If I win, I will probably use the gift card to buy diapers and pull ups! Not too exciting, I guess, but it would free up some money to pay off debt!
Sounds like a good plan! Use it for the necessities! I like it!
I Also, would probably use it to buy diapers, and wipes. Babies sure are expensive, but worth it! Thanks, I hope I win!
This is cool. I am tweeting this out so that when one of my friends wins they can take me to dinner.

Ha, that’s a pretty good idea. You’ve already increased your odds of winning!
Lol
If I won, I’d probably use the $100 toward video games.
I hope those are educational video games! I might be a little nerdy, but I always wanted a video game where I could walk around and appraise the value of properties, then purchase the deals and rent them out for a passive income. Essentially, I guess it would be a real estate investment game.
i’d probably buy k-cups or shoes or books
kjasus recently posted..$25 Amazon GC
Ha, that reminds me…. we need to buy some k-cups.
I recently heard a report about those K-cup single serve coffee cups. Did you know that buying those, you are paying about $51 per pound of coffee!? Does not seem very financially responsible to me, when you can get decent ground coffee at the store for about $8-10 per pound.
If I won, I would buy some not so normal necessites. Maybe a kitchen gadget or three.
Hmm, I didn’t expect that, but those gadgets could save you some time in the kitchen! Good luck with the contest!
I’d probably buy some Legos or video games for my son’s upcoming birthday.
Sounds like your son might have a pretty awesome birthday if you win! Good luck!
If I won I would put the money towards the parts for a computer that I am building. Nothing like doing things for yourself!
Ha, I hear ya on that one. I built my first computer about 10 years ago. It was a riot!
I’d buy a new shirt! the last time a bought a shirt was 2 years ago.
Ha, I could use some new shirts too! I really hate shopping for clothes though…. it’s tough to find stuff when you’re 6’8″…
I would buy pet stuff since we’re adopting a new dog soon.
We just got a new puppy for Christmas! She’s actually on my lap right now! Yep, that pet stuff can get a little pricey.
I’d use the $100 dollars to take Mrs. BE out to a nice V-day dinner since I was on a business trip last week!

It would go straight in our “rescue a new dog” fund! We lost both our dogs this last year and have been saving up for a new dog, but would like to be able to make a significant donation to the rescue group.

I would probably use it to help rebuild our emergency fund.
Instead of taking out cash for diapers and baby supplies for a few weeks, I would order it from amazon and then transfer the cash I would have spent into our savings account.

$100 would buy lots of diapers for my little one!
I already commented, but I wanted to comment again just to throw out there that I save a ridiculous amount of money by cloth-diapering. Bought some old-fashioned chinese prefolds and some cute little covers and they paid for themselves in like a month
And laundry is not that big a deal, what’s a little poop?
Deanna Koch recently posted..Would You Like a Hug?
The $100 would go towards college expenses.
I’d buy my son new clothes — he’s growing out of everything!
$100 would go directly into savings
oops! I imagine my bank won’t take a gift card. Then, I’d probably get something I need, like a new pair of shoes for the gym.
I am saving for a computer. My is getting really bad not loading pages and just getting slower and slower. So this would help me do that.
Thanks!

I’m not sure what I’d buy with the $100 gift card. The only thing I can think of that I want/need right are some plain dish towels & Ritz dye. I have this idea that I can dye some to get some cheerful colors. (As you might guess, there aren’t a whole lot of “things” that I want!)
