I feel like Oprah today!

Remember when Oprah gave a new car to everyone in her studio audience? Well, this is almost as fun.

I had a hard time picking a winner for the Jiffy Lube gift card contest. Although I picked Dolphin’s idea for turning the unexpected gift card into the perfect gift for an expectant mother, I really loved some of the other ideas as well.

Ideas that stood out include:

  • Annie’s idea to give a Jiffy Lube gift card to her friend who is getting married and planning a road trip honeymoon. Great gift for the bridal shower!
  • Heidi’s suggestion to give the gift card to her overworked husband so he can cross car maintenance off the weekend chore list as a thank you for all he’s been doing for the family.
  • All of you who just wanted to give a Jiffy Lube gift card to someone in need–a new mom overloaded with life, a returning soldier getting back on his feet, a boyfriend driving all over town in search of a new job, and a sister who just needs a break.

Nicely done people. These are all ways to turn a Jiffy Lube gift card into a thoughtful gift.

In fact, Jiffy Lube LOVED your ideas so much that they’re awarding a $50 gift card to  EVERY PERSON WHO ENTERED THE CONTEST! Yes, that’s right. DolphinV27 gets the big prize. Everybody else will be receiving a Jiffy Lube gift card as well! See, I feel like Oprah and you are all part of my studio audience!!!

So if you entered the contest (and I know who you are!), you’ll be getting an e-mail from shelley@giftcardgirlfriend.com, so be sure it clears your spam filter. You have until May 1st to respond to my e-mail so you can collect your prize. Thanks for entering. And thank you Jiffy Lube!
