January 15th, 2011 at 11:49 pm
My significant other moved from England to Canada when he was 12 (he is now 45) and has not been back since. My background is British as well, so it would be great to use the $5,000 and take him and his kids back to England and find out where I came from.

I would use the money to change my clunker car for something better. Currently, 53% of my income goes towards mortgage.No money left for upgrading a vehicle to something safe. I live on a farm in rural area. To get to work, I need a car. My 1996 Hyuindai has unknown problem: it is struggling uphills and on turn. It scares me to death to make a turn after a stop sign and not being able to speed up. I was almost hit on a side a few times, because the car would not kick in a gear. I have 3 kids and do not want to die in a car, or God forbid, with them in a vehicle. Thanks for the opportunity!
January 16th, 2011 at 4:39 pm

Then buy my husband a nice wedding band, since we couldn’t afford one at the time when we got hitched!! He has given me everything i would love to give him something nice for a change.
The rest….. I would put it away for my kids education.
thank you
January 16th, 2011 at 7:08 pm
I would take that money and have a wedding with my fiance… she is basically my wife, the love of my life, and we have a beautiful son together and she deserves the best.

January 16th, 2011 at 7:20 pm

January 16th, 2011 at 7:23 pm

January 16th, 2011 at 7:23 pm
I would use half the money to put towards going to my sisters destination wedding later this year(that I cannot currently afford). The other half would go into my daughters RESP. 🙂
January 16th, 2011 at 8:00 pm

January 16th, 2011 at 11:52 pm

I would pay off some debt with $5000, before I start a family I would like to be closer to being debt free!
January 17th, 2011 at 6:09 pm
I would give it to my mom. She does so much for me, for the entire family, she’s disabled and lives with chronic pain. Since my dad passed away it’s difficult for her to keep up the house expenses, yet I can’t bear the thought of her selling her home of 50 years, filled with memories of my dad and the family and good times past. She’s the best and deserves the best. This money would pay two months of the house expenses and take a lot of worry away from her for a while.
January 17th, 2011 at 7:24 pm
I know If I won I would have to help some one thats having a hard time i think i would write a check to this family iv seen thats has nothing much and is having a hard time to make end meet a cloth thier children, or to people in need I can think of a few already it would feel amazing to know that these people are or have been helped & once thats complete i would use the rest to get ahead in my life also..:)
January 17th, 2011 at 11:27 pm
I would use the $5000 to pay for some of my daughters medical bills. My daughter was born 2 years ago with a very rare genetic disorder Hemihyperplasia Multiple Lipomatosis. there is only about 14 know cases in the world. She suffered 2 strokes leaving her with cerebral palsy, Bilateral hip displasia, deformed feet and a neurogenic bladder. her medical care is extensive and $5000 would really help towards some of the bills.
January 17th, 2011 at 11:43 pm
I’m so very sorry about your daughter!
Good luck with the contest!
January 18th, 2011 at 1:21 am
I would use the money to repay my father for some bills. I would buy the medication that I would otherwise not be able to afford for my dog. I would help out my brother with some items for his new baby, and I would buy myself a gift.
January 18th, 2011 at 3:40 am
If I were to get $5000, no strings attached I’d donate $500 to parkinson’s research… I lost my grandfather to it and would love to help with critical research. I also would donate $500 to cancer research. The rest of it would go towards getting the hubby a new work vehicle. He does maintenance and the car he’s driving right now just doesn’t cut it for work and with a 9 month old son we just don’t have the budget for a newer vehicle.
January 18th, 2011 at 4:44 am
I’d pay some bills and then treat myself to something nice!
January 18th, 2011 at 9:12 am

January 20th, 2011 at 5:04 pm
I’m torn – I would put the money to one of two things. I would either use the money to put towards our down payment on our home, or take my husband on the honeymoon to Aruba that we never had 8 years ago when we got married 🙂
January 20th, 2011 at 6:19 pm
The things I could do with $5000 dollars. I could spend it all on myself… pay of some debt and whatnot, but with Valentines coming up….?
I will be working to of course and I have a fabulous wife who has the best job (and hardest) looking after our son. I would love to be able to buy her some lavish gifts maybe a spa getaway or a nice trip away. We have been married 3 yrs and have not yet had a honeymoon.
January 21st, 2011 at 3:13 am
I would put some of it on bills, take the hubby on a special date, and probably try to find some kind of beater vehicle that is in better shape than the jalopy I’m scared of driving now.
January 22nd, 2011 at 9:35 pm
My priorities right now is my school and my Mom. Would not have to worry about paying for my books and tuition for at least this 2011 year thus spend some time with my Mom.
