Default We Played “Simon-Says” w/5 Year Old After LOTTO Tipping Her Mom

We Played “Simon-Says” w/5 Year Old After LOTTO Tipping Her Mom.

Winter time. Heavy coat, Knit cap, boots.

I'm in the food store.

Pushing my cart.

Down the line of cashiers.

See a Mother/Daughter team. Mom is unloading groceries.

Daughter is sitting in the cart.

Chewing on her green winter coat.

Not the sleeve (as you'd expect) This little blonde girl was chewing on the shoulder of her coat.

So.

I immediately walked up in front of the little girl. Pulled my coat over to my mouth and started BITING MY COAT TOO.

The Result?

The little Blonde girl's eyes got REAL BIG.

She started to laugh and giggle.

Louder and louder.

So loud that her - very attractive mom - looked up from unloading the cart onto the belt at the Cash Register.

Mom Caught me in a basilisk-like stare.

Thinking Fast I asked, “If I Thank Reward You With This LOTTO TICKET - Will You Let me Keep Playing “Simon Says”
with your daughter?"

Mom Studied me.

Decided I was Harmless. SNATCHED the Lotto ticket out of my hand.
Said, "Go ahead. Knock yourself out."

Totally ignoring me. She went back to unloading groceries.

The little 5 yr Old Blonde stuck one arm straight up.

Stuck a foot out.

I played along. She and I were having a BIG TIME.

Suddenly...

The 5 year old strikes a Modeling pose.

Hand behind her head, chest out, other hand on her hip.

I got her Mom's attention. Said, "Where did she learn THAT?"

Mom started laughing.

Glenn

Default Gary Coffee-Coupon Flirt Tipped 3 Ladies

My Business Depends on The Post Office - So I Coffee-Coupon Flirt Tipped 3 Ladies.


Post Office Flirt Testimonial -

Dear Glen,

Its been awhile since we talked. I've moved.

Had to set up a postal mail account for my business.

Thought I'd use God-Like NLP.

...So I set up the account. Then on my second visit I brought Four $5 gift Certificates from the coffee shop two doors down.

Gave one to each of the Girls working there...

Said, "it's nice to know I will be working with frienldy helpful people..."

Now I get special treatment every time I go in, they always walk me into the back to ship my packages.

Everyone else waits in line...

I get calls at home when packagaes arrive...

I asked, "Do you do this for everyone?"

Answer "only our special clients"...

I asked How many special clients...

BIG grin answer:

"Just one so far!”

Wow... I wonder if this stuff works hahaha..

Warmly, Gary

Your Deep undercover "Big Red Nose Club member"

Default Pretty BarMaid - Sports-Bar-Flirt-Tip-Testimonial

Pretty BarMaid - Sports-Bar-Flirt-Tip-Testimonial:


At Lunch During a Seminar, At a Sports Bar, The Pretty BarMaid Built a MOUNTAIN


During a lunch break I went to lunch with two other attendees.

Empty Sports Bar.

The BarMaid was doing double duty. Tending bar And Doing the Waitress Chores.

I Smiled at her and Handed Her a 1.00 Bill every time she came to the table.

The menu - A 1.00

Ice Water - 1.00

An Extra Napkin - 1.00 bill

The older guys with me were not p*aying any attention. Until one man noticed the food and plates and Glasses Pilled 2 and 3 high around me.

He exclaimed, “What did you do to the Barmaid?”

I tried to explain I just smiled at her. And gave her a tip. But they didn’t believe me.

I was sitting between two men - much r*icher than me. But I Got The VIP Treatment. They got ignored.

Thanks,

Alan

Default Mike Lotto Tips a Top Poker Player to Learn his “Tells”

Mike Lotto Tips a Top Poker Player to Learn his “Tells”


Hey Glenn,

Very exciting news. After Using Lotto Tipping to Meet the Player (pointed out as the one to beat) I Just finished my first tournament in no limit Texas Hold'em.

Took first place, won over 1000.00

Absolutely annihilated the defending champ who won four tournaments in a row. This particular tournament is held once a month at a casino that's about a two hour drive from my house.

Also, bought a book on poker strategy written by a pro with
40 years of poker experience. He started off his professional career playing back-alley games in Tennessee.

The bouncers in most of the joints he started playing in carried machine guns to make sure that there was no "funny business."

He also logged over a year in county jails because when he started, gambling was illegal in the areas he played. His book is amazing and outlines all anyone could ever hope to know about strategy and odds.

The only thing he doesn't treat in depth is recognizing and inducing tells.

Anyway, my winnings are up to over $2000 and growing. I'm going to start competing in tournaments regularly for extra cash.

