Anniversary Bash #5: CSN Stores $70 Gift Certificate {Giveaway}

{This giveaway is now closed. Thanks to those who entered!}

Recently my husband and I were discussing a few things that we need around the house. Or, to clarify, I was pointing out a few things that we need and he was half-listening with no plans to do anything about it. I'm not talking anything major, but is it too much to ask that the lights turn on when I flip the switch in our master bathroom?

Really he should just be grateful that I haven't spent more time than I have browsing the 200+ stores that CSN runs. Is there a way to visit over there and not come away with a long list of things that would be great to have? As it is, having run a few CSN giveaways, I've done my fair share of window shopping (and possibly purchased a thing or two) and there are definitely more items than just a new light that we could enjoy around here.

For starters, how cool would it be if, on days that we don't have any plans to go anywhere, I could just point my kids right out the door to go play in the yard on this:

All that they would have to do is take turns being the driver and they could have all kinds of adventures on the SportsPlay School Bus Multi-Spring Rider. But maybe they need something that they can both get plenty of use out of, as well as all of their friends. In that case, how about one of these for a whole lot of climbing fun:

The SportsPlay Super Dome Climber probably wouldn't actually fit in our yard, but it also would keep my girls occupied for quite some time. However, for the ultimate in entertainment, I'm pretty sure I could just sit back and relax on our swing and let the kids go crazy if I could just set up one of these:

I don't see why they would ever want to come out of the Kidwise Clubhouse Climber - who would?

Of course CSN has many more practical items than these, so whether you're looking for new furniture, an item for your pampered pet or maybe a new espresso machine for a unique gift, chances are that they'll have it. Not only that, but with free shipping on many items and thousands of sales and promotions, there is always a great deal just waiting to be had.

Ready to start browsing? Head over to CSN.com and search by category, brand, room, industry and more - but be warned that with a selection this size, it's easy to find yourself still looking hours later. Fortunately, thanks to the generosity of CSN, that won't be a problem for one person, because...

One lucky person will win a $70 gift certificate to CSN Stores!
