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.

When I was about 8......I played on a bandit for the first time ever - I put 10p in and got 20p back. Being 8, and this being the very early 80's I was chuffed, so not really a shit prize at the time.
I was more into video games than bandits though and still am, so having 'won' that game, I've never played on a bandit since - my work there was done :)
