Easy, right? RIGHT! So get to commenting today!
Good luck, and, well, yea, I’d like to win…
I’ll be taking my husband snowboarding if I do. :)
Well of course I’d like to win some money – I have books in my Amazon shopping cart just waiting to be ordered!
Good luck!
I wanna win! I wanna win! The money would go towards a new puppy for our family. We’re looking at either a Siberian Husky or a German Shepherd (contacting breeders and talking about which would be the best fit for our family) – so that’s what the $40, if I won, would go towards!
Thanks!!
Winning the money means I could get some of the things on my Amazon list. And I would love the red View mug. I have enjoyed the contest because it has introduced me to new bloggers…I read Winnie everyday but now I have added some bookmarks to my list.
I want to win! Cause … I mean, crap, how do you make it to the final three without ever winning??
haha. I can’t play faves yet, though. So I wait to see who sneezes better.
Candy is dandy
liquor is quicker
But money always flows like honey.
Flash some cash and your life becomes a big smash

Winning the $40 would get me halfway to my crack and hookers weekend plans! Wait, hookers take Amazon gift certificates, right?
I really enjoyed your blog Winnie. I wish you the best of luck!
What a fabulous ride Project Blog has been! (and yes, I wouldn’t mind $40)
I hope Winnie wins and not just because she is my sister. Her blogs are always entertaining and informative.
I can always use some extra cash. First time visiting this blog , but will return.
I wish Winnie the best of luck! I love her blog.
Umm…I would probably keep it for myself because if my girlfriend ever found out I won 40 bucks…she’d take it from me and go shopping……I spoil her….so why can’t I spoil myself sometimes?!
I’d like to win now that I am a little less employed than I used to be, but I could use Mark’s book and Winnie’s mug just as much as money.
Winnie is a great writer & I always read her blog. The $40 would go towards buying my two boys English books from Amazon-we live abroad & English kids books are difficult to find.
I need the money to quench my thirst for new books – so love to read!
Winnie is the best!
cool.. winning a $40 amazon gift certificate mean i can get like two more seasons of Alias on DVD… and you know how much i love alias Allison! lol
It’ll be my b’day soon, and it’d make for a nice present… :)
My name is Dee and I am a Amazon.com junkie.
To combat my addiction to Amazon I visit other sites that don’t require purchasing books and/or gifts, such as Winnie’s “Watching The View” blog. Bet you didn’t know that you were part of my therapy Winnie!
I would love to win the Amazon gift certificates because, well…the chemo room is lonely and books help me to escape into a better place, a place where dreams come true and remission is more than a whish on a growing list.
I want to win!!! and I’m cheering for Winnie!! Thanks!
I would love to win some cash. Any little bit helps when you have a child going to college in the fall.
I am going to cheer for Winnie. I love her blog, and have enjoyed every one of her blog entries.
Why do I need the $? Well, because I did not budget well during January and December, so I am a little short now. With that 40 bucks, I could eat for a week! This could mean the difference between starvation and survival. I would rather not starve, it seems very painful, and I have a low tolerence to pain. Soooo, I would like to win if you please! And, I am rooting for Mark.
I want the money because i want to buy a iphone touch for someone i love.
Woo!
I’d love to win. The money will go straight to a mental health day for me filled with good food, time out of the house, stickers, other scrapbooking goodies, and a piece of lemon meringue pie for my hubby. :)
Wow, 40 bucks… Haha, i could use that money to save up for my future use either in buying university textbooks or as a gift for my loved one =)
Who couldn’t use $40 these days. It’ll all be goin in the gas tank! Thanks
If I win the money will be going to a charity… if you want I will provide receipt to the webmaster to post as well…
What a great competiton – I cannot imagine anyone not wanting to take part! With the money I woudl love to say I will do something reallye xciting but it will probably just end up being spent on nappies for my children!!
Yes, $40 would be a great gift for me to spend on the three women in my house!..and nice to see in my hands for a few nanoseconds…
thanks…
Well i have kinda been saving up for my first car and $40 would get me a step closer to buying the car i want (2000 jeep wrangler) and also good luck Winnie and Mark im not gonna pick favorites but i just hope you both end up happy:) ……
later guys
Hi, I would use the money for our local library. I have been donating movies for a while now and their faces light up every time we walk in with more movies to give. My kids love to give movies and see their donated movies on the shelf when we visit the library each time. Best wishes to everyone!
Money? Did you say money? Do I need it? Always. Do I want it? You bet.
Great blog post Alisson.

I’m a 37 year old mother of 3 boys ages 6mos to 6 years old. I would love to win $40.00.
You see, I’m an addict and to feed my addiction, I need cold, hard, cash. Because what I need, no one will give it to me. I need cash to buy this stuff…webkinz….Webkinz….WEBKINZ…..aaahhhhh I’m stuck in Webkinz World…Ms. Birdie…help… Oh, Winnie and Mark-you can help too.
Oooh, I want money. Because I’m a rockstar and rockstars need money. And what would I do with it? Well, I’d throw mad, crazy parties of course! (and pay my hosting bill)
I would love to win… what can I say; I’m a broke teenage girl with a formal dance coming up- I need a dress!
Winnie’s entry this week is exceptionally interesting & worthwhile. It’s a history of what’s gone on at The View this past year, as well as all the current events they have discussed & our own reactions & commentary.
If I win the contest, I’ll donate the $40 to one of Rosie O’Donnell’s charities. After all, Rosie IS the mother of “Watching the View.” And her courage, and generosity continue to motivate so many of us to speak up as she did while she was on the show.
this could be it! i havent won anthing in my life yet… well except for a freezer that i didn’t even know i entered the raffle for.
Yeah- I want to win that 40$ too:)
Wanna buy some books:)
I would use my $40 dollars to buy a dozen roses and a box of chocolates which Ii haven’t done for a long time. Yes, for my wife!
