My mommy tells me so...

I'm a winner.

It's the whole Pasta for Pennies thing, you know. My school's campaign does really well, and I'm kinda in charge of it and all.

But more importantly today is the fact that my wife's school's campaign just finished up today (they'll probably clear about $5000 - awesome), and they had a big raffle going.

Instead of the way that we run our raffle (the coordinators aren't allowed to win), she put in tickets and let me drop my $20 for thirty tickets spread among various baskets.

I won, of course, and am now the proud owner of...

• $25 at Wings & Rings
• $20 + a free appetizer at PF Chang's
• four free Chili's kid's meals
• five free video rentals (along with half price rentals for two weeks after each one) at Family Video
• $3 at Red Robin
• 1 free appetizer at Johnny Carino's
• $10 at Jocko's World Famous Chicken & Seafood
• $25 at Texas Roadhouse
• Two BOGO's to the Beach
• Two free entrees at Applebee's
• $10 at Fat Wally's
• and a decently useful greeting card organizer from Barnes & Noble

Other than the time my name got pulled out twice to win mugs for having sold two whole magazine subscriptions when I was in third grade, this is the best day of my life.

Anybody know of any kids who like eating at Chili's?
