What will you do with $100 Amazon gift card? Go on a shopping spree, I guess – because that’s what I did.
I recently won $100 Amazon gift card from one of the online contests and giveaways that I joined. Unknown to many, I love joining these contests, staying up late at night just to follow Twitter accounts, leaving blog comments, voting for so-and-so, liking Facebook pages and doing other similar stuffs that are usually required as entries in giveaways. And I’m so glad that my efforts paid off. This is my first win this year, yey!
I decided to splurge on some books during my recent shopping at Amazon. Most of the books that I bought are for Kindle however, I also ordered printed copies of two books authored by Michael Masterson (or Mark Morgan Ford). One is Automatic Wealth: The Six Steps to Financial Independence and the other is Power and Persuasion: How to Command Success in Business and Your Personal Life.
I actually was planning to buy a sewing machine because I wanted to start a new hobby but I decided to just buy one at a local store so that I can try it out. Since there’s not much you can buy with your $100 (blame inflation!), I figured books will be the best choice.
Have you ever joined and won online contests before? What was your prize? What did you do with it? Care to share in the comments section?
