As you all know today is my Birthday. Yep I turned 29 again . Well one of my birthday gifts was a pair of slippers. Somehow she thought something was wrong with the ones that I had for 17 years. The holes were a plus because they vented the stench of those old buggers! Well turns out those slippers did not fit me right. So we went back to return them then went to... Kmart to see if they had anything and yep they did. Fit me great and all. So as I am walking out here stands an instant lottery machine. I said what the hell, it's my birthday maybe I will get lucky and win myself $2 with $1. I looked at two different kinds and went with one. Nada. So I started to walk out and then my conscience kept telling me to go play again and try the other one. So I went back and did and I WON! Not $2, not $5, but $20! The reason I am so excited about it is because I am the kind of person who just does not win anything and the rare times I do I may win another ticket or $2 if I am really lucky. And of all times on my birthday! Anyone else have any stories of winning something unexpected? JS

$20 isn't much, but it's cool that you won something. The most I've won from a scratch-it ticket was $5.

Well, once my brother bought ten bucks worth of two dollar tickets and scratched four of 'em and won nothing... So, he gave me the other and said "Here, I'm just gonna lose again" and I won ten dollars. 8) 8)

Congratulations birthday boy.
But I have to admit, I'm the same way, I never win anything, lol.
Oh, and about winning things, I had won an HD Stage on here from a guy that used to post on here, regal101, but, shortly after that, he stopped posting on here, and I never heard from him again. But, since I didn't loose anything, I'm not too mad over it.

It's not actually a lot of money of course, but to someone who never wins nuttin it's AWESOME! im the same way. lol i keep playing deal or no deal on the net and i NEVER take the deal. sometimes i end up with $300. My fiancee kept getting mad at me. I told him that it's not costing me anything so if I win anything at all I'm that much richer. Even it's just a penny. I'm a penny richer -abcs
