2 Balcony level tickets to Riverdance - $70
Ticketmaster service and "convenience" charges for 2 balcony level tickets to Riverdance - $18.75
Dinner at Red Robin, totally blowing away any hopes of a diet for an evening - $32.50
Having the bright idea to go to the Box Office when arriving at Landmark theater at 7:00 and asking 'Hey...can we upgrade these tickets?' - $30
Discovering the upgraded tickets were front row center of the orchestra (as in Row 1) - Priceless
(Oh, incidentally, I didn't use a Mastercard for *any* of that...Visa Debit cards, they're everywhere you want to be :) )
I just have to wonder why noone else had already bought them. Perhaps that's my karmic payoff for being nice to the doggies and kitties...or actually having backbone...
Or, perhaps I was just lucky. Either way, see Rhiannon's entry for more details.
