Lowes ☺️
My H can get all his tools and toolboxes he's wanted. Then I can get all the home stuff I want and he can build me all the things with his new tools
I'd throw some appliances in too. I'd probably go over the limit lol

I’m going Target, especially a super target with groceries and stuff.
I’m buying all the clothes, books, house stuff, beauty products, office things, food, toys, storage, etc

Maybe a jewelry store. Buy the priciest thing I can, understanding I can pawn it, and take $150k or whatever I’d get on resale, and use that cash as I see fit.

Visa gift cards are too hard to turn into cash, friends! I don’t want cash. I just want to use them as cash I don’t have. |

Costco. I can make an amazing backyard area with hot tub, kids' jungle gym, overhead sails for shade, etc. while also getting new kitchen ware, a dining set, etc. If I still had a few minutes, I could order a new car that day and book a cruise too!

You guys are no fun, don’t buy cash with fake money!
However I’m a little bit stumped myself. There’s an amazing Japanese supermarket and home goods store here that I think I could make a healthy dent.
Maybe a sierra trading post or rei. Ooh or the Adidas flagship/employee store. I always wish I had endless cash at that place.

Another reason I should get a Costco membership: familiarize myself with their offerings so that I can pick them for my miracle 250k prize.

Lowes or Home Depot. I could renovate my whole house for that, I’d need to be organized and have people ready to help though to get through everything in 25 minutes

Agree with all of this. Especially this time of year with the yard supplies Will also make a big purchase in jewelry as well as electronics. |

You can even get diamonds at Costco!
That’s be an easy place to spend $250k in a wild flurry.

My first thought was Costco but I could also go for Room & Board, Pottery Barn, or Restoration Hardware. My house would appreciate the update.
ETA I’m looking down at my platinum and diamond anniversary band from Costco and it’s still my frontrunner.

Lowe’s because my house still needs so much renovating. I could probably easily spend that much in 25 minutes lol

I asked my H and he said “The Lego store”
Apparently they go up in value but really?!

I would Definitely supermarket sweep Costco - whatever I couldn’t spend would go on Costco GC’s for future shopping trips.

Definitely Lowe’s! I’d walk up to an associate and tell them I need a full gut kitchen and 3 bathroom reno and I want to pay now 😂
If not that, then Room & Board. I’d replace every stick of furniture I own, including rugs, lighting, and linens. I could easily do this in 25 minutes, I practically have their entire product line memorized.

Costco for sure. Travel, jewelry, furniture, backyard playground for the kids, etc, I could go through that $250k in a snap. Ha.
