Yay for getting things cheap
I bought an amp off eBay a little while ago. There were two going, the first one finishing went up to over 120 quid, which would be a saving of 130 off store prices. Pretty gutted that I didn't win.

Luckily I won the second one, which went for an even tun. Saving money on subsequent victory is very satisfying.

I was once nearly responsible for my company being unable to deliver on a contract they won. Luckily, it turned out that somebody else not given back what I was supposed to be sending out, after they'd borrowed them to do their bit. They swore up and down that they didn't have them, foolishly I believed them and was about to own up to my boss when he goes "oh wait a bit, there they are". Don't know if that qualifies, but it certainly felt like I'd gotten away with it.
