Little Victories
I recently received a £2 voucher from a supermarket after complaining vociferously about the poor quality of their own-brand Rich Tea biscuits, which I spent on more tasty, tasty biscuits. Tell us about your trivial victories that have made life a tiny bit better.

I never understood the appeal of gambling.
"Proper gambling", as I call it, is far too much work -- either learning about "form" or counting cards. I'd rather have an easier job and forgoe the champagne lifestyle.
The lottery also is something I don't understand. You've got about the same odds of winning as falling over, hitting your head, and discovering the flux-capacitor.
This did make me think of a new kind of gambling:
"CV lottery": Regularly apply for jobs you fancy, or that are better paid, and see what happens.
