August 25, 2008

#1 - Jamie @ 2:44 pm

I’d love to win this and would splurge and get a spa pedicure for mah tootsies.

#2 - Beth @ 2:45 pm

I would totally get a massage-just had a baby and need a little relaxation!!

#3 - HeresTheDiehl @ 2:47 pm

I would definitely get a massage, like commenter #2! It’s just the most relaxing thing I can think of, and not something that I get to do very often!

#4 - stephanie @ 2:50 pm

If I won, I would spend it on scrapbook supplies. :)

#5 - A Cowboy's Wife @ 2:50 pm

Just some good ol’ fashioned shopping would rejuvenate me!

Of course, that foot bath looks pretty good too!

Good luck to all:)

#6 - Sarah at themommylogues @ 2:51 pm

I would spend it quickly. Because gift cards burn a whole in my pocket. Either clothes or shoes or something from Sephora.

#7 - The Gang's All Here! @ 2:52 pm

Retail therapy would really rejuvenate me - I’m thinking pretty jeans or a couple new sweaters for fall (I’m a frugal shopper, I might even be able to score both!). And I’d have NO END of use for those paper products. 5 kids make a big mess :)

#8 - Melissa @ 2:52 pm

I think a facial would be fabulous! ;o)

#9 - jessicasheets.com @ 2:53 pm

Man, we are on such a tight budget to get out of debt, but I really want a massage or at least a pedicure! This gift card would be a good, guilt-free way for this to happen!

#10 - Cathy @ 2:54 pm

I would get a good book and sit in my favorite coffee shop and read and drink mochas with a shot of banana.

#11 - LorelaiCC aka C.C. Almon @ 2:54 pm

A massage or a pedicure, either one would be awesome!

#12 - nicole @ 2:56 pm

What a great resource…totally checking it out. If I won, I’d go get a pedicure. I. Love. Them. Thanks for the fun giveaway! ;)

#13 - Maggie @ 3:01 pm

I would spoil myself with a manicure and pedicure. Not too exciting, but I think that sounds just heavenly!

I love a nice pedicure or even splurging on hair color!

#15 - TinaJewel @ 3:04 pm

I would use it to get a chiroprator treatment or massage!

#16 - Rebekah at babiesabroad @ 3:11 pm

I would defintaely put it toward a hot stone massage! There’s nothing more rejuvinating to me than a massage!

#17 - jenna @ 3:15 pm

I’d take my husband out for dinner and a movie. I am more rejuvenated when I get to have some “alone” time with him. :)

#18 - brandiandboys @ 3:16 pm

a facial… those are my favorite “me time” splurge!

#19 - Adrienne @ 3:17 pm

This would be great for a massage after the new baby comes…she should be here before the winners are picked. A toddler and a new born some rejuvination time would be great.

#20 - LisaAnniePants @ 3:18 pm

I would get my hair done. I love having someone else shampoo my hair :)

#21 - Amy @ Thoughts from the Mrs @ 3:18 pm

Yay for another great giveaway. :)
If I won, I would use the money toward taking my best girl friends on a Girl’s Night Out. Maybe even put it toward a hotel room for a slumber party. Since I became a Mom, these sort of things just don’t happen and this would be the most rejuvenating idea to me.

#22 - Jay @ 3:22 pm

I’d get a massage!!

#23 - Rachel V. @ 3:22 pm

Oh my! I’ve neglected getting a pedicure all summer…I sure would love to win. And get my feet rejuvenated would be tops on my list.

A pedicure, a facial, a massage. Such bliss!

#25 - Heather J. @ 3:26 pm

Oh, I’d LOVE a pedicure! And maybe a trip to the bookstore next door? Or I could use it ALL up at the Baltimore Book Festival at the end of Sept - THAT’S my idea of rejuvenation!

#26 - Marcia "HDMac" McFarlane @ 3:27 pm

What a wonderful giveaway! Thank you!!!! Hmmm, $50 for rejuvenating…. Maybe aromatherapy and pedicure items. That sounds good to me! :)

Thanks again!

