20 codes entered and totally demoralised to hear that people who have won before have done it again - it's not sour grapes, just disappointment

Don't all be so nice about it! I've won one and I STILL have a bad case of sour grapes that it took me £60 worth of cans to win when some people won 4 phones with one damned pack!!! :mad:

If any of you can honestly say that you haven't had at least one moment of "that's so unfair, why do they need more than one phone when i haven't won one?" - then you are a better person than me.

I could have cheerfully shot every winner - even though part of me was happy for them

You can admit the gritted teeth and mutterings under your breath


PS - I stopped entering, so you can all breathe a big sigh of relief about that. I mean, how could anyone compete with MY winning luck??????? :rotfl:

I just said to my OH, am I a bad person? Silly I know, but I only want one 'phone and even that's not for me, I just want one for him, he deserves a treat. Oh well, I'm in the next draw, so fingers crossed.

I've made no secret of the fact that I'm well jealous of winners - especially those who win with their first code ever, or get six phones with their first six pack (Ok slight exaggeration, but you know what i mean ).

Take pity on me! I'm so bloated and have a worryingly bubbly tummy - could explode any minute i think...

I've got stacks of unopened cans but all the codes have been carefully recorded - and now all used! :eek:

What am i going to do? I will have to wait until shopping delivery on Wednesday at this rate for my next fix of a dozen cans. It's driving me mad that I've run out of codes. Feel really demoralised. Don't reckon I'll ever win at this rate. *sob*

It's good to have you around purplebutterfly - I don't think anyone went through as much as you to get one of these blooming things! have you got it yet? Is it really worth it?
You know what really p's me off more than anything? The knowledge that, even though I say this will be it, no more pepsi, I will still be trudging off to the coop tomorrow to buy more BOGOF cans. (Repeats to self, 'must have more willpower') And I'm pregnant! The way I am going baby is going to need to be hooked up to pepsi max by iv drip! (I am really sticking to the recommended caffeine guidelines but still, it can't be that good for the poor thing)
No doubt I will see you all again tomorrow - do you reckon there's a Pepsiholics Anonymous group been set up yet? Is it wrong to want to have a can with your cornflakes?

AND I feel guilty because I won on my 34th can when I know how many you bought.
I set myself a limit of £15 spends on comps like this (I only ever did the Magnum one before this and spent £14 and won £100).
However, if I hated the product I couldn't justify the spend at all.

It really is just luck of the draw with this comp.

I have said so many times - 'this is my last 6 pack'. And end up in Tescos buying 24 more cans. I really have no will power. This must be what it's like to try and give up smoking :rotfl:

Nooooo! That's the problem then. We don't have light pulls in our house. We have switches on the outside of the bathrooms. Perhaps i could get a hammer and bash a Pepsi can into a switchplate?
The bashing part may be theraputic...
