2 Rings & 1 Necklace

So one of my mypoints.com point earning opportunities was signing up for dollars4 gold.com and getting the free g-pak to send my gold in. I got it the other day and went through my jewelry box to see what I had that I didn't wear anymore. I'm not really into yellow gold anymore, I prefer the white gold much better. I have a ring that I wore in high school that had my birthstone(opal) and then a few teeny tiny diamonds on the side. A few months after wearing it, the opal fell out and I wasn't able to wear it anymore. I decided I really didn't need to hold on to that anymore. Then I had another opal ring that my Grandma had given me. It also had some teeny tiny diamonds on the side so I decided to pry those babies outta there since they weren't going to be paying me for the precious stones. It wasn't too much effort to get the diamonds out. They looked much bigger in the ring,LOL. I saved them along with the opal from that ring. Then I had a necklace that I had gotten years ago but never wore. Like I said, I just don't like yellow gold. So I sent away my three items in hopes of getting rich. Okay, not rich but I thought I'd get a few bucks for them and since they had just been sitting in my jewelery box for years unused...what the heck!
So I got my check in the mail today and the grand total is..................... $13.75. Okay, maybe not quite what I was expecting but I don't regret it. Luckily though if I was unhappy with the amount, I would be able to contact them within 10 days of the check date and be able to get my items back. Hey, I can get quite alot for $13.75 at CVS :)
