u/deleted user: My grandfather was the world’s most cheap person. I got a $30 gift card from him after he d!ed. For some reason, I chose to use it instead of giving it away.
There was a time in my life before and after that event. When I gave the checker the card, her face turned pale.
Cashier: That’s not possible, where did you get that?
Me: Uh… My grandfather owned it.
Cashier: ”STOP EVERYONE!”. IN FRONT OF US is the winner of our store’s secret contest that has been going on for ten years!
The cashier was very excited to tell the customer that the gift card was a special promotional item that had a million-dollar prize that had been unused for years.
