XBOX: Win an 'Eggs'Box!
Well, that took them a few brains cells to think up!
Lion Quality Eggs are running a competition to win one of 250 XBOXs!
See further defails here.
That's nice of them!...but why Eggs!...maybe the play on words is enough for them! :p

I entered too.. methinks very little chance of winning.
Although I wonder how many actually know about it and entered?
Were not only going to get more SPAM now, were going to get it scrambled, fried & boiled.
The wife was only saying yesterday that near xmas if we can find a new xbox/controller/games for £100 we can get another.

Surely you set up your own X-Box network, forget LIVE, do it yourself in your own living room - at least no more split screen multiplay.

Actually, you could well have a reasonable chance of winning. Its only a small promotion being run though Independent retailers, and so it will only attract a small number of entries.
You can also enter by Text: by sending the word Xbox to 84070 (cost 25p) or by Phone: call 0901 380 1900 (also 25p).
Is cutting edge sales promotion at its best. Bill Gates should speak to the people that pulled it together for Lion!

Sorry but you have not been successful in winning an Xbox.
Better luck next time.
Why don’t you download our funky Lion Quality eggs recipe book designed especially for those who have entered the Xbox promotion?
For best results save the file to your desktop and then double click to open
http://xbox.bta.com/eggxboxrecipes.exe
|
So what sort of competition is that? daily? weekly? or just a way of harvesting names, addresses and emails accounts?.
I wonder how many times I can enter?

Its not actually a competition. Basically its an instant win prize draw. You will be selected at random if your a winner or not. Nothing more to it than that.
You can enter as many times as you want.

I could do it with a load testing tool at work, but I'd either get sued for spamming and I would need to create multiple mail accounts. Any which way, I'd probably get caught by the people running the contest.
