***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!

Time for the seasonal cleaning of the closets–get rid of everything that hasn’t been worn in a year.
Allison says
CLEAN ME… I just spent the kitchen reorganizing my kitchen cabinets and pantry. The amount of food I discovered was incredible! I won’t need to go to the grocery store for weeks, except for fresh fruits and veggies!
Sarah C. says
CLEAN ME!
Our new closet-turned-mudroom project is underway! We’ve cleaned out all the coats and put in a bench, and this weekend we purchased a hat/coat rack from IKEA.
Next project, cleaning out the garage!
Rachel says
CLEAN ME!
I just finished cleaning and organizing my huge walk in closet! Now I can actually walk in to it! I’ve been needing a new vacuum, my cats have been shedding and driving my allergies crazy!
Ashley says
CLEAN ME! :)
Planning to reorganize the pantry – it’s very deep and tall, and I need to come up with some creative solutions so I can actually see and reach everything
KVB says
Clean Me!
Purging – closets, clutter – get rid of all of it!
becca says
clean me, please!
i only wish i could get started on spring cleaning. we’re currently in the process of selling our old home and buying our new one. everything is in boxes (and it’s starting to drive me nuts!)… it’d be nice knowing that we’d have a great to keep clean going into the new house…
Audrey says
CLEAN ME!
Two cats, a dalmatian, a baby and a husband…that should be enough explanation!
Val says
CLEAN ME!
I usually just bring up my summer clothes from storage and switch up my closet. Can’t wait!
Kelsey says
CLEAN ME!!
I REALLY need that broom to help me clean up all the dog hair that seems to multiply on my floors.
Amelia says
CLEAN ME!
The newest tradition is gardening – since my husband and I bought our first home, it’s time to get going on that little plot we now own!
Erika says
CLEAN ME!!
I always clean out all my cupboards in the spring and wash all the bedspreads, curtains, rugs, etc. Love the blog!
Kira says
CLEAN ME!!!
Right now I’m working on cleaning all the little bugs out from between the window panes and the screens… Yuk!
Leslie W. says
Clean me!
Most of my spring cleaning is done outside getting the flower beds ready for the summer and the deck and patio ready for the furniture again.
Katy says
CLEAN ME!
I haven’t really started the Spring Cleaning yet, but we have been doing small fixes around the house, like screwing in the towel bar in the master bathroom so that it’s more sturdy.
JW says
CLEAN ME! cleaning baseboards, cleaning out all closets, kitchen cupboards and sorting papers!
Kell says
CLEAN ME
Last night I started deciding what to do with my garden this year. Last year I tried and it just looked sparse and sickly. This year I will succeed!
Jill Stigs says
“CLEAN ME”
Um, I am sort of OCD and actually do what most consider spring cleaning year round. I do have a cat and this vacuum would help w/the cat hair though!!
Casey says
Cleaning the closets… all of them! I am purging the clothes and giving them to the homeless shelter nearby. A goal for this year is also to use up all of the things I have been storing in closets around my house– bottles of shampoo, yarn for craft projects, the facial masks I will do “someday.” Not only will I be cleaner and more organized, but I will feel better about giving a second life to some things and creating a space filled with less STUFF.
Laura says
CLEAN ME
Any posts about seeding a yard would be appreciated! We are planning a huge gardening project for next month. Tilling, leveling the ground and seeding our backyard while trying to keep a one-year-old hound off of it! Wish us luck.
Amanda says
CLEAN ME!
Spring Cleaning that is already underway is getting rid of clutter!
Anne says
CLEAN ME! Please!
Spring cleaning is much easier when you do it year round. Some year I will take that advice and not frantically clean 1 hour before people come over.
Katy T says
CLEAN ME!
I plan to tackle the closets soon!
I would love a new vacuum. Ours sucks….and not in a good way! Thanks!
Sherrie & Jason says
CLEAN ME!
Spring cleaning is well under way in our house- we’ve cleaned out three closets in the house, leaving us with beautifully organized closets, bags of stuff to donate, and peace of mind :] Next is the garage (dun, dun, DUN!)
Britta says
CLEAN ME!
The basement boxes of “stuff saved from childhood”. His dad sent us them without going through them. Moldy pieces of art? Check. Porcelin figurines that have no special memory? Check. One sandal from age 5 without the match? Check.
Allison says
CLEAN ME!
We just did a huge overhaul of our closets! Luckily, all of the clothes we were able to purge are en route to Goodwill!
Andrea W says
CLEAN ME!
I am actually excited about spring cleaning this year as it will be the first spring since we purchased our house. I can’t wait to tackle the windows!! (I’ve never enjoyed it until now!!)
Jen says
CLEAN ME!
My hubby and I just bought a house, so we are cleaning and throwing out as much as possible before the big move!

