Crappy Prizes
Competitions, 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.

i won first prize
in a phone-in music quiz from a crappy 'local' radio station near Sheffield about 10 years ago.
When my prize arrived i opened the envelope to discover an Elvis Costello CD single. :(
I opened the case and it was empty. :D
