This is a question Unexpected Good Fortune

Travelling through Seattle a good 15 years ago, I remembered an old friend I used to blow up Action Men with. We were bored, nothing to lose , so I looked him up in the phonebook. He was the only one of that name in there. "Come and stay," goes he.

Me and my mates were living in a car at that point so a bed was a novelty. After searching for a while, we rock up to a very posh mansion on Puget Sound with its own Helipad. "Come flying," goes he.

Has your luck held out recently?

This is a QotW answer Amazon.com Cockup
Wanted a new camera. Found one on Amazon.com

Shiny toy. £50. Bought it. Got it. Nice.

Wanted to show someone at work the spec for new toy. Went on Amazon again - stock had gone from 'lots' to zero in 3 days.

Went back on Amazon today (couple of weeks later) and they have them back in ... for £750!!

Seven hundred squiddle saving. RESULT! No wonder they sold out so quickly.
