My most memorable gift was a tiny camera. It took horrible pictures, but it was my first camera and I loved it! I would choose the Barnes and Noble, thank you!

This may not be my most memorable, but it is my first memory of a gift at Christmas (and the first that came to mind). When I was about 7 or 8 my brother and I both got Sesame Street slippers… One was Cookie Monster and one was Big Bird. I honestly dont remember who got which ones, but I remember we LOVED those things!
I’d choose Starbucks!!!

My most memorable Christmas gift was a little Christmas Angel Brooch from my sister the year before she passed away. I wear it every Christmas and think fondly of her wishing she were still here.

I’d want an American Express Card

My DSLR camera is my most memorable gift. My husband coordinated with his family and my family and had them all pitch in so that I could have a nice camera that year…it was really sweet.

I’d love to win the Best Buy gift card! Thanks!

My most memorable gift was a homemade jewelry box my husband and kids made for me. They worked so hard on it and it was beautiful.
I’d choose the AMEX card if I won. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this wonderful giveaway. My most memorable gift was when my husband proposed on Christmas eve. We had only known each other for 6 weeks and here he proposed, ring and all. How romantic. Now some 14 years and a few kids later, I still cherish that gift of his love. Thanks so much and please enter me for the American Express Gift card. Happy Holidays.

The most memorable gift I’ve ever gotten was a poem that my husband wrote me when we were dating. I’ve had it framed and it sits by my bedside ever since.

I’d love to win a Starbucks gift card! THanks for the great giveaway.

I would have to say my most memorable gift was my KitchenAid stand mixer, as I had wanted one for soooo long.

I’d love the Barnes & Noble gift card as I’m sure there’s a cookbook in there somewhere that I don’t yet own…

Thanks for the ‘gift-away’… and Merry Christmas to you.. and yours!

my most memorable christmas was the first year i was married. i ended up getting the flu so bad and ws sick in bed at my in-laws house for 2 weeks straight. i ended up in the hospital with 3 broken ribs from coughing so much!! yuck! not fun!

i would love to get the barnes and noble card! thanks!

I loved my Etch a Sketch! Being able to create new art pieces constantly was a joy for me and then just having to shake it, to get rid of something you don’t like was awesome as well!

My Slinky is a close second….

I’d love the American Express Card!

Thanks so much!

I’d most definitely pick the Barnes and Noble gift card, and finally buy some books for me!

My most memorable gift was from my sister-in-law. I don’t have a wedding album (we went cheap, and I regret it) and she put together a whole wedding scrapbook for us. It was gorgeous and the perfect gift.

most memorable is a set of lace my grandmother gave me- not the best gift for a child but now I look at it, and see the love and remember her stories

My most memorable Christmas gift was when I was about 8 years old I got a package of ALF the martian underware. I was so embarrased. I would like the Best Buy giftcard. Thanks!

I’d like the BestBuy card.

Thank so much for doing this!

my most memorable christmas gift was when I was about 8 or 9 and my parents got me a pair of ice skates. my dad then brought us out in the back yard and pulled back a tarp–and he had made us a “skating rink”. It was lumpy and bumpy and slanted, but we spent hours out there laughing and skating and enjoying time together!

I would choose the ebay gift card if I was a lucky winner!

My most memorable Christmas gift was a diamond ring from my husband. I would like to win the American Express Gift Card. Thanks.

Here from the Scribbit Message Board.

By far my best gift was my husband wrapping all my gifts in old boxes that our tupperware came in and surprising me with my canon camera I’d been asking for all year!!

American Express one if I win please!!

My most memorable Christmas gift was when my parents bought me a new bed. It took up so much space under the tree.

I would pick the Best Buy gift card if I won because my future BIL would love that for Christmas.

My most memorable xmas would have to be when I was 12yrs old I got a new 13in TV and Atari Video Game. I thought that was just the most awesome thing…wrapped in a BIG red bow.
Id choose the Barnes and Noble Gift Card..thanks.

Last Christmas we got a new car, jus like on tv.
I would choose the AE card, you can spend it anywhere.

My most memorable gift was a Nintendo from my parents. I still have it and play it occasionally. Nothing beat the original NES system.

American Express card

My most memorable Christmas gift would have to be a quilt that I got from my grandmother. My great-great grandmother had made all the squares, and my great-grandmother and grandmother pieced them together.
I’d choose Barnes and Noble for sure!

shelcows AT gmail DOT com

My most memorable gift would be the bicycle I got when I was 8
I’d love to get the Ebay GC! Thanks!

i would love the barnes and noble gift card!! thanks for the giveaway!

My most memorable gift was my gamecube from my kids. I would like the Barnes and noble card

My most memorable Christmas gift was a laptop. I was about to enter grad school and only had an old desktop computer. My boyfriend, now husband, bought me a MAC and I couldn’t have been more surprised.
If I won this giveaway, I would want the Ebay gift card.

My most memorable gift was getting my first pair of ice skates.

I would choose the American Express gift card.

Hmmm, I would have to say my most memorable Christmas present was a sled. Riding it, I slammed my head into a tree, but it was worth it! I would choose the Barnes and Noble gift card.

My most memorable gift was when my husband bought me a bible with my new name on it when we were engaged.

I want an AmEx card.
Thanks.

Most memorable present was a series of Buffy the vampire comics, I didn’t even they existed and I loved the tv show. I’d like the amex gift card please.

My most memorable Christmas gift was from my Hubby. He got together with my dad and brother in law and conspired together to get myself, my mom, and sister a trip to NYC to see Phantom of the Opera on Broadway, our favorite. It was an AWESOME gift!!

I would love the Ebay gc, I think I am addicted.

My most memorable gift was, I think, my first digital camera. My mom got me the whole set up and it got me started on my path to being a photographer!
If I won, I think I would like the eBay card. I’m such a bid junkie!

I remember one year I really wanted a puppy but my parents didn’t want one. So they got me a big stuffed animal dog instead. It wasn’t really what I was thinking. If I win I’d choose the american express card.

My most memorable Christmas gift was a set of photo stamps from my sister of our companion animal, Sasha (a kitty), who had died that year. Man, that sounds like a downer, but it really was a great gift.

I would choose the American Express card. (Though I was taught not to look a gift horse in the mouth, so, in reality, I’d take any of them.)

One of my favorite things (that I don’t even remember getting!) is a beaded Santa boot ornament one of my mom’s friends made for me when I was a toddler. I love hunting for it in the ornaments every year and then putting it on the tree.

First choice would be the Barnes and Noble gift card.

My favorite gifts every year from about 9yo through my teens were the reference books my parents would buy me. Seriously, I got a dictionary one year, an atlas another year, one year they went big time and got me the 5-volume set of the pictorial history of the Civil War. I was such a total book nerd. I still am! - which is why I would choose the B&N card.

