{GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED}
Bright and early on a recent Saturday morning, 6 friends and I took off for a local Homegoods in the Tucker area. We were chattering and talking like school girls, excited about our field trip to the shopping mecca called Homegoods.
Not a stranger to Homegoods, I have been a huge fan for many years and sing their praises every chance I get. This store truly is one of my top shopping destinations when I’m buying retail. You can get more bang for your buck in home decor at Homegoods than just about any other store I know.
We arrived plenty early before the doors were opened, but that was fine with us. We had lots to chat about. 
Mom and new blog friend, Lori, waiting for the doors to open.
Susan brought along her outdoor pillow she found at Home Depot, to find some cushions for her new wicker set. We are getting ready to redo Susan’s back deck very soon and these will be gorgeous. 
Debbie (who owns the beautiful screened porch I just featured), me and my long time friend, Ruby. I love these ladies! They have been with me through thick and thin. You can see by the smiles we were all ready for our shopping spree.
In we went to a beautiful breakfast spread. What a treat that was! 
I finally got to meet Jenny Lauck with BlogHer (foreground in black), after emailing with her over the years. Those BlogHer girls are great too! That’s my friend, Sandy, there to the left. 
Mary with Homegoods corporate in Massachusetts welcomed us with a wonderful hello. Giftcards were handed out and off we went to the races! 
Lauren, Debbie’s daughter, came along for the shopping spree. We all grabbed a cart to fill.
Lakeitha found some beautiful lamps. I’m a lamp girl too!
Susan found some lime green cushions to go on her brown wicker set, along with some pretty accent pieces.
Hanging around waiting to shop more.
Sweet friend, Sandy, was here this weekend for BlogHer Food and I was so glad we got to meet up and visit. Love this girl too!
So, what did I use my $100 to shop for? I’m going to be redoing my bathroom at my parent’s house and found some great things to start the inspiration, using the avocado tiles and aqua countertops. It’s going to be a great redo too!
Ruby is working on a new bedroom plan and this rug caught her eye. She had me come over and approve it. Yes, yes! Get it!
I spied a few more things that caught my eye, which is not hard to do at Homegoods.
Aren’t these cute little side tables?
I thought someone just had to buy these, they were so pretty. Turns out Lauren bought one!
This $99 side table was so cute too! It’s hard to pass up all the cuteness at Homegoods.
Deep blue and white chairs were gorgeous! 
These linens were too.
Sandy found some great linens to entertain with. After all, she is the queen of entertaining. We all need to take some lessons from Sandy.
My friend, Debbie, found some black and white to add to her pretty porch this summer.
Here’s my shopping gang: (L to R) Mom, Debbie, Lauren, me, Ruby, Heidi, and Susan. You can tell by the smiles that fun was had by all.
Thank you Homegoods for making this day such a special treat for all of us. I’m so happy to be included among the bloggers who were offered this shopping spree for a few of our friends.

Believe it or not, I have never been to Home Goods! There is one about 30 miles from my house. If I won, I would look for a couple of floor lamps. My fingers are crossed!
I would love to make a special trip to Homegoods to do some shopping! I can’t even imagine where I would begin! I’d like to redo my living room and update it. I’m especially looking for sofa covers (not sure if Homegoods carries those?)…but then new towels and accessories for the bathroom would be nice too! So many choices!!!
I’d love to get some new lamps for our master bedroom.
OH MY…. What an awesome giveaway. No one has trouble spending $$$$$$ at HomeGoods! 🙂 I’d buy some new things for my bathroom…. or, for my kitchen….. or for my living room?… 🙂 So many things to choose from, right?
Warm blessings,
Spencer
What would I buy with the $100 gift card? That is such a hard question since I WANT IT ALL. lol But most likely some new cake stands I love the selection they have and how affordable they are.
I tweeted about the giveaway :). Here is the link http://twitter.com/newmodernmomma
I’ve been to HomeGoods twice this week and didn’t leave empty handed either time! I’d LOVE to win this gift card! One can never have too many pretty things!
Browsing Homegoods is my “happy place”! I would use the gift card to stock up on towels and linens for our new cottage in Michigan! Thanks for the chance to win!
Being laid off in September, Hip replacement after that with complications, and still in limbo, I would use the gift card to get some bakeware and bedding. Money is tight, I am baking for extra pennies, and I Adore Homegoods!! They have everything and anything you could ever wish for to beautify your home and brighten your soul!!!
Love your blog. Would really appreciate getting some linens. My husband and I are on a fixed (teacher’s retirement) income. I have to eeeek out my pennies but my sister is coming for a visit and the sheets are very worn out. Would just love to purchase some crisp white linen I saw in Homegoods. You know, ones without anyone else’s droool on them. 🙂 Tee Hee!
I’d buy something to decorate the fireplace mantle.

Need to do my bedroom so would finally work on bringing that togther
We haven’t lived near a Home Goods for the past 3 years, but before that I shopped there every chance I got! We’re redoing our Master Bedroom and I’m in need of EVERYTHING!! Bedding, window treatments, lamps, end tables, chairs, throws, baskets, other accessories…oh the list could go on! And, a new store just opened up near my in-laws’ house. I’d LOVE LOVE LOVE to win this card! Thanks for doing a giveaway!
Some summer bedding or a new rug. Thanks for the opportunity.
I just blogged about it.
Hi! I am hooked on HomeGoods!!! It’s probably a good thing I don’t have one around the corner from my house (or office) of I’d be BROKE! Right now I am looking for a perfect ottoman to go with the chair I got there years ago, as well as beachy decor. I also collect cake plates, so I’m a sucker for those, too!
Thanks so much!!!

I could do some real damage with this gift card. Or I would at least try to anyway. Heres to me winning!

I love to look for whiteware but I can hardly limit myself to one area when I am in Homegoods. Love their store. Sending blessings to you.
I work very near the new Tucker Home Goods…which is dangerous for my wallet!! I’m in there all the time on my lunch break! If I win (pick me! pick me!) I’ll get some of their great pots and outdoor stuff for my porch makeover!
