Crappy Prizes
Competitions, raffles, give-aways... sure the prizes look great, but don't they always turn out a bit crap should you happen to win them?
The last raffle I bought tickets for, they'd just given away the all-expenses paid weekend in New York when my number came up. Rushing up to find out what I'd won, I was a little disappointed to be handed a box of "Biscuits for Cheese". Especially as they were busy serving the cheese course (complete with biscuits) as they drew the raffle.

Mini Eggs..
My grandparents entered me into a 'mini eggs' competition without me knowing.
So one day i get a huge box in the post, only to find a massive stuffed toy of the 'mini eggs' bird.
I was quite literally too scared to sleep for about a week after that, for fear of being attacked by the bird toy (i was only 7..).
