Today I...

......thrifted a good pile of old stuff at one of my LOL thrifts.  (photos to come)

......ate at Chik-fil-A and got mentioned in their Instagram post.

.....got a coupon for a FREE product in the mail, went to the store and had it in my hand within the hour.

......got a text from the corner convenience store for a FREE V-8 smoothie.

......got a coupon in the mail for a BOGO lottery ticket.

......found two brand new shiny pennies in two different parking lots.   Whenever I find a penny, I buy a lottery ticket and use that penny to scratch it off.

...stopped at the convenience store - got my FREE Smoothie and used my BOGO coupon to get two lottery tickets.

......used my lucky shiny pennies to scratch my tickets and I won FIFTY BUCKS.

Not a bad day, right?

'bout damn time.

Sometimes, it's just the little things.

How was your day?

    1. My pennies were both tails up, but I use them as scratchers to flip the negative to a positive!

  2. I can't stop wondering what you did at Chick-Fil-A to get them to mention you on Instagram? You had all your clothes on, right?

    1. Lord have mercy at the idea of ME naked at ChickfilA. Well, anyone for that matter! A boy had asked a girl to go to the Prom out on the marquee so I asked if she said YES on their post. Pretty unexciting, right??? PS She said, Yes!

    1. We used to take our taxes to the retired old man freebie place and they would peck out everything one key at a time with one finger and make SO many errors. I would offer to type it and they were always so thankful. Dude, I got a life I need to get outta here!

  8. Shouldn't there be one more step, where you take the 50 to the thrift and shop til you drop? Lots of little good things make for a good day, always! Couldn't happen to a nicer person!

  10. Thats what I call a hot streak. Now ride that sucker out, take that $50 and go find something you can flip for $500! Then call me so I can hang out with you and your good luck will rub off on me.

  12. What a great day of happy surprises. Love that you use pennies from heaven to scratch your lottery tickets. My mother hoarded coins and she loved to gamble. Every time I find a penny I look up and say "thank you, I love you too". I think she would more than approve of me using them to scratch off a lottery ticket!