My most memorable gift was an LP of the Wizard of Oz soundtrack — memorable because I’d asked for ac/dc “back in black” instead, and WoO was like the anti-ac/dc.

If I win, I’d prefer the AmEx card as first choice, Ebay 2nd, and Starbucks 3rd.

1. Most memorable xmas gift was probably the first thing my bf (now husband) bought me on our first xmas together - custom framed picture of me and him on vacation. I am a sap like that.

2. I’d probably choose the AMEX but my husband would probably choose Best Buy. haha.

Thanks for hosting such an awesome giveway! I hope I win!
/Clara

The most memorable Christmas present I’ve ever gotten was the engagement ring my husband gave to me right before Christmas. A close second would be these scary little plastic santa heads that my grandma got me one year. I have no idea who would want disembodied Santa heads . . . anyway they were memorable in an odd way.

I would like the Barnes & Noble gift certificate if I win.

The most memorable Christmas gift I’ve ever received is a trip to the Bahamas from my husband (before we were married). I think I would like any of those gift cards, except Starbucks because I don’t drink coffee. If I had to choose just one, I would go with the American Express card. It would be most versatile.

Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!

My favorite Christmas memory was the first Christmas with my husband, only a little more than a month after our wedding, and the pathetic tree we had…LOL

I would choose the AmEx card!

I remember getting so many amazing gifts as a kid. I remember my chalk board, since I loved playing teacher. I remember my blue scooter. I also remember my red Barbie Ferrari. I loved that toy: http://flickr.com/photos/lipsss/3026740084

I was so young. I’m not blind by the way, that’s just a patch over one of my eyes because my other eye was weak.

I’m all about the American Express card, but I’d be happy with any of them.

Thanks and good luck to everyone!

for my eighth birthday my parents got me an electric guitar

*please delete my comment right above? so sorry about that!

My most memorable Christmas gift is a rag doll. That was actually my only gift growing up since my culture and home didn’t focus on the gifts but rather the dinner itself!

I would love to win the American Express one most definitely!

My most memorable gift was the stereo my parents gave me in 9th grade. We opened all our presents and I didn’t get anything “big”, but my bro and sis did. I was really disappointed and then my dad says that not all of the gifts are open. I start looking under the tree but I don’t see anything. My dad is just chuckling to himself and giving me hints, and finally I find this big box sitting in plain site, not wrapped, totally says there is a stereo in it, etc. We had recently moved to this house and so there was still a stack of unpacked boxes in the living room and apparently my present had been sitting in plain sight for weeks and I never noticed. I still have that same stereo for about 13 years and it still works!

I’d love the B&N gift card

My most memorable gift was my son, he was born on Christmas day! I would like the ebay GC!

Congrats Stacey…I cannot top that but I did love my Wonder Woman doll when I was 5…It was a barbie-sized doll w/ Diana Prince’s outfit and WW’s…but it mysteriously disappeared in one of my Army-family’s moves and I have missed it since
What A yummy site! and kind contest…I would have to wish for the AmEx card b/c my 12yo son thinks they are the coolest

My most memorable Christmas giftS are the handmade angel ornaments from Europe that my grandmother bought for me and my sister. She had bought several of them for each of us, one for each Christmas for years to come. After she died, for years she continued to give us angels for Christmas. They ARE MY MOST Treasured ornaments and are quadruple wrapped! They mean everything to me at Christmas.

I’d love either the Best Buy or AmEx, in the event that I am luck enough to win.

Sheri

A dictionary– I needed it for college.

Would love to win an American Express gift card. Thanks

My most memorable gift was our Video camera. We got it from my mother, because we wanted to capture evrything about our baby who was due in April. I was so lucky to have that! I love wathcing those videos now that she is a toddler, It’s fun to look back!
I would pick the American express card!

My most memorable Christmas present was a huge jar of mustard! My preference is the Barnes & Noble card, thanks!

My most memorable Christmas gift is a matchbox car my son gave me when he was 3, ahhh! I would love to win the Barnes & Noble gift card, to give to that same son–

My most memorable gift was a gorgeoous necklace from my son.
I’d sure like to win the $25 to Best Buy.

My most memorable gift was a birthday cake that my daughter wanted to make for me. She wanted a green cake with blue icing. Her dad helped her make it. What a combination of colors for a cake! LOL

It’s so hard to pick just one memorable gift, because they’re all special; but the Little Mermaid doll I got when I was 8 stands out in my mind as an extra special gift.

Thank you so much for the chance! I would love the American Express gift card if I won, what great choices!

My most memorable gift was a stereo that I got when I was 12. I was so excited! I think my parents regretted it after I started listening to music they didn’t appreciate.

I would love to win the American Express card!

My most memorable Christmas present was from my godmother. It was plush light blue dog that you could stuff your pj’s in. I was about 4 years old.
I’d choose Starbucks.

My most memorable gift was a pack of panties. My cousin had hyped me up about what a wonderful gift I was getting from them and when I opened it, it was panties. I was so upset and blurted out…….Panties! Panties! This isn’t a great gift. I got in loads of trouble from my mom. Funny thing is now that I’m older I tend to ask for panties for Christmas.

American Express card

I would have to say that my most memorable Christmas gift ever was way back in 1979. I got a small Hobbit house designed by my dear Uncle with all the parts made by hand. Thats was an act of patience and soooooo cherished.

American Express. Thanks for the giveaway!

It wasn’t actually my Christmas gift that I remember so well, it was my younger sister’s. She got a “Jodie” doll and it came with a “house” (it actually was just a big kitchen. I can still remember the song they used to advertise for that doll “Jodie, Oh Jodie, she’s a country girl doll. Sweet, pretty Jodie, the country girl doll”. It came with these little cast iron pots and pans and a little cat figurine. My sister and I played with Jodie all the time.

I’d love the American Express card, thank you.

most memorable Christmas gift, i must say would be this oh so lovely and great blanket that a friend made for me, aside from it being beautiful and so useful, she made it herself, i just can’t believe it, i love that.
i’d love the Barnes & Noble card!

I’ve always loved “office” and office supply stuff. The Christmas I was in Kindergarten, my parents gave me a child’s sized roll top desk. I’d file my papers from school, and I’d sit there and color and pretend I was working in an office. I had sections with crayons, pencils, notebooks, and I loved it! I’d pick the ebay gift card because I’m always buying office supplies on ebay.

My most memorable gift was a blanket that my husband made me:) I would love to win the Barnes and Noble gift card!

My most memorable Christmas gift was a homemade hula skirt, from Santa.

I would like to have the Barnes & Nobles card if I win.

Belle

I’d love the amex. My favorite Xmas gift was a baby sable ferret.

My most memorable gift was my kitten Slippers. Slippers lived to be 15, and the joy I felt that morning when I got her still resonates to this day. I would love to win Starbucks. Amex would be great too, as would the rest!

I think my most memorable Christmas gift would have to be my snowboard, which my husband surprised me with on our first Christmas together.

I would love the American Express card

My favorite Christmas gift ever was my first bike, I remember it was pink and had a banana seat and I thought it was the greatest thing in the whole world, like getting a new car when your 16!

I would really love any of those gift cards but I would probably choose the Star Bucks, mmm coffee!

My favorite gift was a lhasa apso puppy. She was the cutest pup and the best friend ever. I would choose Amex. Thanks for the contest!

For memorable gifts, I would have to pick my gift from my husband on our 2nd Christmas. I love to sew and he bought me a top of the line sewing machine with a lovely cabinet. Still using the cabinet, but have worn out that machine and 2 others since then! Would pick the Starbucks card, since would immediately regift it to my daughter!

My most memorable gift was last year. My mother had taken a piece of her own jewerly and had two diamonds taken out and set as pendant and gave on to me and on to my sister as an heirloom item to had to down to our daughters.
My husband begged me to take the Bestbuy card.

I’d have to say an mp3 player, I like music and I enjoy it a lot, I’d like an ebay gift card if I’m lucky, thanks.

My most memorable gift? The year I found my Christmas gifts, and I knew what I was getting, and I didn’t like what I was getting. I was about 7 and I tried really hard to fake it, but I must have gone overboard because my mom knew immediately that I knew what I was getting ahead of time.

I would love the Barnes and Noble card.

Amazing. My most memorable gift was HILARIOUS! My aunt and uncle who live in small town MO gifted their city girl nieces with these terrible (but hilarious) hoodies. Mine was a HUGE black one with sparkly pink writing that had had this hilariously cheesy phrase with no rhythm or rhyme. Maybe they got it in a giveaway and thought it would work for us. We laughed real hard. It’s the thought that counts, right?

I love the Bucks!

My most memorable gift was a beautiful bird bath that I had been wanting for a long time. I would like the American Express card.

I’d LOVE the American Express one.
I’ll never forget when I got my first leather jacket!

I’ve had so many wonderful Christmas gifts that it’s hard to say which is the most memorable. I do remember being very excited about getting my first Barbie doll - and it was the first year they came out! I’d love the American Express card. Thank you for this wonderful giveaway.

Love the starbucks card…my best present ever was a Gramin Forerunner.

1.) What’s your most memorable Christmas gift?

My Love-A-Lot Carebear that I got the Christmas I was 2. I’m 27 now, and still have her. She’s very worn, but has been very loved over the years. My little girls actually fight over who gets to sleep with her at night. LOL

I’d love to win the Starbucks or the Barnes & Noble card, though all of those would be great in their own way.

Thanks for the entry!!!

1 - after we were married for just about a year, my husband took the tiny diamond from my wedding ring and had it set into a necklace, and he upgraded the diamond in the ring to a bigger one - since the original diamond was loose, I thought he’d just taken it to be fixed - I was SHOCKED on Christmas morning!

2 - I’d go for the AMEX card, since it is the most versatile.

Thanks for the contest!

My most memorable gift was nightfgowns my late MOM made because even thoo she was sick with CANCER she still sewed for the holidays as she knew we needed the intems she made. an american express card would be wonderful gla and HAPPY HOLIDAYS

The most memorable gift for me was being caught up in the sheer emotion & the look on my Mom’s face when I gave her a roundtrip ticket to visit her native Thailand. It cost me $1500 and I saved up for a whole year, but the look on My Mom’s face was priceless. She ended up having the time of her life

I would love a Barnes & Noble Gift card, that is our family’s favorite place to hang out and pick up a few good reads! Thanks again!

Anyhoo, if I won, I’d love any of the cards, but I guess I’d pick AmEx due to its versatility.

Thanks for the great giveaway!

I have two…my dad built me a Barbie apartment out of wood, and the First Christmas with my Step Dad he bought me a Sega Game Gear…which I wanted so badly. I’d love to win either the B&N or the Amex. Both cards would be spent purchasing books regardless. Thanks!

Mine would have to be a brown and blue jewelry box that I saw in a store that was going out of business, and it matched our bedroom decor PERFECTLY, so I asked everyone for it, but it was a lot of money. On Christmas morning I was very surprised when I opened a box and found this. It made my day!

My most memorable gift was my son who was born on Christmas in 83.
I would love the American Express card.

My most memorable Christmas gift was given to me a few years back by my son. I have memories of my 2nd grade teacher reading a book to us entitled “Sunny Elephant” and had searched every used book store and online sites to no avail. I had talked about this with family, never thinking that anyone was actually paying attention. Then a few years back my 20+ yr old son surprised me with a copy of it for Christmas. He had kept that mental note of a conversation that took place years ago. The book was nothing compared to his hunting it down and giving it to me. I’d have to go with the Barnes & Noble gift card!

I’m pretty sure I haven’t entered this!!

I’d love the Barnes N Noble gift card and my favorite Holiday gift? Oh gosh, I guess the British edition of the first Harry Potter book when I was younger. I was a HUGE fan, and still love HP, so it was a lot of fun!!!

The Christmas gift that is most memorable to me was when I was about 4. I had asked for “a stove,”stink” and fridge-rater”. My parents got me a perfect just right little girl’s size set complete with pots, pans, and even little food that went in the fridge. Oh, I just had fun with that for YEARS. A few years later, my dad and grandfather (who was a carpenter) even made me a little playhouse in the backyard and I just had SO much fun pretending it was my own little cottage…Can you tell I was spoiled…LOL??

my dad always struggled for money. I found this cool leather bomber jacket. and I found it on sale at LS ayers. Then my mom (divorced from him) found him a coupon for more money off and man, when I got that I thought I was the coolest person in school. Actually I know I was. Even the boys told me it was cool. and I was a big nerd.

I would love the barnes and noble. thanks so much! thanks for the memory too.

Mine was just last year. I had just moved out of my mom’s house and to the city and it was cold! I had a perfectly fine winter coat, but my mom got me a pea coat I had been eyeing for a while. I love it. Wear it all the time! I think I would pick the American Express card and give it to my mom this year. Than we can go shopping together and she can get some great stuff. Thanks for the giveaway!

My most memorable gift was a Bruce Springsteen DVD. I wanted that so bad!

I would love the Barnes and Noble Gift card.

My most memorable gift was a small diamond pinky ring when I was 13. The diamond was really small, but at 13, I loved it.

I would like the Best Buy gift card.

Thanks

My most memorable Christmas gift was a Chatty Cathy. I was 10 years old (1966.) You pulled the string on her back and she talked. I love her. I put her in my bicycle basket and rode her all over Chicagoland in the winter (now that’s talent.)

