    Congratulations, hux! The prob usually is that by the end of the money there's still so much month left, but it looks like you gained enough for a few comfy months :)

    Latest purchase: breakfast (a poppy-snickerdoodle) and a cross-stitch keyring set with violets (I happen to live in Violet Lane :) - paradoxely enough it's actually a pear tree alley and the only violets in all the street grow in a flower box on my terrace)

    The reason I won so much is because the casino has a side bet where if you get ace/king suited and the dealer also gets ace/king suited, you win one of their jackpots (which at that point was just over five grand).

    I got black jack (ace/king of spades) and thought, greater I've won this game... then the dealer got black jack too (ace/king clubs) and I thought... Damn! I havent won...The dealer then pointed out that I'd just won one of their jackpots.

    I pre-ordered Uncharted 4 from the PSN store so I can play it as soon as it's released tomorrow.
    I also got Collateral, Insurgent and MI: Rogue Nation on Blu-ray.

    Upgrade to First Class for my wifes flight, from Syracuse to Washington DC. She has 2 checked bags and that would be $60, the upgrade to First Class was $50 and that got you 3 checked bags for free. So it seemed like a no brainer.

    Three 3.75" figures from The Force Awakens that I didn't already have. I bought them at my friend's local toy shop because it's the only place that seems to be carrying the figures I've been wanting.
