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.

I think this is on topic enough.. Walkers crisps:Remember a while ago (like, 5-10 year I think) when they had the tazoos and pogs (those little things bigger than tiddly winks that you tossed at a stack and if you flipped em' you won) and there was a 'walker's crisps man' or something who wandered around places like super markets and if you were eating a packet of crisps, you won some money!
Wayhey, just so happens he was there on the corner of our street and so about 5 of us went by eating walkers crisps (I must have been about 10?) and said hello and the cheeky bastard says "No, you're not allowed any money because we're on our lunch break". So he gives us all about 50 tazoos. Whoopy...
That was really disappointing. We should get double money and a sandwich for catching him on his lunch break.