I would like a Barnes and Noble Gift card.

Thank you and Merry Christmas.

My best gift was a violin when I was ten, and I would like the barnes and nobles card.

My most memorable gift was a bicycle. I would love to win the American Express card!

My most memorable christmas gift was two serial killer books from my boyfriend–I have a weird fascination with serial killers such as Ted Bundy and JW Gacy, etc…….I know it’s kind of creepy, but it was wonderful.
I would love to win the American Express Card!

My best gift was a Cabbage Patch Kid when I was about 8. We had next to nothing, and my mom *made* me one. Pretty amazing. As for the card, I’d take AmEx, I think.

My favorite gift was a painting that my son made me on a huge canvas - my parents had helped him and then they let him give it to me for christmas (he was 2) — love it!

I’d take the AmEx please!

Autumn398 (at) yahoo.com

MY PUPPY, NICKIE, WAS MY BEST GIFT EVER.
I COULD USE THE AMEX

A Chatty Cathy doll. I can’t really say why that is the most memorable, unless it’s the fact that it’s still in my parents attic and you can pull her string and she still talks.
I get my grown up toys now at Best Buy, if I should win.

Thanks for the opportunity.

I want a best buy and the best gift I ever got was a cradle my dad made me when i was young

I’m having a hard time thinking of my most memorable gift, but I’ll share my most memorable gift I gave … the year I surprised my husband with a table saw!! He had no idea and it was wonderful to treat him to something special!

I’d love a Starbucks GC … What Mama doesn’t need a little more of that?!?! ;).

So happy I discovered your blog, off to read more!

My most memorable gift was a Schwinn Cruiser bike that I got at age 12 and still have.
I’d love the American Express card!
Thanks and Merry Christmas

My most memorable Christmas gift actually came a month early last year when I got my first car. I got a Honda Civic 2008 as my first car…not bad huh?

If I win this contest, I’d like the American Express gift card

My most memorable Christmas has to be when I was a little one and had gotten an Easy Bake Oven! That is what sparked my interest in cooking. It’s still pretty clear: the morning after, my older cousin woke me up early, and the two of us made several things, but only after locking the basement door so all of the guys (cousins and brothers) couldn’t come upstairs. we ate every last cookie and cake all by ourselves!

If I win, I’d like to go with the Best Buy card. I’m sure my brother would find some use for it. Might make up for hogging all of the food.

Okay, my favorite Christmas gift memory is the year Santa brought me my phleather (fake leather) mini skirt, matching vest and white go-go boots!!! Now what makes this such a memory is that at the age of 8, I was wearing a size 9 shoe (okay so my feet and nose grew first and I’m still waiting for my chest to catch up!), so those size 9 Go-Go boots were a sight for sore eyes!!! Yikes!!! I was so happy, I never noticed I looked like I was wearing snow shoes!!
For my card, I chose Barnes and Noble!!!
Thank you so much for this opportunity!

A Swiss army knife (no, really.) It was from my brother.
Barnes & Noble

My favorite Christmas gift memory was from when I was in grade 3. I remember I reeeaaaly wanted the Care Bears Elephant cousin and mentioned it like a zillion times to my mom. By that point I knew Santa wasn’t real but she didn’t know I knew (or did she?). In any case there was my Elephant waiting Christmas morning. YAY!

Hard to pick a gift card…um, Best Buy!

My Nana passed away just shortly before Christmas 2005. My uncle still hadher saying, “Merry Christmas. I love you.” on his answering machine from the year before. The next year, 2006, I called and listened to it. It was amazing hearing her voice again and the best present I could ever ask for.

As always, I’d choose Starbucks.

My most memorable gift was a nice laptop! If I were to win I would choose the starbucks GC!
cjnedrow@gmail.com

OK, dating myself here, but my most memorable gift was the year I got an Atari as a kid. Everyone wanted to come over and play because I was the only kid who got one in our building that year. Needless to say I’m still a tech head and if selected would love to win the Best Buy Card!

My most memorable Christmas gift was a weekend trip to a mountain cabin. I’d like to win the Starbucks card. Thanks for the giveaway!

My best memory is when I was 6 and received my first tv.

I would love the American express card.

My most memorable gift for Christmas was in 2005 my 3rd son being born on the 20th. I had a glimpse of what Mary felt like that Christmas. I would love the Starbucks GC. Thanks!

My favorite Christmas present was a Lori Walker doll. I wanted one so bad and a great uncle and aunt brought me one.

An E-Bay GC if I get lucky.
Thanks!

One of my most memorable Christmas gifts is a pair of diamond stud earrings that my then boyfriend, not husband gave me the first Christmas we were dating. For an 18yo, it was exciting. I should go get those out and put them in!

However, no practicality rules, I would like the ebay card.

KellyH

Let’s see, most memorable gift would have to be the discman I got in 6th grade. Dad hid it in the bookshelf so I thought all my gifts were unwrapped (a la A CHRISTMAS STORY). But then I saw it peeking out, and I was so thrilled! We drove to FL from NC every year to see my grandparents, so having that baby in the car to drown out my parents was KEY.

I’d love the Starbucks card because I can never justify buying those coffees myself. When I have a gift card, though, look out! Grande Mocha Frappuccino please!

One of my most memorable gifts was a birthstone ring when I was a child. My parents wrapped it up in a larger box, inside a larger box, inside a larger box….. I was very surprised and pleased when I finally got to the present.

I would choose the Barnes and Noble gift card.

1. My most memorable gift was a shiny blue pedal car when I was 5.
2. I would love the American Express card.

My most memorable Christmas gift (or one of them at least) was the year my grandmother gave me a coupon good for one day with her and two activities to do together–one sewing and one cooking. I chose making a fabric wreath and maple doughnuts. I LOVED that gift. So great. She did that for all of us grandkids, and also managed to make little stuffed muslin dolls with yarn hair that looked like us. Best gifts that year, hands down.

Other ?–Barnes and Noble.

Memorable gift: for some reason, I really remember a bright red shovel. We were living in Minneapolis, and snow was a way of life… I guess I thought shoveling (at six years old) would be a great way to spend time w my dad!

I’d love the Am Ex card!

Memorable Christmas Gift: The Cabbage Patch Doll I received when I was a kid.

GC: Ebay

My most memorable gift was a giant Raggedy Ann doll when I was 5. It was bigger than me and I had it in my room for years. I would love to win the eBay card thanks

My favorite gift was my pogo stick. I would like the Amex card. Thanks.

Ebay card for me.

When I was 6. I wanted a Chrissy doll and I knew my chances of getting it were very slim. My parents had just gone through a divorce and times were very tough. When I was done opening all of my presents on Christmas morning I didn’t have my doll. I was ok but disappointed. Then two hours later Santa came to our house and surprised me with the doll…..best Christmas ever!

