Okay, an absolute torrent of entries for this one, it too ka good couple of hours to read them all, and I had to kill several trees for the paper to print them all out, so no moaning about the winners.

Winner of a game of his choice - mickey, for his suggestion of a 'Gameaday Receipt' idea, of which many of you suggested, but mickey got their first. Well done, mickey.

Runners up prize of a DVD of his choice goes to Aliboy, for his 'Santa' idea. It's well put and a nice festive idea, so it's definitely worthy of a prize. Congrats.

Thanks to everyone for all your entries, we read them all and found them to be very useful. Peace out, and complaints to the usual address. Cheers

Ali

I've had GAD receipts with all mine.
They all say "Congrats you won-" and "£0.00"

And now I'm going home to get my head kicked by everyone on Civilisation 3.

It's like a normal shop receipt, but with prices of £0.00 next to everything. Pretty good, we thought. It was covered by a few people (including CDouch and Mystique), but we chose mickey as he was the first to mention the words 'shop receipt', which is what caught my eye in the first place.
