Recently, I was approached by the people at Tango, who invited me to offer a giveaway here for a $50 Tango Card.
The Tango Card is a flexible gift card that can be redeemed for name brand gift cards like Amazon or SpaFinder, donated to charity, or even redeemed for cash. So for example, imagine you have a $50 Tango Card – you can spend $25 at Amazon, donate $10 to the USO, and still finish up with $15 on a Starbucks card. They also have free mobile apps that let people organize gift cards in one place, use gift cards in-store from a mobile device, and receive email alerts and reminders to use gift cards.
You can find out more about your options using a Tango Card here and if you’re a visual learner, there’s even a Tango Card YouTube video. The free mobile app for managing your gift card is here.
And so, just in time for Valentine’s Day, if you are still looking for something for your sweetie–or for you!–enter for a chance to win a $50 Tango Card by leaving a comment on this post.
TO ENTER: Leave a comment sharing what you would do with your $50 Tango Card! For an extra chance to win, you can also follow @TangoCard on Twitter and leave a comment (here) letting me know you’ve done so. Eligible entry ends at noon EST on Friday, February 10. One winner will be randomly selected using Random.org and the winner will be posted here by 3 p.m. (Friday, February 10).
P.S. The winner can choose either a physical or digital Tango Card.
Disclosure: This post was sponsored by Tango Card and they gave me a $50 gift card. How am I going to use my card? I will probably use it to order something for the kitchen in the studio through Amazon!
UPDATE: The winner is #171, willsahna. See here for a second chance.

I learned so much from the series that I want to buy that book which I found on Amazon. It is expensive because it is out of print. That is what I would use that Tango card for!

At the moment I would have to say cat supplies for my inside cats and the ferals and strays that I care for. I just recently adopted two cats – one 6 and one 2 to add to my 3. As everything else, the prices have gone up. Thanks for a chance :help:

How awesome! I would love to win! I sponsor a 7 year old child in Ethiopia through World Vison. My donations have helped not just Birhane, but her family and village, towards education classroom construction and her family, for fruit and coffee seedlings, blankets, etc. This was my first thought as I read through this wonderful chance to win offer. I have many wants and needs, but this comes first and foremost for me at this time. .. thank you for a chance to win.. I would add the Tango $50 value to my donation!

I’d probably use it to buy new plants for the back porch and yard.. Or maybe to buy clothes for my new soon to be daughter that we are in the process of adopting from Russia. I also have a friend out of work that could really use it too.. I’d have to give most of it to her ii think.

Suzanne, how lovely you’ve been chosen by Tango to receive a gift card, and also to gift a card to a reader of your blog. Of COURSE you’ll use it for kitchen needs. (smile) And so will I. I’ve been saving for an All American canner from Amazon for some time now. All the fresh garden goodies are just around the corner and I can’t wait to replenish the larder.

My son and I are tackling a scout project…we are gathering toys, books, maps, school supplies…for a new Amish school in Hillsboro. OH. The school opened this fall. I got a chance to visit one Saturday. Read about it here https://cedarmorefarmcsa.blogspot.com
They are an Amish organic farm community supported agriculture farming unit…made of Amish farmers in the Hillsboro area. Because of their time and dedication we are eating healthier so we wanted to pay it forward and do something nice for the school. My 10 year old son is going to take some of his paper passing route money to buy scissors, markers…we could really used the Tango card.
Good luck to all!
