I would head to a garden center and load up on plants and mulch.  Then I would spend the day working on my yard.

I would wake up knowing I could just lay in my bed 30 more minutes and meditate on my life. Then, I’ll get up and have a nice cup of coffee while watching a little tv and looking out my window. At lunch time, I’ll dress up and got out for a very nice lunch. I’ll sit and enjoy ppl watching. Later, I think I’d give God more thanks and take a short nap. For dinner, I’ll have a nice sales and bake chicken. Then I’ll watch a little tv, give thanks again and have a good nights rest. Thank you

I would have a spa day!! I would go to Starbuck's for my favorite coffee and take it with me when I get a massage, pedicure, manicure and shampoo, cut and style. Then if money left over go to Applebees for a refreshing Strawberry Marguerita & chips n salsa and my honey would have a tall glass of beer and we would share a meal together! Then a movie!!

I have not had a pedicure in a year or a manicure; I would definitely get one and then I would buy several candles and get a massage.

I was working at a local bread company as a Sales Representative when I injured my knee making a delivery. My job was fast paced and with long hours. It happened in Feb. of 2020 just before Covid became an issue. I am still on work comp.  I'm 62 soon to be 63. Due to my injury and Covid have been struggling with weight gain and health issues. Thankfully I signed on with Kaiser and they have a gym program that refunds your admissions fee after so many visits. The fee happens to be $200. The gym treadmill will allow me to slowly build up muscles around my knee and increase my cardio. This is what I would use with the $200 prize money your offering. After the gym rebate I would use it for food and medical expenses. Both of which have gone up quite a bit since Covid, especially healthy dietary food.

Thank you.

I would go on a day trip to Savannah, Ga. w/my daughter, my girlfriend and her son. So we could enjoy the beach and other fun activities.

Super great idea, I would spend time with my son and his wife at the beach and ride the boat and enjoy, fix food for the family and enjoy my family. I have always wanted to do that for them. Spend a week-inn with them would be great.

I would think about who I could share the wealth with someone less fortunate than myself enjoying an activity or nature just relaxing having fun

A day off and $200 would allow me to treat my daughter, granddaughter and myself to mani-pedis. We haven't done that since the summer of 2019. I miss our girl's day. This would be very timely as my daughter has just been diagnosed with Lupus. We need the together time!

I would purchase items to make my vegetable garden. It would be such a wonderful day.
