Box Tops & A $50 Giveaway Too!

Posted on November 12, 2008

The school that Madison is going to next year collects Box Tops.  If you don’t know what Box Tops is, let me explain.  There are a ton of items that you can buy that have the image to the left on the box.  You collect these for your local schools, and they get 10 cents for every one you turn in.  Now, that doesn’t sound like a lot, but when if you can get a bunch of people together, it adds up quickly.  Now, the school’s goal is to earn $750 from Box Tops.  Last year, they made $536, and I would love for them to meet their goal for this year (even though Madison is not even enrolled yet.  I understand that any extra money to the school with benefit her).  Now, there are several ways we can do this for our local schools.

First, you need to log into the Box Tops site and create an account.  You enter your state and your school or if you don’t know that, just enter your zip code.  I personally entered the school and state.  From there, you are able to see how your local school is going.  Now, how do you increase that number?  Well, you can collect box tops with that logo on it.  They also have a Marketplace.  Now, until recently, I did not know about the Marketplace.  This works so awesome too!  There is a list of stores that will give a percentage of whatever you buy from them back to the school.  There are stores like Avon, Gap, Kohls, Best Buy, Leap Frog, Target, and Walmart (this is just a couple of them — the whole listing is on the site).  All you have to do is log into the Box Tops Site, click on marketplace, then click on the store you want to shop it.  That’s it.  Once you checkout, the percentage you purchased will then be applied to your school.  If you are Christmas shopping online anyway, why not help out your local school (and if you don’t want to help any of them out, I’ll tell you the school we are sending our money too, and you can use them).

Did you know that Box Tops has donated more than $250 million to schools nationwide since 1996?  Would you like to help raise that number?  Then start collecting Box Tops and use their Marketplace to do your online shopping!  To help you get started, I am giving away a $50 gift card to Barnes & Noble (thank you Barnes & Noble for your support of such a great program!).  What do you have to do?

    I love Barnes and Noble. It is my sanctuary. The gift card would be great on two levels. First, the experience of shopping at Barnes and Noble is a delight for all the senses. I love feeling the soft chairs and the crisp paper as I get comfortable and browse. I love the smell of the coffee wafting through the air. When I get stressed or worried, I always head to Barnes and Noble and lose my thoughts in the stacks of books. Next, books are my favorite gift. I have always loved getting a new book and digging in.

  2. Erin Miller on November 12th, 2008 12:22 pm

    i want this because our children love to read and we are both out of work and can’t afford much for christmas this year

  3. Sonya Sparks on November 12th, 2008 12:28 pm

    I love any books store, but honestly Barnes and Noble is my favorite. My daughter and I could spend forever in there browsing. Thanks for the chance.

  4. Marilyn Wons on November 12th, 2008 12:30 pm

    I live near a Barnes and Noble and shop there weekly. I love to read! This gift card would sure help!

  5. Rebecca Snodgrass on November 12th, 2008 12:31 pm

    My daughter loves to read and this would make a great xmas gift for her.

  6. Jenn S. on November 12th, 2008 12:33 pm

    The whole family could spend all day browsing at Barnes and Noble. I am planning to buy some books for the kids for Christmas, this GC would come in handy.

    I love Barnes and Noble!! I am going through my first job hunt after college and there are some books I would love to get to help me out with the process!!!

  9. jenni on November 12th, 2008 12:45 pm

    My kids love to read! This would make a great gift!

  10. Jill L on November 12th, 2008 12:50 pm

    $50 would put a few extra books under the Christmas tree this year. My kids all love to read and I love to get them new books to really keep that interest going.

  11. Mia J. on November 12th, 2008 12:59 pm

    We read a lot in our family and this would be such a help to start the Christmas shopping.

  12. Renee on November 12th, 2008 1:00 pm

    I would love to do some Christmas shopping with this gift card!

  13. Jenifer M. on November 12th, 2008 1:05 pm

    Barnes and Nobles is like my own little rabbit hole. I can probably think of ten different books I’m itching all over to buy! Because Christmas is coming up, I’d really like to get something special for my little sister–it’s going to be a slow Christmas because of the economy right now.

