What's the worst prize you've ever seen?

I can't remember quite what it was but I saw a very low value prize the other day with the instructions 'Tag 20 friends' 20!! :rotfl:

My worst prize is the only thing I have ever won on twitter, it was a thong and my wife said I looked a right **** in it.

There seems to be so many very very very low value comps now, and I know its not all about the money but rafflecopters which have loads of things to do for 1 x notebook I mean really, or a FB competition to win a hairbrush, or a dog collar, or a dog whistle, there are too many to count but also some really nice prizes (I dont remember all these really low value from about 5 years back) Sorry if this sounds like a moan its not really just an observation. On the flip side it doesn't take so long to clear the board

i don't really do the rc and gleam as they are a lot of faffing for not a lot of prize in the main i think.

Not sure if this is the worst but it is certainly one of the strangest "KFC Gravy Candle" thing is I have thought of several uses already

I would LOVE that!

Some 'hand-crafted' tat on facebook that was basically a few clothes pegs with pictures stuck on them that were some kind of hangers. I didn't enter. I see people on certain FB groups listing everything they won each month, and most of it is stuff I wouldn't give houseroom to. But the more people enter for a load of old tat, the more companies will offer it.

Exactly

reusable cloth sanitary pads - often in bright colours too or with unicorns/owls on! urgh!

I remember that one. It wasn't so much how naff the prize was, it was the sob stories that were posted in trying to win it. :eek:

Btw, wasn't the other 'grail' besides the fish slice (which I have, *smug*) was the bar of Toblerone? I miss that comp too.

I have seen prizes that consist of bags of Chocolate buttons, etc. Hardly worth the time & effort to not only enter, but the promoters listing the thing as a prize.

Oh god yeah there's always sob stories!! All the comp will ask for is tag a friend or something and you'll get people in the comments saying they need the item because their sister's boyfriends' cousin's hamster has a broken leg :rotfl:

My lowest win was a packet of chocolate buttons, which cost more for the company to send them I would assume. I wouldn't say they were my worst win though, as I throughly enjoyed them. :rotfl:
