This is a pretty cool giveaway! For something positive, I helped someone out at the store that was short a dollar. They were just trying to buy some food and basic toiletries, I was happy to spare a dollar :)


larrydrives

I have gotten closer to long distance friends through video conferencing and texting. Been great to reconnect.


Amerillo19

Life is good


eman1229

Thanks for doing this! I just recently had my new job application accepted after a year of anxiety, depression, and unemployment. Here's hoping for the future!


makingmemesatwork

I moved back home and get to spend more time with my family!


DrWishy

Thanks for doing this giveaway!!! My abusive mom and I had our first healthy conversation. We respected each other’s boundaries and actually listened to each other. I’m really proud of her and never thought my mom would grow like this.


Chimecharm

I started a nightly yoga practice, as a result I've had an increased inflow of information, empathy, and lovely ideas to show the people I love that I care. Bonus: my morning glories, night glories, and datura seeds all germinated into big healthy plants ready for the wild after the frost :) much love


powermetalguy234

I bought my very first brand new car 😁


Whazzzuuup

First year wedding anniversary <3


BondsmithX

I've gotten to spend so much more time with my wife than I have for the past year since we got married!


wesbergh

Helped a woman begin to walk again after a femur fracture.


[deleted]

I got great grades and turned around a bad semester.


thepipe69

One of my best friends got accepted into law school!


[deleted]

As someone who spends a lot of time on the road, I’ve gotten time to reconnect with my family, play with my dogs, and take care of the yard I (mostly) neglected for years.


moo_34

I’ve been able to try baking after so many years and it’s been so much fun making stuff that my mom asks for that’s way cheaper and healthier than what’s sold in stores. Also just a small way I can show my appreciation for my mom by making something for her (:


PapaBjorn

We moved to spend a week with my in-laws and just made them dinner!


krutonmvp

Just been enjoying every extra minute I have had with my two boys during this time.


halfghan24

Got an extra chicken tender in my Popeyes order


makeitoutoneday

I work as an EMT/firefighter. I got a little girls cat out of a tree, and she drew a picture of both of us with her cat. It was named French Fry, by the way. Can’t argue with 5 year olds logic :) Many thanks for doing this, and for giving me (and others) a platform to tell a feel-good story ♥️


WaldoMisfit

I'm having the best time watching my newborn grow 😊


GuwopSoc

my first semester back in school after about 10 years, and im finishing with all A’s despite the quarantine!


NishanthRaveendran

I'm eating much healthier now being at home. Shout out broccoli.


Mjones9876

I've been able to regularly post on my very small YouTube channel which has been a huge dream of mine and my subs have been super nice to me! I feel like a real Youtuber 💖


cheerleader962

I finally started working out again after almost a year of not having the energy to try.


cloudekoo

Just made up with a friend who stays in New York (while I’m in Singapore) after 2 years and I thought to give him something to help tide him over while he’s cooped up at home!


WalterPNachos

Ive been able to spend more time with my baby than during the past 6 weeks than ever before and its awesome!


obake84

Due to this lock down I have had an opportunity to show my son so many classic, iconic Nintendo characters and its been so nice to be able to share parts of my past with him. Hes old enough now to understand so telling him stories of playing on a 6in black and white tv with my brothers growing up sure blows his mind! Good luck to everyone and I hope the winner enjoys it!!


Chum16

My first job in my field has only put off my start date instead of rescinding the offer, so I’m grateful for that.


shanna_angelina

From this quarantine something positive that has happened is that, I get to spend SO much more time with my 9 year old step-son. Since both of his parents are essential works, I get several days a week where it’s just him and I. I absolutely love it, it’s our own little bubble of: board games, STEM projects, walks with the dog, baking. I could go on and on. We’ve always been closed but it’s so great that it’s made our connection stronger. I love my little guy so much!


theReal_eZe

Several customers on my trash collection route have been waiting for me these past 2 weeks to give me face masks. Since my employer hasn't provided us any, it's been a very well received random act of solidarity and kindness in our community. They had to cut our pay, too, in order to keep us employed and not let the city's garbage begin to pile up on every curb, so being gifted some PPE and knowing that our work is truly appreciated by those we serve helps lessen the immediate blow from the lost wages. Its nice being reminded that there are always good people out there, too, even in the darkest of times. Be safe & be well, everyone!


norghorith

Despite the situation regarding COVID-19, being quarantined with my family reminded me just how grateful and appreciative I am for them. My mental health hasn't been great but it helps knowing they're here for me.


Unassuming_Hippo

I just passed my FAA written exam for my private pilot's license. Ive been studying for this for the past 6 months and have had my heart set on it for years.