    Thanks for this opportunity, I hope I win! :razz:

  14. Joe P on November 12th, 2008 1:07 pm

    Last friday was what we called “Black Friday” at my job. I was lucky and was not laid off but you never know. While I have three kids and we aren’t having a lot of presents, I’d like to make my entry go to this one (if I win, give it to her.. no idea who she is but I was thinking of my co-workers who are now out of jobs and the post broke my heart).

    If I win, pick the person who posted this:

    Erin Miller on November 12th, 2008 12:22 pm i want this because our children love to read and we are both out of work and can’t afford much for christmas this year.

    Thanks, Joe

  15. Jamie on November 12th, 2008 1:11 pm

    I love to read, and i also need to do some holiday shopping!

  16. Alicia Webster on November 12th, 2008 1:14 pm

    I am a stay-at-home mom of three children, who are all under the age of three. My husband works really hard to support this family of five, and I’d like to use the card to buy him a couple of books that he’d like. We don’t normally buy each other gifts, even at X-mas, (in the interest of saving money), so it would be a nice surprise.

  17. Matthew Meisenhelder on November 12th, 2008 1:17 pm

    because we moved away from a barnes and noble i always save up money and have a mini book shopping spree whenever we get to go.

    so this card can fund one of my spree’s !

  18. Jessica H. on November 12th, 2008 1:17 pm

  21. Carol on November 12th, 2008 1:38 pm

    I would dearly love to win this because we as a family are trying to decide on a vacation destination next year, and we want to research as much as possible before we commit to anywhere. The budget is important, so I would use this prize to buy travel guides and books.

  22. tanya Ramirez on November 12th, 2008 1:49 pm

    I would love to win this gift card. My daughter is in kindergarden this year and starting to learn to read. This gift card would really help me buy her some great childhood books for Christmas. She loves being read to every night and seeing words she can read on her own. Thank you for the chance.

  23. janeh on November 12th, 2008 1:49 pm

    Barnes and Noble is one of the places I always go for Holiday gift-shopping…….I’d love to have the gift card to supplement my budget!

    I love to read to my children and they can’t get enough. We go to the library often but there are so many books that we check out over and over again. I would love to purchase some of my children’s most favorites. Thanks for the giveaway!

  31. Margaret Smith on November 12th, 2008 2:30 pm

    We love Barnes & Noble. We’ve been teaching our kids how much fun reading can be and I would love to win this gift card for them. We love visiting our local store and I would love to bring our kids to be able to pick out a few books for each of them. Thanks so much for this wonderful giveaway.

  32. Gail Ballard on November 12th, 2008 2:31 pm

    I would rather read a good book than watch t.v. I love Barnes and Noble. :!:

  34. brandy tate on November 12th, 2008 2:36 pm

    My daughter loves to read and she reads EVERYTHING that she gets her hands on. It is so hard to keep books around for her because she reads them so fast. She usually gets books from the used bookstore but it would be nice to be able to give her some new ones that are only hers. Thanks for this amazing giveaway!

  35. Maja on November 12th, 2008 2:40 pm

    I want to win it to buy a cool book of photographs.

  36. Dixie on November 12th, 2008 2:45 pm

    During the recent Bloggy Book carnival I discovered so many new titles that I would like to read. This giftcard would allow me to indulge myself in a few of them.

    I’m trying to get my son to read more and it’s importance. Thanks for the contest!

  38. Helen on November 12th, 2008 2:49 pm

    I find great joy in reading books. This prize will make that joy come again when I can choose more books.

  39. Vicky H. on November 12th, 2008 2:55 pm

    I’d like the gift card because I’m a manga reader. There are two manga series I collect, currently up to 20 or so volumes for both, and it gets a little expensive trying to keep up. Aside from that, my sister, who is an avid reader, could always use a new book to keep her occupied.

    I love books and Barnes and Noble too. I like to write poetry and am always adding writing books to my collection. I am also into graphic design and could always use a book or two on that or on art in general. And then there’s always books to read purely for the joy of it! Thanks for this giveaway!

