I won an XBox 360 Halo edition today
My local second-hand shop Cash Converters was running a big sale and contest.
Buy two games, get one free.
So I dropped about $130 on resaleable stuff today, and got some raffle tickets. You get one for every $50 you spend (I know, I think that's actually illegal too, but I wasn't going to tell the other customers that) so I earned two tickets.
The girl at the counter asked if I was going to be back for the drawing, at 6:30pm (I was there around lunchtime) she gave me a ticket that the last customer didn't want, because they were leaving town.
Of course, that free ticket was the winning one!!

The other prize was a Wii, another store regular won that one. Cat sold separately.

Thanks guys, I would probably keep and play it if it weren't for the fact that we have a PS3 and Wii now in the house...there's noplace for it! I'm letting her go, hopefully it will pay for the total of all my purchases. These seem to get $150ish so wish me luck!
