Members Thunderbroom Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 I was looking for the receipt for my son's Xbox 360 (just got the Red Ring of Death) and found $150 in $10's and $20's! Whoohoo! It's gig money that I wadded up and stuck in the pile of crap and forgot about. Nice find though. I'm putting back with my gig money so I can pull the trigger when the mood strikes me.
Members bassman1956 Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 Your wife's gonna want it back...
Members Thunderbroom Posted October 27, 2007 Author Members Posted October 27, 2007 Your wife's gonna want it back... I don't think so. My gig money is my money. I've paid for every thing I've purchased this year with gig money and still have $1k+ left. The money I earn at the College is her/our money. The money that I earn with my business is my/our money.
Members King Kashue Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 Personally, I'm never happy to realize "Hey, I pay so little attention to things that I misplaced money and didn't even notice"
Members Thunderbroom Posted October 27, 2007 Author Members Posted October 27, 2007 Personally, I'm never happy to realize "Hey, I pay so little attention to things that I misplaced money and didn't even notice" Or it could be that I've got so much rolling in that I didn't miss it.
Members rummy Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 Time for another GTG. T-Broom's buyin'!
Members Thunderbroom Posted October 27, 2007 Author Members Posted October 27, 2007 Time for another GTG. T-Broom's buyin'! I can do that.
Members xOriginalNinjax Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 I can do that. Does that include the gas for me to get up there???? Cuz I'm TOTALLY there then!

Members Thunderbroom Posted October 27, 2007 Author Members Posted October 27, 2007 That must be it...Professors are notorious for misplacing their many diamond studded money clips Professors, and consultants and gigging musicians all rolled into one.
Members King Kashue Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 Professors, and consultants and gigging musicians all rolled into one. Man, professor and musician? Those two alone are like saying "Baseball player and Fortune 500 CEO"

Members Low Tone Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 How fortuitous! I was just going to ask you if I could borrow $150!
Members Crescent Seven Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 Man. I'm not a broke ass but I'd know it if I misplaced $150. I wanna come roll with you, T-broom, because obviously your Pimph Kharma is greater than mine. C7
Members lokidecat Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 I stuff a $20 in my winter jacket before I hang it up in Spring. Every fall I forget about it, and reach in my pocket, and it just brightens my day. Sounds dumb, but I like it.
Members Thunderbroom Posted October 27, 2007 Author Members Posted October 27, 2007 I normally keep my gig money in my top dresser drawer. I'm guessing that I just unloaded my pockets downstairs in my office and somehow just pushed it to the side. I didn't miss it because honestly I don't pay attention to the gig money since it's not used to pay bills.

Members bpocall Posted October 27, 2007 Members Posted October 27, 2007 If you registered online, you don't need the receipt. They didn't even ask about mine.

I've got the receipt but never registered. I'm going to call Toys 'R Us in the morning about this. Do you know how they handle the Red Ring of Death? Will I have to ship it back or do you think that TRU will just give me a new one?
