Does anyone actually win???

me and you
By me and you

I went and bought my son a laptop yesterday for his birthday and was handed a bunch of tickets to win all sorts of prizes.

So as I sat there last night trying to fill them all in I thought to myself, I wonder if any expats have actually won any of the prizes being given away here or are we just wasting our time?

I have spent lots of time filling the ones in from Megamart and not won a sausage!

Would you be so kind and tell me if anyone has won anything here and what was it?

What happens if you are a non-Qatari, and win a car, you need a letter of No Objection (NOC) from your Sponsor to Register it, (and I understood you needed their approval before buying one) What happens if your sponsor will not give an Letter of No Objection (NOC) ? Do they give you cash ?

Mmmmmmm Amoud...... I had to have a think and spoke to Dora before posting as I did not want to make an ass of myself if I got it wrong hehe, But you were the only one pregnant that I remember so it had to be you so yes I do know who you are. x. I must say how lucky you are too for winning such a prize. I WILL keep filling in the coupons and I AM gonna hold out for winning my sausage ;-)

I have won a car..... Ford Edge.

Me and You.... you may have seen my car at the front gate of the Indo breakfast when you were chasing your wee one around. I got to park there because I was pleading with the guard and using the pregnant card ;)

Have you figured me out yet?

I totally believe in luck but i was highlighting "CHANCE" factor in all Promotions.

.

The more you spent, there will be more chance of winning

.

One person has almost NIL chance of winning compare to that person(s) who has dropped HUNDREDS/THOUSANDS of coupons in the same box.

.

This is the reason why people don't stick to ONE BOND / SAVING CERTIFICATE. They will keep on buying as much they can to increase the "CHANCE" of winning

I Could testify that Last year Megamart draw, one American won one Toyota, Prado landcruiser, he choose the cash out option, since he was living in one month.

When it comes to me, I'm still holding dearly to my "Sausage" it belongs to my wife. HAHAHAHA!

Life is short. Break all the rules. Forgive quickly.

Kiss slowly, love truly and never regret the things that

made you laugh.
