My wife just won a 2003 Mini Cooper at a Safeway grocery store drawing sponsered by Pepsi today. She already named her Freeda because she was free. ( well almost ?) .We don't no how much the taxes and stuff will be yet but think we can deal with that. Now Buster will no longer be lonely at night in the garage. Ahhhh! The wife was so excited I'm sure everyone shopping for grapes and bread knew she was the winner.She was jumping up and down like Tigger and screaming and hugging the managers like a little kid. What a blast! Freeda only had 13 miles on her when we picked her up and ironically is the 13th Mini we have owned over our 29 years of marriage.( we are both crazy ---Ya think?)

Wow! Something tells me that the MINI Gods were thanking you for years of Patronage! Buy 12, get one free! Bakers dozen rules!

Congratulations!! That is great!
One of the Indian Gaming Casinos here is Southern California is advertising that you can win a mini as part of a jackpot. Hmmm, is it time to go there?

JB,

Which Indian Casino is giving away the MINI? We at SCMM are busy planning MINI events...maybe we could wrap the next one into a visit to the casino?!!! Cool!
