I received an unexpected inheritance. It was a WhOOO HOOO phone call;)

Yes a big surprise check!

Not yet...

My husband found a dollar on the ground...WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!!!!!! :P

$1900 from the asbestosis fund, but not completely unexpected. We get money from them from time to time....just never know how much or when.

Nothing here. Do I have to give away the money first"

No Ali, you don't have to give the money away first. Most of us keep it in a baggie to give away when the time or need arises. I actually have mine in my wallet to give as a tip, I never think of using it though!

Not unexpected but I am going to receive my first Social Security spouse benefit check 2/3....

Not yet.

Yes. So far, a $115 class action settlement that we didn't know was going on and a $90 refund for a hospital billl adjustment and $8 in lottery winnings from scratchers that was gifts to us (we didn't buy the tickets). lol

And no, I don't for a minute believe it's because we buried the money but I have always done it so who knows?

Yes, we did. We received an unexpected royalty check. Not a whole lot, but unexpected.

Yes. I am ahead of the game on the slot machines so far this year. Not a lot but I'm playing with their money, so I am happy.

We got another check from the asbestosis fund today. $1300. Like I said before, we never know how much or when, but it was a nice little shot in the arm, because Jody isn't working right now.

$10 from Target guest relations, not sure why. $15 from sams,club .com. I thought I did something wrong when I signed up because it took a while to come. That must mean my $45 scan & go credit from them is loaded too. And I found 5 quarters when i swept the garage! I didn't bury any money. Maybe the hidden quarter counted as that. I found them first.

The lottery scratch winnings are still going strong. I got $28 yesterday off a $3 ticket. But not only that, I've had hubby's watch for sale for a while. The watch I liked best I got sized for me, but I'm selling another. As usual, I've had low-balls, but today I got an email inquiring about it.

An older gentleman was interested and he came here. I met him downstairs, and we sat in his truck and had the nicest visit. It turns out he has the exact same watch but his is very worn, the bracelet is loosening and the face is all scratched. Ours is in mint condition.

Because it was going to such a good home, and we commiserated with our sorrows (my recent loss and his of a son of a heart-attack at 47), I knocked some money off the price. He gave me the cash and then also the extra, and ask that I donate it; (the extra portion). I have it with the buried money and will certainly do that.

Jasdip that was so nice of you and the gentleman.
