If I had $500 to spend for Valentine's Day



edited - post deleted.

Waaa. I didn't win the contest, therefore I have deleted my post for the contest. Not that I'm a sore loser or anything. Of course if the judges were wise and had declared me the winner, my entry post would have lived on in internet infamy and would driven tons and tons of traffic to their couponing website for an infinite amount of time. Oh well, it wasn't meant to be. Their loss. And mine. A classic lose lose situation.

Ok, I will tell you but you have to promise to keep it a secret. I can't have this leaking out to just anybody. When entering a contest where you have to fill out an entry form, I fold the entry like an accordion. It's not a 100% guaranteed win, but I've been lucky with it. That's how I won $100 back in April 2011.

Thank you so much! There is a dog/cat food drive at my school, each can/bag you bring in gets you an entry to win. So far, I have brought in 20 cans, so i had to fill out 20 entry slips. However, the lady accidently gave me 22 so heck yeah =) I folded nearly all of them in an accordion (she helped fold some too). I hope to bring in 20 more at least by the end of the contest. Thanks for the tip!!

I'm one of your yard saling friends, and since I yard sale to help save my family some money, you could use one of your gift cards to take me out for a delicious crab cake lunch - after we score some deals at the yard sales and your favorite thrift store! Sound like a plan? You bring the gift card, and I'll bring my finds of the day! Good luck!

Had to smile when I saw the cake and love how you would spend the $500 but I don't see much in there for you. After all isn't it you who chases all over to find the wonderful things you sell to augment your husbands salary? Good luck!
