Here at work....we have an "oldies" station that we listen to most of the time. They run contests frequently...I seem to have a good luck streak with winning their contests...Every morning, they have a trivia question, you have to name the month/year of said trivia question...then periodically they run a contest, called the "money monkey"...where if you hear the monkey screech...call in, be caller number 9...you win roughly around $100.....they also run the secret sound contest as well..where they play a snippet of a "sound"...that sound may be anything, like door shutting, coins into a slot, you get the picuture..
Well, over the past year, I have won a half dozen times...the secret sound and the trivia question. 2 weeks ago I won the trivia question...scoring free Pizza Hut pizza ,tickets to a couple different shows in the area...i.e..antique/Christmas shows.....I lost the coupon for free pizza, didn't make to either of the shows I had tickets for...so, winning that go round..was a waste...due to the fact that you can only win one time per month...
Well, last Friday....I hear the money monkey screech...I picked up the phone, started dialing, never expecting to get through...little long win...guess what? I won...and I had to lie...I gave my co-workers name, while she was laughing and sribbling down her information..while I pretended to be her with the d.j..I told her as I was dialing, I would have to pretend to be her, if I got through, I would split the prize with her.....she picks the money up tomorrow...on top of winning the money, she automatically gets registered for a drawing for a trip to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic...
all expenses paid.
The Quandry I face...I called, I acutally won the money, registering for the trip...in her name...Watch her win the freaking trip!....I get to stay here and enjoy the $50 I won from the split..eating the pizza I won, honestly, from the trivia win last week...if I find the coupon I lost...
