those free scratchcards you always get in magazines

you know whenever you buy a magazine and those free scratchcards drop out where "you have won a gold prize, call xxxxxxxxx to claim your prize" and it cost £4 for the call...

and you always get the sodding holiday vouchers.

does anyone know of a site where some kiddy has called the lines and found out what the stuff means for the various cards, so you can find out if 3 lions will actually win you anything, or you need the elusive 4 monkeys card?

just a thought, it would be a Good Thing.

You can post it off, but imo, its a waste of time. I think its random, ie, they just give 1000 mutha fuckers a pen, and 1 guy £500 or something. If no-one ever rang them, they would all piss off!

Thins like that you have to go to a sales talk thing, where they have you for like 5 hours, on the reasoning you are weak minded to be there, so they can sell you anything in 5 hours! and then they give you tickets for some self catering, no flights, or anything, and it will be in the middle of winter! some prize that would be!
