Winner

Entering contests runs in the family. I've entered my fair share and in the past year, I have won several.

Two Christmases ago, I won a $100 Peapod gift card (grocery delivery service). I used it to stock up on all beef nitrate free hot dogs, laundry detergent, ziploc bags, and much more. It was awesome.

This past Christmas, I won the Minions movie from Boston Parents Paper. I haven't actually seen it, but from what I've heard driving in the van, it seems pretty funny.

Most recently, I won a shipment of specialty cheeses from Cabot. It was supposed to be a selection of cheese, chocolate, and berries, but I only ever got the cheese. We either need to have a cheese tasting party or I should donate it to the local food pantry because the kids are picky about cheese and really only like yellow cheese and Preston can't have dairy. I do like the cheese slicer and the cheese board, though. And the cheddar shaker cheese is really good on popcorn.

UPDATE 3/28/16: Just as we were walking out the door to go to VA last week, a box of strawberries showed up. They were giant and delicious. I'm expecting chocolate any day. Also, the cheese slicer broke.

 I am pretty disappointed that I didn't win the new GM or Buick vehicle (up to $80,000) that I entered to win last year, and I have yet to win a large denomination gift card from doing the surveys on my receipts, but I will keep doing it, because winning is fun, which I why I voted for Trump. I would like to win so much I have a headache from all the winning. Wouldn't you?
