I'd probably take half and use the other 100 for my own contest heh.

I'd use it to further my online ventures with some linkbuilding campaigns. That way it's more of an investment than a expense... Gotta use your money smart!

The $200 will go into my "PS3 fund", that is the target I've set for my blog for this year - use the blog earnings to buy that sleek PS3.

buy me a nice domain and web hosting, run contests on my blog, spend it on ebay and the balance ( if any ) I'll keep it in my paypal account. :-)

So, whomever gets the 100th comment on this post? If that's what we're going for, it'll be a while. This should make 13. lucky 13.

I'd use that money to go on my trip to Georgia at the end of the month....gas prices are high!!

whew.. where's everyone? let's make this fast. Anyone wanna join a pact? lol!
With $200, I would have more money to spend during my Vegas vacation later this summer!

Don't enter me in the contest, because I'd just blow it on dinner entertaining a client. But I had to say, I'm linking to this just for the graphic. That's funny/cool as hell.
Zac Johnson

I would take the $200 and continue to run a blog contest with it. On another note, I love running contests and rewarding my visitors. Not only do I get to see blog activity, but it's also fun to see the increase in comments and what is said.
Joyce K Babu

I would get myself a new domain for my blog.

I am so sorry for that duplicate comment. I saw an error and I thought it was due to the dollar signs. Hence I reposted it.

Very interesting. I'd like to use the money to put toward our adoption fund for the daughter we want to bring home from China. Thanks for the contest!
Linda

If I had $200 I would be able to buy some real groceries for a change rather than just Peanut Butter and Ramen Noodles! Did someone say "steak"???
bluepaintred
· 2 years ago
I think this is a pretty cool contest, but could I not just sit and enter comments until i was the 100th? it seems weird, becuase i can look and see, OK, I'm 38, no where near 100, so why comment?
regardless, If I had two hundred dollars inmy pay pall account, I would buy (finally) the PENTAX Optio W20 digital camera. It is waterproof and dust proof, perfect for a mom on the go!
even though i know I am no where near being the 100th comment, I thought I would leave this in support of what seems to be a really cool plan!
jacob martin
· 2 years ago
IF I win this contest, then I will....hmmm....put it in my purse and use it when my first need for money comes.
I would add some more money to it and buy an iPhone. Apple rocks.
Wolf Stone
· 2 years ago
When i win the $200 i'll probably use to pay off a professional web designer to completely overhaul and update my blog.
minstrel

I will buy a site with $100 and promote it with the rest.

Hi, I see you are running a contest. You might want to visit the blog on my link. You can submit this contest, in your own words, at the Blog-Contests.net. I am actually advertising with Adwords so you should get decent traffic from this initiative, plus a link to your blog! thanks, C Fernandes
OMG, this is almost crawling. I can't wait to win the 200 ;)
Web Presence

Interesting! I would either take 200 and dump it back to all my sites, or if Im feeling adventurous finally by myself a nice proper snooker cue with a sturdy case :)
macewan

On second thought the money would go towards a macbook for my wife.
Matt Keegan

Vijay
· 2 years ago
Vlad, I am not sure if this would really reach a 100 anytime soon. Its been on 52 for 10 days now. If I may offer a suggestion, you could split the 200 into 4 and give 50 for each milestone comment, like 75, 100 and so on.
Vlad
· 2 years ago
Vijay,
Thanks. I do think this is going really slow. I will most certainly consider your suggestion. Now that I know that there is at least one person interested in this contest. ;)
I also was thinking to set and end date and then decide the winner(s) by drawing, this would give every one who participated so far an equal chance to win. Thanks for stopping by!
thatedeguy
· 2 years ago
I agree. I like the drawing idea. (mostly because my comments are nowhere near the 25,50,75, 0r 100 spots...)
Joyce Babu
· 2 years ago
I too support the drawing idea.
Vijay
· 2 years ago
Thanks for considering my suggestion. The drawing idea is good as well. It would be nice if the drawing was with multiple prizes instead of one big pot. This would ensure that more people may go home as winners. :)

