[quote][b]DEAL 1

I can either spend a $200 gift card I got for free at nflshop.com and get this:

Steelers Dart Board (or any other team)

Shoes[/b][/quote]

Or I can sell the gift card for an amazon.com gift card and get this:

and a couple of movies.[/b][/color][/quote]

I would probably use it for household items that we need, but that's me.

My impaired vision fails me. Is Deal 2 some sort of medieval torture device or a trampoline?...

If deal 2 is a trampoline, then I’d certainly go for that over a dart board or a pair of trainers which will be probably worn out in a few months.

When all else fails, recourse to "eenie, meenie, miny mo" is always there to save the day.

[homeschoolmom]

I think it's a hammock.

[Brother Adam]

Deal 2 is a portable hammock. I just found out there is a 25% off sale at the nfl place - which makes the $200 gift card worth $250 after shipping.

My birthday is next week and I really want that hammock too. But to sacrifice $275 worth of gift card for $60.00 amazon.com gift card...hmm


I mean...imagine the possibilities....setting up the hammock under the tree outside Fathers office, laying on it and sipping a lemonade as he comes in for work. Just priceless.

Can you trade it for a card you can use to pay off student loans?

[Brother Adam]

The best cash offer I've gotten is $20

Pffft. You could buy something with the card and resell it and make more than that.

Have you tried a place like this? [url="http://www.cardavenue.com/"]http://www.cardavenue.com/[/url]

BTW, why is this in Debate?

I was wondering that, too.

[ariaane]

I see- it’s a hammock. I’d still go for the hammock, in particular as it comes with movies.

[Brother Adam]

Because I'm debating with myself.

Actually I don't know why it is here. I guess someone moved as I went to open mic to post it.

[KnightofChrist]

Option two while it claims to be a Hammock... I'm afraid the neighbors will ask themselves what the heck is that? What is that guy into? LOL

Go for option one save yourself the embarrassment and explaining it.

You can make your own dang hammock, just don't hang yourself.

I found out that there is a 25% off coupon code, making the gift card worth 275. I think I'll get shoes, a spring jacket, and a the dart board - perfect for posting pictures of your favorite heretic.

[Slappo]

Errh.. yeah go for the more expensive stuff, just cause you could sell it for more then the $60 amazon card lol...

[Nihil Obstat]

I don't play darts or like football.

[Brother Vinny]

Er, do they have the NFL items in Chicago Bears colors? That'd swing my vote. Otherwise, go for the hammock.

[LivingStone]

Da Bears. Yeah,, I'd have to second that. Any nfl item in bears colors, then your golden (or atleast orange and blue).

[mcts]

i would suggest changing it from the steelers to the colts. they're cooler.

[thessalonian]

NO DEAL!
