Of course I won. I assume they were afraid I would unleash my armada of Digimon, Pokemon, Ninja Turtles, and other factual characters. Haha, but yeah, I did win eventually, although it probably had nothing to do with me threatening them lol.

the only thing that i've ever won was some coco pops competition when i was five - i won some nickoldeon t-shirt that was about 10 sizes too big.
but my mum told me once about some woman who she worked with who won a whole bunch of stuff by wripping off the wrappers of things in her office like the nescafe coffee jar and sending them in whilst they were having all their competitions - i guess stealing stationery isn't enough...

anyone ever won a car, from those $2 donations, the ones in the shopping centre
No. Doesn't anyone actually win those? I've thought that they've 'scammed' (not really a scam, because it's for charity, or so they say) a whole of shoppers still high from endorphins as a result of their latest purchase. :p

Even if it is a scam.. scamming for charity almost seems justified lol.

Back to the topic lol, I once won this pcyc art competition.. and by win I mean came 3rd. First place was an ipod nano, but I managed to score myself a $50 voucher at centro bankstown and my art work was published in a pcyc poster.

I've won best swimmer for age group.
I've won scholarships to a private school.

I've also won one of those North Shore tutoring "best in the class" trophies. Every Asian family has one of those. :)
