On a rainy Monday when you have the day off, your laundry is caught up and your dinner is already made...what is the only thing that makes sense for you to do? But of course...head for a day at the casino, which is exactly what my gal pal and I did. And believe it or not, there were some bargain aspects to this fun...fun...fun outing. We took the bus which left from our Home Depot parking lot at 9am right to the casino front door by 10:10am (about a 50 minute ride)...no worries about filling up your gas tank or paying for parking...I'll score that as a savings. When you purchase your bus ticket, a $30 voucher is included...in other words, they are giving you $30 cash to gamble with before you start dipping into your own stash of money. Cool...you have a chance to play with "their " money and maybe win it big!!!
Yes, gambling does make one very hungry and we chose to go the huge buffet route. I think every country was represented in this smorgasbord of food and then some. Hey...you can eat as much as you possible can, you can go up as much as you want, and yes don't forget to have dessert as many times as you want to... all of this for one price. Not bad!!! My pal and I were so engrossed in the 1, 2 and 10 cent machines that we never even played the 25 cent slot machines...yes you can win big on these. As I learned that afternoon, those machines can be bargains if you play them right. We had to be back at the bus by 3:30 and head for home...and by 5pm I was already pulling up in my driveway.
So did we win or loose? Well...we...each won a $100 so I text my hubby a"thumbs up". This was an early birthday present to me from my pal...and so here is how it goes...my friend and I got to spend the day together...we both love to gamble and we know how to rock it out and come home a winner!
