As usual, you made me laugh. I enjoyed reading your story. I've only won a site contest once, and I would definitely call it an event. LOL. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

A very clever and fun read. I enjoyed reading the different ideas of how you would spend the much sought-after $100.
My husband was excited that he won a $250 gift card. I enjoyed spending it!
Good luck in the contest. I hope you do see that $100.
Best wishes,
Mary

LOL, some great humor and satire in this piece, as I know you are good at writing. I had to check the rules because I am pretty sure the intent of the contest is for non-fiction entries. But the rules don't really specify that. In my mind, it just adds to the humor. Good luck. I saw one typo--add (ad). Terry.

    Thank you for the great review and for catching the goof, Terry. Oh, I know this doesn't stand a chance. For one, I know they won't even consider this as a story. Crap, I don't. Haha. I was just in one of those moods to have a couple drinks and a laugh along the way. I really appreciate the stars, friend. I'm glad you liked this ridiculous piece.

Writer...
This is a funny post. You put that $100 gift card through so many scenarios I lost track.

Humorous entry, best of luck in the contest.

Hi am lol here as I was listening to the story being read to me. I enjoyed it very much. You made a wonderful day that I had and now a more wonderful day with your precious story. I enjoyed this so much and I would give you a six, but I'm all out of sixes at this point. I think I'd be just as excited if I were to ever win the $100 from fan story too, no such luck for me yet.

The opening will draw the reader in: "I remember it like it was just yesterday, a dream I had spent chasing for more years than I can even count." This is amusing and yet some will disagree: " What Dollar Store gifts I could buy her for our twentieth anniversary" The 'what-if' will be snickered at, but we all do it. This is one of the main habits my character Bea the wee bear has.

This is a very interesting story you have penned for the Share Your Story contest. I don't think I have ever wanted to win a hundred dollars that bad! lol I would just say I haven't lost sleep over something like that. But we all have our wants and desires on this earth. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

I truly hope you win the hundred dollars. You could go wild in the dollar store. You could spend twenty-five dollars on your anniversary AND twenty-five on your wife's birthday, and still have money left over. I don't know if this piece meets the Share Your Story contest qualifications, but it meets the humorous thoughts qualifications. Best wishes in the contest.
