What should I do with my $25 gift card? poll

Lanerbell · March 2011

Dammit, I can't do a clicky poll on my phone. Should I put my $25 visa giftcard towards my hair cut on Thursday or a new dress from Target's spring dress event? Or are you a special snowflake?

I'm finally getting the Vanessa Hudgens cut, I'm so excited! I'm going to get a new dress to celebrate the final filing of my divorce papers on the 30th. So I'm going to purchase both choices no matter what.

If you're going to purchase both, does it really make a difference? Maybe if you get credit card rewards points at one of those 2 places it would make a difference, but I don't see why it matters.

Whichever you do first. Free money tends to burn a hole in the pocket

What Aslee said makes total sense, but for some reason my first though was "Put it towards the dress." lol Actually, I'd put it towards whichever one costs the most. I think it would trick me into thinking that I wasn't spending as much money.

When you put it that way I guess it doesn't matter. I personally get a little joy out of getting something for free or at a discount, so I guess I'm asking what you think would bring more saving money satisfaction.

Okay. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something!

This is how I tend to look at it!

Money wise, I suppose it doesn't matter like Ashlee said. But, I'd probably put it toward the dress b/c it's usually easier to use visa, mastercard whatever cards at stores like that. Target's cc machine does it automatically I think. Versus, a salon would probably have to do 2 transactions and it'd be a pain for them.

I'd probably put it toward the dress. I'd feel like I was getting myself something special with it instead of using it for something that I do several times throughout the year. It doesn't really matter but it would make me feel good to use it on the dress.
