Yesterday was touted as a special day for being lucky, with all the one’s in a row. On Wednesday, my international student from China brought me lunch, and as we shared a delicious feast and spicy chat, he revealed that because I am a Rooster in the Chinese zodiac, it could be a great day for me in many ways, including financial reward. Huzzah! After the thousand dollar vet hit, I could use some financial reward, AND the girls were meeting at a local casino for the all-you-can-eat buffet, just what all of us need prior to gorging during T’giving eating celebrations. With the stars aligned with such potential, it was all systems go.
I decided to walk on the wild side and tucked a twenty into the spending compartment of my wallet and off I went. First, we all signed up for a casino card because we each saved 10% at the buffet: ka-ching. Then, I decided to put my four dollar bills into the penny slots outside the buffet line and, ka-ching, I won $9.00! Of course, the biggest win of the day was the next hour spent sampling the buffet, but when it was time to leave, one of the gals and I decided to spend our way back to the exit. Yep: one dollar in and $10 back, so I left clutching my cash in hand and had a ball in the process.
Deciding that I had something to crow about, I stopped at one of the convenience gas stations that sell all the lottery items and bought 5 scratchers and 5 quick picks for Saturday’s drawing. Another ka-ching: spent $5 on scratchers and had a $5 winner. Won’t know about the quick picks, but I’ve already had so much fun risking it all for instant wealth that regardless of the outcome, it’s been a hoot.
