I mailed my taxes on Tuesday. Nothing like waiting until the last minute, huh? Since some of you may be finishing up the paperwork, or may be glum about the paperwork you just mailed, I’m hoping this week’s giveaway will cheer you up.
And if not, maybe my upcoming Swagbucks announcement (more on that below) will do the trick.
What could you do with a $20 Amazon gift card? All sorts of things, from quinoa to sex toys.
Maybe you’ll want to get your copy of Dana Stabenow’s new book, “Bad Blood.” Maybe you’ll order a year’s worth of grownup gummy vitamins. Or headlamps, or zombie T-shirts, or parts for that old car you’re restoring.
Not my business. Once you win it, it’s yours to spend any way you like.

And on a completely unrelated note: If you were thinking of joining Swagbucks with my referral link, don’t do it today. Some time this weekend I will put up a post that includes a code for a 100-SB signup bonus. Stay tuned.
Sure could use this! I’ve got something in my wish list and I just got a $25 amazon gift card for taking surveys. Still need more to get it.

Love your articles! =) How about some Alaskan-specific frugal living? That would be cool!
Follow on FB. Love Amazon !!
I am not sure how I feel about seeing quinoa and sex toys in the same sentence…
Could be worse: I originally wrote “gummy bears and sex toys.” Eeewwww…..
I’ve recently purchased from Amazon a dvd that my library didn’t have. I’d love to win a gift card!
Facebook too.

LOVE #19’s comment.
efiled my taxes 4/1. Should have my refund (saving for a trip) any day.
In the UK our financial year ends on 5th April, but I would still be excited to win an Amazon gift card! I should be getting a small refund this year because we are charged tax as if we will be working for the entire year, but I only worked for six months before starting my graduate degree.
What will I spend my refund on? Probably just my Emergency Fund/house deposit savings. I lead a thrilling (but vaguely financially stable!) life.. 🙂
Also, I do follow you on FB!
Also also, I am an e-mail subscriber. 🙂
Saving up for two special items on Amazon, so winning this would be wonderful! Thank you!

I’d love to get a couple of items on my wish list. I keep earning those $5 cards from swagbucks but a $20 card would shrink the list a lot faster.
Thanks so much! Would love to get some books for summer reading.