  53. Laura W. on November 12th, 2008 5:14 pm

    I’d like to buy my baby boy some new books, he’s easily bored. :lol:

  54. Merritt M on November 12th, 2008 5:19 pm

    I would like to win this gift card because I’m raising 3 boys who love to read and because we’re military and don’t make a lot of money, Christmas isn’t going to be real big. I know this card could do a lot of good in my household. We’re a family of 5 readers…what better, than getting a card to a book store.

  55. MRS.MOMMYY on November 12th, 2008 5:26 pm

    well I love barnes and noble but some of my sons books for school have to be purchased there so this would help

  64. MARILOUISE on November 12th, 2008 6:42 pm

    Winter around here keeps me pretty much homebound. There is nothing better than wrapping myself in my favorite afghan, with a warm cup of tea and a great book. The B&N card could help me through several cold nights.

  65. Charlene C. on November 12th, 2008 6:44 pm

    I’d like to give this to my mom for Christmas.

  66. Kym on November 12th, 2008 6:45 pm

  81. Valerie on November 12th, 2008 8:47 pm

    I am a teacher, we have a lot of students/families without resources. I have my eye on a book, but I would also donate some to our family giving tree this Christmas

  82. Sandy Tritt on November 12th, 2008 8:54 pm

    I love to read and my kids love their books also. I like the selection that they have at B & N

  83. Hayley G. on November 12th, 2008 9:07 pm

    This giftcard would be amazing because money is tight this holiday seasons and books are my gift of choice. When you give someone a book, you give them a story- something that will last a lifetime. It may sound cheesy but it’s true. Thanks for the chance to win!

  86. Samantha Crossley on November 12th, 2008 9:43 pm

    I love to read books; and Barnes & Noble is my favorite bookstore ever! They always have the books I love at very reasonable prices. A $50 GC from Barnes & Noble would really help me add tons of new books to my collection of books. Thanks for the Awesome contest!

  87. Brittney O on November 12th, 2008 9:56 pm

    I want it because I’m starting college this fall and ANY help with the high costs of books will help me.

  88. Dawn Vaughan on November 12th, 2008 10:07 pm

    I would love this gift card to be able to give my kids some Christmas presents that I would feel good giving them. We homeschool and my husband is out of work, so buying books right now is a luxury.

  89. Lorraine on November 12th, 2008 10:36 pm

    Love books, love B&N, and just don’t seem to have the extra money nowadays to go to B&N and splurge. More of a luxury these days.

  90. Kerri Reed on November 12th, 2008 10:37 pm

    This gift card would allow me to buy books for my son for Christmas. I love Barnes & Noble!!

  93. Lisa L. on November 12th, 2008 11:05 pm

    Fantastic gift for the book lover :lol:

  94. sheila k. on November 12th, 2008 11:06 pm

    Barne’s & Noble is like a vacation sanctuary to me. Hiding in the stacks are so many gateways to new kingdoms of knowledge. I would adore getting the gift card. Blessings.

  95. Kathy Russell on November 12th, 2008 11:11 pm

    All I can do is post a comment here. I don’t have all those other things. The reason I would love to win this is because I think some of my pictures were used for a new book that Barnes and Noble is puting out later this month. I would love to get it! It’s selling for almost a hundred dollars now this will really help. Last I heard they were using one of my photos for the back cover.

  96. scooter7018 on November 12th, 2008 11:23 pm

    i loveeee to read

  97. geekbearinggifts on November 12th, 2008 11:36 pm

    Why would I like the Barnes & Noble Card? Because my husband and I both love to read, the kids we love really love being read to, and Christmas, DH’s birthday, and Valentine’s Day are all coming up soon. Thanks for the awesome offer, and for telling me about BTfE Marketplace–I didn’t know about it either, and BTfE is an awesome program I wholeheartedly support.

  98. Tai on November 13th, 2008 12:51 am

    It is my favorite tradition to send Happy New Year gifts to my friends. I used to pick out themed items and send them, like spa themed items with a journal, candles, or for organization in the new year, planners, but as the years go by, interests change, so I send the same gift in theory, but just allow friends to make it work for their new interests by giving them gift cards to Barnes & Noble!

