It is annoying that some people are being greedy and taking multiple cans at a time. I'm not bothered as I've got my voucher, but it's just that others are being deprived.0

I agree Flickering. I havent had my voucher yet but was lucky enough to win one today.. I genuinely buy this product every week so thank the OP and hope it arrives..What Would Bill Buchanan Do?0

I think it was glitching because I haven't printed any voucher today but it says I have reached my max limit. Is it because of the two I printed the previous day"Character is a journey, not a destination"--Bill Clinton
Gotta save em all!0 -

Our wedding day! 13/06/150 -
Just got one - opted for postal.
Surprised that there are some available, as when I tried at 8am this morning got ' Bad Luck try again tomorrow'.:grouphug: A smile, a 'please' and a 'thank you' cost nothing0 -

Thats because they get released at a random time of day (to make it fair for everyone) wouldn't be very fair if they released them all at midnight and the nightowls swooped on them every day0 -
They seem to be putting the 100 vouchers up at a random time everyday.
Whenever you click on the page outside of this 'open for vouchers' time you get the 'Bad Luck try again tomorrow' message. So you could go on at 12.01a.m. and it will still say try again tomorrow. You could try later on that day at 1.00p.m. (like I did) and it still says try again tomorrow. When I tried by chance at 5.20 - when I got in from work - I got the open page and could print the voucher (even though it said at 1.00p.m. to try again tomorrow).
It really should say (pre the opening time) - "Look out for our daily 100 free cans of Spam - it will be happening today", then change to the "Bad Luck try again tomorrow" message when it has given away all 100 cans that day. That way you know if that day's cans have already been won or not.
As it is, if I'd gone off the 1.00p.m. message, I'd have thought the cans were given away earlier that day (like 8.00a.m., etc) and not that they were actually still to come at 5.15ish.
Moral of the story - to win a can keep refreshing the page and see if it is open yet (and once in a while check the wall in case someone has reported it open and it has been and gone whilst you weren't looking at the comp page - because funnily enough, although I love Spam (especially on toast) - I wouldn't want to be looking at that one page all day!0 -

If you "like" the Spam UK page then they say when they're releasing the daily quota in your news feed. Of course, that depends on you using FB a lot and actually reading your news feed. They posted this message yesterday: "Can you feel the ground shake? It can mean only one thing... The cans are on the move!" I won a voucher about 15 minutes after that was posted.0