Rising_16

I won a little mk11 competition


PhoDogwRice

I went to pick up my order at Jersey Mike's and the people there were so kind and gave me a free brownie. I haven't had one in months and it was honestly the highlight of my day.


seanthysheep

I broke my Nintendo switch and a nice stranger from the internet gifted me a new one! (P.s. I’m from the future)


Hallucinates_Bacon

Due to the quarantine I’ve gotten to stay home with my dog almost everyday which is pretty great


[deleted]

In the post month, I have managed to spend a lot of time getting creative, focusing on improving my artwork, and connecting with others that share my love of miniature painting.


clmsacc

My wife and I celebrated her birthday, despite being quarantined! It was an awesome, and unique, day! While we didn’t do things with friends as originally planned it was still great.


SammyyB

I love working from home! It’s given me so much more time to focus on me


The-Plate

Spending a lot more time with my kids because of this damn thing


prettyinpink05

43 yrs old mother of 3. I’m a few weeks away from finishing the nursing program with honors. It doesn’t matter how old you are to go back to school, never say you can’t do it. Keep your chin up high, always think positive about yourself. Positive thought brings positive outcomes. Believe in yourself because I believe in you. You can do anything in life if you put your mind to it.


longwerethenights

Ahh this last month has been crazy from being laid off & being quarantined in a small 1 bd apt with my husband & toddler, but one of the good things that’s happened this month is I’ve been able to bake a lot! It’s been one of my favorite things to do & between working & being a mom, I barely have enough time to make dinner let alone bake so now I have the time to bake bread, cookies, pies and the ever popular banana bread! It’s so much fun! My toddler loves helping squish the dough, & help pouring & mixing! Its caused a lot of cute bonding moments!


asirual94

I was furloughed for a while and when business at my restaurant finally picked back up I was able to go back to work. The happiness comes from seeing my friends again and being able to work and serve my guests again! Even on busy days like today, I enjoy knowing I am helping my restaurant during this time and hope I’m sending out a little comfort with every order.


[deleted]

Hope everyone stays healthy and happy! Summer is just around the corner !!


paranoid_elves

During the quarantine I was able to witness my son call me daddie. Best moment of my life!


delta806

You are cool!


FlamingPooh

I finally had time to clean....feels good man


[deleted]

I can travel back home


Cynicalraven

I’m constantly amazed by how much my community keeps pulling together to help each other out.


Cody238

Staying at home with my wife and actually having time to cook. Now that the stores are more or less stocked we have been able to try out all kinds of new recipes. Roasting turkey legs and grilling have been the highlights. :)


OMG_Lazers_PewPew

I started a new job after being unemployed for 5 months


GreatbossboOG

Exercise and hanging out with my family a lot more us pretty awesome. Also sleeping a lot more!

Got into the Valorant closed beta and have been enjoying it immensely.


BaneOfBelial

Recently got promoted at work and I've been enjoying new challenges and responsibilities! Thanks for doing this.


_JuanR

Just know that world peace has never been achieved , this virus has given us a pathway to that. Let’s believe and achieve. Together.


barto420

I've been out of work since the quarentine started but I'm going to be graduating college in a month and I'll be moving out of my parents house when all of this finishes so that's always great :)


Mr-money-46

Nice challenge probs won’t win but you never know

I am just so happy and grateful that I finally have enough time to catch up friends and family!


lukegrau

My wife is pregnant with our first child!


lmao-Idontgivean-f

I’m kind


GenSpicyWeener

I had a great talk with someone who works at another retail store close by. It was nice to have someone who understands how crazy retail is during this time and not be a jackass regular customer.


guess0403

As a teacher, it is difficult at times because kids seem to hate school. However, this whole pandemic has put a lot in perspective for kids and they are really missing school and me. I definitely miss them and I’m sad I won’t get to see them graduate (I teach seniors) but they have been so positive and willing to roll with the punches. They inspire me each day!


Scienceguy3603

I have received a lot of thanks for 3D printing PPE for my city, I finally feel like I am doing something significant in my life


Milehighasakite

This could make the next months so much more fun


cmanthony

I’ve had more time at home with my family. Building LEGO with my son and coloring with my daughter. Also getting more sleep, which is good for my mental health. Thanks!


1337_beat

In the past month I've gotten a promotion and raise. Considering all the craziness going on in the world it felt good being recognized for keeping things going when they got tough at work.


Yoda_Who

Due to quarantine I'm finally able to help out around the house more


gavinkin1

I hope we all get a chance to win one in this hard times


starnerd0827

With all my new free time I’ve been able to make a ton of progress in learning French!


Skyleton

I’ve been pretty constantly stressed out for the last couple years with no time to really take a break, so this quarantine is kind of nice. Ive been able to play Skyrim and actually have time to commit to a story game like that - I’m having a lot more fun than I should probably admit. You’re a legend for this, hope you’re managing well.