I loved my Easy Bake oven and enjoyed making all the different types of food. I would like to have the Barnes and Noble gift card if I won.

barnes

My most memorable Christmas gift was my first Cabbage Patch Kid. I wanted that doll so bad and was elated to find it under the tree.

I’d choose the Ebay card.

The most memorable Christmas gift was the year my sister & I got a Poloraid camera….man we took pictures of everything! I’d choose the eBay card!

My most memorable christmas gift is a candle set that my now 7 year old picked out for me when she was 3. She did it all by herself and I still use it today. If I were to win, I’d love the Ebay giftcard. I’m a total ebay addict!

Framed photos. Love Barnes and Noble.

My most memorable Christmas gift was a Stuffed Wrinkles Dog when I was 3. I wanted one so badly and I still have her. I would love the eBay gift card.

My parents gave me a record player and money for cross country skis the same year that things were so tight we expected nothing for Christmas. I remember how hard they worked to ensure we were never disappointed.

I wouldn’t be disappointed in an American Express Giftcard either.

One of my favorite Christmas gifts was the area rug my parents got us for our living room. I had been wanting one, but we couldn’t afford the one I wanted. My parents surprised us with it!

I’d love to win the American Express gift card!

My favorite Christmas gift was my engagement ring!

I would love the American Express Giftcard :o)

Hmmm… Definately the computer. Barnes and Noble, please.

My would have to be a water baby when I was 4 or 5. Definitely American Express!

THE most memorable Christmas gift I ever received was from my Dad. One year he gave me a wooden ladder. He didn’t wrap it, but he did put a bow on it! I hadn’t asked for one, or even hinted, but I really needed it — my apartment had 12-foot ceilings and it was really hard to change light bulbs. I’ve had that ladder for over 20 years now, and the bow only fell off with this last move. (Sniff.) I’m very sentimental about my ladder, but people just think I’m weird!
I’d like the Barnes & Noble or American Express gift card if I am lucky enough to win. Thanks for the chance.
geebee.reads AT gmail DOT com

My favorite gift was the dollhouse
my dad built for me when I was nine.
I would like the American Express card.

My most memorable Christmas gift was a ring that my hubby gave me. He didn’t wrap it, he just hung it on an ornament on the tree at eye level.

I would like to win the Best Buy gift card.

Wow, the best gift ever? That’s alot of years to think about!
Hmmm………
I don’t know how old I was, maybe around 9? My mom got me a little Christmas music box. I still put it out every year and think about her, what our lives were like then and what they are like now.

Any would be great, but the BestBuy one would be the best. We’re (I mean the kids) are getting a Wii for Christmas and I imagine we will be buying stuff for it.

My most memorable childhood gift was the year my parents bought a new television. They wrapped the whole box up in the Sunday comics.

Oh, yeah, and I can’t decide right now between Starbucks and American Express, but one of the two.

Not really a present, but one Christmas morning a tiny black kitten wandered to my house. We weren’t really near any other houses, so my parents let me keep her! I was convinced that Santa had left her, so I named her Mary Christmas. I’d really like the Barnes & Noble gift card if I win.

My most memorial gift was when I unwrapped my engagement ring on Christmas
I would love the Ebay gift card.
Thank you so much!

My most memorable gift is two tickets to a Falcons playoff football game from my wife, who doesn’t like football. This was a last minute gift and the seats were in the nosebleed section, but it was an exciting game with a fantastic ending. My son and I loved this surprise gift.

I would select the American Express gift card. Thanks.

A puppy. I would like the Best buy card

My most memorable gift was when my dad gave me a coffee maker after I moved out on my own. Ironically, he was horrified by how much I was spending on my daily Starbucks habit- and I would like the Starbucks gift card. (in my defense, my coffee maker just bit the dust)kaytewatts AT aol DOT com

My most memorable Christmas gift was a book from my favorite teacher.

I would like the American Express gift card.

my most memorable gift was the time that i got a little puppy on christmas morning

oh yeah i would like an ebay card thanks!

My best Christmas memory was the year my sister and I were really sick with the flu, lying on the couch while everyone else opened gifts and laid ours on our stomachs. My favorite gift was from my sick sister, The Best of Aretha Franklin. Still love that cd! I would like the Barnes & Noble gift card.

My favorite was a fancy sewing machine. My card pick would be Barnes % Noble.

My most memorable Christmas gift would have to be a gift card my brother sent me in the mail 2 years ago. It was not the card that mattered, but who sent it because my brother was way out in Iraq fighting in the war and had been out of touch for a few months. Being out of touch for a while is common due to the fighting and having to be careful with coorespondence. But he had been out of touch so long I started to worry that something bad had happened. Then just before Christmas, I got his card in the mail. I started crying when I got it. I liked the card but loved knowing that my brother was okay and well even more.
If I were to pick, I’d like the Barnes and Noble gift card since I am a big reader. Thanks for entering me and Happy Holidays to you.

my most memorable christmas gift was a tea set I got from my parents when I was five. I played with it for years, and loved it. I’d choose American Express.

Thank you!!

My most memorable Christmas gift was Disney salt and pepper shakers that I was admiring at Disney World. My husband got them for me while we were there and I didn’t have a clue!

I’d chose the American Express card if I win.

Thanks!

a fruitcake

BestBuy

my wife is my most memorable gift since we married on Christmas day 25 years ago.
Best Buy since we need a new cammera.

My most memorable gift is the Tiffany’s necklace and bracelet my husband gave me. I had told him I wanted them, but never in a million years did I expect him to get them for me! I even bought myself a purse I really wanted and wrapped it up, because I figured I’d be a little disappointed that Christmas! He actually took the Tiffany’s boxes (inside their Tiffany’s bags) to Dillard’s to be wrapped in a larger box with Dillard’s wrapping paper to throw me off. It worked!

I’d love the American Express gift card. I’d give it to him so he could buy something he really wants, but hasn’t told me about!

Most memorable gift = a kitten from my dad, who HATED cats. I was probably 10ish. Named him Chriskit.

I would love the Amex give card

My most memorable gift was one year my husband gave me what I most wanted, a tea pot. But inside the teapot, which I almost didn’t open right away, were more packages…. of jewelry! I was shocked.

I would pick the Best Buy gc if I won.

my most memorable gift had to be the year i decided that their was no Santa… I dont really remeber the things I got I just remeber that we were at Grandma’s house so Santa came their but when i returned home Santa had been to my house too…(How could it be mom and dad they had been with me). in later years I found out that my father had givin someone a key to put out my stuff and then had driven 3 hours in the middle of the night to find a town that had a place open where he could buy a few things for grandma’s house..

I would take the barnes and noble card.. I need to get back to reading.

