If you had about $100 credit with Amazon?
What would you buy?

Not books though, I've already got a gob to get to on my kindle.

Thanks in advance for help with this first world problem.

That's a tough one...$100 is enough to be useful but no enough to go nuts.

If it were me I would stock up on stuff I use regularly: Keurig pods, car detailing supplies, phone case/charger/battery type stuff.

Batteries, 123s most likely.

What do you need right now that you have to buy anyway? Camera, phone, computer, TV, speakers, sun shade for your car, shoes, fat pants. Whatever. What do you need?

I'm in the same boat with a $50 gift card from Amazon. They have a pretty good selection of knives. I've bought from them before and have been very happy.

add a few bucks and buy a Gransfors Bruk small forest axe. That's what is on my want list right now Wink

I'd probably spend a lot more than $100.

A Blue Force Gear VCAS sling and a pair of 5.11 Vaporlite shorts.

Two things that I need more of right now.

A knife. I don't know which one in particular, but some knife.

A good flashlight or some nice headphones.
These are the last two items I recently purchased on Amazon. I'm pleased with both.
Fenix Flashlights FX-PD35TAC Flashlight, 1000 Lumen for $80 and Sennheiser HD280PRO for $100.

I spend a lot of money on Amazon... today's purchases include a pair of rotors and shocks for my 73 Nova. Their prices on car parts can be very good.

Things we buy monthly: Pur Gum, pure maple syrup, diapers, baby wipes, vitamins.

Though if I had a $100 gift card I'd use it to get our new firepit. We need one.

1) Get a generic gift card and envelope.
2) Place Amazon card inside
3) Hide in your favorite hide
4) Retrieve for redemption for the next anniversary, birthday etc you forget!



If it ain't woke... don't fix it.

I buy everything on Amazon.
From underwear to dog treats and toys to vitamins/supplements to kitchen knives and then some..

Kinda depends on what you need...

Kids gave me a $100 Amazon gift card for Father's Day.
I needed a casual watch and it had to be solar and atomic.

I bought this watch and added this BluShark AlphaShark - Bond 20MM band to it.

Put it towards a benchmade knife?

I've got $120 in Amazon credit right now just waiting for me.

I buy loads of stuff from them (200+ orders per year).

Shoes. I only shoeshop on amazon. Saves a lot of money. I got my dash cam for my wifes car on amazon too. Car parts. Pet food. Diapers.

Maybe that's not fun stuff for you. Just ideas!
