[BlueEyedKite]

hopefully this thread is allowed

please only reply answering my question so this doesn't get marked as spam!

IndentionSo, my work gave me a $50 giftcard to a popular grocery store. Kind of bummed since they gave a visa giftcard last year... anyway!! I decided I don't want to spend it on regular groceries I get every week.

Can you tell me some fun ideas to spend the giftcard on?

Maybe Helpful Facts

- I can cook!

- I have a sweet tooth!

- I love chocolate

- I am of age but don't want adult beverages thanks lol

- I don't mind spending $$ ontop the giftcard

Anyone got ideas??

You like cooking, so why not get some extra fun ingredients you can experiment with? Try making a savoury dish with some dark chocolate or try something you don’t normally try? There may be some holiday goodies too that you can only get this time of year that you could spoil yourself with!

^^ this is a good answer! i was j gonna say just a ton of sweets or stuffed animals if it's like one of those stores that sells em LOLLL. but yea, fun/high quality ingredients for baking and cooking would prob be the most fun, update us on what you decide either way cuz im now strangely invested :D

make holiday cookies?
make a food item from one of your favorite video games/movies? i.e. mario cake, ratatouille?
maybe some new self care items?

Spice rack with TONS of spices and pink salt. Or maybe even black salt, if you can find it! Black salt would go great on a nice, tender steak I think

It isn't in your interests but I always love lego sets or 3D crystal puzzles when I get the money to do em!!

Oh! I really do have a sad spice collection! That's an idea!

I want to bake a Christmas cookie for Christmas Eve but can't decide on a recipe. Using the giftcard for a decadent recipe could be fun!

These are great so far! Ps I am using it Friday!

Any cookware/bakeware you don't have yet? Cake decorating supplies?

Does the store offer cooking classes? A grocery chain in my area offers hands-on classes/workshops! Since that's an interest of yours, perhaps you could put the gift card toward that. You could likely learn some new skills and recipes. (:

There are so delicious chocolate recipes for Christmas. I’ve seen a lot of people make a log cake with chocolate, maybe you can try that? I think they are meant to look like Yule Logs, but I am no expert on the subject.
