Excited or Concerned?

I entered a contest at a local bookstore to win a $100 gift certificate and got a call tonight that I was a winner.

Of another prize.

The sponsor of the contest was a local cemetery.

And I won a burial plot.

Umm...thanks?

    OK, that is priceless! Congratulations on your 'prize'! (However, given the cost of burial plots, perhaps this is the better prize? Unless you have to claim it by a certain date...)

    That's hilarious! But, like Grace Unbound said, they are pretty expensive... Now you can "rest in peace" knowing your kids won't have to worry about it one day. *groan* I know, I just couldn't help myself, sorry. ;)

    Um, so where is Rick going to "sleep."
    Although-as a mother of 4 having a plot all to yourself may just give you the rest and relaxation you need! Finally! Some peace and quiet!!!!!! I agree with the poster who said this could only happen to you!
