I WON!

[PureChaos]

Someone I know does balloon sculptures and they had 499 friends on Facebook.Thhrough someone else, I heard they put on Facebook whoever is their 500th friends will get a free balloon sculpture. I wasn't friend with them yet so I sent a friend request and became their 500th friend. This is the ballon sculpture i won:

Spoiler

I don't win stuff very much and this was one of the best things i've won in ages, it's made of 13 balloons and is great. What was the best thing you've won?

That is pretty freaking awesome, not every day I see a multi-balloon balloon animal. It's also nice to see someone who didn't add every single person they know even if they barely do on facebook, guess it's good you didn't look him up straight away. On a side note, your thread title made me lose the game.

OH GOD DAMN IT!

I once won a phone in competition and got free mug and portable cd player. I tell you, it being 1998 at the time, that made the envy of all my friends! Great times.

Well last year I won myself a new graphic card in this competition. Well ok it was second place and four other people had won it aswell (first place was a better graphic card) but none the less it's the most awesome prize I have ever recieve and I grateful for it (I using it right now).

Before that I won a box of Celebration (a box of mini chocolates) for getting the closest number to how many peas there were store in this jar in high school. I was simple using my favourite numbers 145 (the exact number was 152).

I was selected as an alternate for a "pet prize package", came with treats, two bowls, a card for a custom pet collar tag, some floor pads, a pouch to carry them, and some stain spray. I don't have a pet btw. :I

A trip to go to Philly to play magic, flights from New Zealand cost a lot.

There is a special circle of hell reserved for people like you.

OT: This is awesome, what other sort of sculptures do they do/have you seen?

From a Facebook giveaway, I got a copy of a Hellboy graphic novel and a little figurine of him.
It stands next to my other action figures, and I'm quite proud of it.

Congratulations! Feels awesome doesn't it?

Technically it's not winning, is it?, but in a giveaway for Desert Bus I won a Surlyramic necklace! I found out just last saturday and I was very pleasantly surprised. I also won an essay writing competition which was cool too. I usually never win anything academic.

OT: That's a pretty sweet balloon dog. What other kinds of sculptures does that guy do?

Are you from Britain by any chance? There's nothing more British than that

OT: That balloon animal's awesome, congratulations

I've won a couple things, I'm just a little too lucky XD

A Playstation 2 and a copy of Neopets The Darkest Fairy.

A Gamespot hotspot question contest. I got a shirt signed by the podcast members and a copy of Rachet And Clank All 4 one.

I've never won anything to remarkable. My oldest sister is the one that has won a bunch of things. She won a 2003 (in 2003 when it was new) Honda Element from a radio contest on (a new defunct station) Quad 106.5 here in California. She also won a Nintendo Wii, XBOX360 and a PS3 in a huge raffle that was being done when the new console generation came out. Needless to say, I'm jealous of her luck.

 

[Wackymon]

good job.
*golf clap*

Cool baloon dog, anyway.
I win nothing. I'm a loser.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

I've never won anything in a random chance contest. Not even when I had odds of 1/20 to get a PS3 in a draw at work...

 

[emeraldrafael]

I've won the game before.

...

hehehe. But seriously, I think the best thing I won was a month of free dairy queen.

 

[Trololo Punk]

Won my first original Xbox at a casino when i was about 6 or 7 years old with a whole bunch of games included with it. And a picture for the paper with some Microsoft guy that i can't really remember.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

I won a CD player about a decade ago.

The school held a raffle every month, and usually the prize was a £10 gift voucher, but this was the Christmas raffle.

There were many jealous peers that day.

It was a pretty damn good CD player too...
