Well, if I won, I'd buy some books I can't find here in my bookstores... there's an author I love that isn't published here, but I can find her on Amazon! Meg Gardiner, she is a great author, only published in the UK.
Thanks! Neat idea, btw, and congrats on your anniversary!
Thank you for letting us share in your Anniversary! Congrats by the way...
With a gift card, I'd like to buy my daughter's birthday gift (I stockpile gifts early, her b-day is in October) I plan on getting her some Mineral make up from there for the school year.

If I were to win the Amazon giftcard, I would buy Drop City by T.C. Boyle. I read a review of it and it sounds amazing.
I would buy a furminator and a Ladytron CD.
Congratulations!
Thanks for the awesome giveaway. If I won, I would buy the Settlers of Catan game. Our neighbors have it, and it is so much fun. I would love one for our family too. Happy Anniversary!
I added a link to your giveaway on my blog at www(dot)aparkerfam(dot)blogspot(dot)com. Oh, and now I'm debating about using that gift card towards a video camera, since we don't have one. :( but I'd have to save up some more money first, because $40 won't buy a camera! :)
What a sweet story Angie, congratulations and Happy Anniversary! I finally got to visit Hawaii in 2006 and it was wonderful! We stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village..you have to see this place..google it, it's beautiful!
I would spend the $40 on clothes since I am going back to college in August. (hopefully if my pell grant goes through)
Have a nice evening! Kristi
Hi there!! First of all, let me say "Happy Anniversary" to you! You definitely deserve a trip to Hawaii and I am so jealous!! Secondly, I found your blog the other day and love it!! You have some great info and links to some super cute shops!!
I would love to enter your Amazon contest! I would love to say that I would use the gift card to buy something that makes me sound intellectual like a book....but that would be a lie. I am guilty of loving all things girly, so knowing me, I would buy a cute pair of earrings! :-)
Thanks so much for the opportunity to enter, and again....Happy Anniversary to you!!
I also just signed up to become a subscriber through Feedblitz!
I have also left a post on my blog about your contest! Thanks again!!

If I won I would buy 4 Harry Potter books I'm missing in my collection. I've read them all but have never owned them all myself. I have 3 of them that I've found in wonderful used book stores and I'd love to complete my collection with an Amazon gift card!
Happy Anniversary!
Let's see, with an amazon gift card I would probably buy myself a romantic comedy--something like Good Luck Chuck or as I've already prepaid for the new Twilight book that is coming out in August... probably a few romance novels. I read those voraciously.
And after I bought what I wanted, I'd probably buy my mother something as she's always doing nice things for me. She likes movies too, and that way I could enjoy another movie and spend an evening in drinking tea and eating popcorn with my mom.
happy anniversary; I subscribed to your blog using FeedBlitz.

Happy Anniversary; what a lovely happy family!
I think if I won, I would hand it over to my son who is probably about the same age as yours!
You see, if he doesn't acquire every retro video game on the market, he claims he will not be happy. If he DOES acquire them, he will never ask for anything ever again!

Thank You!
I know what I would do , buy more books ! I just purchased two more this week off of Amazon !!
