We're simple people really and it's the little things that make us happy. 

They might be rare occurrences, but the sense of satisfaction that comes with them is just bloody fantastic. You never forget that feeling. 

These are life's little wins: the little things that happen that make your day instantly better. 

Here are some to get you started... 

1. When you find a fiver in an old coat pocket. Rarely happens, but when it does it's epic. Deserves a Facebook status.

2. You get a text message from your phone network and they want to give you free credit for some reason. Great stuff.

3. You just missed the poo on the footpath. It took a little bit of a jump but the relief you feel is just bloody fantastic.

4. You finally get to use your GroupOn/Tickles voucher and you feel like you just got the best bargain ever.

5. You discover that there's actually one more sweet/crisp/chocolate piece left in the bag. Savour it. 

6. Social life plans are cancelled but you're delighted because all you're in the mood for is the couch and a share packet of Doritos for yourself.

7. It's the day after the weekly supermarket and your shelves are choc-a-block with goodies.

8. You get to switch off your disgustingly early alarm clock because you don't have to get up early tomorrow.

9. There's free bread/sausages/chocolate samples going at the local supermarket. Bingo.

10. When you get to the bus stop just as the bus arrives. 

11. When there's milk in the fridge. Full-stop.
