I want to know what sort of stuff you've gotten for free.

AKA; won, found, been given, NOT stolen ;)

Me? Well, just today I won an iPad... And that gave me the idea for this thread :p

So, come on! What have you gotten for free that's AWESOME?

I won the entire season of Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures. That was the coolest thing I ever got for free. :D

Beyond that... I got a free stress-relieving squeeze toy once during a April Fools Day prank where they said you could buy a hoverboard. :p

Off the top of my head, $50 in the Telltale store, a ticket to see Avenged Sevenfold and Disturbed, and a little statue of Mario characters.

Me? Well, just today I won an iPad...

I hate you.

I usually get a $10,000 tax return every year... now I know its not really "Given" to me but it sure is nice... I use it to pay bills way in advance... that way I have more money in paychecks to have fun with.

Metroid Prime Trilogy. Won at a sort of small contest where I had to post why Samus is awexome.

Ended up donating the money I would have spent on that game to Child's Play Charity.

Apart from that I never seem to win anything. :(

I remember back when "Ghostbusters 2" was in cinemas, I won a T-shirt with the GB2-logo on it... but since I rarely participate in sweepstakes, it's no surprise I don't win anything.

Well, my personal favorite is the Graham Annable and Steve Purcell sketches I won from that APE contest way back, I guess just because they're unique.

I won a thousand dollars on a lottery ticket my dad gave me for Christmas once. I gave him half of it, because money was tight back then. And I won a cake in a game of musical chairs, at a restaurant, when I was a teenager. It ended up in a food fight (via my crazy older sister), and ended up getting all my friends who were present kicked out of the restaurant for a month. Other than that I usually just win little unmentionable knick-knacks. I guess not everyone can be lucky. XD

a friend of mine who also works in the film industry (but in America) gave me a Batman mask based on the one Michael Keaton wore in batman returns. It was made from the original mold out of urethane. He knows how much of a Batman nut I used to be. ;) Best random gift ever.