I'm in and I'll announce it on my blog. The only problem is I'll have to lurk to try and be #100!
sirjorge
· 2 years ago
With 200 dollars I'd finally take my wife out to dinner somewhere that didn't require a combo meal and a number to order.
I would use $200 to take my family out for a treat - we don't get too many treats....
Jess

With $200 I would buy textbooks since school is almost starting for me!
Jess

I like the new rules, should be interesting to see how many links/comments you'll get.
With $200, I could buy some new clothes!
Joyce Babu

Its good that you have fixed an deadline for the competition. I am waiting eagerly for the drawing :)
valentin

Yo, Vlad.
Well, I`ll let to you the pleasure to find out where I`m from :-P
What i`ll do with 200 bucks ?
1- if those are exactly ones on picture, I`ll frame them and send to paypal`s big boss .. 2- if those are real USD, I`ll probably upgrade my IBM 400Mhz pc :-) (made in 1998, all original inside)
As I also run a (new) contest on my blog, I have in my plans to request you to be part of jury on one (or more) of next editions ..
Vlad
· 2 years ago
Hi Vlentin.
????? ?????????? - ok it is not working. but it was "dobro pozhalovat'" in russian. Did I guess it right? No, unfortunately you will not be able to frame. Should you win it will be deposited into your PayPal account, so unless you use your debit card most likely you will not see or touch them
valentin
· 2 years ago
Sorry, man, I don`t understand russian language. :-) As about paypal account, sorry .. My country is in "Send Money to Anyone in the Growing PayPal Network" list (yet, fortunately, not Russia) - link = https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_disp... -. This mean my paypal account can not receive money .. even if I use or not CC or DC .. So. all I can hope is I`ll not be the winner :-P
marie

I would use half of the money for savings and the other half for some tutoring from Kelly McCausey She is a super tutor in internet marketing and helping WAHM with their biz. Marie
Niouton
· 2 years ago
I think I would spare them...
...It would be to reimburse me for the $205 ticket I had last month while I was just passing through USA (from Canada to Canada around the Ontario lake) for the first time I entered USA (since I'm french that's really too bad because I'm not really used to cross oceans on week-ends to visit USA ^^)
You must be getting sick of people not commenting b/c they don't want to waste their 5 comment limit.
Karen
· 2 years ago

Vlad
· 2 years ago
Karen,
You comments were caught by Spam Karma plugin.
Yes all you have to do is to comment. I do however prefer that at least one comment would answer this question:
What would (or can) you do with $200?
That is part of the rules. I wanted to restrain from commenting about it, but know those who follow will have a chance to correct it. ;)
Joyce Babu
· 2 years ago
I am planning to buy a new laptop. I think I'll have some use of it ;)
Karen
· 2 years ago
Ah, thanks, Vlad. Don't want to upset the other bloggers. ;)
Hmmm.....what would I do with $200? I'd probably spend it on my dh. Sure, I could say I'd treat myself to some spa treatments, or some new clothes. But when push came to shove, I'd probably end up spending it on someone else.....most likely the hubby.
Although I might splurge and get one new comfy sweatshirt for myself for this fall! :)

Vijay
· 2 years ago
I am glad that the rules have changed Vlad, however as you see above, a few comments seem to have been made with the ultimate purpose of getting the numbers up. I still say that 5 entries be the maximum for consideration for every person.
There are quite a lot of people who have no life out there and they would comment here with and spam the blog..
If you would consider a max of 5 entries from everyone, then it would give everyone an equal footing in the drawing
CASH for COMMENTS
· 2 years ago
Hmmm to be a little original.. I would burn the $200 and but video tape it on youtube then.. hopefully itll be the most stupidest thing to do.. gain a lot of comments and lead traffic back to my blog. hahahahaha.. mueah haha i'm sneaky
CASH for COMMENTS
· 2 years ago
i like how it switches the numbers with 4 and 7. $200... ill a brand new ipod.. and SMASH it.
Josiah

I would use the money to learn and better myself. This would be in the form of education and starting a blog.
Josiah

Alternatively, I would use it to pay application fees for college admission.
Josiah

Or, for fun, I'd buy myself some nice stuff on eBay ;)
