Sneakiness

[superbadgirl]

I finally did it - I covertly bought and sent a fair amount in grocery store gift certificates to my parents, so that when month end comes they will have money for food. I have to say it's kind of exhilirating doing things anonymously. They'll figure it out eventually, I suppose, because they'll contact all of us kids and interrogate until someone (me) cracks.

I hope they don't figure it out until I'm able to do it a couple of times.

I originally sent them a Wal-Mart gift card, but I suspect they thought it was junk mail and tossed it out. Heh.

:-( That happened to me once. Some friends of mine sent me a gift certificate to a gardening catalog. It was a place where you could buy seeds and bugs (yes, good bugs for your garden and things like that). The gift certificate was sent in a package with a catalog. I'd never heard of this place and knew nothing about it, so I just thought it was junk mail and threw the whole thing away. *g* I think I did that twice before they finally had to tell me about it and spoil the surprise so I wouldn't do it again. *g*

That's too bad about the wasted Walmart card, though. :-(
