@acolucky! A pun that spans three words and still makes sense! What creativity!
Another big week with many puns! I’m so proud of our veteran punsters! You all are consistently hilarious, and you should have plaques on your walls that say so. If you didn’t read last week’s, go read them all! It’s never past payout for a laugh attack. I’m also proud of you all for interacting so beautifully and humorfully and supportively. YOU ARE GREAT.
And what prizes do they win, you ask?
Why, as usual, all the punsters got full strength upvotes on their submissions. (WORTH $0.02! So much value! I mean, considering HF20 and last week...really, it is.)
Our category winners will each get to choose a post (of their own or someone else's) and I will give that post a fully powered upvote -let me know in a comment here- and a @tipu tip!
And they all get big, exciting SBI prizes!
(@diebitch, you’ll get your POCKET Choice award from @freedomshift!)
NEXT WEEK'S PRIZES WILL BE BIGGER!
Punday Monday has received 32 STEEM from @curie to increase our prize pool for the next several weeks! That means winners of this contest will receive not one, but 2 SBI! Rookie of the Week (so if you're new, get in here!) will win 2 SBI from @improv. POCKET Choice Award winner will still win 1 SBI from @freedomshift, but now also 2 SBI from @improv! Our overall best pun will receive 2 SBI from @improv!
Remember, our POCKET Choice Awards are the PEOPLE'S Award. That's part of why they will now be receiving an even larger award. IF YOU WANT TO VOTE, A) Check out Friday's POCKET Punday Post and B) see someone with POCKET (notably, @biophil, @paul.atreides, or myself) to get yourself some.

And, as long as I have your attention… well, this place is already saturated with people who have referral codes for various “free money” things, but here are mine!

(Hot tip, I buy BTC on pro.coinbase.com, then send it to bittrex to trade for Steem and send steem to my wallet here. It’s the most efficient way with the fewest fees I’ve found. If you’ve found better, let me know. - I learned from someone else that buying LTC and sending it to bittrex then trading it for BTC then trading that for STEEM is the least-fees way. Can someone confirm?)
