I would get one thing special, maybe some nice tea, or a piece of cheesecake for myself, but the rest would go towards things we need.

Cheddar Cheese to make Welsh Rarebit, which is a sauce or spread made by melting cheese into beer. It's good topped onto toasted sourdough bread.

That and Mozarella cheese to top home baked pepperoni pizza.

I think I would get the makings for shrimp cocktail. Or since we are expecting I might get diapers and chocolate. Diapers for the baby chocolate for the mama.

I'd buy a good chocolate bar, cream cheese, and graham crackers to make our favorite marble cheesecake.

My luxury item would be a book or magazine. I'd also use it for sales like the one we have right now. With 4 kids a night at the movies is a biiiiig luxury. The digital choice rewards is going to allow me to take the younger two to How to Train a Dragon(and potentially Oceans) and allow the older two (teens)to go to invite a friend to the movies, view a movie and get some downloads for MP3, or go to two movies.
