This will likely be the last cash out from Gather that I will receive in time for our camping trip in 2 weeks. Every single cash out from January 1st till today has gone directly towards the camping trip. To date, I was able to get $100/month for January, February, and March. In April, I was able to cash in for $150. So far for May, I've cashed in for $75.
That means that with awesome friends like all of you, and a wonderful site like Gather, I was able to put $525 towards my camping trip without cutting into our budget at all!
I have some more than that from setting money aside when we got our taxes back, but the trip itself shouldn't cost much more than what I have from Gather.
That's with us splurging to do some fun things on the camping trip, too. If it were JUST camping, I could have done it 3 times over on what I earned here on Gather.
Gather rocks! And it does so because of the awesome people here!

Have fun on your camping trip, so glad that I was able to help, even just a little bit. Remember we want to see pictures, lots of pictures.
You guys will see so many pictures, you'll start to hate me! ;) Seriously, on my camping trip last year, I took over 400 images and that was with only 1 actual outing away from the campground. ;) This trip is slightly longer, and will have outings on 4 of the 6 days. ;)
Bring on the photos, I am a big girl I can handle it. Oh and I know all about taking goobs of photos, I have granddaugthers, I do it all the time.
Congrats and have fun
Thank you, Renee!
you are doing great!
IT SURE DO...:) HAVE A GREAT TRIP
Awesome! Have a great time camping.
That's great that you earned so much for your trip. Have a great time.
I am glad that you have enough to go camping. Now take lots of pictures for us to comment on.
I plan to- Oh, I plan to put my camera to the test ;)
GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are a shining example of how Gather can help people exceed their wildest dreams.
I've got another $50 coming (or I will have by the beginning of the night) but I think I'm going to let it sit, and maybe aim for $100. :)
Good for you, and have a great time on that camping trip. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Leah! Congrats! You do so great here, too :)
Wow that is great! Have a fun trip!!!!
Thanks :) I'm excited for that, but right now, I'm just looking forward to tomorrow. ;)
good for you!!! =) I am a Gather slacker now that the nice weather is here so I have not cashed out since before my Disney trip.
I've noticed I spend far less time here lately as well. I imagine once school is out, I'll be around a LOT less during the day, but still in the mornings, and at night.
That is so awesome! You have done incredibly well here on Gather.
I just cashed out for $25 myself, for the last month, and I am super happy about that because it took me twice as long for the last cashout.
I'm jealous!! Although, really have nothing to be jealous about because you did all the work to earn it and I can too! Congrats and have fun!
Good for you. I guess I should think about cashing in some of my pts soon.
I hope you have fun.
Most awesome! :)
Here's a 10 to help you get started on your new goal.Have fun on your trip!
that is SO COOL that you are paying for the entire trip with your gather earnings!! i hope the trip is fun and successful! make sure you write all about it when y'all get home! :)
I'm glad you were able to earn so much to go towards your upcoming camping trip. I know you all are going to have a blast.
Congrats! That's awesome that you set a goal like that! Happy Camping!!
Wow, girl, that's amazing. I haven't even gotten $100 total yet since I joined earlier this spring (Feb or Mar can't remember). Have fun.
wow! I have only made $50 all year!!!
