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.

Unlucky Dip
When she was a little girl, my GF had a go at the Lucky Dip at a Church Fete and pulled out...
An apple core.
Apparently someone thought it would be more fun to have 'joke' prizes as well as good ones. Well, if weeping children is your idea of fun... twunts.
