More to Scratch in a machine

February 1, 2007

I admit. I truly do. Those lottery scratch and win ticket machines are so tempting. What can’t vending machines do nowadays? I was recently in Meijer today getting some supplies for dinner when there it stood in all it’s glory. The scratch and win Vending machine. I basked in its glow. It’s soft inviting neon lighted numbers letting me know how much I would have to invest to deserve a chance for a warm soothing ticket that could be the answer to my car payment problems.

I stuck my dollar in and choose the lowest payout game they had there for a buck which was Kitty Cash. Strange game, you get 6 scratches and at least 3 have to be the same to win said prize, or 2 and the special icon for double the amount. I scratched it off with my lucky nickel I use for the same purpose of winning. Alas, nothing. I didn’t win zilch. That leaves my scratch and win earnings at $0. What can I say, It was a good run. Will I keep it up? Sure I will!! Well, not as frequently anyways until I get some money which brings me to another subject. I’ll will now proceed with the whore out of this blog. That’s right, I’ve recruited top technicians in their field of expertise!!…..or if you don’t buy that, I’m putting up my paypal name to beg for money as well as putting up google adsense to generate some profit to feed my addiction.

Want to know what you can do to promote yourself and give me some money and possibly yourself some as well? Just check on the right side of the blog on the main page for future reference, but for now I’ll just copy and paste:

Now i’m not asking for handouts….well ya, I really am asking for handouts to feed the addiction. Which is why I’m here to propose some business deals to all you people out there to make me some money and quite possibly yourself as well. Here’s how it’s going to work. It’s based on giving me money via paypal and I’ve come up with a few ways to help me out and help you out in the process.

1.) For $1 sent, I will personally buy a scratch and win ticket on Saturday and split half the winnings with the person who sent the cash. Will it be 50 cents? Will it be $1000? Who knows! Let your good pal Cliff help your odds of winning as well as supporting my cause. Of course you’ll get a personal photo of the actual ticket itself. Maybe a small video to prove it if your THAT anal about whether or not your a winner. Oh ya, and you get no say in what kind of ticket, it’ll be a $1 ticket, or a $2 dollar ticket. Pending on your cashflow, i’m not going to go tracking down “Super Slot Cash Scratch” for a dollar and waste 5 bucks in gas finding it. It’ll be a random generic ticket of my choice.

2.) For $1 sent, you will be mentioned in Saturdays “Shameless Plugs of the Week” in which I will make a post about all the Shameless Plugs I’ve put on through the week. What does that exactly mean? Well the day you send your dollar I will post and let the world know who you are and a website address where they can go to. Think of it as a nice and easy way to whore out your website. Your name, your URL and a small 20 wordish description of what it’s all about. For a buck. TWICE. Once the day you send it and again that Saturday. If you send it to me on a Saturday, you get pretty much two plugs, but both in the same day.

3.) Want to be a sponsor on my blog? Let everybody know your donating to me and want your name in a hall of fame donator spot in a possible book? All you got to do is send a minimum $15 donation and that can happen!! Not convinced that’s worth it? I’ll put ya down every week on Saturdays “Shamless Plug of the Week” with your name, URL, small description and how much you donated.

If your interested in any of this the name you want to send all your loving hard earned money to…as well as investments, send them all too:

canowicki@yahoo.com

Send away!

P.S. Make sure to email me at that name as well to give me heads up.

Doesn’t the thought of pimping out your website and giving Cliff money just give you a big warm fuzzy inside? Well it should. That’s all that’s on my lottery mind today, I’m waiting for the big Mega Millions jackpot tomorrow, $65 million here I come!!
