My local servo is a Shell (Coles Express), and since I like to use 98RON fuel in my car, I tend to buy a lot of V-Power from them.
Now for those who don't know, Shell have this little "V-Power Club" online with discount offers for various places and competitions and stuff. There was a competition going on there where if you bought V-Power, got a receipt and punched in your receipt number you went in the draw for a $100 Coles Express gift card. Well, postie came with a registered letter for me today, I'm thinking WTF I haven't ordered anything that comes registered, opened it, and it was a $100 Gift Card for me!!!!!!! Was a nice surprise, I'll get a full tank out of it, plus depending on the price maybe another third of a tank after that. I was just thinking earlier that I'll need to fill up the tank again in the next day or so, looks like I get it for free now!!!

I've got just under a quarter of a tank, probably going to use it tomorrow when the fuel's a bit cheaper, want to try maximise the number of litres I can get for their money ;)

ALL people who entered (whether they won or not) are also in the draw to win one of 6 $1000 fuel cards, I'm thinking my luck isn't that great but it would be an awesome prize, would last me a good couple of months I reckon!
