May CPGear Contest: New Subscribers

[Mike Bobbitt]

Folks,

We're going back to the original contest idea this month. The CPGear $80 gift certificate will be given to a randomly selected new subscriber this month. Last month there were only 2 new subscribers, so far there are none so anyone interesting in becoming a subscriber has a very good chance of winning the gift certificate.

For $30, you get a shirt or hat, a Milnet coin and special privileges here at Milnet.ca (see the Subscription page for full details). Plus you get a chance to win an $80 gift certificte from CPGear so you could actually turn a profit!

Cheers
Mike

Well, Mike, I'd love to be able to subscribe right now, however... Current funding is going to the following:

$30 so I can stand on stage and receive my own diploma during graduation
$40 for 2x tickets to the prom *grumbles* (might have to make a duct tape tux to save rental fees)
$60 to book a seating to have a graduation photo taken
$10 fee to rent a grad gown
$10 fee to wear the friggin rented gown
$50 for a yearbook (I've never bought a yearbook before, but seeing how this is my final year, I figured I'd pick one up)

I'm going to have to start charging an extra quarter for my dances on the street corners to afford this.  :

There is 1 thing that seem excessive in that list :

$60 to book a seating to have a graduation photo taken

Digital pictures taken by friends would be more personal, and cost less, maybe just the paper  to print them.
Then you have money for the contest !

But you have forgot a line for "not planned  expenses". There is usually one, when going to something for the first time...

Well you forgot the tux rental, corsage for your date  :, and flowers for your date  :

 

[midget-boyd91]

Well you forgot the tux rental,

Did I? 

(might have to make a duct tape tux to save rental fees)

corsage for your date  :, and flowers for your date  :

So, do you think I'd survive if I got her dandylions as to save on expenses?

[Yrys]

Well you forgot the tux rental, corsage for your date  :, and flowers for your date  :

I receive the corsage think from my date at my graduation ball. I would have find flowers excessive myself,
but nice  . You could always ask her what she think of corsage . She may thinks it's "excessive "

He will be going into a sweat if we add to much "unplanned items" to his list !

Technically speaking, I think the university line should be what you will pay by week/month. By the way, if you have a loan to reimburse, do it weekly,
or bi-weekly, if your bank will allow it, instead of monthly. You will save on interests. That is why the bank people don't tell you you could do it  !

What is a wicket cool coin????

 

[George Wallace]

What is a wicket cool coin????

A Coin that will always be cool, even should you get stuck in a sticky wicket.

Now if you have the Coin, you can get out of a sticky wicket.  If you don't have the Coin, it is your Round.  ;D

 

[Scratch_043]

Hey Mike, does the contest count for those of us who've been away from the site for a while, and are re-subscribing?? I had one of the old army.ca coins, but it got stolen, so I'm going to need a new one....... I'll be re-subscribing on payday.

 

[the 48th regulator]

Or how about a moderator, that was also, and still is a subscriber (I think I am, it is supposed to be automatic...) that has a keen eye for design, and is on here more than CSIS....

Are you per chance referring to the Sticky Wicket bar here in Victoria???

 

[Celticgirl]

OK, I'm in.  ;D

Throw in a pair of Crocs, and Im in!

Throw in a pair of Crocs, and Im in!

You will find more than a few croc(k)s here - crock of shite, crock of BS, crock of fun, crock of knowledge, crock of chaos and at times a crock of trouble.  You will find a few sharks, blades and some self-proclaimed superheroes.  Come on in, the water is not too deep and the price of admission is not too steep.
