    Unexpected Found Money

    Reply Contact

    Friday I bought the ingredients to make Chex Party Mix. I didn't pay attention to the fact that Cheerios could contain a Discover Card for $5.00 or $25.00. One in 10 boxes had a card.

    Imagine my delight and surprise to find out that I had a $5.00 prepaid Discover Card.

    I believe that I'll use it on Monday when I go to Red Robin with my widowed friend.

    Did I mention that I had a better holiday than usual ? Normally holidays are difficult for me as I miss the way life used to be before Mom had her stroke and the deaths of my half-brother and step-father.

     Great! I got one of those in the spring on cereal that i only paid .50 for because of double coupons.

    When I asked God "why don't you help all the suffering people?" He said "thats what I put you here for".