  99. Rebecca Graham on November 13th, 2008 12:52 am

    Some women love to shop for clothes or shoes but my shopping passion is for books. Barnes and Noble is my favorite store. I take my grandchildren there frequently to get them into the reading habit. Too many people are not interested in reading and that is so sad. I can’t imagine my world without books in it. Thanks for your giveaway!

  100. marleen davis on November 13th, 2008 1:08 am

    I would like to win because I love to read and B&N has any book you could want!

  101. Hil'Lesha on November 13th, 2008 2:33 am

  102. Margaret Stephens on November 13th, 2008 4:30 am

    I love reading and am on a very limited SS check so cannot afford to buy books.

  103. Scott Bergman on November 13th, 2008 5:00 am

    Pete and Pickles, need I say more

  104. Jean F on November 13th, 2008 5:43 am

    I would go Christmas shopping for my daughters

  105. Sydney Mathis on November 13th, 2008 5:47 am

    I have a family of readers and this would be so helpful especially during the holidays! Barnes and Noble is a temptation that just sometimes needs to be fulfilled.

  106. Tammy Tam on November 13th, 2008 5:50 am

    My dad is retired now and he reads, reads, reads. He loves to go to Barnes and Noble to shop.

  107. Tina J on November 13th, 2008 5:51 am

    I would love it to replace some books I lost.

  108. Tari Lawson on November 13th, 2008 5:58 am

    I would love to win this for my mother-in-law. She is an avid reader and is always doing nice things for us so this would be a nice way to give back to her.

    And I would love the gift card because we’re flat broke and the only people we have to buy for at Christmas are our two nephews and I’m all into the educational gifts…like books!

  112. Lmay on November 13th, 2008 6:42 am

    It seems like every semester I spend a big chunk of my paycheck on books – this would be a big help!

  113. Carol G on November 13th, 2008 6:50 am

    I buy a lot of books and am on a fixed income–$50 would help!

  114. Cynthia C on November 13th, 2008 6:59 am

    I want to buy my nephew some books for Christmas. Kids can’t have too many books.

  115. Lisa on November 13th, 2008 7:06 am

    I love Barnes and Noble, and could use some new books!

  116. Heather S on November 13th, 2008 7:35 am

    I;m out of work so gift giving for my daughters is really going to be limited this year

  121. Lisa Overcash on November 13th, 2008 8:03 am

    My niece goes thru books like crazy. It would be a nice gift.

  122. Shirley Hodge on November 13th, 2008 8:06 am

    It has gotten to the point that when I am comparing products in stores one of the things I look for is Boxtops icons for my grandaughter’s school and they come on lots of things that are not actually food. I get a lot of Boxtop items in K-Mart for example. As for Barnes and Nobel, well within their 4 walls is the world, the sum total of human creativity and the story of man so why wouldn’t one want $50 to spend there. In my B & N there is a coffee cafe with lovely coffees and teas also.

  123. danielle brisson on November 13th, 2008 8:12 am

    I need some new books to read in the coming cold winter months.

  124. Shannon on November 13th, 2008 8:18 am

    I can get just about everything on my Christmas list at a Book Store!

  125. Shilo Beedy on November 13th, 2008 8:22 am

    I would love to get my daughter a cook book since she is always taking those type books out of the school library. My son loves books as well and have had my eye on good night moon.

  126. Deborah Wellenstein on November 13th, 2008 8:26 am

    I’d love a B&N gift card to buy Stephen King’s newest novel Just Past Sunset and the new graphic novel Locke and Key by his son, Joe Hill.

  131. Lori Hilts on November 13th, 2008 9:19 am

    Times are tough – especially with Christmas coming! I would love the gift card to give to my Mother and Father in law. (They are so hard to buy for!)

  132. Stacey Shehorn on November 13th, 2008 9:22 am

    We simply have read all of the books of my daughters and we sure could use this gift card to buy new ones to keep her love of reading going.

