    Hi Guys,
    <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p> </o:p>
    Just found a cool comp by Argos i think, otherwise it is some giant jar company, they have filled a giant jar with a bucket (or a million bucket loads) of stuff, you can watch a video of them doing it in “behind the scenes” on the site, main reason I’m telling you is that it’s free to enter and if you win then you get to win the lot or is equivalent worth of 10 grand – Nice one – Xmas sorted for me! Prob not worth trying as I have prob already guessed it – Get in!!
    Is here if you think your better than me www.giantjar.co.uk
    :money: :j
  • Nice one!
    Do you win the bloke in the jar as well?

  • i guessed 287
    said its a good guess!
    is that what every1 is getting?
    many thanks OP
  • I went conservative and guessed 280, my formula was when the jar was approx 1/2 full they show the counter at 134 , so i reckon double that and add a few extra for small items....fingers crossed.

    How long do you think it will take to flog most of the stuff on Ebay?
