Take Car or Bus

October 7th, 2008 at 08:54 pm

Well I didn't go to the city last week for my monthly lunch date as planned. But I needed to pay my credit card as it was due.

Instead of taking the car as usual with cost of gas the days, I took the bus and went into the city costing $2.20 for senior off peak day trip ticket.

The plan was to pay the credit card in full and take some cash of the bank and buy a pair of hosiery, but first as it was lunch time so I walked up the casino for lunch as at treat. The first thing was to play to machines for 5 minutes before I go to lunch. I like to play on one machine (1c only ones I play) if its not being used. I put my $2.00 in after 6 spins the jacket pot spin came up winning enough to play for 15 minute and a free lunch of Chicken Schnitzel with chips & salad, coming out even.

Later I went off to do my banking and the shopping for my friend.

My days outing cost $2.20 fare plus $60 on the credit card. Free a lunch and playing pokies, good walk down the Mall and three hours out of the house.

    It sounds as if you definitely got your money's worth in terms of entertainment at a low cost. Your experience reinforces that it is possible to have fun without spending lots.

    I have done it twice now!

    But I do allow $4.00 to gamble plus lunch when I go to the casino. If I come out even I am happy, its not something that I do a lot,about once or twice per month if that! I dont like to lose money so I put a limit on what I spend. Learnt to walk away very early in life.
