EXAMPLE POST

Hey there! Here is my quick little shopping list, if I were to win the $100 Amazon Gift Card!

I stream and record podcasts in my free time! I would purchase a new mic stand with a double pop filter to help mellow out my booming voice!
Microphone Stand, Magicfun Mic Boom Arm Desk Adjustable Suspension Boom Scissor Arm
https://www.amazon.com/Microphone-M...ywords=microphone+stand&qid=1627570378&sr=8-8

My Stream setup needs a little more set dressing! I'm a huge Supernatural fan! So who better to watch over my stream than the Winchester's 1967 Chevy Impala?
SUPERNATURAL - BLACK 1967 CHEVROLET IMPALA SPORT SEDAN Diecast Model Car
Amazon.com: NEW 1:24 GREENLIGHT COLLECTIBLES - SUPERNATURAL - BLACK 1967 CHEVROLET IMPALA SPORT SEDAN Diecast Model Car By Greenlight: Musical Instruments

While not streaming, I like vegging out and watching some of my favourite movies! I need to add Porco Rosso to my collection!
Porco Rosso- Limited Edition Steelbook [Blu-ray + DVD]
Amazon.com: Porco Rosso- Limited Edition Steelbook [Blu-ray + DVD]: Michael Keaton, Cary Elwes, Susan Egan, David Ogden Stiers, Brad Garrett, Shuichiro Moriyama, Akio Otsuka, Tokiko Kato, Tsunehiko Kamijo, Sanshi Katsura, Hayao Miyazaki, Toshio Suzuki, Rick Dempsey, Hayao Miyazaki: Movies & TV

You will need to provide links to the products on your list in order for your post to be considered!

Thank you for giving our little contest a shot! And good luck!

~Richard.

I need a shorter power cable for my Apple Airport Express so I’d probably get this: AudioQuest NRG-Y2 US Power Cord 1.0 Meter Amazon.com: AudioQuest NRG-Y2 US Power Cord 1.0 Meter: Home Audio & Theater

I want something nicer looking than just a black plastic cord.
You'd better hurry - they only have 4 left.
🤣

I would buy some ambient lights for my tv. I always loved the concept and the added immersion.

Also a HDMI 2.1 certified cable for future proofing my setup and avoiding any issues when it comes to cables.
$100 towards a LG 27GL83A-B 27 Inch Ultragear QHD IPS 1ms NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible Gaming Monitor, Black

It would go a long way towards a minidsp for me.

I would donate 100% of the gift card to the local children's hospital or women's shelter. I am not joking, i wouldn't keep a penny of it.

But since there's no link to charitable giving on Amazon, I'm not winning this so I've set expectation to low.

I would get this Revell Millennium Falcon combo for one of my siblings kiddos.


And maybe these Brio tracks to augment their current set.

This Princess Mononoke Art book for myself.


Alternatively to the Brio set and more self indulgent the Mission Impossible 4k collection.

Continuing with tradition I need to buy the Lord of the Rings Trilogy on the latest format.

The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy (Extended & Theatrical)(4K Ultra HD + Digital) Amazon.com: The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy (Extended & Theatrical)(4K Ultra HD + Digital): Mark Ordesky, Barrie M. Osborne, Peter Jackson, Bob Weinstein, Fran Walsh, Harvey Weinstein, Tim Sanders, Robert Shaye, Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Liv Tyler, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin, Michael Lynne, Cate Blanchett, John Rhys-Davies, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, Orlando Bloom, Christopher Lee, Hugo Weaving, Sean Bean, Ian Holm, Andy Serkis, Bernard Hill, Miranda Otto, David Wenham, Brad Dourif, Karl Urban, Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens, Peter Jackson, Stephen Sinclair: Movies & TV

I also tried playing Starship Troopers recently and looks like a bd-live issue prevents it from loading so rebuying that in 4k as well

Starship Troopers [Blu-ray] Amazon.com: Starship Troopers [Blu-ray]: Casper Van Dien, Dina Meyer, Denise Richards, Jake Busey, Neil Patrick Harris, Clancy Brown, Michael Ironside, Paul Verhoeven, Jon Davison, Alan Marshall, TriStar Pictures; Walt Disney Pictures: Movies & TV

To round it out, I've been looking into an IR repeater for some of my non smart devices and this looks like it would fit the build

Broadlink WiFi Smart Home Hub RM Mini 3 IR Automation Learning Universal Remote Control Compatible with Alexa Broadlink WiFi Smart Home Hub RM Mini 3 IR Automation Learning Universal Remote Control Compatible with Alexa - - Amazon.com

If I'm lucky enough to win, I would use my $100 Amazon gift card as a partial down payment toward a Blue Origin seat launch into space. I couldn't find a link at Amazon yet but I'm sure it's just a matter of time.

I'd also be interested in another hard drive so I could watch some 4k up there - probably this one Amazon.com: Seagate Exos X18 18TB Enterprise HDD - CMR 3.5 Inch Hyperscale SATA 6Gb/s, 7200 RPM, 512e and 4Kn FastFormat, Low Latency with Enhanced Caching (ST18000NM000J): Computers & Accessories

Or I could get a bunch of these to share...😈

Fingers crossed on winning the contest

I would buy Indiana Jones 4k Collection and The Mummy 4k Collection



:D
Good enough to reserve, way ahead of release time: volumes 7-9 of the manga Blood on the Tracks. I really need to know what's going on in this twisted tale!




P.S. If you're not using AmazonSmiles as your shopping site, please do so - Amazon will make a donation to the charity of your choice with every purchase!