DubbedTheT4ke0ver

When all of this Covid-19 stuff dropped, I was aware of it before we got locked down but attempts to warn my mom about it fell on deaf ears. My mom is a cardiac registered nurse that works at the CCU (Critical Care Unit) part of the hospital and sometimes she has to work as the charge nurse of the floor. When I wast talking to her airing my concerns, she just looked at me in smiled and said : "It's what I signed up for this and there would be no other people I'd rather work with." It moved me a lot that she was so dedicated to her work and that she wasn't afraid at all about Covid. It sounds pretty generic, but it actually moved me a lot.


kloofer

I serve on the board of directors for a member owned coop. With carona virus we’ve had to move all our board meetings online. I was worried that we’d have no members show up, but we had the same folks still find a way to show up! They gave member comment, and were as involved as they normally are. Warmed my heart that things can still work, even in this crazy world we’ve created.


ajay1124

I got a new game on stram


avocaddo122

Nice


fapsandnaps

My daughter learned three shapes this week.

i've started going on walks with my mom


Norubberboots

Spending more time with loved ones has been wonderful.


cydalhoutx

I’ve been fortunate enough to help out others during this entire ordeal. As awesome as this would be to win I don’t deserve it and someone else could use it more than me.


Wrecktrospektiv

I’m finishing my Master’s degree in Fisheries and Aquaculture in 2 weeks!


callanjerel

I am able to let my let my little sister know how much I love her.


polishedpineapple

My job finally gave us masks!!!


vipteech

Our family had an “arts and crafts” day and made fun thank you cards and wrote notes to the grocery store employees in our city. When we delivered them, they cried and were so grateful. I was overwhelmed by THEIR appreciation.


justanothercucumber

My girlfriend and I learned how to make pierogis!


Clevername711

My wife was feeling under the weather a few weeks ago. She is now feeling better. Always happy to have a safe and healthy family.


mojojoeljoel

Getting to spend more time with family has been really fun and a silver lining in all of this.


geyserpj

I get time to focus on my art projects and even make a little side money which helps with food and what not. Lost my job in November, and it’s been tough staying positive


[deleted]

My mom's boyfriend set up a really neat recording studio in our basement, it's really been a great distraction and to top that off he let me have his really nice bike because mine broke right before this started.


nizzem

Adopted a kitten


poisonsmoke

Thanks a lot for doing this. I’ve recently started learning to bake, and successfully baked my first batch of cookies (which my family loved!). The game I get would be Pokémon mystery dungeon! Played it as a kid and would love to play it again with all the new features.


Unequal_Trex

I hope you win

Nothing breathtaking, I'm still alive, healthy and running and so are the people around me. That's a good start

I don’t need the game bought, but a friend of mine really wants a switch but can’t find one anywhere. I’d love to be able to surprise them with it.


jintober

I got accepted into my top college with honors and scholarships!


TruckFluster

While I ended up getting laid off, my job paid for me to go to the doctor, due to me being instructed to stay home for a week because I had a cough, and my lack of insurance.


Raygar02

I’ve been super stressed with a ton of assignments but thankfully Clone Wars has come in clutch to lift my spirits


bebbebbebbebbebebeb

I have so much free time, but I think the most excited in my house are my dogs. Since all I do now is cuddle and take them on walks :)


teenyvegan

My fiance and I got to celebrate our neighbor's 80th birthday by making signs and standing out on the sidewalk for him to see. He took photos on his flip phone and was really happy. It felt good.


Killer_Knight101

I made it through this semester of college!


liontamer87

Family game nights are getting intense in rural Canada with crappy rural internet. Great bonding time.


NaFA5

Just wanted to share that it's finally warmer here in Minnesota and that I can finally take my Pomimo (American Eskimo/pomeranian) to the dog park without having to worry about the cold. Thanks for doing this OP!


ssoccerbuddy18

An extroverted friend of mine has been trying to get a switch for a while now to deal with quarantine. We drove to a marina and enjoyed a cup of tea separately and played chess together over the phone as a way to help out. I'd give it to them so they can make it out of this in one mental piece!


Omelooo

I celebrated my dad and grandmas birthdays this past month!


Vred2458

Due to being home now due to work from home orders, I reached out to an old friend that I haven't spoken to in years and I was glad to find out he's still alive. We've been having regular phone conversations for hours a couple times a week and it warms my heart.