Clean me!!
I was all about the closet cleaning this weekend! Poor Goodwill won’t know what hit them when they see the mounds of bags and boxes heading their way.
Jessica says
CLEAN ME!!
I’m working on cleaning out all closets (mainly clothing) – making Goodwill piles and consignment piles. I raided my pantry/fridge last week and threw away a trash bag full of out of date food – gotta work on that.
Sarah says
CLEAN ME!
I can’t wait for the snow to melt and start cleaning up the patio! A clean patio means room to grill!
grace says
CLEAN ME! We spend the weekend pulling out all our spring/summer clothes, packing up all our winter clothes and blankets. As for cleaning, we open all the windows for some much needed circulation, give the house a thorough clean and prep the veggie garden for a new season.
Bethany says
CLEAN ME!
getting rid of furry children hair in my house is high on my to do list!

The outside of the windows and getting the gunk out of our garden!

We are getting ready to turn our garage into a playroom for our rambunctious brood!

CLEAN ME!
We organize all of our closets and donate clothes at the end of each season.

CLEAN ME! I’m starting my spring cleaning by decluttering my closets. I have a bag in our bedroom that I have been filling with clothes, purses and shoes that need to go to Goodwill.
Pamela says
CLEAN ME!!
I’ve gotten my front flower bed planted, still trying to figure out the side one. And the vegetable garden is waiting on the tiller we share with my inlaws -if only the rain will stop long enough for them to use it first.
erin says
CLEAN ME!
I’m so excited to get everything cleaned out and organized! There’s nothing better than a house where everything is perfectly in place.
Savannah Kirsche says
CLEAN ME!
We are just about to start planting all of the flowers outside! Can’t wait!
Sarah L says
CLEAN ME!
No spring cleaning so much as spring finishing up projects on our new house. First up? Painting over the hideous eggplant colored wall in the living room. Did I mention that it’s semi-gloss eggplant colored? Yeah.
Jessica says
CLEAN ME!
I just went to IKEA this weekend and bought some closet organizing accessories – hanging shoe holder, 4 basket shelf for folded clothes and fun colored boxes for the shelf up top. I can’t wait to purge and organize!
Megan S says
CLEAN ME!
That pet hair broom is on my wish list for spring cleaning! We’re in the process of scrubbing down the patio and tearing out the indoor/outdoor carpet (you know…that green stuff) for something a bit more chic.
Abby says
CLEAN ME!!
I’m so glad you chose “clean” instead of something else! LOL I scrolled down very slowly thinking “no- they wouldn’t…right?”
I am going to start off my spring cleaning with cleaning and sealing my grout. No amount of mopping can make a floor look good if the white grout is grayish!
Sarah says
CLEAN ME!!!
I’ve been hit with the ‘re-arrange furniture’ bug this spring :)
Brooke says
CLEAN ME!
I’ll be scrubbing the deck for spring use once the weather gets warmer.
Hillary Child says
CLEAN ME!
We are trying to decrapify our basement, and also would love a better way to keep cat hair at bay. We love our baby Topher, just not all his hair.

CLEAN ME!
With three dogs in the house, this fab freebie is a must for us! As far as spring cleaning, I always like to clean out drawers and closets. I try to donate items that we no longer use.
