Surprize Attack - A winner is you!

[Toastngravy]

Or me actually.

I enjoy bragging about anything I possibly can considering I don't get the chance too often. That being said I managed to win something from Gamestop's Surprize Attack contest. Got an email earlier in the week stating that I won one of these:

Spoiler

So bragging aside, what nifty things have you managed to win in contests (Or something from Surprize Attack if you entered).

 

[ShockValue]

I never win anything, I have horrible luck when it comes to contests, I guess that can apply to anything really.

 

[Vrex360]

I won the wooden spoon in archery class.... yeah I'm just that awesome.

 

[Raven's Nest]

I won a metal band's beanie from my local newspaper once... But I think it's because I was the only one who entered...

My luck is also lacking somewhat...

Same here.

People have run over black cats luckier than me.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

I never win anything. I have no luck when it comes to contests.

 

[9NineBreaker9]

I make it a habit of not entering contests, if only because I'm probably not going to win and just want to save myself the trouble of riding too much on thinking I will win whatever it is.

Hm...

I've won a couple of things before. Most recently, L4D2.

 

[Bofus Teefus]

I never win contests. Ever.

Jealousy. It's what I feel. how did you swing that? Hope you dig the game.

 

[bodyklok]

I don't think I've ever entered a contest, but I've won a few pounds on scratch cards, over the years.

 

[initialdelay]

I never win contests.. Damn all the lucky bastards!

 

[grimsprice]

I once won three basketball Jerseys in one day. Bottle caps on mountain dew bottles were giving them away. I got three in a row. With astronomical odds... like... turning air into gold.

 

[AWC Viper]

i won a Xbox 360 Resident Evil Edition. but i did enter like 30 times, then i sold it to a friend to buy a new graphics card.

Now all we need for you to collect your prize is your social security number, credit card number, and... oh yeah shipping address.

I bought some scratchers sat outside scratched them won something like 15 bucks, made up for all i had bought, went back inside collected spent it on another set of scratchers and won 5 bucs. So i wnet back in to collect to spend my collection on yet another scratcher, I go in and they try putting the number in 5 times it says its no working not scanning anything, they say come back later will get this straightened out i come back after 8 hours of working tell them the problem and pull the ticket out my pocket its soaking wet and tears as I take it out, the lady at the register says I can't collect because of that. Well i was gonna waste it anyways so whatever.

I once won a copy of wind waker in a spin the bottle thing going on at the mall, I did NOT use black magic to rig it I swear!

I was surprized (ha!) to not see anything saying that in the email. I assumed it would be fake or something along those lines. Everything turned out to be legit, and not requiring any important information.

Let's see here..What else have I won
Ipod in a writing contest, then multiple random codes for games. Other than that not too much...i just made myself sad.

EDIT: Quote fail. Fixed now..a few hours later..didn't look at the post after posting. Heh.

 

[smithy1234]

I won a box of 25 Tim Hortons donuts in a school raffle

 

[thiosk]

What the hell is that thing?

Can you use it as a soldier in a war40k tabletop game?

 

[Khedive Rex]

I've won a couple debate tournaments... Does that count? I haven't won any, like, name-in-jar-type contests, that I can remember.

That would be really unhelpful if you couldn't turn it off...
