{CLOSED} Giveaway: $50 American Express Gift Cards (2 winners!)

07/27/2011 By Charlene

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.

Well I have a fun giveaway for your Wednesday afternoon.   Two lucky winners will each score one $50 American Express gift card to use on whatever it is they would like courtesy of Lifetime Television network.

This is a promotion for the new tv series called Against the Wall where a Chicago police officer is promoted to detective for Internal Affairs.  This creates some conflict with her family of fellow police officers.

I have actually been watching the previews of this and I already have it added to my DVR.  I usually like these types of shows and they keep me company when I am doing store matchups late at night!

If you want to check out a preview of this new TV series, you should be able to see it below:

The show premieres on July 31st on Lifetime TV at 10pm.

And on to the giveaway!!  Two lucky readers will score a $50 gift card from American Express to use on whatever it is you want!

If you would like to enter to win just leave a comment below and let me know what you’d do with your $50!  Most of us would probably do something practical like fill the gas tank but if I was forced to do something fun with the money, I’d probably go get a massage.  Or maybe I’d hire a housecleaning service so I can take a nap.  It has been a rough day for me so a margarita machine would come in handy as well….

If you are reading this in a newsletter just click here to leave your comment.

2. FOR A BONUS ENTRY: If you are a fan of My Frugal Adventures on Facebook you get a bonus entry!  Make sure to leave a second comment letting me know!

GOOD LUCK! This giveaway ends on August 8th at 7pm PST.

  5. Emily D says

    07/27/2011 at 2:02 PM

    I would tuck the American Express card away in a file folder I have called “Day After Thanksgiving” and I would give it to my teenage daughter that day as a special shopping surprise. It’s a really special mother-daughter day for us every year.

  12. Becky says

    07/27/2011 at 2:03 PM

    I would be my usual frugal self and stretch it as far as I could for groceries.

  21. Charissa Mullins says

    WOW, if I had $50, I would spend $20 on a PEDICURE, they are so relaxing, especially when you have 2 babies like me and you’re constantly on your feet running after them (they’re 1 & 2) After the Pedicure I’d get with one of my girls and get a bite to eat at a cute little restaurant and spend about $15 more dollars on that. With my last $15 I would go coupon shopping and see what all I can get with the $15! I definitely know how to stretch it! I LOVE couponing, its so fun for me. So $50 would really come in handy for me 🙂

  22. Shawnee Robinson-Poling says

    07/27/2011 at 2:09 PM

    I have the show set up to record on my DVR, looks really good! I would use the money to get some clothes for my boys for school!

  23. Lavanya says

    07/27/2011 at 2:09 PM

  24. Alexandria D. says

    07/27/2011 at 2:09 PM

  25. Lisa B says

    07/27/2011 at 2:09 PM

    Seriously, I’d take the family out to Orange Leaf, a new yogurt bar in town. It’s amazing and I love when we all get together.. so I’d def. do that!

  26. Renee says

    07/27/2011 at 2:10 PM

    Practical? i would use it to coupon to donate awesome free things to the local shelters or food drives! people should help local charities if they are getting free things! (and there are a lot that dont! hogs!)

    fun? i would probably take my kids to the caverns before school starts back. they need something to do before then!

  27. Amanda says

    07/27/2011 at 2:10 PM

    I work as a speech therapist an elementary school and would use it for school supplies.

  34. Brandy says

    07/27/2011 at 2:11 PM

    If I was being practical I would spend it on groceries or back to school stuff. But if I wasn’t being practical I’d spend it on something ridiculous like a bunch of new purses.

  45. cindy says

    07/27/2011 at 2:12 PM
