DISQUS

Steve McGrath · 1 year ago

I think I will buy more domains to increase my web empire, spend it on Blu-Ray movies or buy a webcam. Maybe I will do all of them since it's CHRISTmas.

Good Luck to All

Anurag Bhateja · 1 year ago

First of all thanks a lot for such a contest. I will use the prize money in three parts. 1st part will go for the food of chipmunks around me. Sounds funny I know, but these days those little cuties are giving me such great poses to click that I have got a big 300+ collection in just a month!
Second part will go for Christmas and new year celebrations.
Lastly third part I will keep it as it is in my paypal account for future urgency.
I really faced hell lot of financial problems in last two years and know how this can hit you when you do not find money to survive. So keeping a share for urgency will be good for me.

Normal Joe · 1 year ago

Yeaaaaaaaah boyeeeeeeeeeee! I've been grinding over here but it's good to see you back at it man, you know I'm always ready to help dude!

I'm going to use that money to either buy me some marketing books, or pay off the heater service I just had completed on my home! :mrgreen:

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah boyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Robb Sutton (198) · 1 year ago

With the 200.00? It would go towards my MacBook Pro fund. I am still running off of a dual 1 ghz G4 MDD...time to upgrade!

Robb Sutton (198) · 1 year ago

I am subscribed to the list...I am not sure why it came up N.

Wayne Liew · 1 year ago

As I am trying to relaunch my personal blog, this $200 will definitely help stretching my budget for an upcoming blog redesign for Year 2009.

barbarabaker · 1 year ago

If I were to win (Hi Joe, John, everyone...Merry Christmas!) I'd spend everything on the kiddos. My littlest one's been wanting a vTech system (can buy used at amazon) and my middle child wants the Hannah Montana guitar that you plug directly into the TV (like those little controllers they have out now for instant game play) and well, my fifteen year old son wants to go to his first rock band concert in Febrary so I figured I'd give him what ever was left on the card so that he can buy a T-shirt and what have you while he's there. It's all about my kids this year!!!!

I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas this year!!!!!!

Joseph Ratliff · 1 year ago

Cannot login to my Squidoo account for some reason...oh well.

With the $200.00...I would give $100.00 of that to a local charity here that helps to feed the homeless around Christmas.

The other $100.00 I would rent 3 domains that I intend to use for 2009 in promotion of a new ebook I have coming out...and the remaining $70.00 or so...

I would probably take my wife out to dinner.

Looks like a great contest. Good luck with it all.

Derek Epperson · 1 year ago

Thanks to you and your sponsors for putting up the contest and prizes.

What would I do with the money?
I'd probably put it into my wife's new home-based business she is starting: Scentsy which looks to be a great thing for WAHMs and candle lovers.

Thanks JohnCow.

kotsengkuba · 1 year ago

Finally, a Christmas contest. $200 would be great pocket money when I go back home to Philippines this Christmas. I'll buy me a bagful of home goodies.

Thank you for the contest John! I've been subscribed to your stuff for some time now.

If I win US$200 I will buy a few self-improvement ebooks, and donate some to the poor in my neighbourhood, pay some bills. I will also keep $30 for "rainy days".

BTW, thanks to you I found COMMENTMILK!

Jason · 1 year ago

I would use the money to make a child in need Christmas merry by ensuring he and/or she has gifts under the tree Christmas morning. I would do it without anyone knowing who was responsible or how it was done. I get the greatest joy by serving others under the radar. God Bless and Merry Christmas

Water Test Kits

Ben Moreno · 1 year ago

If I win the money i will give $100 away to my subscribers. With the other $100 I would buy a bunch of JohnCow recommended products.

