I just ordered my first gift card from gather.com!!!  A $50 gift card to Home Depot.  I have been on here for HOURS every day for the past several weeks, but I finally did it (and saw lots of cool pictures/interesting articles and made lots of friends in the process!)

 

I can't wait for it to come.  I am going to finish my son's bed room with it, just need some paint and a few other things!

 

I'll post pictures when it is done!

 

Thank you all for your comments, and great things to comment on.  YOU make gather GREAT!!!

I appreciate that you gave the readers credit for the points and how you appreciate the reading and doing the comments. I am in Gather for more than the points. The points are a bonus.

Congratualtions! I will be looking for the pictures!

I'm glad you got your gift card. I hope you will enjoy what you buy with it. My husband and I used our first 2 cards for plants for the garden and flowers for the yard in the spring. Then we combined our next few cards to buy a $200 carpet steam cleaner. I used my next card on cleaning supplies and furnace filters. Now I am working towards the next card.
Jesse B. Nov 5, 2007, 10:32pm EST
Congrats. I think I will also shoot for The Home Depot card
Mary K. Nov 18, 2007, 2:41pm EST
