Last week, I did laundry in the basement of my building. The laundry room is privately owned and the machines run using a plastic card system. You add money to your card and then the washers and dryers deduct the appropriate amount when you use them.Well, I lost a dollar trying to start the dryer. One dollar was deducted from my card but the dryer wouldn't turn on... nothing happened.
It did turn on after the second try, however. But that meant a second dollar was deducted... the first dollar was lost with nothing to show for it.
Getting a refund means contacting the owner, whose office is on the 56th floor and is only open certain hours during weekdays. It's a big hassle, so I decided to let it go. Instead, I affirmed silently, "This dollar I lost now comes back to me threefold." Then I released it to the Universe, let the matter go and did not dwell on the loss.
Well, this weekend I got that dollar back many times over.
First, yesterday when I did my taxes using one of those online services (for free, no less!), it found an extra $300 to be refunded to me that I'd probably never have figured out on my own. So instead of getting $840 back as I'd anticipated, my Federal tax refund is going to be a whopping $1,140!
Then today, while shopping at my neighborhood Jewel, the scanner overcharged me for a 20-ounce box of Russell Stover chocolates I was purchasing. They were marked on sale for $9.99, but the scanner charged me the regular $15.99 price. I pointed out the error, and they gave me the box of candy for free!
Life is good. The Universe truly is an abundant place. This Law of Attraction stuff really works!