Emma · 1 year ago

I celebrate Christmas and I would like to wish you a hardy Merry Christmas! Also I'm sorry to hear that you were going through some rough times. Now I understand why you left a couple things unfinished. I'm also very glad to hear that things are getting sorted out. Life seems to have a way of working out like that. Anyway if I won my first thought would be to buy a new chair for my office. Blogging at home in comfort. It doesn't get much better then that. But I think I would actually be more practical and spend the 200 domains and then use the proceeds of my work to buy the chair. Kind of a practical challenge and goal. Have a Wonderful Christmas, Emma :smile:

goblogging · 1 year ago

There're quite many to buy. :smile: Btw, I'll use that $200 for buying some computer equipments such as UPS and new monitor.

David · 1 year ago

I will use the money toward paying some bills. I'm a college student with little money so anything is better than nothing.

David Miller · 1 year ago

I would use the money to buy a late Christmas present for my wife of 22 years. My blog is not making any money yet and my disability check (Social Security) didn't go far enough on buying Christmas presents so she said I could wait on hers. Is she special, or what?

If I was to win the $200.00 I would either use it to buy much needed heating fuel, (we live in the high mountains and it is very cold here), or to buy the special food my son and I have to eat.

Our family became very ill 5 years ago after living for 5 years in a very moldy home. Our son almost died, as well as my husband, we had to walk away from everything we owned, and lost much of our health. This was in Indiana, and due to the extreame moist conditions, we had to move to the mountains of Colorado where it is dry, and we are not so sick anymore.

Unfortunatly, we did not leave in time to stop the severe asthma in our son, food and chemical allergies in myself, and our son, (I cannot eat anything proccessed at all!), I have fibromyalgia, arthritis, and many other aillments due to the mold, my husband has COPD, and severe spinal stenosis. Neither of us have been able to work for almost 5 years, and social security swept us under a rug and forgot us. We care for our 20 year old severely autistic son, and he ended up getting very ill as well.

Needless to say, we are in great need, and to win $200.00 right now would be such a huge Blessing, I could not even begin to tell you how grateful all of us would be!

Charissa · 1 year ago

I will use the money to build on to my niche sites. :smile:

Lailah · 1 year ago

I would spend the $200 on more products I use for the Goddess Workshops I facilitate. And...maybe some new sexy heels :wink:

Hey Mr Cow.... I am all done on all 4 steps and look forward to receiving the $200 in my account... ok that's jumping the gun but I am happy to be a part of the comp :)

danandmarsh · 1 year ago

If I was to win I would put it in savings for when the housing market drops so we can finally afford to buy one for retirement! Can hardly wait. Done Christmas shopping
Squidoo comment left, user name above.
If counting right I have 8 entries!

George · 1 year ago

Best wishes for the Holidays. I hope you and yours have a safe and joyful holiday season.

If I had an extra $200, I would buy some special treats for the family Christmas party and get a nice `secret Santa` gift for my brother. Any money left over will go to a few people in need of financial support. I`ll spread the love around as much as I`m able.

Forest · 1 year ago

Ooops I forgot to say what I would spend it on!! I would use it to pay for a snowboarding trip for my girlfriend this Christmas :)

Shawn · 1 year ago

I would use this money to help my parents out so they can buy fuel and food. Since my dad has been out of work for a few months they haven't had much money to get by on but $200 would really help them out a lot.

Skyroja · 1 year ago

I am sure I will invest it in my blog, directly to promotion (maybe will ask for a review at Johncow.com :) ). And this promotion later will bring me N x $200.

What I can say, I am learning from the best - You.

Glad you give us opportunities! Happy CHristmas!

Dude World Order · 1 year ago

Good to hear things are starting to get better Cow!

My wife wont let me buy a Wii coz we cant afford it. But if I won $200, then we can afford it and she cant say no! BAHAHAHAHAHA!!! (evil laugh)

Mary Rogers · 1 year ago

I would use the money to buy daughter something for christmas. Hubby was in a bad car accident this year and hasn't worked in 6 months. We had to move in with family cause i was just a stay at home mom at the time of the accident and only could find a job working parttime so we could really use to extra money to get our family something for christmas. I've twittered it,followed you and even added my email to your feed.