  133. Julie Nusbaum on November 13th, 2008 9:24 am

  136. Deborah R on November 13th, 2008 9:41 am

    Thanks for promoting Box Tops – our local schools depend on the program to fund critical programs. I’d like to win the B&N gift card so I can get the neighbor’s grandkids some books. Thanks for the chance to win.

  137. Sharon Harmon on November 13th, 2008 9:41 am

    I would truly be grateful for the Barnes & Noble gift card, because finances are pretty tight lately and I love to read and haven’t been able to get new books for a while. Thank you for the contest!!

  173. Cathie on November 13th, 2008 3:30 pm

    Barnes and Nobles is a family experience to us. Myself my daughter in laws and my grandchildren all love to go and explore. We could make a day of it just browsing , finding gifts we’d like to get for eachother and what we’d like to get for ourselves. So I would use the gift card to have one of those special days with people I love and actually make a couple of those wish i could buy wishes come true

    Books are my favorite pastime. There’s a new Stephen King book coming out and Koontz just released another new one this past Tuesday. I’ve been trying not to hit the bookstore because my wallet is a tad bit empty lately and I should be saving for Christmas for everyone else..but it’s really tough!

  219. Jessie W on November 14th, 2008 2:37 am

    I was thinking of giving this card to a friend of mine who also loves to read. It’s tough to get gifts for readers so a gift card is so much better. Besides, if you’re a reader, the book hunt can be as much fun as the book itself.

  220. Shawnna on November 14th, 2008 5:21 am

    I have a few books on my wish list. This would shorten that list.

  221. Sara A on November 14th, 2008 8:11 am

    I would totally spend the afternoon browsing around for the best way to spend Barnes and Nobles. A nice slow pace that would last around 5 hours. What a great way to waste time.

    Then I would end up in the clearance section and blow the whole thing and then some.

He refuses to go to sleep unless he has certain books in bed with him. We read between 2 and 3 hours a day. It would be nice to take him to Barnes and Noble and let him pick some new books. I have pretty much memorized all of the books he has now.

  438. Sarah Ulfers on November 24th, 2008 8:05 am

    I visit author sites and keep a file on the print only books. Its easy for me to get ebooks but it costs more to get them in print because I live in the fronter one step beyond rural. I would like to get some books off that list.

  439. sandra kao on November 24th, 2008 8:20 am

    i’d love to win the gift card to replace some of the books that the boys have ruined, plus, i’m in need of some self-help books.

  447. Sue Farrell on November 24th, 2008 3:05 pm

  452. Jodie on November 24th, 2008 8:46 pm

    I would like to win this barnes and nobels gift card so i can give my mom a good gift for christmas this year. My mom works 3 jobs just to provide me everything i need and also “want”. I know this wouldent be a very big gift but she deserves something from myself and reading is one of her favorite things do do when she has time. I would love to give back to my mom for the many things she does for me. :smile:

  453. Sherri B. on November 24th, 2008 8:54 pm

    We are a family of readers mom as she has been a true blessing to us.There are several books on her wishlist and I can’t afford to buy them so she could get them with the gift card.

  456. Stephanie Adkins on November 24th, 2008 9:41 pm

    My daughter loves to read and she wants the Twilight book and few magazines

  457. Ursula on November 24th, 2008 9:51 pm

    This would be a great gift for my family. As my children are getting older, they are reading longer and more in-depth novels, which of course cost more. With 4 children, that could add up, and it would be nice for them to have their own new book instead of borrowing. Thanks for the great giveaway.

  458. Kobi Hendrix on November 24th, 2008 9:56 pm

    My whole family is avid readers and I’d love to shop for some new books

  466. Rick on November 25th, 2008 12:05 am

    I really love to read stories and I can say that this story is one of the best stories I ever read before.

  467. Christina on November 25th, 2008 12:06 am

    I want the $50 Barnes & Noble gift card because, starving artist/writer that I am (always pursuing creative freedom and identity instead of money!) I never buy books (although I read tons from the libraries!). So it would be great to actually OWN a few of my favorite books!

  468. guiller on November 25th, 2008 12:13 am

  515. Sherry R on November 25th, 2008 5:03 pm

    My husband is a huge reader! This would make the perfect Christmas gift for him – spending an afternoon perusing just the right books to add to his collection!

