Sent hubby off with last weeks lottery tickets to see if we'd won anything, just had a text from him to say "You're not gonna believe this, but we've just won $2"
I sent a txt back saying "Wow, a whole 2 dollars, what shall we spend it on?"
He rings saying....not 2 dollars honey....$2690.00!!!!
Woohoo!! |

Unfortunately, your hubby also informed you that in order to release the money, you have to wire him $350 in release fees. . . .

I'm quite sure that's not true and even if it was IWM has sufficient experience to send hubby down to the local shops on some rediculous errand if required. |

Congratulations! It's always nice to get a windfall. Here's what I do with unexpected windfalls: Divide it by 3. Spend 1/3, save the other 1/3 and give 1/3 to charity.
I figure that, as the money wasn't planned to come into my hands anyway, I'm still 2/3 better off after giving to charity than before. |

I win the UK national lottery twice a week. When it's about to be drawn I scribble down 6 numbers and when none of them come up I've won a pound.
Made an absolute killing so far!

Funny, some call lotteries an "idiot tax."
The closest I came to winning an "idiot tax" was a trip in Vegas a few years ago. A friend stated we should bet $10 on the NE Patriots to win the Superbowl.
To those born in regions outside of the Warm Glow of the American Empire, the NE Patriots traditionally played American football about as well as a Americans play in the World Cup--not well at all! So I informed my friend that I would invest my $10 "on something useful like half a lap dance or something."
He bet.
The year was 2001. [NE Patriots win their first Super Bowl.--Ed.]
He paid for both of our return trips on the winnings on that bet.
It pays to be lucky.

I think I've only ever bought about 5 lottery tickets in my life, never won anything before, but a couple of weeks ago, I was having a real bad day and I thought "Sod it, either scratch cards or lottery...."
I decided on lotto and then totally forgot all about it until today when I saw them in my purse and laughed as I took them out, giving them to hubby.
My words were "Might as well take these to see what we've not won."
Now we're $2690 up!!!!
@Luther - I give $100 every month to Save the children and the SPCA, so this money's going on us!! |

Congrats!

Excellent!!! You could buy 4483 vicodins with that!!!
I like to take $2 winning scratch-off tickets directly to the lottery office, it's near my office. They can't issue cash there, only take your info and send a you a check. Nothing like getting a $2 checks from the lottery. |

The $2 check thing first started as revenge against my ex-wife, the ball-busting hellbeast with no soul. One night as I was asleep, she was going through my wallet looking for hidden cash and she saw my lotto ticket in there. As a joke, she wrote down one of the sets of numbers on a piece of paper and put it on the coffee table.. When I woke up the next day, she told me she wrote the winning lottery numbers on a piece of paper by the coffee table. I thought I had won 54 million bucks and was already mentally spending about 6 million of it when the evil slag started laughing. I wanted to kill her. Months later, I won 2 bucks on a scratch ticket, took it to the lottery office and made them send me a check for 2 bucks. Naturally, I told the hellbeast I had won $10,000 and the lotto office was sending a check since the stores couldn't give me cash for an amount that large. So she waited, drooling for three days for the mail to come so she could snag the check and go on a shopping spree. Needless to say, when the check arrived for 2 bucks, she was a bit angry. "Revenge is a dish best served cold" - Kahn. With that kind of love, I wonder sometimes why we didn't stay married....

You deserve everything you get R8 - I used to hide my cash all over the house and surreptitiously watch my BB-ing HB from H go frantic searching for it...

Me: "What are you doing up there?"
Her: "There seems to be something wrong with the TV aerial..."

@Reprob8 -
Wow! I can't believe we don't know each other IRL. I was also married to the ball-busting hellbeast with no soul. What a coincidence! |
