A few weeks ago, I shared this:
Some of my favorite gift ideas for those pursuing a debt free lifestyle. As promised, I begin rolling out give aways this week, a little Christmas present from me to you!
Today, I’m so excited to host a simple and practical Give Away, sponsored by no one but yours truly. 🙂 I’m giving away a $50 Amazon Gift Card for you and yours to use to celebrate this Christmas season or perhaps into the new year. I LOVE a good Amazon gift card. From the practical to the unusual splurge, seeing that little Amazon face sets my heart a flutter.
More this year than before I’ve used Amazon Subscribe & Save to purchase our household items. If I do it right, sometimes I can score a better deal online than I can in stores and with coupons. Typically I begin by scanning Amazon’s coupons (did you know that Amazon has coupons?!) for items that we routinely purchase. After clipping the coupons, I begin to scan which items are also Subscribe & Save items. Typically many of the most popular coupons are ones that can be paired with Subscribe & Save deals, because the deal bloggers have picked up the scent of the trail. Once I match a coupon to a Subscribe & Save deal, I click to subscribe. This will save you 5% off of the list price. I aim for five Subscribe & Save items because that will drop the price of each item by 15%. The discount will be reflected on all five after you meet the minimum. Each item beyond five will also be a 15% savings on list price. The items will ship once a month on an assigned date. After they ship, you want to be sure to cancel the subscription. Subscribe & Save prices are not locked in at the same rate each month, so you don’t want it to inadvertently ship at a much higher rate.
It’s a perfect opportunity to give the gift of better managed money this year. Enter using the Rafflecopter below. The Give Away closes 12/23/13 at 12 AM EST. You’ll have 24 hours to respond after winning so be sure to be watching your inbox and even check your SPAM. I cannot guarantee that the gift card will arrive in time for Christmas so don’t count on it for a specific gift. 🙂

Yay! I love Amazon – it’s where I buy my books!
I would buy a few cookbooks I’ve had my eye on…
90% of my Christmas shopping is from Amazon!
What a great contest idea! Thank you!
Amazon was where I finished up my Christmas shopping! Getting all the Amazon boxes in and opening them was like Christmas for me! lol
We also do lots of our shopping on amazon
This would make the invetiable last minute shopping a bit easier to get through!
Cool I like Amazon especially daily deals and books.
I like to save up Amazon gift cards – that’s the best thing about Amazon. I can get it, set it aside, and use it when I find something.
I would use it to buy clothes for my ever-growing, teenage son.
Amazon is where I buy all my movies.
I bought almost all of my Christmas presents on Amazon this year, love them!
I’d buy myself a Furby…
I would use this for my daughter, get her some great books!
I love Amazon! I hope I win!!
Well I’d love to gift a bunch of kindle books to my grandma, if she could only remember her password. Otherwise I bet I’d spend it on fun homeschool stuff.
Oooooo….pick me! pick me! I need to stock up on rechargeable batteries and a new battery for my cell phone!
I would use it to get my niece a birthday present. I know she wants a Furby.
As a mom with a newborn, I am definitely in need of the gift certificate! The diapers are cheaper on Amazon! (and I use Amazon Mom so saves me even MORE money! yay!)
I have a wishlist growing on Amazon… 🙂
Thank you for the opportunity to win!
We did Christmas with amazon and have birthdays coming up!
pick me!
Love Amazon! I’ve got my eye on the Call the Midwife series.
Amazon–can get anything there 🙂
I love Amazon’s universal wish list!
I would use it to buy a Winter jacket! I only have a few hoodies and they’re not warm enough.
I would buy whatever my husband says it is that we need to fix our old computer with all of our old pictures on it, so that we can share those pictures with family. Thanks for the entry!
Supplements and vitamins
I might re-gift it, although I would reveal the source. During Dave Ramsey’s give-away this month where the winner got to choose someone else to bless with matching funds, I had someone in mind–unfortunately neither of us got a call from Dave.
I would use it for my son’s birthday which is 3 weeks after Christmas
This would go toward books…lots and lots of books…orrrr…I might just put it into my Kindle Fire fund…oooh, yes, my Kindle Fire fund…
I did not realize this about amazon subscribe & save. Thanks!! I would use the gift card to buy gifts for my daughter.
I would probably gift the card to my amazing in-laws. They’re always looking for something on Amazon. 🙂
As a mom and a teacher, i practically live on Amazon! =)
I’d probably give it as a gift. I’m SO FAR BEHIND on shopping. (hangs head in shame)
I would get something nice for my sister, her birthday is coming up
I’d gift this to my brother. He’s had a rough couple of months – was recently in the hospital unexpectedly (no health insurance), and then had to put down his beloved canine baby earlier this week. He can’t afford Christmas gifts this year and I’d love to surprise him with this!
I would probably get something I needed. Maybe I’d use that subscribe and save and buy some diapers/wipes.
Thanks to you we are saving $ with Subcribe & Save every month!
i would buy a case for my tablet
I would buy some of the gear we need for our trip to Yellowstone next summer!
Amazon is great made holiday shopping a little less hectic too!

I would give this card to my mom. She loves Amazon!
I’d buy books and CD’s.
I am saving to buy a new laptop. Mine died in April and I really miss it. I am going to have to check out these subscribe and save deals. I hadn’t heard of such a thing.
Amazon has become my new place to shop for a variety of items. So easy.
I’d get something off of my husband’s wishlist for Christmas
