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 used to run a raffle stall at my school's fair.
And I used to deliberatly number all the good stuff with numbers higher than 600, which was what the to number of little tickets went up to. And slowly pocketed all the good stuff. (Mostly airfix)
Not bad "winnings" were they?
Plus I accidentally glued the back of my hand to my nose. Pulled and a small flap of skin came of my nose.
