Thought I'd Won..!

Just had a call from a number I didn't reconise, got a bit excited as you do, answered and a guy said 'Hi if you remember you entered a competition with (cant remember) for free advertising for your company.. at this point I am getting very excited thinking of all the brownie points I would earn at work if I won this one!, Then he said 'Well this is UPS we sponsered the competition and wondered if you sent any parcels out.... :cool:

So from excitement to deflation one in one second lmao!! I do wish these people wouldn't do this to us lol!!
