Mine is 44:0

Just curious how everyone else did.

I realize that a lot of the attraction of entering a contest is the thrill/hope of winning, not always the prize.....but consider this, lol:
PP sent 4 cards per day x 6 days a week x 13+ months. For ease of calculation, and because I figure PP may have missed a few days here and there, let's just call it 1,000 postcards (24 a week for a year would have been 1,248 so that # may be low).
At .27 a postcard in postage that $270!
On ebay right this moment, there are YOAMD ears at Buy It Now prices of $24.95....and lots more with starting bids of around $10. And there are the lanyards on ebay for a little less than that! In fact, there are some auctions for a YOAMD lanyard, ears and pin altogether.
Even the OP who sent in 44 cards x .27 postage would have only spent a couple dollars more to have gotten the item from ebay.
I know it's not the same for some of us......we won our ears in the park and I'd not sell them for anything less than a million dollars (or a stay in the Castle, lol). But if the goal is the prize, just know it can, like everything else now a days, be had for a price.
I don't feel as bad now cause I only sent around 12 and like everyone else didn't win anything. Didn't win anything while we were at the parks either. Oh well...
and for this new promotion we won't even qualify. Again, oh well.....
You guys sound like Eeyore