  516. brandy on November 25th, 2008 5:05 pm

    I need prese4nts for my dad and I know I could find some at Barnes and Nobles

  517. Bobv on November 25th, 2008 5:47 pm

  518. Tammy on November 25th, 2008 6:04 pm

    I would like this gift card so that I can buy my daughter some books for Christmas. She is 16 and wants to be the President of the United States someday and I believe this gift card would actually help her on her road to her dream!!! Thank You!

  519. Sandra S on November 25th, 2008 6:25 pm

    Our Barnes & Noble is asking for book donations for the flood victims. I would purchase books for the flood victims and one book for my son. It is always important to give. Thanks!

  520. Regina B on November 25th, 2008 6:29 pm

    I would love to get this. Christmas is comming up. It would be a great Chistmas present.

  523. Heather B on November 25th, 2008 7:29 pm

  524. EdV on November 25th, 2008 7:34 pm

    I’ve had my eye on a couple of new history books that I’d just have to purchase w/ the gift card.

  525. Monalisa C. on November 25th, 2008 7:41 pm

  528. Michelle L. on November 25th, 2008 8:09 pm

    My kids’ school collects boxtops, too. It would be great to help them out by shopping at Barnes and Noble through the boxtop website. What a great idea to be able to shop and help out at the same time.

  529. Carolyn D on November 25th, 2008 8:13 pm

    My daughter wants the last Twilight book and my husband the Medved book. I’ve got some shopping to do!

  530. Belenda on November 25th, 2008 9:02 pm

    I would love to win this gift card so I could claim it was a present intended for me to buy myself a couple of new books at the top of my rather long wishlist!

  531. Dawn D. on November 25th, 2008 9:16 pm

    I love to read and I love Latte’s, I’d be in heaven. There’s a Barnes and Noble right across the street from work.

  532. Dominique W on November 25th, 2008 9:25 pm

    There is a Barnes & Noble within walking distance from my office. This would give me a reason to exercise a bit on my lunch hour.

  533. Michelle Rosborough on November 25th, 2008 9:38 pm

    This would help buy the teen magazines for my daughter

  534. Heather G on November 25th, 2008 9:41 pm

    I would use the card to buy a book for myself and one for each of my children.

    Thank you for the chance to win!

  537. Catharine M on November 25th, 2008 10:09 pm

    I love to read, I love to go to Barnes and Noble, and it would be nice to

  538. Robert R on November 25th, 2008 10:12 pm

    i’m looking to start a small business on the side and found some good books to help me the other day while visiting the store

  539. barbara on November 25th, 2008 10:12 pm

    :mrgreen: i just love Barnes and Noble i love reading you can lose your self in a good book :mrgreen:

  540. Lisa G. on November 25th, 2008 10:15 pm

    My daughter Maddie and I are both huge book worms so I would love to get some great new books for us to share!

  541. Phillip Fry on November 25th, 2008 10:19 pm

    I love to read and this would be great!

  542. Auriette on November 25th, 2008 10:24 pm

    I’ve been longing to curl up with a good book, but I can’t justify buying anything extra right now, and I just haven’t made the time to go to the library. I would love to buy $50 worth of paperbacks; that’ll keep me happy for a couple of months.

  543. Nicole Price on November 25th, 2008 10:32 pm

    I would love to win this gift card because I love shopping at Barnes and Noble. I love reading so shopping here is my idea of bliss. This would be a wonderful way to have to time to myself and I’ll be able to pick up some books for my kids too.

  544. Kathryn on November 25th, 2008 10:36 pm

    I’m a huge fan of Barnes & Nobles, and besides from great books, they also have a really good selection of board games that make great gifts!

  545. Sherri Gorbey on November 25th, 2008 11:14 pm

    My whole family loves to read, thank goodness, so this giftcard would be quickly spent on a new book for each of us. I have no doubt my daughter will opt for the new Twilight companion book.

