Free stuff

I won a battery charger at a Honee Bear Canning Xmas party once. I didn't own a car. I traded it to a fellow worker for his prize, which was a free meal at the diner uptown. It was for 3 people. Me, Jed and Eddie, who were just little kids at the time. It was winter, we walked up there and they had waffles and bacon and I had taters and eggs.

apparently one of my fave ebay sellers likes my hubby and his odd taste in music, she sent him a swans cd he didn't have with a nice little birthday card written in german( they are both german) that translates to" happiness with sad music for your birthday", i thought that was very nice of her.

Does free money count? i was waiting in the doctor's office to see the doctor, when a woman walked up and handed me $20.00. I 1st refused it, then when she persisted in giving me the money, I accepted it. The $20.00 went to buy gas for the car.

Not sure if this counts or not, but the Wednesday before Thanksgiving my daughter and I were leaving the house to goto the store.  One of my neighbors drove up and ask if we saw Mitchell (Lab puppy).  We didn't and she said he got out of the house and took off running.  We drove around to help look for him, and we eventually found him.  He's such a good boy, that in the middle of running as fast as he could he came to a halt when he heard my daughter call his name, and came running over to me when I called him.  We put him in the car and took him home.  Yesterday they have us $150 in Target gift cards as a "Thank You".  I was totally blown away!  I was just helping out a neighbor, I never even thought about any sort of reward.  Christmas will be a nicer for the kids this year, that's for sure!

They had this Summer contest going on at a local gas station chain where you could enter the code on your receipt and win prizes in a random drawing.  On a lark, I put one in an ended up winning a new set of camping gear (it was this two person tent).  I don't go camping myself, so I went and sold it on eBay.  It was fortunate cause I was unemployed and almost flat broke at the time. 

I also one got a coupon for a FREE pizza (the gas station makes and sells surprisingly good pizza.)

I need to switch doctors apparently.
