Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

I searched, and didn't find this specific one, just another for WC gear - https://slickdeals.net/forums/search.php?searchid=78673201

So I'd say post, post, post!

Nothing wrong, you got it. Repped.

I posted the Rules to the Wiki in case they remove them later (when I won my iPad, they removed the rules the day the contest ended, so I couldn't look them up to be sure I wasn't dreaming).

It's nice that they have choices for the Grand Prize - I wouldn't want a Fusion, but a Fusion Hybrid, heck yeah.

ya know.. my mom use to make something similar.. she would slice a hotdog length wise.. stuff it with mashed potatoes.. drizzle a line of mustard down the middle and lay a slice of cheese on the top.. place it in the oven until the dogs were cooked.. was pretty good.

Looks good to me....links work fine.
FYI for the next one you post...you don't have to put all the rules, etc in the Wiki. Just put the highlights like: start& end date, eligibility (age etc.) links to entry & rules, and prizes in the post.
People can click on the links to enter & read the official rules.

I posted the Rules to the Wiki, because some companies pull them off their site on the last day of entry, and then you can't reference them at draw date.

I also highlighted where you don't have to play the game - Burn Notice screwed a bunch of us when they required playing every game to be entered for the car, and then Week 2 or 3 the game never loaded, still had the week before. If I had known they were going to be so amateurish, I would have used the non-game entry from the start, but the idiots didn't let you switch back and forth between entry methods.

Shes already suing!! She had a lawyer already on retainer from her last slip and fall!! I think its probably a scam. She was already looking down, how could she not see what was at her feet??? and someone just happened to be filming her?? shake head
Quote from beatle_chik :
Yeah, I seen that chick crying all over CNN yesterday.... I say just laugh it off and take your bumps.. She did a stupid thing and we all do stupid stuff sometimes. It is funny.
Not to mention the fact that if she hadn't come forward, nobody would have known who she is. The video is too grainy for anyone to realize it was her.

She's also on trial for a couple felonies (from what I've heard), so that tells what kind of person she is.

Bummer, I only got one of my Living Social orders. Oh well, already applied it to my Amazon account for future purchases.

Wasn't really expecting it to work. But they really did blow it, as there are people reporting getting dozens, while others that ordered two only got one. Seems to be totally random on how they weeded out multiples. They're getting a bad rep from that.
