How does an extra $50 to stretch your Christmas budget sound?
I know for many of us it would be a true blessing right now. Well, you’re in luck, because I’ve got one $50 Walmart gift card up for grabs today that will arrive just in time to do some Christmas shopping!
So how can you win this?
If you’re anything like me, I’m sure if you won this $50 GC, you’d end up spending it on anyone BUT yourself. So just for a minute I’d like you to pretend that you have no other obligations and can use this money to buy yourself a little something special. I think as mom we often overlook treating ourselves, so I’d like to hear what you’d buy if you were the winner. Resources for ideas are the Walmart website and the 2008 Holiday Entertaining Guide. Of course, if you’re the winner you can use the gift certificate to purchase anything you want.
Every reader has four methods available to enter this contest. Choose one each of any combination of method one, two, three, or four, for up to a total of 4 entries!!!
1. Leave a comment sharing what you would purchase if you were to spend the money on yourself only!
2. Take just 2 seconds to click over to The Coupon Cupboard to vote for Deal Seeking Mom as your favorite deals blog. Make sure to come back and leave a separate comment letting me know you voted! (This option is only available through Sunday, November 23rd, at 8:00 p.m., EST.)
3. Subscribe to my feed via RSS or email and leave a separate comment letting me know you have done so. If you’re already a subscriber, simply leave a separate comment letting me know you’re already subscribed. Lovin’ my subscribers! You guys make this all possible.
4. Spread the word about this contest in some manner and come back and leave a link in a separate comment. If you have a blog, you can blog about it. But if you don’t have a blog, you’re not at a disadvantage. You could review and Stumble it. You could Twitter it. You could post about it in a forum. Use your imagination!
It is important that you leave a separate comment for each type of entry because each comment is equal to one entry. Sorry to harp on this, but it really is that important to tally and select the winner easily, so I thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me simplify the process!
Prize:
1 $50 Walmart Gift Certificate
This giveaway ends at 11:59 p.m. EDT on Monday, November 24th. I’ll use Random.org to generate a number that corresponds with the winning comment number and post the winner on Tuesday, November 25th. Good luck!

I’m in desperate need of new clothes. So that’s how I’d splurge on myself.

Chocolate comes to my mind. We all need to indulge ourselves once in awhile. Of course that would be a lot of chocolate but it has a long shelf life, ha.

Wow! What a great Christmas this would be for us moms! If I won, I’d love to have a Frank Sinatra CD, some new romance novels, a package of Keebler Townhouse crackers with a can of Easy Cheese (cheddar flavored), and some Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Good Luck to all! What a great blog! How nice is it to have someone to ask what us moms want for Christmas.

I signed up for the email and I already posted a bulletin about this offer on my myspace page. I also started following you on Twitter!! Yeah for me!

Since we’re keeping the heat off other than to “warm up” twice a day for an hour, I’d love to have a new set of fleecy lounging clothes – pants and a top. I also broke my teapot, so to go with lovely soft fleece, a new teapot to brew a steaming warm-me-up-from-the-inside-out pot of tea would be wonderful. And to round out this winter treat-me-treat, a paperback novel (perhaps Christmas-themed!) would be the BEST!
So that’s what I’d do to feed my soul!
Blessings,
Michelle