Forest · 1 year ago

:( I don't want to win now... the money can go to a better cause than mine.

Daniel · 1 year ago

I would spend it to pay for Syndicate Kahuna subscription for sure. I wanted to get the service but suddenly the industry I am working in shrinking at least 50% due to credit crisis.

Spending on something that lasted forever such as Syndicate Kahuna would be the most meaningful investment. It would be like a cash cow that generate traffics for free.

By the way, I am confused. What is the differences between Traffic Kahuna and Syndicate Kahuna?

Nicholas Chase · 1 year ago

Hi Johncow,

Great contest. I would use the money to purchase four-each $50.00 gift cards and distribute to families in crisis at our local hospital's social services office.

Merry Christmas John, you rock!

Nice contest -- thanks for the opportunity.

Without a doubt, here's what I'd do with the money...

I would give all of it--every penny--to some Christians I know in Zimbabwe who are suffering due to the massive inflation crisis going on there. The situation is horrible over there, and the government is quite stubborn and almost seems content to let the country go to waste.

My church supports a pastor over there and in fact he was with us in the States just 2 months ago...the situation he described was as bad as you may have read about in the news lately. But to me these people aren't just a news story in some far away country...they are real and through my church I have somewhat of a connection there. With this connection I have a way to get the money there quickly, and I *know* it will be used to feed people in the name of Christ. Thanks for your consideration.

And the other half of course will be deposited in my bank -- for future use (emergencies, etc.) (:

I would use the money to do something special for my wife. She had to get a part time job to help with our finances, and we have our 25th anniversary coming up so I would probably buy her a nice gift, and take her out for dinner and a movie.

Hehe...okay, looks like I've joined the ranks of multiple commenters as I forgot to explain how I'd spend the money. doh!

I'd use it to buy something nice for my wife this Christmas or her birthday next month if the timing is better. She's always been the type who puts other people's needs ahead of her own, so I'd like to put her at the front of the line by giving her something she wants, but just hasn't made it a priority.

Thanks to John Chow for this great opportunity :)

Pheak Tol · 1 year ago

If i do win this contest, I will probably try to look for a charity in relation to my country that's in crisis at this moment. Not war, or any political crisis, but the poverty and number of orphaned kids out there being traffic at borderlined countries for a mere buck or two...it's christmas and I pretty much have everything that I needed, family and friends so I'd rather give as much as I can to the people that really needs it.

Causticbelveder(e) · 1 year ago

With this money, I plan to finish saving for a ring for my girlfriend so we can get married before the end of next year!!! I am currently about $200 short of my "ring goal". If this works I can blog about how my blogging, Johncow's book, and now this contest allowed me to realize my dream of marrying this wonderful woman in my life!!

Sandy McFerren · 1 year ago

Well sir, first things first.
I would spend the money on building my first website and buy the domain and hosting for the first year. That would give me the time I need to build my business not a blog.
I do have that document and I am reading it and implementing it as I go through it. Well written.
I already have a couple of the tools recommended and now with your help, maybe they will earn their keep.

About your squidoo lens: http://www.squidoo.com/After-a-Break-Up.
It is very well put together and well written. Your links seem to be all working. '

All steps completed!
Unfortunately I missed the date?? December 22, today is 23rd I believe. Strange that I missed this post on my rss reader as I generally read your posts.
Ah well, what do ya do eh?

Anyway, I like the whole concept of social marketing. People helping people and all that. I hope to build a network of marketing friends to help me with my marketing efforts too. My Squidoo lens's, blog, stumbles, Hubs and all that.

Were I to win $200 I would add it to my Christmas shopping list. I am still struggling with what to get for my girlfriend and my son and a shopping budget that is worse than I have had in years, even when I was in college. My son wants Caotic Cards and the wife is hoping for a nice bottle of perfume.

$200 Christmas Giveaway would help me complete Christmas in my home.

Cheers!!
