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.

Lastweek I won a bottle of wine in a raffle at work.
Ladies darts was on (I work in a bar) and they bring along prizes from home.
Prizes: a 4-pack of Dutch lager
a 75cl bottle of lambrini
a 75cl bottle of crap wine.. chateau de antifreeze or something..
a 25cl bottle of wine
a jigsaw puzzle
a litre bottle of Archers Aqua, peach.
I practically jumped over the bar and sprinted to grab some sort of alcoholic prize.
I got the Chateau de Antifreeze. And drank it that night!
All's well that ends well.
