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 would probably use it for one of two things:
1. $50 in a gift card would help me justify the cost of buying the small sewing machine I saw there to try my hand at making clothes – a hobby I have been wanting to try that makes my family kind of snicker and shake their heads… ~OR~
2. I would buy myself a couple of sleeve T shirts (at least one of them the bright orange I am loving lately) and some coordinating leggings with fun socks (preferably with toes!) for some new “comfy and warm PJs” South Florida style

I would either ‘re-gift’ it to my brother, who is giving no one any ideas for what he would like for Christmas. Or I would use it for myself as a Christmas treat to me. I seem to ignore myself around this time of year even though I’m in need of a few sweaters and a pair of boots!

I would buy myself a pair of slipper, been needing some. Also I’ve really been wanting a popcorn popper. Sounds silly, but it’s my fav snack and so much cheaper that way. Thanks so much for all you do!!

I just subscribed! I would use it towards a Sonicare Toothbrush, since it costs 100 dollars!!

I would buy flannel PJs (a.k.a. passion killers), a box of tea and the latest Scarpetta novel by Patricia Cornwell. I’d kick my hubby out for the evening and have myself a grand old (quiet) time! Thanks for the chance!!
