Fifteen Minutes for Mommy: PEOPLE Magazine is a Guilty Pleasure! GIVEAWAY!!!

November 12, 2012 · by Tiffany Merritt · 234 Comments

We are just days away from a very important shopping event.

No, I’m not talking about Black Friday. I’m referring to something that is going to hit the stores on November 16th. If you haven’t already, you must mark your calendars so that you can be ready!

I’m talking about PEOPLE Magazine’s Annual Sexiest Man Alive issue.

I’m grinning from ear to ear just thinking about it! That issue is a total guilty pleasure for me! I love to curl up with some Godiva ice cream and flip through the pages of dreaminess. I don’t get to spend too much time learning about the latest and greatest celebrities, so it isn’t unusual for me to know precious little about the winner (last year’s winner, Bradley Cooper, was totally unknown to me…which makes me feel sort of old and out of touch, but I digress).

Who do you think will win this year? If social media has anything to say about it, it’s going to be Ryan Gosling. All those “Hey Girl” photos and captions that are rampant on Pinterest and Facebook crack me up. And he really is a cutie, I have to say!

Regardless of whether or not Ryan is on the cover of the upcoming issue, I can tell you that I will be headed over to Walgreens to get the issue. I may have to read it over several days, as getting enough time to myself to read an entire magazine cover to cover is a very rare thing, indeed. But a girl can dream, can’t she?

Don’t miss this issue, as it is only going to be on the stands for 2 weeks! I think it would make a fun stocking stuffer or part of a “pampering” holiday gift for a girlfriend! Or you could even get a year’s subscription to the magazine for a really special treat!

PEOPLE Magazine is such a fun read. It’s the magazine I gravitate toward at the check out line and the one I scoop up first when I’m in any waiting room that has one! I think their pictures tend to be really good, and their articles are short and sweet, which is exactly what I need as a busy mom. I actually flip through it to get hair and style ideas, and if I have time left over, I’ll check out some juicy celebrity gossip. It’s a wonderful way to take a break from the craziness of your day and get caught up on the latest hot looks (most of which can be easily copied with affordable fashion) and to see what your favorite celebrities are up to this week. You can also learn about the movies that are coming out and hopefully be inspired to plan a date with your significant other so that you can enjoy some kid-free time together!

While I enjoy PEOPLE Magazine any time of the year, it really is the Annual Sexiest Man Alive issue that makes my heart go aflutter. I know when it comes out that I’ll find a way to carve out some time to myself to giggle like a teenager and do a little swooning.

Win it!: One lucky Stuff Parents Need reader is going to snag a $20 gift card to Walgreens so you can get yourself the PEOPLE Magazine’s Annual Sexiest Man Alive issue, some ice cream, a bottle of nail polish or whatever else you consider to be a a total indulgence for yourself!
