Anyone got any idea what those pesky little vouchers inside the DVDs are for? I now have 5 of them and assume 2 more when my next two pre-ordered dvds arrive but no idea what use they are actually going to be. I would hope they will get us some other merchandise of some sort or perhaps a special "behind the scenes" dvd would be good or even the original film (i doubt it though) as I do not have that yet!

Well I can now answer my own question. DVD 6 came with the answer. We get 2 free signed posters and an entry into a competition to win a trip to see the filming. Not bad I guess.
As I am not a huge poster fan (room full!) I may offer the posters I get as a prize here in part of the competiton. They do look quite nice, I will put a scan up of the thumbnail images we got sent soon.

I guess you poor USA people won't get this then.. arr...

You guys are lucky you even get DVDs. In Oz it's hard to get the videos......

Well i do do little things really,

1) i run techuk.com and sort of do that. Also help people with computer stuff that pay quite well
2) working for http://www.swotbooks.com while at university, a new part time job but wellish paid ($7.50/hour) for what i do
3) The odd taxying and that sort of stuff..

it all helps pay for the beer money..

MythingLink · 9th September 2000, 10:28 AM

Beer money? When I was in school all those little jobs paid for the books, tuition, supplies, food ... Geez, I miss those days. <G>

Cheers,

padders · 9th September 2000, 10:33 AM

Martouf · 10th September 2000, 06:45 AM

Heh, I'm applying for a job at a fruit and veg store!!
I do not think i will get it, but i NEED those DVDs

padders · 10th September 2000, 09:47 AM

That is good dedication. I do hope that even more prizes will be avaliable here shortly. The more people we get, the more banners that get clicked and the more money we can spend so it is going well.
