    If I win the Gift card I will purchase something for two of my friends for Christmas and replace some books that were required to be discarded due to my previous apartment being contaminated by meth.
    I reeeeally could use this to buy for my two guy friends for Christmas! I’m at a loss as what to get them that I can afford!

    I teach 4th grade so I would spend my $100 on some great novels for my kids to read. As we all know, teachers don’t make a lot of money and we always end up spending our own money to get our classrooms stocked full of books. $100 would really help me out a lot! I love reading and really try hard to share my love of reading with my kids. There are so many great books out there that kids aren’t exposed to. Thanks so much!

    This is a great giveaway and since we were pretty busy with kids sports all summer long, I would love to win this and I would split the $100 four ways. $25 for each of my three daughters to find a book or two to get them back into the swing of things with school starting soon. Then the last $25 would be for me to buy a couple of the beach read books I wanted but didn’t have time for this summer.

  • Nina

    I would use it for the Warrior series books by Erin Hunter for my son since that is the first books he had been excited about!

    I would spend a $100 Borders gift card on medical books for my daughter who is starting high school in the fall. After a battle with cancer she has decided to enter the medical field and is looking forward to making a career as a Pediatric Surgeon. She was cleared of cancer thanks to a wonderful pediatric surgeon and his team!

    GREAT giveaway!! Here’s what I’d spend the gift card on (as I posted on my entry):

    My daughter’s 16th birthday is in August and I would buy a lot of her birthday gift at Borders! We spend time there each weekend browsing, sipping a favorite coffee or frozen drink (and an awesome baked good), and picking up our book of the week! We LOVE Borders!! It’s our favorite mom & daughter hang out spot!!

    I love that Borders gives me another opportunity to remain close to my teen!! <3
