Thanks for post Awinnah, would love a new hybrid Honda. :)

My Priceline had all these products at almost half price - $16 instead of $30. Gotta love that! :D


Wendy - 4-5-2009 @ 05:34 AM

Did anyone see the Priceline Almay winner's name in today's Australian?


benjie - 4-5-2009 @ 05:36 AM

No I hate it when that happens :(


kismet - 4-5-2009 @ 05:39 AM

No, we need to whinge to Gaming EVERY time this happens...last time I did however they emailed me back to ask could they use my complaint directly with the company & I said "no", I'd never win if they did that" & so I have no idea if Bundaberg Rum ever awarded the ute in their gold something promo ...surely they have the powers to police this sort of thing without me!!! :mad::mad::mad:

PLUS VIC Gaming never even responds when emailed - I've emailed them probably 3 times and had no responses at all..how poor is this? The regulatory body mustn't care either so what hope have we got?


MattsMum - 4-5-2009 @ 05:50 AM

This one was being drawn by ACP magazines - perhaps some one could email ACP and Almay?
I would but I emailed ACP about the RoC/Cook Islands competition, as they didn’t publish the winners on the day in the T&C, then the names were published a couple of days later.


ReallyAddicted - 4-5-2009 @ 06:02 AM

I'll drop them a line MattsMum as you are such a trouble maker!!!!

:P:D:P

Edit: Done. Emailed Almay (Revlon) and ACP. Didn't bother with Priceline as they are notorious for not publishing winners and not responding to emails about not publishing winners ..... or maybe it's just me pmsl :D


possumhome5 - 4-5-2009 @ 07:55 AM

Good on you guys for following up. I bet we're not hte only ones wondering who the hell won this car. Although, of course, the winner has no doubt been notified - just not the rest of us!


kismet - 4-5-2009 @ 08:29 AM

I wouldn't have doubts about this one as it is big companies...but I'm always a little sceptical with some as to where the prizes "go"?????? I guess that's why it's good that we keep them on their toes as they know the public IS watching.

The other thing I find quite amazing is that the average "joe" bothers reading T & C's and does keep receipts etc. I've entered comps for years and know the rules but I just can't see most people bothering. Perhaps we're the only ones that enter!! We wish!!! ;)


blingda - 4-5-2009 @ 08:32 AM

I emailed them first thing this morning and received a reply to say that the winner had been notified. Boo Hoo. :(
Oh well, someone out there will be happy!


kismet - 4-5-2009 @ 12:00 PM

Thanks blingda - yes, the winner has been notified but they haven't published the winner as per their T & C's!!! :mad:


ReallyAddicted - 11-5-2009 @ 03:18 AM

Just received the same response. So I have replied that it's nice to know the winner has been notified, however, my question was when and where the results will be published, as they were not in The Australian on 4th May 2009 per the t&cs blah, blah

Also asked for the permit number, as it strangely wasn't in the t&cs?
