Okay, I’ve got an idea for FAD. You know how you can only claim a FAD for 19.99 or less. Well, could you not let people claim any DVD they want but if it’s over 19.99, then they could send the extra money in the post. I know it would only be a couple of pounds but there are so many good double disc DVDs that people can’t claim. Hannibal, Silence of the Lambs, Terminator 1&2, The Abyss, CastAway, Braveheart, Fight Club. There are loads of them.

I don’t know how it would work but I’m sure you can think of something. Maybe people who want a more expensive DVD could claim their prize through the post, sending the extra money and they could also send an e mail confirming it.

This would be great if it worked.

A logistical nightmare, both from our point of view, yours and data processings. It wouldn't work, and I don't really want people sending money through the post for prizes either. Sorry. The prize system is changing, so keep your eyes peeled.

But enough about your personal life... what about the changes to the prize system?

Oooo, changes.

Except a lot of complaining and sour lips from whatever the changes are.
Unless the system is "Free stuff for everyone each day", there will always be those that pout.

I can't wait for all of the Kevin the Teenagers to crawl out of their shell(suit)s again and start their damned moaning about how it's not fait because they don't get free stuff for doing very little.

Hell, I may even compose one myself!
