While America drowns in debt, I seem to be going the other way… but I don’t exactly have a ton of money.
It seems as though I’ve started a little collection of gift cards, certificates, and the like. I finally used up the money to the cards I had at Wal-Mart (thanks, Bingo) and Burlington Coat Factory (thanks, Mom), but I still have a lot of little things to use up. I’ve got some money to spend at the iTunes Music Store (thanks, Secret Santa), FYE/Strawberries (thanks, Wally and Nancy), and a bunch to use at Amazon and random places online. So as long as I can creatively buy products at certain places, I’ll be all set.
My favorite thing to do with Amazon gift money is to buy lots of free-after-rebate stuff. For a nominal charge of $0.37 and some time (that is, if you choose Super Saver Shipping), you can essentially turn Amazon money into real money. I guess I’m off to find some free stuff at Amazon (ya hear that, Bezos? gimme stuff!).
