How Would You Spend The QVC 30K Grand Prize?

Hello all.  With so much awful news surrounding us, I thought we might lighten things up a bit here and engage in some fantasy spending!  Specifically, what would you do if you won the QVC Sweepstakes $30,000 grand prize?

 

First, I'd hope I was sitting or laying down when I found out because I would probably faint!

 

QVC would be happy to hear that I'd be paying off all of my Easy Pays; yep, I'm one of those people.  Of course a whole lot some of the money would be spent here on items on my QVC wish list.  However, as far as a major purchase, I would be in the market for a "gently" used car since I'm currently carless.

 

So, let's dish . . . . . How would you spend it?

 

Of course, this is really just a fantasy for all of you since I plan on being the grand prize winner!Smiley Very Happy

First I would pay the taxes on the money, Second put it in savings.

I would use it to help me buy a new car.  My car is very old and died yesterday.  I don't know how much the repairs will cost yet, but last year had big repairs done.  I'd rather have a new car but can't really afford it.

No, no, no @esmeraldagooch this is a fantasy so there's no such things as taxes!  Lol, just kidding; yeah, we all have to pay the man.

Pay our car off, make a few donations, put the rest in the bank.
