She was working though, so I went with a friend of ours that works with my wife. We got there in the last hour. First thing we did was get our prize tickets cuz they were giving away all kinds of stuff. Xbox, bikes, BBQ's, mini-fridge, etc.

ANYWAY, we got there in time for the last 4 prize drawings.

Denied on the Xbox.
Denied on the mini-fridge.
Denied on the adult bike.

APPROVED on the $250 gift card for Best Buy!!!!!!

WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT!!!!!

Unfortunately, the wife's b-day is the 28th, so I don't I'll get much of it. But I'm gonna try and weasel her in to splitting it 50/50 with me.

Anyway, that's my tuesday night story :)

It doesn't suck so much as just not rock.

Oh, it sucks if you've read bestbuysux.org.

What a dick! It's your wife's employer, she couldn't go and you want her to share it. No way. It should be hers, 100%, to spend as she sees fit.

Wow, some nice prizes, better than some crappy silverware or toasters. What company?

I won a 17 1/2 foot fiberglass canoe once at a company picnic.

Funny story. The girl I was dating at the time went with me and a guy I worked with dated her before I did. He was hitting on her all day, and when it came time to get in line for the raffle tickets he cut line in front of me (so he could continue hitting on my date) I ended up getting the ticket he WOULD have gotten if he hadn't been such a DICK! ;)

I got the boat AND the girl!!

He got to go home a spank it!!

Instant KARMA!! :)

Nice land on the prize!

When I was in college, I interned for a company that had anual winter parties. I always got stuck working the nights that the party was on so I could never attend. My boss would throw my name in the pot for door prizes for me.

One year I won $50 in gift certificates to a very nice restaurant in town. The second year I was there I won the grand prize $200 in cash. Without even being there. :)

Needless to say people were slightly miffed about the non-present intern winning the grandprize.

Fvck you dood.
A: She wouldn't have gone even if she didn't work.
B: She has never set foot in a BB, nor does she ever feel the need to.

Also, what on earth would she have gotten had I decided not to go? Last thing I wanted to do tonight was drag both kids out to downtown Seattle (we live in the burbs about 30+ min away) to go to HER work party of which I knew one person. So if I'm a dick for wanting to split something with my wife, you can just suck me.

While I can see you and I think alike, this friend is not like that. She's cool (ie she's got big fake boobs). But she is actually my best friend's ex from high school. Her and my wife are good friends now as we've both got little boy's and they get together for play dates and stuff. I still try and convince her from time to time to give me a quick glimpse of the sili-putty's ;):p She has yet to say ok tho.

Umm, wife? Implies Marriage.... implies there is no need to share, it's already shared. Whether it was his, or hers, they should still both decide what to do with it.

No sh!t! I get a bonus at work for busting my ass and the first thing my wife says is "What are we going to do with the bonus?"

Ahem...we?

heh, I wish it were that simple. But since it's her b-day she'll prolly end up using the most of it. I might get $50 bux out of it or so. But I was secretly hoarding about 50 bux for her b-day gift which I will now not have to use ;) :p



Oh, as far as other prizes, they had two 27" tv's, a couple 13" tv's, I saw a couple people walk off with little sony cd boom boxes. They had 6 or so adult mountain bikes and another handfull of (big) kids bikes (heh, they were kind of cool, spider man bikes).