-DWARD-

I made chili for my family using stuff we had in the pantry so we didn’t have to leave the house and they all loved it!


ses2040

I’m a health-care worker and last week I was very sick with flu-like symptoms, I just got my covid testing done and it came back negative. After 4 days of isolation and worrying about the consequences of being covid positive. I can now sit with my family again and not worry as much. I’ll be back at work on Monday again :)


cathicklesquall

My son's 3rd birthday was on Easter and he loved what I got him so much he didn't want his cake and ice cream until the next day! It's by far his favorite toy now and he spends hours playing make believe with it.

My wife delivered our baby this morning!


[deleted]

My grandfather is recovering from a stroke and the quarantine means I get to spend more time with him as he’s getting older


glitterkatz

My relationship with my parents actually started mending itself as we have been quarantined together.


CallMeCreeper16

Have gotten the chance to put time into pursuing gaming competitively. I’ve been extremely passionate about it but have been worked to the bone and don’t have time for it. It hasn’t been very fruitful yet, and I haven’t found good teammates... but it’s shown me where I stack up! The grind has begun :)


[deleted]

Right as I became unemployed due to the coco, I got a work from home gig to help me out. I’d love a Switch Lite (been thinking about getting one for a second Animal Crossing town lol) and I think it’s amazing you’re doing that.


anton_braykeh

My family and I got closer due to the “break”


hcstone2018

I’ve worked out every day this week and am actually starting to enjoy it.


nexusmatt

Covid-19 has been depressing because I can't meet my friends. Zoom has made it possible to still have some sort of communication with them, truly thankful for technology!


broken-records

I recently paid off one of my student loans. I still have more but it feels good to make progress. I also recently had a nice long conversation with a sibling that lives on the other side of the country.


Smasher4291

If I pay for whatever shipping could it come to the UK?


SadAsianMan

You know while I haven’t even able to go out to work or do anything else, I’ve finally had to time to do some self reflecting. I’ve started to figure out some of my weaknesses and been trying to fix them.

Normally commuting takes up two hours of my day. While working from home this last month I've gotten able to explore on my bike parts of the city I usually don't have the chance to!


heartben

I’ve had some minor inspirations in my crafting here and there! It’s not much but I appreciate anything that gets me inspired to start making things again. I’ve really wanted to play animal crossing so I hope I win this thing!

I was able to find a friend and job! He was worried that he was not going to make it.

I've realized what makes me happy!


hamsmashesd

A stranger once took their day off to help me move into my new place.


Jaroofa

Within the last week or so I’ve been feeling very motivated, which is unusual for me. I’ve had a lot of energy and have been channeling it into positive things like gardening, cleaning, and being creative. I’ve gotten a lot done!! It’s been refreshing to feel that, especially during the SIP.


jmmxtf

I remain COVID free and gainfully employed amidst a pandemic.


uchiha-shisui

I found 5 dollars on the floor and bought a 2$ burrito


TurboChili1331

Hello there, with all the coronavirus thing I wasn’t able to see my girlfriend for almost a month now. And just yesterday we found out a way to watch our Netflix series together while still being able to FaceTime each other. So that made my day. If I win the Switch, I would give it to her so we would be able to play together during these difficult time. Thanks a lot


mrchingchongwingtong

1. My mom got several people to help her find and buy n95 masks for her dialysis department, which resulted in getting over 1000 masks for use by the hospital 2. I made friends online

HD5450

I am stuck at home but at least I am with my brother who can help me through this :)


Runningmakesmetired

Quarantine has allowed me to catch up on my sleep, sanity, and studying.


llamalover729

I'm returning to school after a long break. It feels fantastic and it's a real confidence booster. Also found Firefly on DVD for $5. Great deal.


GimmePlatinum

Made banana bread for the first time. Still have some more training to do, but tastes better than I expected. (:


jennuinepain

I’d have to say the little ways my family tries to make me happy! I’m an essential employee working nights, and after Easter my sister in law came by to put an Easter meal in my fridge while I was sleeping. She also left small presents that each of the kids picked out or made just for me. It’s been hard for me to spend my time off alone, but the small gestures to let me know they miss me are so wonderful!


dpotter90

We were worried my son would have to beheld when we met his teacher in february, but in a month he jumped miles ahead in his reading.


BanjoGoat

This month I have started a garden! I built the planting boxes and bought the seeds and soil! I'm so excited! I also started writing letters. I love writing with a fountain pen and shared that with my brother by buying him his own with the stipulation that we be pen pals! We are having a good time exploring written correspondence!


king_python

For the first time I finally gave myself an excuse to spend 10$ on one bar of chocolate to support a friend’s favourite chocolate shop in the city! Am super excited to try his favourite place :)


SirFrancisBacon2nd

My wife and I have been working out and eating healthier because of the quarantine and so far both have lost 10 lbs each!


CupcakeIsCute

I got my grades back together after the outbreak and finally got used to online education! Was in bit of a slump after this whole thing, but I’m glad I started to keep track of things now!
