A friend gave me a few scratch and win lottery tickets in my birthday card and I won!!!!!
:bliss:
$4. :lol2:
But still, I want a little help deciding how to spend my winnings. I don't want to just put it in my wallet and let it go randomly. I could go and buy 4 more scratch offs and try to win more...I could also lose it all with nothing to show for it either.
So, I've offered a few options. I'll go with the majority vote. Of if you have any fun suggestions, please suggest them!

I'd go for the cappucino, that way you are guaranteed to get something for your $4.

I'm voting other. Buy a small iced cap (how fantastic are they?! Don't you love them!) and put the rest toward new scratch tickets. :) Win-win. Possibly. :)

A new bottle of nailpolish will last you much longer than a cappucino. :nod: I'm all about long term gratification.

It tastes good, and you'll be supercharged for a little while. :ok:

They are the best. The best! And available almost everywhere in my area!!! :lol:
(And when I am in Canada too. :lol: )

I am a gambling woman, I would buy 4 more scratchies and see how far it will take me! :nod:
Congrats by the way, I am so jealous! :lol2:

Yeah, me too. Buy a blingy color. :giggle:
gulp!

I'm torn between the coffee and the nailpolish. I wouldn't push your luck by buying more tickets. :lol:

Paint your toes to match! And if you have any change left over, buy some chocolate...but not white chocolate.

If you buy a value meal from Mcdonald's that will stay with you long-term. :lol:
I voted to be brave and buy 4 more!

I think the iced cap probably would stay in the same way. :lol:

I would go to a bookstore that has a cafe (without the kids!). Get your coffee, then grab a bunch of magazines and read them.

Congrat's on your big win :yippee: :)

I keep forgetting you're practically Canadian! :lol:
Lynn has clearly never had an iced cap or she wouldn't be suggesting nail polish!

So what did you do?
If you're feeling lucky, cross over and buy a 6/49 ($36 million tax free) or Super 7 ($12 million tax free). You can use my address and bank account to claim your prize. :)

I'm probably too late, but I voted for buy more tickets. But I kinda like to gamble.

I haven't cashed in the tickets yet, so keep voting! :lol: My actual birthday is Wednesday, so I'll close the poll then. :nod:

I went w/ the polish. I see it and the option of 4 more tickets are neck in neck. The drink is ahead by a mere one vote. COME ON POLISH VOTERS!!!!
Ok, that looks funny. :lol2:

Nailpolish - some groovy winter color like garnet red or sparkly or something.
