    I would put the gift cards towards some a tablet or ereader that my special needs son could use at home. He has access to an ipad at school and it helps a lot.

    I could definately use that gift card for a new camera to captivate all our family's christmas memories.

    I would use the $50 towards a tablet or new laptop. Our current laptop is literally being held together with duct tape. The sound went out on it a long time ago, so Im no longer able to Skype.My whole family is in Florida, so the computer is our easiest and cheapest mean of communication everyday. If we got a new laptop or tablet, we would be able to skype again!!

    We really need a new TV - ours is cracked and barely works. Maybe we could put it towards one!

    Love these giveaways. I could seriously use a new key board!!
  12. Lisa Singleton Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I would give it to my husband as well. Im just like Amanda, we are only buying for the kids as we cant afford to get each other something this year.

    I would use the $50 gift card towards a new camera as ours just blew and would love to capture my daughters first Xmas and her first birthday Jan 1st!
  14. Agnes Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I recently purchase a DSLR camera to take pictures of my baby girl. However, it's impossible to take a family picture as either myself or my husband has to take the picture. I would use the $50 to buy a tripod!

    I would love to use the gc towards a ereader... :D (a little Christmas present for me!) but I would honestly probably use it for something for the kids! :D I'm sure they would love a new wii game... :)
  16. Steff Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I would probably put it towards an external hard drive to ensure there is a backup up of our thousands of pictures of our kids. Would be devastating if we lost them ...
  17. Shannon Fraser Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I would use the gift card towards a new cell phone as mine has almost bit the dust!

    Yay! I would use the $50 towards a new lens for my camera. But, there are SOOO many things I could put it towards for myself, my hubby or my kids. Love it! Thanks!
  20. Amy Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    A tough choice.... either gear for my camera, a couple of games for the kids' Wii, or another iPod.... hmmmm.... :)
  21. Angie Dennique Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply

    I desperately need to bring my father in law into the world of technologie. Would look at buying him a tablet!
  26. Andrea S Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I would use the $50 Gift Card towards a dock for my iPod. I only have really terrible little speakers at the moment, and for our living room dance parties we need something better!!
  27. Ally Hudder Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    Accessories for my camera to take photos of our precious little bundle of joy when he/she arrives in May!

    I would put it towards an IPAD or a tablet for my son who is autistic and really would benefit from one of these.

  34. Crystal Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    With two little boys 2.5 and 4 growing up so fast we could really use the card to put towards a video camera. So we can record our special memories! :)
  35. Dave LaFreniere Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I would get my mom a ipad keyboard. She just can't seem to get that screen touching thing :)
  36. Colleen C Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I liked both pages and would be investing in a cover for my Dad's new tablet PC.
    • Colleen C Tuesday - 11 / 12 / 2012 Reply
      I wanted to say, I think that keyboard rocks, by the way! Dad is getting a new Playbook - I think that keyboard would go well with it - I'm not sure he will get the hang of the touchscreen for typing!
  37. Deb H Wednesday - 12 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    Hi would give the gift card to my hubby. He is always so hard to buy for but he is a tech lover. He would absolutely love all of the prizes in this package. (liked both pages)
  38. SUMMER PLEWES Wednesday - 12 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I already like them both on facebook. I would use the gift card for a new game for my son.
  39. Melody Lachance Wednesday - 12 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    There is so much to choose from, that I know that I would not have any trouble using this gift card. I would wait to see what was the most needed at the time.

    All my husband wants for Christmas is a wireless headset so when he wants to watch formula one, he doesn't drive everyone else crazy :)
  41. Rebecca Cullen Wednesday - 12 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I would put it towards a tv for my husband for Christmas. It's what he really wants but so expensive otherwise!!
  42. Karla H Wednesday - 12 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I would use it towards a new desktop computer. My daughter would like to play computer games and it is too hard for her on my old laptop!
  43. Sara Wednesday - 12 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    Movies!!
  44. Lynda Thursday - 13 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    would use the gift card to help in purchasing a VHS converter so I can preserve all our family home movie memories and convert them to CD. Thanks for the chance to win and Merry Christmas everyone!

    I would probably give the gift card to my hubby for christmas because I know there are a lot of things there he would really like! Or we could use it together for something for us both to enjoy :)
  46. Melissa Saturday - 15 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    My laptop is on the fritz. It's my lifeline and I know I'll need a new one sooner than later. A future shop gift card would get me one step closer :o) Thanks!!!

    An IPad for the family. The laptop has just about had it.
  48. Cheryl Pinkham Sunday - 16 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    With my second son going off to University next year I'm thinking I would use it toward a lap top for him.