My most memorable gift was my Kitchenaid Mixer when we had no money, my husband managed so save his lunch money for almost a year! (He would bring yogurt and crackers for lunch) I couldnt believe it!!!
I would love a Starbucks card!

One year for Christmas my dad got my sister and I tool sets. He worked at Sears and was appalled to overhear us discussing at Thanksgiving that we both had purchased items that said “no tools needed” only to find out that they did require screwdrivers, which neither of us owned! No daughter of his shouldn’t own a screwdriver. Now we do - plus wrenches, hammers, pliers, drills, and other items I don’t know what to do with. I have used these tools A LOT over the years and it always gives me a chuckle. Now my husband uses them, too!

I would like a Barnes and Noble card. I’d spend it all on children’s books and donate them to the book driver our local store is having throughout the holidays.

My most memorable and cherished Christmas gift is after giving birth to a daughter 23 years ago and giving her up for adoption, to now have her in my life. It is the greatest feeling. Especially to be called MOM.

I cherish the last gift my Grandmother gave to me before she passed away. It’s a picture which is hanging in my kitchen that says “You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray” which reminds me of the song she always sang to me as a child. The American Express certificate would be wonderful. Thanks so much for the chance!

My most memorable gift is when my mom made me a afghan. I would love the Barnes & Noble card.

Hmm, my most memorable Christmas memory…So many to choose from! How about this one…In 2005, I agreed to spend the Christmas holiday in France and Belgium with my fiance and his family. JM and I would fly to Paris, spend a few days there and then take the train to meet up with his family in Belgium. On our second day in Paris, we visited the Eiffel Tower, and as we stood at the top, looking out at the rooftops of the city, JM proposed. We’ve been married a year now, and that was definitely a very special Christmas!

If I were to win, I’d have to pick the Barnes and Noble gift card. Nothing like a good book.:)

The most memorable Christmas gift was last year a $500 shopping spree for myself:0)

I got my engagement ring on Christmas Eve! I would love the Barns & Noble gift card! Thanks for the opportunity!

I love the new Nikon D40 camera that my husband bought me last year!!
I would love the Best Buy gift card so that I could help buy myself another lens to continue taking great pictures of my kids!!

My most memorable Christmas was when I was a little girl. We came home from my grandpa and grandma’s house and there it was. A big Barbie Dream House. I was a very happy girl.

A laptop computer
The Best Buy card

A Baby Alive doll when I was little.

My most memorable gift is a bracelet that my mom gave me for Christmas. I love Starbucks so that will be my choice if I win.

My favorite Christmas gift was my first watch! It was a red Minnie Mouse watch and I LOVED it!

I would probably choose the AmEx Gift Card. That’s a hard choice though!

Forgot to say STARBUCKS! I awoke one Christmas morning to wet puppy kisses! I finally got the dog I’d wanted; and, Mom & Dad had put him on the bed to wake me up Christmas morning. Nothing has ever topped that, though a few things have come close.

My most memorable Christmas gift ever was the Panasonic tape recorder I got in the first grade. I used to love to record everything - conversations, tv programs, whatever. I used also make “variety shows” or The Gong Show with my sister and record them! I would choose the American Express card.

My most memorable Christmas gift ever was surprise visit from an old friend. I’d love the Banres & Noble giftcard-thanks!

My most memorable Christmas gift was a pair of leather chaps and a vest from my rancher great-grandfather when I was 7. I wore them out before I outgrew them - rare for a kid that grew as fast as I did.

My most memorable Christmas gift is a diamond tennis bracelet my husband got me when I was pregnant with our first. It seriously could have been made out of plastic, but it was the fact that he thought of it himself and worked with a jeweler to have it made.

I would love the B&N card

hematopoiesis at hotmail dot com

My most memorial gift is my MP3 player that my daughter picked out for me. Why that’s so memorable, is that I picked out the same one for her. Great minds think alike.

I’d love to win the Barnes & Noble gift card! Thanks so much for this contest.

Most memorable christmas gift was a ‘rock tumbler’ (where it polishes rocks into precious gems for you). ha, ha. Thanks for a great giveaway. I would choose starbucks.

My most memorable gift I will always remember was when I was only 11 yrs. old! .. It was a safari rifle that shot plastic bullets that could be retreived and shot again, again and again! .. It had a big white elephant carved on the stock-butt what makes me remember because I never could pronounce elephant as a child! .. If my name is selected, I’d like the eBay gift card!

My most memorable Christmas was the first one my sister was working. She bought the family that first Atari console. My parents would have never bought something like that. I would love the Barnes and Noble giftcard to buy more books!

My most memorable Christmas gift is probably the Barbie jeep I got one year when I was six or seven. You know, those battery-operated cars that little kids could drive themselves around the neighborhood or something? Oh man. It was SWEET. And pink. I was totally into it.

I’d probably go for the Best Buy card Movies and CDs for the win!

My most memorable gift was my Nintendo DS. And I would love the Barnes & Noble giftcard.

My most memorable was my school jacket from middle school. My sisters were getting their high school jackets that year and I badly wanted a school jacket. Mom said not until high school but under the tree that year was my middle school jacket. I still have it.

Best Buy would be the card I’d want.

My most memorable Christmas gift was a three foot tall Raggedy Ann. I got her when I was 12. When I saw her up on a high shelf in the store, I told my mother that’s all I wanted for Christmas and offered all sorts of promises if I actually got her. I never dreamed she would eventually be mine, so that Christmas morning when she was under the tree, I remember crying because I was so happy. (My parents later told me she had been kept in the basement until the special day almost in plain site. They couldn’t believe I never stumbled onto her hiding there.)
Thanks again Mom and Dad for a Christmas to remember.

Definitely Barnes & Noble. I’d use it to get books for my classrooom.

My best holiday present was a family trip to Venezuela.

My most memorable gift was a doll i had wanted so bad.. I really didnt think i was going to get it

My most memorable Christmas present is a Tiffany&Co bracelet that my parents got for me. =)
I would really like to win the BestBuy gift card. Thanks. =)

From all of my other Christmas gifts over the years, my most memorable and favorite gift given to me was a doll. The doll had blue eyes and thick black hair. It wore a white, frilly dress and hat. It was a present given to me by my aunt. I was never the type to like dolls; their eyes have always freaked me out. Back then, when I was seven, I thought why in the world would she give me a doll? But I soon learned that she loved me, but couldn’t figure out a way to show that, so she gave me the doll. She spent several months saving money to buy it for me. I have never opened the doll, because I fear that I would break it, since I was really clumsy (and still am >.<). It was so precious to me. Today, I still have that doll. In my closet, the doll is gathering dust. But I would take it out on days that I am not in my best. From just looking at it, I remember the memories of great times I had with my aunt. And yes, I have gotten over my fear of a doll’s eyes.

