Today's Pick Me Up is so much fun!!! It's great to play the lottery, right. We all hope to win. But check this out. An man, who chooses to remain anonymous bought a Take Five ticket and brought it home for his wife. When they checked the numbers the next day, they realized that they had hit. And they were so happy. Winning $360 is pretty good. That's what they won...$360....or so they thought! When he went back to the store he bought the ticket and tried to collect, he got a pretty big surprise. The employee at the store told him the prize was too big to pick up at the store and he would have to go to the Lottery office to claim it. The man didn't understand. He said he knew the store had cashed out tickets for three to four hundred bucks before. That's when the store employee told him that his prize was not $360, but $360,000. The man couldn't believe. Called his wife and ran out the door saying I'm going to cash this right now! And he did. First thing they did with the money....write a $10,000 check for their son and daughter-in-law, as they are expecting their first child, the couples first grandchild. Rest of the money....going straight into the retirement fund! Love this story!!!
