Walking through Target last week I found myself perusing the DVD isles and came across a very, VERY good deal. How I Met Your Mother Season 1 for half-off with only 1 copy left. Obviously, the HIMYM gods were sending me a very clear sign. Initially, I thought I should keep it for myself. Vladeraptor owns seasons 1-3 (or is it 4 now?) and one day we will have a roommate divorce, leaving me without the awesomeness of my future-bff, NPH. Then I thought about it even more and I realized there are 2 types of people in this world.
1. Those who are How I Met Your Mother fans
2. Those who have never seen the show.
So what would be the most awesome giveaway in the history of ever? How about a reward for the first, or a chance to open up a world of awesomness that is HIMYM to the second? Definitely a win-win for me!
That's right my friends, you now have a chance to win this:

I love HIMYM and I agree with you about the two types of people. I already have the season one DVD so you don't have to enter me into the contest but I just wanted to share that I think this show is awesome. Wrestlers vs Robots!!
I'm awesome because I live near you, and I would save you shipping on the DVD. If I won, I'd come by to pick it up and also drop off a batch of homemade cupcakes.
And since I'm a new HIMYM fan, I think I need this! :-) I'll be blogging about this today, btw!
Have fun in Beantown. Say hello to NKOTB for me!
I'm not sure why I wasn't a follower before but I am now!
And I'm awesome because my puppy thinks so, hehe.
I already own this legendary slice of awesome, so don't enter me -- this needs to go to someone who has never seen this show so they can be equally as hooked. People WHY ARE YOU NOT WATCHING HIMYM? Sad is what it is.
LOVE this giveaway!
Yes hi...I am a follower who falls into the category of people who have never seen HIMYM. I totally trust your judgement though that it is an awesome show and so I would love to be entered. :)
I am a HIMYM fan but only because of Barney. Best character on TV. Well, Marshall is hilarious too as is Lily.
But what is up with Robin's wardrobe?! She wears some of the ugliest crud lately
Man, that REALLY IS awesome!! :) Yay!! I'm a follower of course....
I'm a follower and I have never seen this show which is blasphemy because I do indeed love NPH.
Hook a sister up.
OMG! I agree with Amanda! I think this should go to someone who has not found the awesomeness of HIMYM yet! So don't count me in either. But I wills till get the word out about it. Oh and by the way, I acutally did a post a while back titled: This is Why I am Awesome..

I know that you will love it!
I already own it thanks to Mr. Chicken. But it should go to a person who has never seen it before, then they will know the awesome that it is. I've been trying not to make fart noises in the office today each time somebody gets all high and mighty.