  546. Kelly H. on November 25th, 2008 11:26 pm

    I would love to send some new books to my husband stationed overseas. He reads them faster than I am able to send them. He also trades with his fellow soldiers so it would be for many people’s enjoyment. I love the selection I find at Barnes and Noble and the employees are always helpful in ordering anything you do not already have. They have even put together a package of books for my husband after they learned of why I bought so many books. Thank You!

  547. Amy on November 25th, 2008 11:30 pm

    I want to be able to give something to my husband for Christmas, he works very hard for his family, and trips to the bookstore are one of his sacrifices

  548. Audry on November 25th, 2008 11:33 pm

    Hi,

    I was reading a book about vampires because I work the night shift and I have plenty of time. I left my nurses bag at work after my night shift and when I returned the next night my bag and book were gone. The supervisor also gave me more on my assignment. How unfair. I’m guessing she found it and thought I didn’t have enough to do. I’d like to replace my book. It’s called Night Rising.

  549. Michelle H. on November 25th, 2008 11:37 pm

    My husband and I love Barne’s and Noble and so do our kids. We could spend hours in that store and we would put the gift card to good use.

  550. Brenda S. on November 25th, 2008 11:38 pm

    The whole family could spend all day browsing at Barnes and Noble.

  551. Chantal on November 25th, 2008 11:43 pm

    I love books with a fiery, burning passion. Now that I don’t have a job, I haven’t been reading as much as the library is far away. I would love to be able to buy some more books to read!!! It would mean a LOT to me to win.

  552. Chantal on November 25th, 2008 11:46 pm

    I twittered this contest. My twitter name is Tinneas37.

  553. Chantal on November 25th, 2008 11:48 pm

    Sorry for all of the comments, I don’t know how to edit my other ones to include this. I also mde a post at http://lavendot.livejournal.com/profile, and I put your badge on my profile page there.

  554. Paul Miller on November 25th, 2008 11:55 pm

    I have a niece that LOVES to read — so this would be a great Christmas gift for her — and so helpful to me since I am now out of work.

    Thanks so much for the opportunity.

    Happy Holidays everyone!

  555. Jay French on November 26th, 2008 12:03 am

    I’d use the B&N giftcard for one of their audio professor series books and some, possibly lots, of coffee.

  556. Wendy on November 26th, 2008 12:20 am

    I would love to purchase some ready-to-read books for my son. He is not to found of reading and if he could pick out his own books, just maybe he would be more interested in praticing his reading skills. :roll:

  557. Kathleen S. on November 26th, 2008 12:41 am

    I am a complete and total book addict. This would be awesome to win, thanks!

  558. Jennelle Henderson on November 26th, 2008 12:44 am

    My sister’s birthday is in January and I would give the card to her because there are many books she has mentioned wanting.

  559. Kristi Gilleland on November 26th, 2008 12:48 am

    I would use the card to take my son there. We have our homeschool group meetings there and we always have a drink or bottle of water and he has to have some cheesecake. Sometimes he finds a magazine or book he wants.
    Plus, I really want to read Twilight now. I saw it, but I heard the book was better, the movie was good I thought, so now I want to read the book. :)

  560. Samantha Pruitt on November 26th, 2008 1:25 am

    so i can buy some great books!

  561. Helen on November 26th, 2008 3:30 am

  563. Kirl on November 26th, 2008 4:45 am

  564. Cam R on November 26th, 2008 4:56 am

  565. jesy on November 26th, 2008 5:45 am

    LLOOOVVEEE to read

  566. Rita G on November 26th, 2008 5:58 am

    My eight year old and I went to Barnes and Noble last week together for the first time. She was like watching a kid in the candy store. We got home with her new book and she sat and read the whole thing that evening. This card would give me some memorable Mommy daughter time and also encourage my daughter to share a life long love of books. This prize is better than any “toy” she could possibly get!

  567. christina hicks on November 26th, 2008 6:13 am

    If I was lucky enough to win… I would get a book or two for wee man and lil kiwi… then IF there was some left I would be a tad selfish and get myself something….

