Bet YOU Don't Have One....

I have this weird little knack for winning things.

Babygator and Bebo were both here tonight when the UPS guy pulled up. We excitedly gathered around to open the package and.....

I won a 4 foot long inflatable shrimp.

Now....who else do you know that has one of these??

I knew you would not believe me so I took a picture of it to prove it!! It was one of 1000 grandprizes awarded in the McCormick's Spice Contest. I won the giant shrimp, 2 BIG containers of Old Bay seasoning and $30.00 that can be used towards buying shrimp. Too heck with buying shrimp...I am going shopping!! Unless Bebo starts having nightmares about the giant shrimp and then maybe the money will have to go towards therapy.

~thinks.....hhhmmm......maybe a post about all I have won in the last few months is in order....~

  10. Love Old Bay season. Never won a shrimp, though.

  11. At four foot long, it's not really a SHRIMP, though, is it?

    I'm always complaining (in my head) that I never win anything...but I never knew they had prizes like THAT! Enjoy the spice!

  14. Hmm. It looks kind of like an Armadillo to me . . . I certainly hope you are volunteering to do the children's moment at your church soon with this as your prop.

  18. Hey, that's almost as cool as the leg lamp won by the dad in "Christmas Story." We actually have a leg lamp ornament for our tree - courtesy of Gifted & Talented and the internet.

  19. Do you like shrimp? I mean for eating? I can imagine they would be rare in fake cow city.

  21. Lord knows I don't LURK here, so I can't UN-LURK. But Happy Thanksgiving week to you and yours!

  22. That looks like something I would win.

    You could use it for a Beach theme for VBS or something.
