unfortuantly it happens. They had a instant not to long ago, cant remember which one, That was giving away camera's and they had a glitch and lots of people, including myself, got the winning screen but no camera. :laughing: I knew it was a glitch when I entered so I wasnt to upset. I think the shaw instant had a glitch last year as well.

Then there is the bacardi instant.. they made good on that glitch though.

3M-I got that screen too! And the Barcadi consolation prize. This is such an interesting walk down "prizes we thought we won but didn't" memory lane :)
 
You just knew with only 25 cameras and more people posting they won one, we more than likely didn't really win!

On the Bacardi one I ended up with a 'Sex in the City' board game :laughing: I haven't ever watched that show, so I gave it to my niece who was obsessed with it :crazytongue: Of course she loved it!! Worked out okay for me.
 
I remember the Bacardi and a sweep for a belt buckle that I received a glitch from. Then a glitch on the Glad christmas one with the gingerbread man, thank goodness I really did win the glad gift basket after the glitch was over because, I really wanted that one. I think I stopped playing the MSN game until that was fixed because, it would have made me sick to see such a prize and find out it wasn't real.
 
I won a Shell fountain drink yesterday but haven't tried to use it yet. Ummmm wouldn't most Shell minimarts have a soda machine? It reminds me of the Subway one and the free chips. I agree - the companies need to send a letter to all of their franchisees letting them know about these games. Do the employees not see the signs plastered all over the windows promoting the game?

I think the frustrating thing about the Hawaiin Tropic and others that say you're a winner and then you're really not is all of the time invested in these. I realize it's all part of sweeping, but it's discouraging when you make the effort and get excited only to find out that you didn't win (when it did, in fact, say you were a winner).