  573. Ruthann Rhodes on November 26th, 2008 7:18 am

    We, my family and I, spend LOTS of time at the local Barnes & Noble. Is a great place to relax and browse. The GC would be awesome for some new books as you’ll never see a one of us without a book in hand or purse for those waiting in line times. Thanks

  574. Leilani on November 26th, 2008 7:20 am

    :mrgreen: I am interested in starting my on mini-vineyard. I have my eye on some good books on planting and maintaining vineyards that I would love to use as resources!

  589. David Gresh on November 26th, 2008 10:49 am

    I would buy some science fiction, read them several times, then donate them to the library for others to enjoy.

  590. Kathy S on November 26th, 2008 10:50 am

    I love Barnes and Noble, and it would be great fun to take my granddaughters on a little book “shopping spree” with the gift card!

  591. Dddiva on November 26th, 2008 10:51 am

    I’d use the GC as a gift for my daughter because any time she has extra she uses it for her son and I’d like for her to have a treat for herself.

  592. Geoff K on November 26th, 2008 10:52 am

    I’d love to use this card to purchase a gift for my nephew, who has begun to take an interest in American history — I’d love to buy him Barack Obama’s two books, Jonathan Alter’s recent book on FDR’s first hundred days, and several of Doris Kearns Goodwin’s terrific books. Thanks for the chance to win!

  593. bridget on November 26th, 2008 10:59 am

    I love the feel of walking into Barnes and Nobles and walking out with a new book. I love the sound of cracking open the spine of a new book. I would get a hardcover of Tale of Two Cities and a new bestseller.

  602. Timothy Sternberg on November 26th, 2008 1:18 pm

  607. Joanna Smith on November 26th, 2008 1:48 pm

    I would love this gift card because Barnes and Noble is my very favorite place to go to get away from it all! I have 3 young children all under the age of 10 and I find if I need to break away for a couple of hours once my husband is home from work, going to Barnes and Noble is my favorite guilty pleasure place to go. I love to grab a Chai Latte from the Cafe and relax and browse through books on a number of subjects that I am passionate about. I also love to find the latest and greatest children’s books that I can purchase for my kids because they love it when my husband and I read to them. I would love to have $50 to spend on some quality books for them and perhaps even get a gift of two for family members who also enjoy reading! Thank you so much for the opportunity to enter.

  608. Joanna Smith on November 26th, 2008 1:49 pm

  634. L Knott on November 26th, 2008 5:46 pm

    Books -You can never have too many. I would go to Barnes and Noble and buy some New books! So many of my books are likely used. Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy them fully and pass them on. Our school does the Box Tops for Schools. They have a drop off at the local Post Office. Nice to catch those people in town without kids in school. Thanks for the chance to WIN!!

    I love to give books as Christmas gifts to my grandchildren. My husband had open heart surgery and lost his job as a result of his surgery and has of yet have a job. I have been suffering from health issues myself, so Christmas will be slim this year. That is why I would love to win this. Thank you for the opprotunity.

    I’d love to win this! My husband and I are both big readers, esp. in the winter. So this would be fantastic for us to win this time of year! Thank you!

    My 16 yr old son has been the biggest fan of the Harry potter series and I would love to get him the latest edition that is coming out beginning of January for collectors. I think it is called Dweedle something….

    Next to the library Barnes and Noble is my favorite place to visit. I placed a Box Top collection at the library.

    I’d love to win so I can pick up a bunch of books for all my kids :)

    I’m helping my sister, who has four young daughters, with Christmas because they are close to being foreclosed upon. Would love to win the giftcard to pass along to her.

    I would be thrilled to win the BN card- I need some cool, belated b-day gifts for myself :D Yes, it is a selfish reason, but I do read quite a lot of books (as opposed to watching tv or movies in my spare time). I’m starved for actual NEW books, because pretty much everything I buy is secondhand from the local thrift shop, library, etc. There are a few photography books (Joel Peter Witkin and/or Diane Arbus), novels and poetry books that would be most welcome in my collection. Thanks!!

    I would love this for my 12 year old grandson who loves to read.

    I want to win the GC b/c my whole family LOVES books and I could get some great holiday shopping done. Money is tight this year (for most people I think), so this would be wonderful. Thanks for the chance to enter!
