I just left a comment in "$25 Gift Card Giveaway and $250,000 American Express “Season of Surprises” Sweepstakes" fyre.it/D6z

I am a grandmother of 4 grandsons an I would love to be able to have a little extra money to be able to help their mommys out for christmas they are young moms and could really use all the help thay can get.I am so proud of them.

My children have been very understanding and supportive through our economic downturn. I think this would be a great gift for them to spend some time together. They range in age from 2 - 18 years old. They are very good to each other and help me so much around the house and by taking care of each other. I'm so thankful to have such a great family :) @zak kalama covert @dylan hicks

My cousin deserves the Season of Surprises this holiday and a chance to win a $100,000 Gift Card prize because she works really hard and she's very giving; she always invites us over for dinner every week and serves home cooked meals. Thanks for the chance to win! :)

My family deserves this gift card because we have been through so much during the past year. Going through a divorce and whatnot has really put a strain on the adults but most importantly, our kids. We want them to have an amazing Christmas and with both parents going through transitions with losing and/or looking for employment, itll be hard. This would be the best thing for us. Thanks for reading!

I don't need the card, I have been very blessed the past few years and even though I live off a very small Social Security income since I am now retired and I am very far from rich I have sufficient for my needs. I live very frugally. But if I were to be picked for a card I would just love to go to the local grocery store or another large store like WalMart and just give someone the card, I would ask for inspiration to pick someone who really needs it, perhaps someone who looks harried, or old, or ill. It is the greatest feeling in the world to give to others!

My family and I are awesome because we are active in the community :)

Myself and friends deserve to shop and buy clothes as a surprise!

Love to have american express gift card! Please send card to P O Box 8691; Cincinnati, OH 45208.

My grandmother deserves to win because she is so unbelievably generous and kind. She does anything she can think of to help anybody who needs it. She is just an all-around wonderful person!

my sister desrves it cause hs has had to fly out to visit us 3 times this year due to family situations, which have cost her alot of money

I would give it to my husband..We just had MAJOR sewer problems before Thanksgiving and had to move out for a couple of weeks. The bill was hefty and was delivered the Sat. before Thanksgiving. This would be a positive surprise for all the hard work he does to keep the house running.

We could use this on so many things.. starting with a Christmas gift for our wonderful public school teachers!

my cousin deserves a good christmas because even though both of her parents got cancer within a year of each other, she is still the sweetest person ever!

Hi!

My friends sure deserve the Seasons of Surprises this holidays and let me tell you why. My friends are all hard working university students. You know the joke about eating Mac N Cheese with tuna from a can? We've done that more than once! My friends are all high achieving students who work hard to make the school a better place through their 24 hour/ 7 day a week position of being a Residence Assistant (Resident Hall Don). They work hard to ensure that first year students have the support they need, come up with great programming, deal with vomit on their shoes on an at least weekly basis and the real kicker this time of year? They're all stuck here until the very last day before Christmas and have to be back really early in the new year to ensure all the needs of our student population is met. . It would be a great surprise to win and be able to afford a little extra this holiday season!

My Mom deserves this gift card because she is always giving to everyone else.

My mom lost her husband this past May and has made many other huge changes in her life. She has moved in with myself, my husband and our two teenage boys. She is having a very hard time with the holidays and winning the "Season of Surprises".

My kids, husband and I deserve a Season of Surprises because we seriously need a little night out , it's turning out to be a long cold winter!

My family and friends are wonderful because they accept me for all of my craziness.

My partner deserves the Season of Surprises because she is going back to school starting in January.

My friend Kari deserves the Season of Surprises this holiday because she and her fiancee have graciously opened their doors to me to stay whenever I need to as I am going through tough times.

My mom deserves it after overcome a debilitating illness last year and now has to take care of my dad who just had his leg amputated

My mom deserves a Season of Surprises, because she is always giving of herself and never asking for anything in return. She works two jobs to make sure that I can take advantage of every opportunity that comes my way and to make sure that we never go without. She is unconditionally supportive and loving of her family and friends and is always there to help no matter what the problem or circumstance. She has made personal sacrifices so that she could give everything to me, and I want nothing more than to be able to give something, anything back to her.

My father deserves this gift card. He is patient and kind and always willing to help out watching the kids and taking them places even though he is busy. He is a great guy.

Right now we could really use this because my daughter is sick and the doctor bills are piling up. Every little bit of income helps for sure. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

My family is awesome because we are Canadian and we live in the cold cold north with really crappy store selections, so it would be really awesome to win anything that is not from our small town :-)
