Don’t You Love Finding Money?

While I did not win the lottery the other day, I did have a pleasant surprise today as I scored myself some free money.

Not Brown Bagging Today.
One of my co-workers asked me if I wanted to go out for lunch today and after giving it some thought, I decided to go as I was really in need of a break outside of the office today. Well, it must have been my lucky day today because I was able to eat for free and that is even more LBYM than brown-bagging my lunch.

Loving Free Money.
As we pulled into the parking lot and everyone got out of the car, I turned and noticed a $10 bill plastered to a wet spot in the parking lot. Score! From the look of it, this $10 bill had been there for quite some time and numerous cars probably drove right over it while pulling into the parking space.

Needless to say, I peeled that $10 bill right off of the parking lot and was feeling rather pleased that I decided to go out for lunch today. The best part is that I was able to pay for my lunch and still have a couple of dollars left over. It doesn’t get much better than that now does it? :)

    I love it when I find money, it’s been a while but last time I found a $50 bill and 4 feet from that I found a $20 and then I found a $5. It was like someone had a hole in their pocket. It was along the street beside the sidewalk. Weird huh?

    • Lol, now that sounds like it would have been a great day to find that kind of money. It does sound like someone had a hole in their pocket or maybe someone was making a quick getaway after swiping some cash and dropped some along the way.
