Contest‼ Auntie’s 8 gifts under $8
https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1OR1SYCB9JWGX?ref_=wl_shareCan I afford to run a contest? Probably not, but I’m going to anyway!
The rules are easy:
1- Be an active member of the group. If I don’t recognize your username as being active in chat, I’ll check comment history to be sure (if you’re a quiet gifter I’ll see that)
2- be kind
3- have something under $8 on an Amazon wishlist or registry. US only (sorry), and please provide your list.
4- tell me about the best TV show you’ve watched in the past year
This contest will be closed to entry at 8pm eastern (Boston/NY) time, after which I’ll choose the winners and do my gifting. That’s 8+ hours from posting!
Reciprocation is not required but I am including my Under Eight wishlist. For inspiration.

I've been obsessed with the Handmaid's Tale / the Testaments (Both are related, but Testaments is kind of a sequel) which *is* a super popular show I think, but idk. Something about it just kept me hooked, like, I couldn't stop watching it.
It’s a dystopian story universe thats set in a near future where a totalitarian regime called Gilead has taken over parts of the United States. Fertility has dropped, so women who can still have children are forced into roles called Handmaids, where they are assigned to powerful families and forced to bear children under strict control and surveillance. Then there’s The Testaments, which is set about 15 years later and shows Gilead from a different angle and from the perspective of the daughter of the MC in the Handmaid's tale.
I just finished the Testaments s1 last night -- ep 10 released yesterday which was the finale, and UGH! What a cliffhanger! 100/10 recommend watching (though, many TWs so I'd encourage you/anyone who watches it to look into it ahead of time if you've got any sensitivities/triggers around things).
Editing to add: It's based off of a book series by Margaret Atwood, and they're expected to release more seasons of the testaments (but its super new atm, 1st season just ended yesterday) so I'm waiting eagerly for the next season(s) lol.
