What would you do with 100 smack-a-roos?

One hundred dollars that is.  What would you do with 100 fresh, crisp, green dollar bills, or one Benjamin?

There would be no restrictions, no requirements, nada.  Just “hey, here’s $100, do whatever you want.”
100 dollar bill question
What would I do with $100?

First, I’d have to tell you what I should do.  Since we are on the Dave Ramsey plan and any and all extra money should go to our car payment, I should put it towards that.

However, what would I really do?

I think I would spend every.single.penny.on.myself!  Seriously, I would.  And, I would probably buy clothes with it.  My favorite jeans have booty pockets with buttons on them.  Well, I should say had because, really, those buttons are long gone.  And, my other jeans have a spot that is this.close to becoming a hole.

So, yeah, I’d probably buy some jeans.  And, some chocolate…maybe some chocolate, too…or cheetos?  Better get back to my shred…

So, what would you do with $100? 

Kodak and JuiceBoxJungle sponsored me to write this fun post, about what I’d do with a surprise extra $100 if someone handed it to me next month.

    i'm sure i'd have good intentions of using it towards something i need to pay off… although i would probably put it towards a pair of cowboy boots i've been eyeing for a while ( :

    An afternoon to myself. I'd start off with a trashy magazine and a sauna….then I'd get a 30 minute massage….then I'd take a relaxing shower…Pick up a book at the local book store and take it to Starbucks for a big cookie and a mocha. $100 in one afternoon of AWESOME.

    I would put it in my IRA account, that is what I would do.

    Now if I could do what I wanted with it, definitely an hour long deep tissue massage at the day spa, which includes a complimentary foot soak and as much time as I wanted in the Quiet Room… and a sandwich at the bakery next door 🙂

    I'd put it in my let's get a house someday fund.

    But the whole way to the bank I would be reasoning with myself that I really should put the money towards the Jo-Ann Fabrics. They need me to give them $100 and I need them to give me LOTS of sewing stuffs.

    Am I allowed to enter a giveaway from another company?? =D I would totally use $100 at Target. Not sure what I'd buy, but I know it would entertain me for like an entire day.

    Summary Answer: Target Shopping Spree

    We are also doing the Dave Ramsey plan, so I know that I SHOULD put it towards paying off my stupid student loan….

    However, we ARE on the Dave Ramsey plan, so I haven't had extra money to do ANYTHING fun with lately…so I woudl probably use it to treat myself to a mini-shopping trip to get a few new things for the spring!

    Hmmm grown up Jen would put it toward the car payment or savings for a house… slightly less grown up Jen would put it towards the office chair I've been wanting. Childish Jen? Would buy books and maybe a new pair of jeans or shoes.

    This was a fun post for sure! We are on Dave Ramsey too and I know the extra $100 SHOULD go to debt reduction, but I wouldn't enjoy that nearly as much as a spa day!

    Ooooo! How fun! I think I would treat my hubby to a romantic dinner for Valentine's Day. I always feel silly getting him presents and stuff because he is the only one that earns money in this family. So when I buy him presents it is kind of like, "Hey, honey! Look what I bought you with your money!" I know it is "our" money and he always reminds me of that, but I still feel like it is his money sometimes. It would be nice to treat him with money he didn't have to work for. 😉

    I think I would take an overnight trip somewhere. A much needed vacation is in order over here and that just might hit the spot.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog awhile back. I like yours and am now following your feed.

    I'd probably use it to treat my parents to dinner out somewhere as a thank you to them for helping me so much this year, I'd use a little bit to purchase some workout pants, and if there was any leftover I'd help one of my friends who's also struggling financially right now. I really have so many ways I could use $100 and want to help so many others that I know I couldn't do it all but it would at least be a start.
