While we regret not being able to offer more prizes for the winners, we'd like to give out honorary mentions to the ones who made us chuckle with their entries.
"A Playstation 5 because GOD OF WAR RAGNAROK is coming out and we gamers have waited way too long for it. It is a game of epic proportions and brilliant story telling with the best character development. And I would gladly shave all my hair for a chance to play it on the Playstation 5."
"The best cockroach killer available on Amazon to wipe out the nests of cockroaches residing somewhere in my house."
"500 dollars? Thats very nice.
Thinking of shoes, shirts and maybe some ties.
For a new job, what else should I own?
Ah, how about my first Iphone!
Iphone 13, wah shiok man!

I would buy groceries for people having a hard time these days. Amazon has been a great help this season. I can safely shop for things I need and get them delivered safely to my doorstep. I want others to experience this by sending something they can use without the hassle of going physically to the store and delivering it myself. Through Amazon, extending help is as easy as one click away.

I will use the gift card to buy a gaming chair for my wife. She has been using the dining table chair to work from home since Covid started 2 years ago. And she uses it approximate 8 hours a day, sitting there for work. She refuses to let me buy her a more comfortable chair. So if I win this gift card, the chair will be paid for and no reason for her to refuse the offer.
