Get your wish granted!

I’ve heard so much buzz over Sears and Kmart offering $500 gift cards as contest prizes and I’ve been just a little green with envy since I was such a loser and never entered myself. Ok, I know that’s not a great thing so of course I’m always super happy to hear of people winning but.. yeah! I’d love to have a chance myself, you know?

Well I found one last chance over at Ted Murphy’s blog. He’s been in that giving spirit, donating a great deal to Habitat for Humanity using a $500 gift from Sears, and now he’s offering a chance for someone else to win one of 3 packages worth $500 from Sears.com. Not interested in those? You can even create your own prize!

I got to thinking about what I would get if I had a chance to use $500 at Sears.com and most of it ended up being for the hubby and kids, as always. That’s not actually a bad thing because I honestly would be over the moon if I won what I asked for. It would probably give me more joy to give to them than buying anything for myself. I’m a giver to a fault, doing so even when I really can’t afford it most of the time.

So, what would I pick?

FurReal My Lovin’ Pup – Biscuit

In the end I would have an entire 1.07 left. Woo! What a rush that would be. Not that it would likely ever happen, but still. :) It’s fun to dream, right?

  1. Who?

    Erica. 29, unhappily approaching the big 3-0, mom to a 4 and 6 yr old & a miniature schnauzer, married (almost 9 yrs), military wife, lover of all things that are bad for me. I love to take pictures, adore reading, enjoy cooking. But I never have time for any of that it seems.


    Powering through our first deployment in 6 years, trying to balance this new "single mom" life with kids, missing my mister muchly.


    I've been blogging for around 10 years here, there and everywhere. I love writing about what I LOVE and a lot of times about what I'm not too thrilled about. Trying to focus more on the love though. ;)

    I'm always open to reviews or helping promote things that I am interested in. Feel free to contact me via email.