I would like the Barnes and Noble Gift Card, please.

My most memorable gift is this adorable t-shirt with a cut cat and a Japanese design on it!

I would love Best Buy!

My most memorable gift was this little yellow pony my brother got me when I was very young… I’d asked for “My Little Pony” ponies, but he’d gotten me an off brand and it ended up being my very favorite pony ever. I honestly played with it EVERY day!

I’d be happy with ANY of the five gift cards (really!), but I think I’d prefer Barnes&Noble. =]

American Express

My most memorable Christmas gift was a birthstone ring from daughter. I would love to win the Barnes & Noble gift card. Love curling up with a good book in the winter.

I sure love my gift of Buffy the vampire season 8 comics…that was a good memory!

and I would love the american express one.

My most memorable gift was a belt I received from my boyfriend at the time. He had remembered me looking at it, and went back and bought it.

I’d like the American Express GC. Thanks!

oinkmoobaa(at) yahoo (.) com

My most memorable Christmas
gift was a handmade angel from
my daughter.
I’d love to win the Amex GC!
Thanks!

My most memorable gift was when my best friend phoned me on Christmas night. She’d been hospitalized for melanoma cancer, and was too sick for much of anything. That was the last time I talked with her. But I was joyous when I heard her voice over the phone. I got to tell her I love her.

I would choose the American Express card.

Last year, my TV had completely died in the middle of October! I ended up just using the small one that was in my room. My parents had an extra tv that they said i could have after xmas…it was a good size one. But on Christmas when i went to their house they had bought me a 42″ plasma!! I could have cried!! It was such a surprise!!

I would choose the Barnes and Noble card, my brother asked me to buy him some books for xmas!!

My mom memorable gift is a necklace my brother gave me. He picked out the charm and then bought a chain to go with it. It was thoughtful and personal and just all around better since my little brother thought of it.

I would pick the Barnes & Noble card.

When we were little, our parents got me and my sister fake white fur coats. OMG did we think we were fabulous in them. I always remember those coats.

I would love the American Express GC.

Thanks.

My most memorable christmas gift is a cabbage patch doll when I was about 7. If I won I’d like the American Express card - this would be great for christmas shopping!

My most memorable Christmas gift was a beagle puppy. I would choose Best Buy.

My most memoriable gift - a doll with hair that grew. I’d like Amex gift card

The most memorable gift I ever “got” was when my in-laws pretended someone else must have opened my present earlier because they got me nothing. That just sticks in my craw.
I’d like the American Express card, if I win.

My most memorable Christmas gift wasn’t actually a gift that you could hold. It was a gift of learning the lesson of helping and sharing. When I was about 6 years old, my parents decided that my sisters and I should donate at least one of our presents to give to a family who didn’t have much to give to their children. We were at first shocked that we would have to give away one of our new presents that we hadn’t even played with yet. My parents sat up down and told us about gifts from the heart. Needless to say, we each gave up 2 of our presents and went with our parents to drop them off to the family. Just seeing their faces when they got their gifts is something that I won’t ever forget.
I would be thrilled with any of these great gift cards but would prefer the American Express or Ebay card the most.
Thank you for the nice giveaway and for reminding me of days gone by.

My most memorable gift was a sled. I was the youngest in a large family and I never had a new sled for myself. My parents thought it was a dumb choice, and it was all I wanted that year. Normally it doesn’t snow that much near Christmas in NJ and it was even predicted to be a mild winter. Well…guess what… Christmas Eve brought, SNOW. and True to my dad’s word he took me sledding the first time it snowed after I got it.So I got to sled on Christmas Day!– As an adult I would enjoy the practicality of the AMEX gift card as I could use it anywhere I wished vs. a specific store or website (although the bay one is incredibly tempting too). This is one great offer, and recipes, YAY,.. I cook when i visit my friends houses. Even the ones who never eat treats beg me to bring some along. Thanks for your holiday generosity and great recipes.

My most memorable gift was a teddy bear from my big sister - I still have it. I’d like the American Express card.

Barbie doll house, and I would like the Starbucks card please
jceko77@yahoo.com

My favorite Christmas present would have to be a horse. Yes, I actually got a horse for Christmas! My parents said it was because I wouldn’t shut up about having one from the time I was about 5, so when I turned 10 they bought me an ancient pony to learn to ride on. I learned to ride alright, and also fall off in several different ways as he was a tricky little guy.

1. I think the best gift I’ve ever been given is a signed copy of Glass Houses by Rachel Caine.
2. I’d love the Ebay card, but I don’t really care as long as it’s not Starbucks.

My favorite Christmas gift was my youngest son. He was born Dec 15th, so I call him my early Christmas present!

I would like the American Express Card if I won.

Hand in clay from my kids.
I’d like any of the GC’s except ebay.

My most memorable gift I haven’t received yet, but I will this Christmas! My grandson is due anytime between now and Dec. 19th. He will be the best Christmas gift ever!

I think my most memorable Christmas gift was when my husband bought me a marble rolling pin and a sifter - except we were flying to his parent’s house and he had to convince airport security that they were gifts! I would love the AmEx card!

My most memorable Christmas present was a large doll about the size of me when I was a little girl. It walked along with me when I pulled it along by the hand…it was magical to me at the time.

When I was around 11 years old my grandma gave me her old tiny TV so I could have one in my room. I was so excited! I still have the TV in a spare room.

As a child my most memorable Christmas was the one where I wanted a piano so bad. That year my dad was working night shift, and of course we were up really early and we waited for him to come home, it was a long wait but worth to get my piano

I would choose Ebay!

Most memorable gift was my little lapdog my oldest got me after a surgery since my other dogs hurt me when they tried to snuggle/cuddle. He’s my little pal.
I’d like the American Express GC please.

My most memorable gift was a Moon Crawler, which broke almost immediately. I took it apart and played with the parts for quite a long time — still have the astronaut sitting on my monitor. I’d take the Amex GC.

Getting a scientific calculator for Christmas is one gift I can’t forget. I didn’t expect to get it at all.

I’d love to get the Barnes & Noble gift card, but the AMEX card is nice too.

My most memoralbe Chritmas gift was when I got a She-Ra doll and her castle. I would play with them for hours.

I would pick the eBay

My most memorable gift was a stuffed animal. A large Unicorn. It was 1983 and I was 13 years old.

Two days prior to Christmas, I walked into the garage looking for some clean socks. There was a Unicorn lying on the garage floor. I knew it was for me. I picked it up, brushed it off and put it back on the bench it was lying beside.

That evening, my mother asked me if I had seen my present. I knew how sick she was and I didn’t want to disappoint her by ruining her surprise so I lied and said, “No.” My mom always knew when I was lying! She told me she had been in a hurry and saw that the unicorn had fallen to the floor but didn’t have time to pick it back up. She knew I must have placed it back on that bench.

