Damn dude, you gotta a lot of time in your hands..
I'm a lazyfuck by default, and wouldnt even think of fucking with this,
but props for bringing the lulz back!
I can just see it:

"so where's my prize..? what is it?
do I have to pay taxes on it? does it bite?
does it tell the weather? will it lead me to the yellow brick road?"

So if you're not back by, say, Monday, do we call the Air Force and say, "Yes, just thought you'd like to know: your Tubular Bills is missing"? Because I can imagine The Man showing up at my door some time later.

daayum... too late in this thread.

I used to work a scam like this for a summer job years ago.

It's high-pressure sales, and that stuff is needed for you to pay.

The card you got clearly says "PROMOTION". This is their legal disclaimer that it's not a contest and you didn't win a contest. It means you get something if you buy something.

From the prizes listed, you 'won' the adventure package, which will likely need some out of pocket expenses like airfare to a time-share.

Time-share is likely what they will push down your throat, and make any way possible for you to buy into it.

If you are not strong-willed, don't go.

If you are into sales yourself, and want to learn the art of hard-closing, go for the educational experience. It's free sales training if you look at it that way. I did that too.

Good luck, good thing you left your ccard home, and hope they don't disqualify you from their promotion if you don't carry it.

I actually went to one of these things because a couple of friends and I thought it would be something to check out and kill time. Deep in the southwest side of Chicago, in an area of abandoned warehouses and shutdown factories, lies yet another abandoned warehouse that just so happens to have brightly-lit offices inside.

The "presentation" was hilarious. They literally ASSIGNED us seats, putting us in strategic spots next to or really close to other "people" whom were clearly just employees of the company, pretending to act all interested in the product and making the entire scheme look as plausible as it could. I lolled the entire time, and continued lolling when the lady giving the speech abruptly, outta nowhere said, "OK, now its time to make a choice, if you would like to hear the rest of the secret to making unbelievable amounts of money from your own home, the $200 starter pack will start you a new life!"

I left and lolled on the L all the way back to my place.

Keep us up to date, hearing about this kinda shit always tears me up.
