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 !

That's because you're a nice person who appreciates my brilliance. Or else you had nothing better to do because you'd finished all the frustrating contest entries. I think I'll pick #1 above as we can all use the benefit of the doubt, right? And thank you for your kind words.

I have a rant !!! I signed up for that Steamy Kitchen Store newsletter,, with the promise of a $25. GC to use on purchases from the store. I know a few FFers jumped on it also and it was after I did by a week or so. I think Blondeey got her GC, ordered and got her purchase quickly. I have been waiting for the email....... and it just showed up. NOT a $25 GC !! a 10% discount. WTF ? Mad Wouldn't be bad IF I was planning on a BIG $$ purchase FrownConfused
I got that email, too. Is it possible that the $25 coupon is yet to come?

And well you should be. I mean you signed up, got the card, ordered and got what you wanted, so it's only right you should feel guilty. Send it back immediately. Or better yet, send it to me, along with everything else you've won in the last two years. I don't care if it's used or not because, like others on this forum, I'm easy. And NO, I'm not sending you the purse. shake head
Oh boy - I am not that sorry. laugh out loud I am only doing this less than a year - started with Marlboro and progressed to this. My hands always get ripped up opening those crabs. Have a heart and let me keep that. I ate all the candy and do not know if I won the Tassimo coffee pot or not or something else. Did not get the camel card yet. I used my coupons. I used all the fertilizer in the Scotts snap lock go. So it is empty now. I just hope the crab opener works. Won't know till I get some crabs later in the season. shake head

Hey, if it were short, I wouldn't have labeled it a "Rant." I've been thinking about this for a while and as I have the day off, I decided to just dump it all on what I hoped would be a sympathic audience. I don't know. Maybe they figure that only the desperate for their product people will enter on a daily basis if they make it an agonizingly slow process. But then they pick the winners randomly, so someone who only entered once then bailed could win in while others who slog through their system every day get nada. Yeah, yeah, nobody said life is fair, but still.......

I'm with you, and I dump those hard to enter ones in favor of getting through more easy ones
Rant away we like it

Okay, I fully realize that the contests are every once in a while giving us something for free, but I'm REALLY getting tired of:

1) The ones like Ghiradelli where you click enter on page one, enter your email on page two along with a saying and your favorite chocolate, then the third page, you choose a background, the fourth page you click next, and the 5th page you enter your info and the captcha. All of that could be put on ONE page, but we spend hours during the contest going through the pages and waiting for them to load.

2) The artsy-fartsy let's wait until the milk curdles while it loads contests. Sure, some graphic designers got paid big bucks to come up with them, but they are such a drag to enter.

3) The facebook ones where you wait for all the ads to load before you can click enter then wait for all the ads to load before you can actually put in any information. Also, those things crash with frightening regularity.

4) The ones that "require" codes, but if you don't have any, just tell them to send you one via email, or go click in two places and it will magically appear. Either you need a bloody code or you don't. Stop messing with me, for goodness sakes.

I wish they'd all just let me enter my email address and move on to the next one. They should make it easy to give us free stuff, not make us jump through the proverbial hoops. If I had free stuff to give away, I'd just do it. People would like me more. But nobody listens to me. You didn't even bother to read this far, did you? Thought not. Rodney Dangerfield time again.
When they're too much trouble, I don't enter them unless they excite me in some way, like OWTW4.

All right, all right. I'll let you off the hook this time. You've made it clear that I wouldn't be getting anything anyway. As for the crab cracker, I remember those troubles well. Born and raised in the Boston area -- some of my best memories are going to the North End and getting those succulent crabs. Then spent five years in San Francisco. Used to buy some crabs, some sourdough bagettes, some cheese and some white wine, then we'd all take the ferry to Sausolito and eat on the beach. Good times. In fact, they were SUCH good times, I've changed my mind and want the crab cracker after all. I'll thumb wrestle you for it. ThumbsupThumbupThumbsup