#27 - trish @ 3:27 pm

I would use the 50.00 to buy some of the handmade items that i love on etsy!

#28 - Sky @ 3:28 pm

Oh, I know what would just perk me right up…a new purse! I’ve been eyeing one for a while…I’d be a whole new lady! LOL

seeryusfam@msn.com

#29 - Brooke @ 3:32 pm

I wonder if I could get a haircut AND a massage… probably not :)

#30 - photomommy @ 3:34 pm

Manicure or massage for me! :)

#31 - Angie @ 3:34 pm

Great giveaway. I would put the gift card towards a spa day on our upcoming Jamaican vacation. Ahhhh please let me win LOL

#32 - Stephanie @ 3:38 pm

If I were to win, I would use the card for a Mother/Daughter Day at the Spa to get a pedicure and a manicure!

#33 - Catherine @ 3:40 pm

I would get a new haircut and manicure (I’ve never had one)

#34 - Celeste @ 3:42 pm

A nice day off at the coast with my hubby and littles sounds just about perfect right now!

#35 - Jenn @ 3:42 pm

I would definitely treat myself to a spa day! Hubby promised one after the birth of our first child…we have two kids now…the oldest is 4. LOL

#36 - DJ @ 3:42 pm

I would buy some seeds to start my garden.

#37 - Jenn @ 3:43 pm

(Promised one that I never got) haha

#38 - Sundi D. Hayes @ 3:46 pm

My son recently told me he wanted to try a yoga class! A little out of the box for a 10-year-old but it would be great mom/son bonding time without his younger twin siblings around! I checked into it…$50 would get us both a beginner class for 5 weeks - talk about great ROI! Keeping my fingers crossed. Plus, my birthday is the same week of the winner’s announcement!

#39 - Christina @ 3:46 pm

Oh please enter me! I would love to win. I would go get a massage. Homeschooling is proving to be quite challenging! LOL Thanks!

#40 - Sara @ 3:50 pm

Of course I’d get a mani and a pedi!

#41 - Tobi @ 4:08 pm

I would get a pedicure! Summer is brutal on the feet!

#43 - Jennifer Brewer @ 4:08 pm

great giveaway! i think i’d get a massage. i ould really use one! :) thanks!

#44 - Amy @ 4:10 pm

Pedicure, definitely!!! Either that or a prenatal massage - I am 7 months pregnant and need one! Especially after a fall last night that’s left me bruised & sore! Don’t worry, baby’s ok!

#45 - Mrs. H @ 4:10 pm

Oh, a massage, for sure. I’ve only had one in my life. It sure was a treat!

#49 - Jen-The Mom @ 4:23 pm

Great contest, thanks for the chance! If I won, I’d treat myself and my mom to a nice pedicure!! (My poor toes are still reeling from our camping trip weeks back!)

#50 - Melissa @ 4:28 pm

I just was in a car accident…. my muscles are so sore so I would use the gift card for a massage!

#51 - Andrea @ 4:29 pm

I would love to win! And, if I got that gift card, I’d rejuvenate with a massage!! Thanks for the offer!!

#52 - Meg Munson @ 4:32 pm

Great contest and I would LOVE to win!!! I would treat myself to a nice massage:)

#53 - Jen B @ 4:36 pm

I’d go for a pedicure. I have been wanting one for so long, just don’t have the extra time or money!

Hmmm. . . maybe new makeup!!! :) Thanks for the contest!

#55 - Michelle @ 4:37 pm

well since the contest ends Sep 15th, and that is my sister’s birthday, I’d treat us both to a manicure!

Anji

#68 - tracey @ 5:08 pm

$50 to rejuvenate would take place at my hair salon with an iced cappuccino in my hand… Ohhhh yeah….

Frugal Carol

#79 - kelli @ 5:56 pm

What a GREAT webstite! It’s now tucked into my favorites :)

If I were to win? I would totally give the card to my husband and let him choose. he works from home AND takes care of the kids AND takes care of me.

That man needs some rejuvenating!

