We played a game when we were in Bali last month and tried to collect as many 'free lucky tickets' and not open them. Some 'givers' wanted the cards back when they realised we were not going to open them, but we did bring home about 9.
I have just opened one of the Peel and Win cards.
I matched three symbols (star prize symbols).
The prize is either
A. us$1000
B. Luxury holiday
C. US$250 (in discount vouchers)
D. Digital camcorder
If I had opened this in Bali, and I had attended a presentation tour at the Peninsula Beach Resort, I would have been asked to peel off the top right hand corner to reveal which of the above prizes I was lucky to win. I may have had to produce proof of age that I was over 27 and under 75. I must be married, living together or single (ok, that includes almost everyone), on holidays and employed or retired.
All the same, I won I won I won
Guess which prize?
C.....
Could I possibly suggest that if I had booked a massage at an exotic location for us$200, I could have saved us$100....
or maybe ordered us$300 worth of dinner at an exclusive restaurant and only paid us$200.
Cannot be redeemed in cash
All the same, I won, I won, I won
but I also would have wasted a day or so of my time attending the presentation, as I am not interested in timeshare.
