Post by: fishbrick on Monday 27 February 2012, 05:58:31 am
                                               (http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSM54_79bYGxBQ0zO0L002fAx8xJjT906MzqlStidMKku6aKavBAA)

COME ON IN AND TELL US WHAT YOU'VE WON   

Just a friendly reminder that this thread is to post about your wins or to congratulate others on their wins - keep it positive.
Negative comments (such as "didn't win anything today") will be removed to keep with the good spirit of the thread.

Also a reminder for those wishing to sell any unwanted prizes, to please use the Unwanted Prizes or Auction sections for this purpose.  Please do not list your intent to sell in this thread, as this would show Trainees what is available and would invite them to pm a seller directly.  Trainees do not have access to the Unwanted Prizes or Auction sections, and have to attain the status of Junior Member before they are allowed to trade.  This rule is to protect our trading community from members who have no established posting history in ACC.

Thank you and Good Luck to everyone for the coming week   :)

Nicely done JRN! I have a friend who's quite a whizz at radio comps, he'll be so jealous of your win! Maybe now he'll listen to me and join ACC.  :?

Well done Radio Star!

The comp required an answer to how you would spend $1000 being something you always wanted to do but never had the cash.  So I said that I'd like to turn the swimming pool into a kids' ball pit.  And that was it!

On Friday they called back to say I could be on the radio this week (no guarantees).  With once a day prize of $1000 I was expecting a nervous week ahead.  Thankfully they called at 06:40 this morning and I was on minutes later!

For about 25 words and 30 seconds of on-air I scored $1000.

This comping lark can pay well at times...

No problem.

I had to call someone from The Advertiser last week. Somehow, I scored two double passes to, "This Means War," in the same envelope. Thankfully, no one missed out - the promoter sometimes receives more tickets from the studio than they are sending out. :)

As for Fringe Shows in 2012, currently, I am up to four shows.

Boo Hoo. I really loved that club.  :( :(

I went on facebook to bear my soul to my friends and entered
the Coles MKR vote and win comp and won $50 gift card. I never ever win instant comps.
Very happy girl. :lol: :lol:

Woo Hoo!  My March is off to a brilliant start (although i only seem to win 1 thing per month), i just received a WEM that i won a $1000 Ticketek voucher.  My year is now off to a briliant start.  I also received the final confirmation phone call ysterday from That's Life that they would like to feature a story of mine as an article so that's a $250 cash also on it's way once it's printed.

Well done to all those that have won this week, and fingers crossed for those that are still waiting or stuck on the couch. :)

And JRN, i'm pretty sure you once again were the faithful poster for this comp, so thank you!  Thank you so very much!

Hi JRN - did you have any trouble with the wearebonds site? I tried numerous times last night and have attempted to upload my daughter's photo again today for the last hour but it just keeps saying, "Oops, there appears to be a problem..."

EDIT: Just did it through Internet Explorer - no joy with Firefox. Seems the site is going offline for a day or so now to deal with all the photos they've received - think I must have been one of the last for today. According to the site, many of the earlier dates are still available...

Early in the week, a great prize from a local paper (ironically not from my actual area) for a GOLD PASS to Camelot Outdoor cinema which means a double pass to all movies showing til April 20. Miss Five is sure going to need a lot of babysitters over the next couple of months.
