Selling your soul to the devil

  • Ahh, there's something so distasteful about this sort of over-sharing.

    I entered a comp yesterday and most of the comments were fairly short, even if more than necessary. Then came a winding tale of woe! Tragedy upon tragedy all in one comment! Not to belittle any real troubles that people face, but to post all that for the chance to win a money box? Really? :/


    Out of my mind. Back in five minutes.

    Winner announced - just three words :) plus a short sentence to say she had shared :T:T:T

    I can't be the only one amused that she was just about the only one following the rules and won, despite the spiel going on in the background?

    You would think these people would read the instructions ...

  • To win a few bars of CHOCOLATE. This has actually turned my stomach.

    Me and my husband don't buy gifts for each other. We normally buy a bouquet of flowers and take them to our daughters grave, this hamper would be lovely to share with him and her sister. Liked and shared

    Because so few of them can dance.

    Keep seeing someone posting a picture of himself with a sausage when replying to twitter comps. I have no idea why. For some reason it amuses me though. Maybe i would win more often if i posed with a few rashers of bacon.

    I haven't resolved to prayer yet, but there is time :)

    I was going to start one of those 'drinking' style games where every time someone does or says something you take a gulp, so in this case every time I saw the same person comment that they have apparently *dreamed* about winning every prize that was on offer.... but I thought better of it as it was starting to become a problem! 'hic' :o;) Ah well... frankly if you dream of winning a kitchen sink sponge holder (and they did), I sincerely hope your dreams come true :D Dream big!
