Good Contest Idea? Suggestions please

on my new website, im running a contest. im giving away 2 gift cards, a $25 and a $20, for a computer shop.

i know parts can be expensive and since im doing this to get my site started, should i do the 2 i have now or make 1 bigger gift card of like $50? that way its more usable, and more stuff can be bought?

of if theres a better route to go please let me know.

the site is dellhaters.com, its for people who hate dells, and we provide pc support to new system builders, and a small gaming community

I think one bigger card worth $50 would be better than two cards worth $25 each. This way the card would be more usable and more stuff can be bought by the winner. Also the bigger prize value may attract more participants than what you might get with smaller value prizes.

I would say 2 smaller values would be better, as this way the chances of people entering is higher, whichc oudl encourage more people