#80 - Sherry @ 6:05 pm

#81 - Noreen @ 6:13 pm

I would go out to dinner and either dancing or a musical with my husband

#82 - brandy @ 6:38 pm

i would get my nails done and a pedicure. just an hour away from the kids is great. we can always use use towels, exspecially since we go through them so fast and can’t afford them

I would head straight to the bookstore!!

#84 - Forgetfulone @ 6:42 pm

A $50 gift card would be great to take my family out for dinner after a long, hard week of school and work. We have a family of six, so all of us going out to dinner together isn’t always possible financially.

#85 - Kristen M. @ 6:47 pm

Would it be selfish to spend it on myself? I would leave the kids with my hubby then sneak off to a museum or attraction that no one else in the family cares about.

#86 - Stacey @ Happy Are We @ 6:47 pm

Ooooh, my birthday is September 12th, so this is good timing! ;) I would really love a nice date night with my husband. It has been a long summer with 5 kids at home - I’d like some adult time with him. :)

A manicure for me and a friend! Why not share the love?

#92 - Kristen @ 7:42 pm

I would get a babysitter for my daughter and get a massage!!!

#93 - Liz C. @ 7:46 pm

I would love to spend a day at the spa. Summer vacation was a very busy time and it’d be nice to really relax once the kids go back to school.

#94 - Ally @ 7:50 pm

I would hire my little sister to watch the kids at my parents house… Go to Bath & Body Works, come home and fill up the tub, relax and read a good book after that I would have my Dear Husband give me a pedicure. I would clean up all of the mess from the pedicure with the years supply of papertowels (which would be AWESOME!!!)
Thanks for entering me!!

#102 - Richelle F @ 8:16 pm

I would love a pregnancy massage!

#103 - Rebecca @ 8:25 pm

I would take my husband out to dinner. We’ve had a very stressful last few months as we’ve waited to adopt a baby and I think we could use a little bit of time out together!

#104 - PsychMamma @ 8:29 pm

I think a massage would be in order, but any sort of self-pampering would be a treat. I could also get into splurging on some pampering products from Origins or somewhere similar.

Thanks for a great giveaway!

#105 - Rona @ 8:29 pm

I would treat myself to a spa manicure and lunch.

#106 - Natalie Jane @ 8:30 pm

Hum…I would hired a babysitter for the day and breathe some toddler free air.

#107 - Jackie @ where the boys are @ 8:32 pm

I’m thinking a manicure and a pedicure would cure a world of ills.

#108 - Amy @ 8:40 pm

I would have my hair cut, styled, and highlighted. I know this would cost more than $50, but hey, I’m worth it!

#109 - Tracy B @ 8:47 pm

If I won I would take myself to get my hair, nails and feet done!

#110 - Stacie Ruyle @ 8:58 pm

Wow! I could really use this. My family goes through so much TP. I’d use the gift card for gas or groceries. Sad, isn’t it?

#111 - Sarah VM @ 8:58 pm

I would put it towards a highlight!

Thanks!

#112 - Elaine @ 9:00 pm

Well if we must use it to rejuvenate I guess I could use it towards a massage (and that is TOTALLY cool with me!) ; ) Thanks for the chance!

#113 - Fresh Girl @ 9:12 pm

I’d rejuvenate with some new Mary Kay skin care products!

#114 - Lisa @ JujuBoo @ 9:14 pm

Count me in.

I would rejuvenate by getting my hair done. I love to lay back and relax while getting my hair washed. And nothing makes me feel better than a haircut and style fresh from the salon :)

#115 - zukppr @ 9:14 pm

I think I’d treat myself to a mani/pedi :)

#116 - Heather @ 9:18 pm

If I won I would get a pedicure or a massage…Oh to choose…

#117 - Michele @ 9:43 pm

OH I’d love an extra $50 around the house these days. I might get some highights in this dark hair of mine or something fun.

#118 - Michelle Rosborough @ 9:46 pm

#125 - Bailey's Leaf @ 10:26 pm

I would like to put the 50.00 towards installing tile at my front door. Currently, carpet goes all the way to the door and using it in the winter is not really possible because of it.

