    Has anyone ever seen a sob story win? I don't think I have? I'd be intrigued to know!

    Of course we'd all love to win, but some of the replies I see is not far off of begging. :/



    Personally, I'm not sure if I remember seeing a sob story win - one of the peeps on here will confirm it if they've seen it happen.
    But, I have seen the same photo(s) win time and again, and sometimes people have won if they have answered a question and put a photo on with it (even though it wasn't necessary to post a photo)
    People will do anything to win if they think it gives them an advantage. Some of us are quite happy to do what's requested and leave it at that.

    BEST EVER WINS WON IN ORDER (so far) = Sony Camcorder, 32" lcd telly, micro ipod hifi, Ipod Nano, Playstation 3, Andrex Jackpup, Holiday to USA, nintendo wii, Liverpool vs Everton tickets, £250 Reward Your thirst, £500 Pepsi, p&o rotterdam trip, perfume hamper, Dr Who stamp set, steam cleaner.

    comping = nowt more thrillin' than winnin':T :j
  • I love to cheer myself up reading this thread. I just want to puke at all the stupid comments people leave on FB posts and wonder at all the birthdays, replacements for broken items etc etc. that seem to coincide with the comp.

    I hope the promoters take it all with a pinch and just laugh. What do they care if they have 900 entries and one measly prize?

    Will be posting this, keep an eye out. Will let you know if it wins.

    OMG, OMG this would be amazing to win and just at the right time since I just recently died from being hit by a meteorite, my little dog was tragically abducted by aliens and is now just a head in a jar on Alpha Centauri, and my house was eaten alive by bol weevils. My homeless family who are all suffering from wasting terminal illnesses would really be cheered up until, of course, the End of the World which will happen two weeks after the end of this competition.



    Just seen this on the LG FB page, lol. It seems to be popular as well :D

    Woe is me...

    My dalmatian has spots, my giraffe has a sore throat and my llama doesn't know if he is coming or going and worst of all my friends toad wears frilly knickers and red lipstick :rotfl:

    She's a newt! Totally different.

    Trouble is, if it does win something, I still won't know if it's random or the promoters are choosing something that catches their eye....but it would totally astonish me regardless and probably upset quite a few other entrants!

    If it's the same person, then I saw a 50th birthday comment on the Comms one and one for perfume on Friday.
    I hope we get to find out tomorrow how much 'celebrating in style' she gets to do :D
    Unless she's actually 49 tomorrow and we have a whole year of it :D
