I got an email that I was a winner and needed to respond within 48 hours. But we were out of town and when I finally read it, it was several days past the date. So I just figured I lost and it went to someone else.
When I went to pick up mail at our P.O. box several days ago, there was a notice that I had a package but it was after hours and the counter was closed. So today I finally remembered to stop by the post office to pick up whatever it was. And to my surprise, it was a package from Albertson's - the Roku Streaming Stick - plus two 6 month gift cars for Huluplus!!! Wow, was I ever surprised and thrilled! Yep, winner, winner, chicken dinner!!!
Have you heard of Roku? It streams programming to your television via WiFi. We have a Roku box connected to one of our old style TVs. It is a great way to use an older TV to stream programs like Amazon Prime, Netflix, Huluplus and many others. But it also has a ton of free programs to watch like PBS and Crackle, to name a few - way more than I could ever mention here and new things are being added all the time. Plus there are lots of games for kids to enjoy. We also have one connected to our flat screen TV that we purchased way before smart TV came out. Both of these are the Roku box style. Now, with the Roku Streaming Stick, it will be easy to take it with us on trips. And I can scarcely believe that I won this!! Thank you Albertson's and Proctor and Gamble!!!!
