Crappy PrizesCompetitions, raffles, give-aways... sure the prizes look great, but don't they always turn out a bit crap should you happen to win them?
The last raffle I bought tickets for, they'd just given away the all-expenses paid weekend in New York when my number came up. Rushing up to find out what I'd won, I was a little disappointed to be handed a box of "Biscuits for Cheese". Especially as they were busy serving the cheese course (complete with biscuits) as they drew the raffle.

Dragon boat festivalWe won.. We totally whooped ASS!!! and the entire crew won a tip to Oslo!! COOOL!!!!
We could even choose the dates!!!
So long as.... it was during the week. In September.
Food, living etc were NOT included... only the ferry-ticket was provided... BASTARDS!!
not only would it cost is upwards of 2000kr to survive in the totally EXPENSIVE Oslo for 2 days and a night, but we'd loose shed-loads on pay too!!
The entire team refused the prize, and we sent one representative to the prize givving with a lump of steel. "Here you go. Here's a car as a token of our appreciation... oh.. and you have to pay someone to make INTO the car for you"