#126 - Sara @ 10:34 pm

$50? To spend all on me? Hmmm, probably books, or maybe clothes that NO ONE ELSE HAS WORN YET!!! Even if I could only get one pair of jeans or one sweater…maybe some nice smelling lotions or new nail polish for me and our daughter. She loves to do our nails together, and we only have summer colors of the 60 second drying kind…have to have that with a 3 year old…but I really could make $50 go far…even to pamper myself! :)

#127 - Valerie Fischer @ 10:39 pm

A SPA pedicure. Oh yeah. And some gelato if there was any money left over…;)

Thanks for the fun giveaway!

#128 - Krista @ 10:41 pm

Definitely a massage!!! I haven’t had one in way too long! I would looove one!

#129 - Mikki @ 11:01 pm

Oh my!! Count me in.
If I were to win $50, I would go and get a pedicure and a manicure.. with a yummy cup of coffee in hand ( switching of hands of course while getting the manicure). I haven’t done that in a LONG time.

#130 - TopazTook @ 11:04 pm

A spa recently opened down the street offering $40 massages. The extra $10 could always go for chocolate. :)

#131 - Amy @ parkcitygirl @ 11:10 pm

Oh I would get a facial, or pedicure. . . not sure :)

#132 - Justine F. @ 11:15 pm

I hear the spa calling my name!!!!

#133 - Diana @ 11:21 pm

Money is tight for us right now. It would probably go towards Christmas. :D

I would love to win this!

If I won the $50 visa card, I’d take it and buy our family a year pass to the Chattanooga Zoo which is just $45 for a family pass! and it gives us free entrance to the Knoxville Zoo and many others or discount ticket prices to others.

#135 - Janis Soule @ 11:24 pm

I would love to win this…I am torn between blowing it all on a massage for a one time day of relaxation or to put it toward our bedroom redecorating fund that will offer me years of relaxation (once it’s done!) lol

Janis

#136 - Melanie @ 11:32 pm

Some new clothes for me. I have one pair of jeans that fit, so I need to do a little shopping.

I would love to win the prize and I would treat myself to something wonderful. :)

#138 - stacey moore @ 11:48 pm

August 26, 2008

#140 - Playful Professional @ 12:04 am

I could definitely go for a massage with that Visa right now!

#141 - Blessed @ 12:09 am

I’d get a new pair of my favorite Docker’s shoes… they are so comfortable and my current pair is about 3 years old and starting to fall apart and not be so comfortable… guess that’s what happens when you wear the same pair of shoes almost every day for 3 years :)

#142 - NerdMom @ 12:24 am

I totally would get a mani/pedi for my birthday next month!

#143 - Natalie @ 12:32 am

Oh I’d love to win! I’d use the money toward a new pair of workout shoes. :) I haven’t had a new pair in over a year.

#144 - Sherra @ 12:49 am

Mani/pedi or massage…hmmm…I think massage will win if I win!!

#145 - Deb - Mom of 3 Girls @ 1:14 am

I think I would buy a new pair of jeans - I only have one pair that currently fits, and the cooler weather is coming sooner than I’d like… :)

#146 - Ashley @ 1:17 am

Probably new make-up. I NEVER but that, and if I do it’s always the cheapest I can find.

#147 - Heather Prenger @ 1:22 am

This giveaway would be great for my family, we are on a tight budget after recently opening our own business! I would love a manicure, I haven’t had one since my wedding!

#148 - kristine @ 1:40 am

i will buy as many arts and crafts magazines as I can find at Borders =)

I’d either get my hair cut, or go buy some clothes…anything to make me feel a little more stylish!

#150 - Kim @ 4:57 am

I would use it towards a luxurious massage!

#151 - Tina B. @ 5:03 am

#154 - Zoe @ 5:09 am

I need a new hairdo! That would be refreshing!

#155 - Tonya Keener @ 5:21 am

There is only one way to rejuvinate. A MASSAGE!!!!

#156 - Aisling @ 6:25 am

I’d treat myself to a manicure and a pedicure. Lovely!

#157 - Eleanor Twiss @ 6:44 am

A foot massage would be soooo rejuvenating!
