If I handed you $50 bucks...

[lauren grier]

what would you use it for/spend it on ? It's easy to fantasize about like a million dollars or whatever.. but really..... what would you do with 50?

[chastml]

I'd probably go out to eat. I spend most of extra money I have on food. If it were $200, I'd buy a new camera, because I really need one of those.

[Jennilyn]

I'd save it towards the DSi my DD really wants for Christmas. She thinks Santa will bring her whatever she asks for and I can't tell her we're the ones that have to buy it.

[Tracyfish]

Since I joined a gym on Friday, I would have to say workout clothes. I have quickly realized that the clothes I workout in at home are not really gym appropriate (ex: pajamas) LOL!

[AmberK]

I would try and put a small dent in my huge WL here!!!!!

OR I would put in in savings and save it for my new wardrobe that Im going to need when I lose all of the weight I need to lose!

[KyRainbow]

Hmm.....I would probably use it on scrap stuff. There are some photo actions I'm drooling over, not to mention all the gorgeousness in the SSD shoppe, lol

[MandaT]

This week, I'd probably buy diapers & a few groceries.

[MamaBee]

I would use it toward a new bedding set for our bedroom... the last two sets I have came from yard sales... I want something brand new!

lol yes.. i learned that lesson when i started running last year. i was like hm. this is not attractive. LOL

[pewtertm]

Well, Rachel's birthday is coming up and she is really wanting a Rapunzel dress from the Disney store...so I might go with that.

Or I'd make a little dent in my ginormous wish list. LOL

[Keely~B]

Nothing fun, I'd put it towards a bill. Sometimes I hate being so responsible

[heathergw]

I'd buy some stuff in my SSD wishlist... which is full of La goodies right now

[lovely1m]

My son's birthday cake. His birthday is this month and the cake is the most important part for him, so thats what we are splurging a bit on this year.

[Jengerbread88]

Yarn for my new knitting hobby, as well as some paint for my room...

[mrs_jb]

I would get a haircut... my hair needs trimmed BADLY, but I can't stomach spending the money right now! Ugh!

[Misty Cato]

Fall/winter clothes for the kids, latte for me.

[Jenn Barrette]

A day to myself, get the in-laws to watch the kids, get a few new songs for my iPod, chill in a coffeeshop with a new book, fancy coffee drink, and dessert, walk around town, maybe pick up some new make-up, and then go out to dinner.

[emmasmommy]

clothes for myself. i have no winter stuffs.

[junebug]

hmm....scrap stuff....or i'd go to Hobby Lobby and get hybrid supplies.....or hit the clearance racks at the mall! woot!

[tuneskids]

I would by myself some clothes, since I down to owning one pair of jeans, two pairs of baggy track pants, and three T-shirts. Yup, I do laundry all the time. I can't help it if I wear stuff out before I replace them. hehehe
It's too cold for capris now, so I need new clothes.

[Libby Pritchett]

I'd send it in to the furniture store. I just got a new couch, and I need to have it paid off in 6 months to avoid interest. LOL

oh that reminds me. maybe i'd use it as my layaway down payment for the matching love seat to my new couch we got last month lol.

[scrapperjade]

I'm not sure... Dh's grandparents just sent us $50 to put toward whatever and it's been sitting here staring at me for a week, lol.

We just replaced all our windows & our patio door, so we should put it towards that I guess, lol. OR maybe a manicure for me - I've kicked me 20 year nail biting habit and I think I deserve it!!

This. My hair has not been trimmed since December.

[Lyd]

Hmm. Probably scrappy stuffs or Kindle books. But, you never know. Sometimes a whim hits me and I'll do something weird.

[heathergw]

OK, I take back what I said... unfortunately I need to buy some maternity jeans that fit me... my rear end and belly are much bigger than past pregnancies, sigh...

[lovely1m]

Mine either! Which is no big deal when my hair is long, but since I am trying to keep it medium length, its kinda problem. But I have so many more things to do.

[nun69]

personally I really need to get my hair cut and colored {which is usually around $75}...but right now I would put it towards an outfit for my DD's 1st day of school...she is a senior this year!

[jessica31876]

use it to go out with my husband for a real dinner out. We occasionally get a few extra bucks to go to say Mcdonalds or something equivalant but have not been to a nicer restaurant in at least a year

[CA Dreamer]

This is soooo me too, right now!

[suladesign]

Probably sounds cheesy, but I'm sure I'd spend most of it here at SSD (my wish list simply is just too long, lol). Another photobook might be another option.

ETA: seriously, I catch myself standing in the snack aisle of our store and trying to decide - snack or another kit from SSD? Is that weird or what? On the other hand - that sometimes does help me keep my snacking balanced, since I'm on a tight budget!

This is exactly what I was going to say!

[breakingbrie]

If it was to be spent on me, like here-buy something for yourself, I'd buy a new pair of pants! I've got 1 pr of jeans, and 1 pr of cords---which are brosn and don't match a whole lot and also suck to wear in the summer!!! If it was just like- hey have $50... it'd probably go to bills.

[amandabarugh]

Easy. I'd buy yarn, a nice silk blend.

[taracotta7]

I would either spend it on my WL or use it to print off some layouts.

[lauren grier]

lol i'm glad i'm not the only one who spends extra $$ on food... I worked for my aunt the other day- and as I was leaving she handed me 50.... I went to the market

[laurabobaura]

$40 into the gas tank, $10 at starbucks

[laurabobaura]

la- normally, that'd be me too. i need gas right now more than i need food. i have a meal plan til like next friday....

[Sharon Kay]

I would use it towards a plane ticket to go see my mom in Arizona ... I miss her a lot! She just moved out there in April. Tickets to Phoenix are so expensive ... $50 would definitely make it a bit lighter on the pocketbook.

[Leila]

I'd hand it over to Andrew so he'd have enough money for his trip to NYC this week for a job interview.

[Gemma]

Put it towards a train ticket to Liverpool!

[Gabbina]

Clothes!! Winter clothes are my fav... And I'm thinking about getting a new pair of boots too.

[Joy2Scrapbook]

It would be very tempting to spend it on my WL. It's quite long right now--ah there's always something to look forward to with scrap stuff.

[neenee]

This Bob Marley tee and the Photography tee from Clickin Moms.

[Andrea Gourley]

I want a pair of Ugg boots. $50 dollars when converted to £ would probably buy me the sole of one boot

Or some more Copic markers

A laptop bag

A few tunes for my iPod

An umbrella and a pair of wellies might be sensible as I am just sat watching the weather forecast for England

[Lauramarie]

$50 handed to me right now I would use it on groceries for the week.

[litabells]

Hmmm...if I was being responsible I'd add it to my new glasses fund, since that just got destroyed having to buy new clothes and shoes for the kidlets. But if I could be frivolous with it...I'd buy yarn and a pile of second hand bookd

[SweetMelissa]

I would buy baby clothes now that we know its a girl!

[ariesfl326]

I'd probably use it to pay down my credit card I use each week to buy myself digi goodies.

[Stacey42]

Books.

That's what I spend all 'found' money on. Unless I have my eye on some yarn for a special project.