When I admitted I had seen the Unicorn my mom asked me if I would help her wrap the other presents for my siblings. My mom and I wrapped together that year. That time spent together remains so precious to me. My beautiful mother died of breast cancer three months later.

1. My most memorable Christmas gift is the red rider bb gun with a compass and stock and this THING which tells time…as a joke from the parents.
2. American Express card

My favorite Christmas memory is getting a chalk board from Santa so I could “teach” my stuffed animals! I just loved getting the chalk board. I grew up to be a teacher! I would love to get the American Express card. All of them would be great, but I think AmEx would be the best for me right now.
Thanks!

A raggedy anne doll. To this day, I remember seeing her under the tree. Now I’d like a Best Buy card under my tree.

My memorable gift was a keyboard when I was 9. My sister got a saxophone the same year. I also remember getting my first real bike when I was 11.

I wouldn’t mind getting any of them. But I do not want the Starbucks card. So I guess I would want the Barnes and Nobles, Ebay, Best Buy, or American Express.

My gift was a baby’s firsts plate that my mom got me when I was a couple of months pregnant with my daughter. It’s one of my absolute favorite things in the world. I’ve tried so hard to find another one so that I could have one for both of my girls but I just can’t find another one. I would choose the American Express if I were lucky enough to win. thanks so much!

My most memorable Christmas gift was an acoustic guitar autographed by James Morrison (my favorite singer) that my sister surprised me with (to say the least) last Christmas. She had somehow managed to carry a guitar to the stage door after one of his concerts and got him to personally autograph it for me — I was so touched by the gesture, and I’ll treasure it always!

I’d prefer the Barnes and Noble card, if I were lucky enough to win — thanks!

My new husband heard me say I would like a Gucci bag, so on Christmas morning he presented me with a Gucci paper shopping bag — with nothing in it.

good contest

My most memorable gift was a long beanie with a tassle on the end. I was about 12 or so and we didn’t have much money, but I got what I asked for. I would love the Best Buy gift card.

My most memorable Christmas was way back when I was pre-teen. I thought Christmas was going to be totally ruined. There was seven of us living in a three bedroom single wide trailer. My cousin got sick on Christmas Eve and we just knew she had a stomach bug because just a few minutes after she started throwing up my sister was sick too. I knew without a doubt my turn was coming. I waited … and waited … and waited but I never got sick and neither did anyone else in our house. We woke up on Christmas morning and it was as if no one had ever been sick. Later that day my Aunt discovered these empty chocolate covered cherry boxes. Turns out that my cousin and my sister had gotten into my Aunts ’stash’ of candy and had devoured it all and that is what made them sick. I was spared!
If I were to win this giveaway I would like the American Express gift card.

When I was little, all I wanted was the game “Operation” and I remember when I got it, it was the best present ever. THANKS!

Would like Best Buy please.
THANKS

Sitting on the beach at sunrise with my new (one month old) daughter, my sweet husband , and brand new puppy on Christmas morning in Fort Lauderdale, is my happiest Christmas memory. I can remember that day like it was yesterday, and I can still picture it in my mind like a photograph. It didn’t matter that we had no money for fancy decorations, or presents. Instead we had our lives ahead, and beautiful beginnings.

a new flat screen tv best by for me please

My most memorable Christmas gift would be my “charming” clock. It sits in my living room to this day. It is so beautiful!
I would choose the amex card, I can use that for anywhere, including much needed groceries.

Thank you for the great giveaway!

My most memorable gift was probably a hair dryer. I was a teen and we were in bad shape financially so I didn’t expect anything, but mom got me a blow dryer that I really needed (my hair was really long and it took forever to dry). It lasted for YEARS! I’d love the Amex card. Thanks for the giveaway!

My most memorable Christmas gift was given to me by my grandmother when I was 21 years old (I am 29 now). It was a large rectangular tablecloth that she has embroiderd a beautiful Greek Key Design around the entire border of the tablecloth (she is 100% Greek). This was the most beautiful gift anyone could have given me. It was especially meaningful to me because my grandmother was suffering from very painful arthritis in her hands and in spite of it she worked her little hands embroidering this tablecloth for me so I would always have it in my home to remember her by. Oh my gosh, I am starting to cry as I am typing. I still have it in my home and cherish it each and every day! My grandmother died a few years later so it was the last gift from her that I received and it is priceless to me. I would choose the Ebay or American Express GC but I would be happy to have any one of them really! Thank you so much for letting me share my story and for the opportunity to enter.

My most memorable Christmas gift was a pair of earrings that my husband wrapped and stuck in the toe of my boots. I would love a gift card to Barnes and Noble.

My most memorable gift was when my daughter received an (unexpected) christmas gift in the mail from her birthmother. She was only two at the time but her birthmother had sent a cute stuffed animal and a card that said she loved her. It meant a lot to my husband and I and I know it will for her as she gets older.

My most memorable Christmas was 1987. My little brother was born on Dec.22 and him and my mom came home from the hospital on Christmas Eve. They brought him home in a big stocking. He still uses that stocking at its bigger then anyone elses,but thats o.k:)

I think the American Express card sounds great!!

My most memorable gift was the video game called Pong. It was one of the first video games that could hook up to a tv. To play the game you moved your curser to hit the ball. that was it! But my brother and I had a blast playing it.

I would like the Barnes & Noble gift card.

My most memorable gift was from when I was a child and my parents bought us girls a Nintendo! We were so excited! I’d want the Barnes and Noble gift card if I won as I love to read.

My most memorable gift was my 3 speed bike with hand brakes when the rest of the kids in the neighborhood still had regular bikes with fat tires and brakes that worked with the pedals. I thought it was so neat that you could make the pedals go backward while you were riding forward. Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this giveaway!

Christmas at 7yrs old I recieved a cowgirl hat and boots. My mother bought my sister a pony for $28 at a local auction. She looked like a cow.
I would like Ebay gift cert to buy grandon cowboy boots!

It was the year of my purple phase. I was in the 7th grade and asked that any gift that I received had to be purple. My friends and relatives humored me, and it was like Barney had exploded in our living room. I had purple up the wazoo, and I was one very satisfied teenager.
If I win, I’d like the Barnes and Noble gift card, thanks.

My most memorable gift was my Barbie Airplane set. It was way better than the townhouse b/c you could pretend it flew which satisfied the latent Tomboy in me. I would prefer the BestBuy gift certificate to further satisfy the latent Tomboy in me. Thanks.

My most memorable Christmas gift was a homemade ornament sent to my son by his “secret Santa” on a parenting forum. It looked just like a gingerbread cookie, and had his name imprinted on it.

I’d love Barnes and Noble!
