16 Times People Got More Than What They Asked For But Absolutely Loved It Anyway
Not everyone gets lucky when they receive more than they asked for, but these people hit the jackpot.
Ordering clothes online and receiving a bunch of freebies, or dining at a restaurant and getting a dish much larger than expected, is one of the best feelings in the world. You're getting more than your money's worth, and that is a significant cause for celebration!
In this day and age, such occurrences are becoming increasingly rare. It's a one-time thing that many of us only see on the internet.
When we do receive more than we asked for in the best way, it feels like a miracle. It also helps us believe that our luck hasn't fully abandoned us yet, despite all the things we've done in our lives to sabotage it.
We think it's because the world has become obsessed with only giving us the exact worth of our money or efforts, or even less. While that's not necessarily a bad thing, it would be nice to receive a little extra now and then.
These individuals seem to have won the lottery in those moments. From giant restaurant orders and amazing thrift finds to discovering antique doors and witnessing rare phenomena in the sky, their luck has truly been on their side at the best times.

Seeing all these things that these people received kind of makes us jealous. Why can't everybody get Halloween pizzas or win Galaxy tablets as well?
Even just receiving any of those things would already make us extremely happy. It makes us think that we might just have really bad luck or that our luck simply hates us.
