says
CLEAN ME :)
The vacuum looks like it works like a champ! Could definitely use it to vacuum up our beloved dog’s hair! Our dog Boomer rocks but is very hairy!
Katherine says
“CLEAN ME”
Cleaned out our closet today. Tomorrow is washing down all baseboards and windows..
Kelsey Preston says
CLEAN ME!
This Spring I plan on purging my house for our upcoming PCS, military move. I need to comb through closets, storage area, clothes, everything! Then top it off with a moving sale. Our current vacuum is getting closer to the light recently so I new vac. would be awesome :)
Jim says
CLEAN ME!
Just busted out the vacuum today to start my spring de-furring, de-dusting of the house and it started shooting out smoke. Timely giveaway!
Tonya says
CLEAN ME!
We’re always cleaning around here! With 6 kids on a mini farm, there’s always cleaning to be done. But, I do sure need to go through all the clothes (again!) and purge, pack away for the youngers, organize for new seasons, that sort of thing.
Hayley says
CLEAN ME!
I am trying to plan a slipcover washing session. A must with a toddler- but since they have to air dry I need to find a dry day for them to sit outside. Every free day I have had lately since to have rain.
Cheers!
Siiri says
CLEAN ME!
Spending spring break cleaning all the windows and baseboards!
Stefanie says
Pretty Please “Clean Me”
I will be starting to have to vacuum everyday when our Shepard mix will start losing his winter coat. I have started cleaning out the kitchen cupboards, next will be our coat closet and clothes closet.
Erin says
CLEAN ME!
I’ve been cleaning out the closets, donating things I no longer need.
Kim says
CLEAN ME
This last weekend we started pulling weeds and cleaning out closets!
Casey says
CLEAN ME!
I just love the idea of having this powerful machine to do my vacuuming with. Each Spring, my husband and I buy 2 ferns for hanging on the porch, shop for flowers and plant them out front. We also pull weeds and refresh the natural areas. I do the closets and put away all things winter, then take out all the beautiful pastel decorations for Easter and Spring.
Whitney says
CLEAN ME!
i empty out my fridge and all my kitchen cupboards, check expiration dates, wipe everything down, and start fresh… thrilling, no? :)
Alison says
CLEAN ME! We totally need a new vacuum cleaner! I am starting my seeds this week for our garden this summer.
mandy says
CLEAN ME!!
I am super excited to be getting back into the garden now that the weather is warming up! I’ve also been busy sorting through things I no longer need and organizing what I have.
lea says
CLEAN ME! Help is wanted for my daughter who has twins.
It would help so much!
Kait says
Clean me!
I’ve got a long way to go, but have started outside since the show is gone (hopefully for the season!). Next on the list is to do the closets…. oh boy this is stressing me out! :)
Brandi U. says
“CLEAN ME”
Great giveaway! Since we just moved into our new place, it’s already pretty clean. But I’d love to do a thorough job, cleaning all the nooks and crannies and mopping.
Amy says
Clean me!
I’m cleaning out my freezer, one meal at a time. Getting some creative meals out of collection of ingredients and spending less at the grocery store!
Jessika says
CLEAN ME!!!
Every season I clean out my wardrobe of all the articles I didn’t wear.
Cindy D. says

Charlotte says
CLEAN ME
Every year I clean my closet. It is so cleansing to get rid of the old and most importantly bring in the new :) New clothes that is! I also like to cleanse out my papers/books etc. I am about to graduate with my masters degree so this year will be a big CLEAN OUT! I can’t wait to get rid of all those papers and tests that are weighing me down. This year is also especially important becuase I am getting married. I have to make room for my fiance’s stuff… Maybe I should make him spring clean too.
Brenna says
Clean me!
We just bought our first home, and before that I’ve moved once a year with the exception of a two-year stint in a basement apartment, so we don’t really have any rituals yet. The windows in our old house DEFINITELY need some work, though, and actually, the exterior does too. I’m sort of looking forward to some purging and cleaning. Thanks!
