Someone gave me a giftcard for $55 for my birthday.
I dont want to spend it on something Id get anyway.

I had an expensive makeup product to buy, but its not on amazon.
Any other ideas??

books, cookbook, perfume, pocketbook, travel bags, organizing stuff for your home, scented candles. amazon is my favorite, easiest place to shop.

Thanks!!
Theyr all great ideas but not my idea of something Id treat myself for.
I get books from library or I buy cheap.
I dont like cookbooks.
Perfume is a good idea, didnt know you could buy on amazon, but I have no idea what to get . I use my same few.

Organising stuff is not a treat for me!
I also much prefer shopping in person.
I use amazon for the things I need like electricals, and little bits and bobs..

Definitely don't buy perfume or makeup on Amazon. Too many fakes.

Do you have a hobby where you need to replenish or update your supplies?

You can always spend the voucher on essentials that you need to buy, and then 'give' yourself the $55 in cash to spend wherever you want.

Maybe first think of ideas you'd treat yourself with for $50. Then see if it's available on Amazon.

If you have an idea for something that you'd want to buy but it's not on Amazon, buy it and save the Amazon gift card for the necessities that you'll buy there anyway. (But this way, you won't have to pay for them and instead you'll pay for the present for yourself. Loan yourself money, so to speak.)
