After this situation, my life split into “before” and “after.”

The most frugal person in the world was my granddad. After he d!ed, he gave me a $30 gift card. I decided to use it rather than give it away for whatever reason. My life had periods before and after that incident. The checker’s face went white when I handed her the card. Cashier: Where did you acquire that? That’s not feasible.

Me: Well, It belonged to my grandfather. “STOP EVERYONE!” said the cashier. Our store has been holding a secret contest for ten years, and the winner is IN FRONT OF US! Telling the customer that the gift card was a unique promotional item with a million-dollar prize that had been unused for years made the cashier quite happy. The store manager walked over to confirm what I already knew to be true, and I stood there in disbelief. My grandpa’s “stingy” present became a fortune that abruptly altered my entire life and my prospects. The story’s lesson is that being a cheapskate implies you like to maximize every dollar. However, there are occasions when it feels good to treat the people you care about with your hard-earned cash. Spending a lot of money is not necessary. Giving them a treat or the lovely present they’ve always desired is a great way to let them know you care.

First public statement from Prince William on his wife and father, King Charles

With King Charles receiving weekly treatments for his cancer in London, his son Prince William has taken upon himself to step in for his father and the crown and fulfill the royal duties.

What’s most, William is also busy being there for his wife who’s currently recuperating from her planned abdominal surgery and taking care of the children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

Recently, William attended an event to raise money for London’s Air Ambulance. There, he spoke of his wife and father and thanked everyone for “the kind messages of support for Catherine and for my father, especially in recent days.”

Among the rest of the attendees, there was actor Tom Cruise whom the Prince joked with saying he shouldn’t “borrow” any of the helicopters.

“If you wouldn’t mind not borrowing either of the new helicopters for the next Mission Impossible, it would be appreciated,” the Prince said.

“We have all seen on our screens that, how can I put it, you seem to have a different take on normal wear and tear to the rest of us,” he stated.

Speaking of the importance of the event, William said, “It’s fair to say the past few weeks have had a rather ‘medical’ focus. So I thought I’d come to an air ambulance function to get away from it all!

“But, seriously, we gather tonight to help as many as people as possible benefit from top class care in the silhouette of London Air Ambulance’s flying lifelines. As a former pilot for East Anglia Air Ambulance, I know just how vital the work of air ambulance teams across the country is, and the truly life-saving difference it can make to deliver urgent medical care wherever injury strikes can make.

“Here in London, the current aircraft have served magnificently. But our capital city needs a new fleet. And we are Up Against Time. The clue really is in the Appeal’s name. By September, we need the two new red birds – decked with the latest kit such as night vision – in our skies.

The prince was also seen talking with Ellen Convery, who used to be known as Ellen White and played more than 100 games for the England women’s football team.

While receiving treatment, King Charles will not be attending public events. Between treatments, he’s spending time at the Sandringham estate.

Details of the type of cancer he has been diagnosed with have not been disclosed with the public.