Thanks for all of your help.

Mike

Default At a 5 & Diner In Vegas Kent Tipped 2.00 Bills

At a 5 & Diner In Vegas Kent Tipped 2.00 Bills


Hi Glenn - I adapted the $1 bill strategy into the
$2 bill strategy (hey-I'm in Las Vegas, baby!) Makes
it more than twice as effective, for two reasons.

First, anyone can give a $1 bill but it takes extra
effort to get $2 bills from the bank, so right off
the bat it's more impressive.

Second, a $2 bill is intrinsically worth twice
what a $1 bill is, but the impact is greater-at
least in my tests.

Went to a 5-and-Diner for Sunday brunch. These
little cafes are usually jammed on Sundays, and
the servers are very busy and hardly have time to
say hello. They are friendly but rushed.

(Case in point: Last week my server gave me a
second eggs benedict order, thinking she had not
given me the first, and apologized for the
mistake.)

Okay, so THIS week, I walked in and asked for a
4-top booth just for me. Although she could have
objected, she didn't and sat me down in a power
booth. I thanked her then pulled out my checkbook
of $2 bills and peeled one off.

(I bought 50 $2s and had them made into a pad with
a card-stock back and bought a nice checkbook cover
to put them in. It's a nice touch.)

My server was surprised yet pleased. She returned
moments later to take my order. She suggested I
have gravy with my biscuits, which turned out to
be a tasty complement to my ham and cheese omelet.

She returned with more tea promptly when my glass
was getting low, and I pealed off another two-spot.

She returned two more times to make sure I was okay,
but I didn't tip her those times.

Then, after I was finished, she came back and
asked me if I wanted anything else. It told her I
didn't want any more food, and asked her if she
minded if I stayed at the table for a while to
read.

When she said it was okay, I peeled off another
two-spot and said with a big smile, "Good answer!"

Then she added, "In fact, you can sit here as long
as you want." This, in a crowded restaurant with
otherwise high table turnover.

THEN, after about 20 minutes, she came back and
said her shift was ending and that another server
would be taking over. I gave her money for the
check plus another two bucks and told her I, too,
was about to leave.

She then asked me if I wanted some iced tea-TO GO!
-at no additional charge, of course.

So, for an extra four bucks (I would have tipped
her four anyway) I got treated like a king!
Another way to look at it is, I rented a nice
table with a nice view for an hour for only four
bucks extra.

I worked the same scheme at an upscale bar and got
served immediately while others watched in awe.

Best,
Kent

Default Bill Sells Cable TV Dr-To-Dr w/Lotto Tickets

Bill Sells Cable TV Dr-To-Dr w/Lotto Tickets

Hey Glenn,

You know, I think I can get used to this kind of stuff.

I was going over my notes from our conversation to pick something out that I could use right away and see how things go.

Well, I really liked the use of a camera to break the ice while selling Cable TV door to door, BUT I changed it around a bit.

I went to the door of a home I knew recently sold and the homeowners were home, and when the lady answered the door I introduced myself and. . . er . . . I think it would be best if I just wrote it out as if you were there.

HO = Home Owner
ME = well, me of course

HO - Answers door

ME - Hi, I'm Bill with CableTwo and this may sound like an ODD request but would you mind if I —Bribed you with a Lotto Ticket— and snapped your picture? You see, my BOSS doesn’t think I'm actually out here talking to people, so I thought this would be the best way to PROVE I am.

HO - giggles, and says "WHy not.”

ME - Aim, focus and SNAP, picture is taken, would you like to see how it turned out?

HO - giggles some more, "Oh I don't know, well OK"

ME - I show her the pic, and tell her if this doesn't convince my BOSS then I don't know what will.

HO - Why do you have to PROVE you are talking to people

ME - I'm the manager of this SUB for CableOne, and my job is to make sure I let every home owner know about our "NEW HomeOwner specials.”

HO - interrupts me to ask what kind of specials we have.

We talk back and forth, and I end up writing up my first sale.

WOW, I thought how could this get any easier

So I made sure to look for the homes where people were home, and when the day was over I had made EIGHT SALES!!!

That is more than half my quota for an entire week.

Thy funniest one was one lady who said she HATES cameras and doesn’t like her picture to be taken, and I SAYS, "Then put your hand in front of your face or turn away, all I need to do is show my BOSS that I was here talking with YOU, and I will even show you the pic so you can see that you can't see WHO you are.

BINGO, my IN for another SALE!

Glenn, THANK YOU, thank you VERY much, this is actually FUN now ;-)

Feel free to use this anyway you choose.

Best . . . Bill
