lew Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 I posted earlier today that I was purchasing a new cot for my tent from BPS this week and it was gonna cost me $100. Well, this afternoon I received a letter from the Princess Margaret Lottery folks telling me I'd won a prize in the latest draw and they enclosed a cheque for........you guessed it......$100 Fate....coincidence.....Karma ?? Whatever it was, ya gotta luv it when a plan comes together
misfish Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Lew with you,Karma is always around. Congrats.
danc Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Nice Lew. But just maybe you should have been planning to buy a new Mercedes this week instead of a cot. Good for you Bud..
Roy Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Happy for you, Lew. Joey and I were just discussing that very thing about 2 weeks ago. I missed though cause I was sure you'd get the house
bigbuck Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 NICE!!! A free cot, now you have the $100 that you were going to spend on the cot burning a hole in your pocket - dinner with the colonel or a few brand new muskie baits - hmmmmmmmmmmmmm......................
sonny Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 I'd say congrats but i know ya just got your money back on the ticket,,but still a nice surprise,,,maybe it means you should spent 200 bucks,,,lol
lew Posted May 20, 2008 Author Report Posted May 20, 2008 Thanks for the laffs fellas, but to be perfectly honest, the Princess Margaret Lottery is one I don't mind losing to cause even if my tickets don't win any prizes, my $$$$ has gone to a wonderful organization. We buy many $150 tickets every year and I can't think of a better place to give my money to.
ketchenany Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Sleep tight Lew, you helped a good cause and deserve it.
TJQ Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 Nice Lew. But just maybe you should have been planning to buy a new Mercedes this week instead of a cot. Good for you Bud.. hahahaha.... congrats Lew.. sleep well!
Moosebunk Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 Cot for tent..... sounds peaceful and comfortable.
Joey Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 That's fantastic Lew, I'm happy for you. I was crossing my fingers and toes for the house, but I guess its a start, next the dresser Way to go hon. Joey
mukluk Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 Lady luck loves you Lew! (tongue twister). Congratulations. Over the years I have donated $1100.00 but like you mentioned to a very worthwhile cause.
Big Cliff Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 Ahhhh, a nice cot in a tent; doubles your space as you can store stuff under the cot, no more sore hips or back in the morning, much easier to sit on than the ground, you are going to love it, I wouldn't go tenting without one anymore. The money to buy it.... well, good things come to those that deserve them! Congrats!
outllaw Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 Lew your buying a cot. with all the years of reading your good mornings would you really use it. congrats on your win. good karma to good folks.
