    I won a free cake at Safeway the other day because of some promotion, it was like a giant sheet cake and I was like "Okay hello Diabeetus"

    There really is no right or wrong way to eat a cake. There are just many options.

    For instance, eating a cake nude is fine. Eating a cake nude in a Chuck E. Cheese restaurant is frowned upon, unless you are eating one of the cakes you buy there.

    Butler's sending me a headset for my 360 controller!

    That's awfully nice of him.

    Also sometimes I get sex for free but most of the time I have to pay for it.

    Remember those 'www.(product)forfree.com' websites that were really popular a while back when the 360, ps3, and wii had just come out?

    Well, I used one of 'em and got a free psp out of it.

    what the hell they actually worked?

    Yeah, they actually did. Well, at least some of them did.

    I did one for a 1gig memory stick (at the time that was pretty big), and the guy welched and stole the money he got from the referrals.

    I won £1,000 after filling out some Ipsos Mori surveys when I lived with my parents.

    My mum had been filling the same surveys out for years beforehand without getting anything except the odd sample of toilet paper / fabric softener to test, and I won the quarterly prize on my second survey,

    way back in the day, i really wanted to get vip tickets to this music festival with vanessa carlton, michelle branch, the calling, and ben folds, so i listened to this radio station non-stop for like a week and called and called and called. i also did this at work at my crap mall job, and had my coworkers use their cell phones and our work phones to make called whenever they anounced they were giving away tickets. finally, after a week of trying, we finally got through and won tickets! wooo!

    unfortunately, they weren't for that concert, they were for a john mayer concert :( john mayer ruins everything

    Also I don't think I've won anything since high school. Back then I won a ton of stuff including:
    Third Place in a male beauty contest (with 12 contestants. I already saw that joke coming)
    Prom King
    Most Likely To Succeed
    4 year running Pie Eating Champ
    Lord of the Dodgeball

    Oh way, I won best dressed at work recently. Because I wear WACKY ties.
