What was your recent random luck event?

Thought I'd make a casual thread about those nice moments where things worked out in your favor unexpectedly or something good randomly came your way.

I'll start:
I've put off re-ordering a skin cream online for like 2 months now even though I ran out ages ago. I just kept forgetting or procrastinating on it. Today I got two 15% coupons in the mail for it. By sheer luck, the procrastination worked in my favor. Now I'm extra incentivized to reorder too :P

I have a favorite pair of low rise jeans that I thrifted from my oldest sister and it has frayed ends and a hole in the back bottom. My granny left a container bowl of needle and thread and I had forgotten about it until today, so I stitched the small hole up and they're beautiful again! i also ended up finding my moms old Mossimo shirt and stitching that up as well ^^

I went to a yard sale the other day and one of the people happened to be my elderly neighbor, she had been selling some of her grandsons stuff after he went off to college and I got a ziplock bag full of RPG dice!!! And a really pretty D20 necklace that I want to show off

putting a coin in a soda vending machine and pushing on the button doesn't do anything. A bit frustrated I slap the machine on the side saying "Come on I'm not letting you stealing my money, give me my can" there's a rumble and to my surprise there's two Orangina cans rolliing down.

It really made my day, I offered the second one to a friend

I went to a bunch of yard sales with my girlfriend on Saturday and I found an unidentified fountain pen that the seller gave me for free which cleaned up great and writes amazingly! After that I found a Hugo Boss suit jacket that was basically new and I picked up for ten bucks. So now I have a job interview outfit again!

I just got paid twice by my employee!

I normally take the highway when i drive home from work. A couple months ago i happened to take a longer route instead and it turned out there had been a fire along my usual route and the air was full of smoke and dust. Not fun to drive through since my car doesn't have air conditioning and i have to drive with the windows down in warm months, so i dodged a bullet there.
