Worst prize

What is the WORST prize you have noticed while comping over the last day or two?

I have just seen a Twitter comp for 1 bag of crisps :eek:

Why even bother the P&P will cost more than the prize is worth.

What a waste of time :(

    There was a comp for £250 to spend on a cycle website, but the cheapest bike on there was £460. So a discount rather than a prize IMO. That was pretty bad.
    Thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions boards. You all rock!
