My husband and I would take a much needed vacation and spend some quality self care time together.

I would take one of my cousins to dinner alone with the other cousins who can afford the dinner, this cousin cannot afford a dinner out so I would do her the joy and take her out for dinner for a beautiful day with family members. She is a beautiful person and a good hearted person with  kind ways and a beautiful disposition. Yes this is what I would do for her. We would have to wear our masks and stay safe while being out. Make reservations first at a restaurant for safety purposes. She would love that. We haven't been out for dinner sense the panic and this would be a great day for her and the rest of the family as well. There will be about 7 of us that will go. This would be awesome for all of us sense we haven't been able to be together in a while now. Great time of year to do this. God bless us all.

I would give it to the clerk at a convenience store to anonymously pay for people's purchases until it ran out...I'd be just another random person in the store while it happened. I have always wanted to do something like this.  🙂

I'd kidnap my sister and take her on a day trip. We don't get anywhere near enough time together.

Sounds like a winner. I would take my cousin out to dinner and the rest of the sisters it would be about 7-8 of us. I would pay for her dinner and the rest of them pay their own. I would very much like to do this because she can't afford to go on her own. Even though I can't really afford it but with a day off and $200 I would do that and save the rest of the money. I don't like spending all of my money at one time but this I would do for her. I love her a lot. I would check AARP to see where I could take her but at the same time be safe out there with masks on and stay away from other people to be safe.

A day off and $200? I would probably book a night at one of those hotels with a hot tub in room, yes! That's what I would do. I miss water so much and pools are still closed. 

I'd get bubbles and watch a good movie, take a long, long bath, drink some wine, eat some cheese. 

That would be the best!

I would use the money to go to the zoo and have tea at the Peabody hotel with my husband. If there is any money left over, put it in savings.

Take my husband to sit by the beach in Plymouth, Mass. as he has had 2 surgery this year and loves the beach. Would buy lunch, supper and walk around the beach and smile.

I’m very blessed with everything I need, so I would spend the day with my grandchildren, take them to lunch, and deposit the remaining funds in a college account for them.

I would get a much needed massage and have a facial which i have never had a facial in my life and only one massage years ago.  Take myself shopping for something nice to wear since i always do for my grandbabies and grown kids.

I have never won anything on AARP so I don't plan on winning anything now. I have played games and answered questions and do all the things to win but never have and don't expect to win anything now. Played guises and watch short shows and done all this and has never won anything so it was just something to do doing the day to keep busy.

I would reserve a oceanfront balcony room and order room service. Then spend the day listening to the waves and seagulls, while sipping on a glass of wine.

I would make a special feast for my six siblings.  It has been such along time since we've been together as a family, and an intimate dinner would signal the renewal of a lifelong family tradition.  We've all received our second COVID vaccine, so I feel hopeful.  Ahhh...dinner with family around the table sounds heavenly.
