American Home Shield and a $100 Service Gift Card Giveaway (Merry Maids, Terminix, Service Master Cleaner, etc)

*This is a sponsored giveaway. All my opinions are my own and not swayed by outside sources.*

We love our house and can’t believe we’ve already been in it for five years! It is exciting owning your own home and investing in creating the exact space that you desire to live in, and one that perfectly fits the lifestyle of your family. Of course with such little kids that is an ongoing process for us, my friend said she finally finished really decorating her home when her youngest turned 10 and she knew things wouldn’t get trashed anymore. That is a long way off for us, but in the meantime we are making our home perfect for the ages of our kids now. The only thing is that after five years, and two toddlers, things are already beginning to need repair and sprucing up, and we are learning quickly how it adds up!1

The average American homeowner can spend one to four percent of their home’s value annually on maintenance and repairs, according to Freddie Mac. In fact, a 2013 study conducted by Decision Analyst for American Home Shield found that within a 12-month period, the typical household will spend an average of $1,302 on repairs and replacements! Ouch!

American Home shield is the nation’s largest provider of home warranties, which we are so grateful to have for our home as things go wrong! Now through September 30th American Home shield is hosting a “Summer of Giveaways” that I don’t want my readers to miss out on! This is an incredible opportunity to win the grand prize of a kitchen makeover! Even if you don’t win a new kitchen you could still be the lucky winner of one of the $10,000 in other prizes they are also giving away like new appliances, gift cards, and other home items you will love! So if, like me, you are looking to upgrade your home or kitchen this is a great opportunity not to be missed.

It is a struggle with little kids between maintenance and décor, but we really work hard to make our home a little haven for our family, and that includes keeping things working smoothly and in good shape. We are proud homeowners who worked really hard to get to this point in our lives, and now we want to take good care of our investment that we had dreamed of for so long before it became a reality. I feel like that care is reflected it the way we try to maintain our home inside and out. I know that the years with little kids running around trashing the place will fly by before we know it, and that dream décor will become a reality, but in the meantime, I’m savoring our beautiful home for what it is, the place where our memories are being made.

Be sure to enter:  For those looking to upgrade their homes and kitchens, American Home Shield, the nation’s largest provider of home warranties, is giving homeowners a chance to win several new appliances, gift cards and home items in the “Summer of Giveaways” sweepstakes. Through September 30, 2014, American Home Shield is giving away $10,000 in other prizes and entries for a chance to win the grand prize – a $25,000 kitchen makeover!

  8. Mary Happymommy says

    We’re going to be buying a new house so I think we’d like the AmeriSpec Inspection Services. Thanks!

  10. Donna Cheatle says

    I’d probably get the Terminex! We’ve used AHS for more than 10 years on our rental properties! They are a great company and oh so definitely worth every penny!!

  11. Donna Cheatle says

    I’ve been a follower for about 2 years and I love the great variety of giveaways you have!

  14. Stacey - Seattle Mom Blog says

    I could definitely use $100.00 to use with Merry Maids. My house is a disaster!

  30. K. Finn says

    I probably would go with Merry Maids. I could use help in cleaning my place before selling it.

  32. Carlene R. says

    Merry Maids !! I have baby #3 on the way and this would be great to have the house cleaned once I have had the baby so I have one less thing to do 🙂

  39. Jessica A. Nirri says

    Merry maids or service master clean .. Not 100% sure what these are but pretty sure it’s cleaning companys .. Don’t need terminix and the others I have no clue what they are …

  50. Gina M (Wild Orchid) says

    I would love to win a card to Merry Maids!!

    Entered the rafflecopter form as “Wild Orchid”

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  56. Connie Sowards says

    Merry Maids! My house needs a great cleaning because we might be moving soon. 🙂

  57. Robert Tschinkel says

    would like to win Merry Maids, even though I live in an apartment
    I have limited mobility and a thorough cleaning would be helpful

  61. Kristin Schmidt says

    I would DIE for the Merry Maids! I just had a baby and I take him to work with me daily, so by the time I get home to clean — I just don’t feel like it! My boy wears me out, but I love spending the time with him 😉 But for real, it’d be nice to have my house actually CLEANED and not “picked up” LOL!

  66. chris hoey says

    MERRY MAIDS!!! i would love someone else to clean my house used to have it done but not by Merry Maids, it’s to die for!!

  80. Katrina says

    Looks like the Merry Maids are most popular, and that’s definitely what I would choose too!

  87. Amber Carroll says

    The Merry Maids gift card would be a God-send for me; I have a small daughter and an evening job. Cleaning would be so much better with a gift card from Merry Maids!

  119. Heather Freeman says

    After checking into each service it seems like Service Master Clean would be my pick. My carpets could use cleaning.

  147. Carolyn Daley says

    I think I would like Terminix to help prevent bugs by having them spray outside around the house.

  166. clynsg says

    Would choose Service Master Clean. We have AMH, and it has been really great, since we moved into an older house and a couple of things needed to be done almost right away.

  175. Brandi G says

    I would totally pick the Merry Maids. My house could REALLY use it! What a wonderful treat that would be. 🙂

  179. Christina Ventura-DiPersia says

    I want the merry maids gift card. My house looks like a tornado went through it with us working so many jobs here and a toddler.

  186. Madalyn Haire says

    The Terminix! We have been taken over by sand fleas since the farmer next to us sprayed his field. Been living with family til we get is something done…Bombing house every 2 days & yard work but nothing done.

  188. MARIA simon says

    wouldn’t know what to do with myself with the merry maids..would be soooooooo happy to have a clean house 🙂
