Of course, there’s going to be a McDonald’s gift card. It wouldn’t be a TIB Season of Giving without one. Although I could say the same about Starbucks, Walmart, and Target. Oh, and Jack in the Box.

While I have your attention, this is my prediction for what we’ll see from McDonald’s in 2019: two new Signature Recipes, new coffee drinks, and Cheesy Bacon Fries for everyone. You get Cheesy Bacon Fries! You get Cheesy Bacon Fries! Everyone gets Cheesy Bacon Fries!

Hey look! I went to a Walgreens! Actually, there’s one within running distance from my home. I was so desperate to get more gift cards for this year’s Season of Giving that I went running. Why did I go running when I could’ve drove there? Well, it’s not only the Season of Giving, it’s also the Season of Gluttony — Thanksgiving, holiday parties, New Year’s Eve, Tuesdays. A lot of food is being consumed, especially on Tuesdays, so I could use the exercise.

We’re kicking off this year’s Season of Giving with Target because it’s the only gift card I’ve procured at the time of this writing. I have to buy a whole lot more or else this year’s Season of Giving is going to be a Day of Giving. I promise I’ll have more by the time I have to write the post for Day 2.

Welcome to The Impulsive Buy’s 2018 Season of Giving!

(I’ll pause here to let you all celebrate)

Starting next week, we will be giving away something (mostly gift cards) EVERY DAY until the end of the year. The gift cards are from a variety of stores and fast food chains we’ve covered throughout the year. You’ll have to visit us every day to find out what’s being given away.

The title of the posts will begin with “TIB’S SEASON OF GIVING 2018.” Because we’re having a new drawing every day, we’ll be accepting entries (via the comments) for each prize for only a 24-hour period.

The prize drawing posts will go up at 9:00 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time (11:00 p.m. Pacific, 2:00 a.m. Eastern) and once the 24 hours have passed, the comments for that post will close. The winners will be selected and announced soon after TIB’s Season of Giving is over.

For those of you who regularly enter our prize drawings, you might notice the time each 24-hour period starts is different from the usual 12:00 a.m. Hawaii Standard Time. I moved it up because I now want to go to sleep at a normal time.

As with all our prize drawings, it’s only open to those in the U.S. who are 18 years old or older (gift cards can be used only in the U.S.).

So, keep an eye out for the first post, which is going up on Sunday, December 16 at 9:00 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time.

Good luck!

Here are the winners of our latest prize drawing:

Congratulations to all the winners!

Thank you to everyone who participated! Also, a special thanks to Walmart for sending us extra samples to give away.
