I don’t get it!

You know I don’t get some people!  It’s always a fun thing when you join in on contests and feels great when you win, your like really? I won!  Cool.  Your excited to see you won a prize that will be personalized just for you!  But does it happen??  NO!  Did I expect it to?  Honestly when I seen where the prize was from, NO!  I am NOT going to pout or boo who for myself here!  Wasn’t meant to be and I can accept that!  But what I don’t get is how is this fair to the person who you commited too by offering it in the first place??  This is something that perplexes the mind!

Personally I think that they should be ashamed of themselves.  You don’t make a commitment you do not plan on keeping!!  What if this was someone else, how would that make them feel? How about the person who held the contest, I mean seriously they trusted you would follow through, so if they knew how would that make them feel?? 

How does one let this person know without appearing to be causing you know….DRAMA??  It’s not about me, its not about you, its the principal of the matter!   I dunno, personally speaking it’s just not right!    So I will just blog my frustration, after all its my blog right!  But what is important is, I had fun, whether or not I actually received the prize, I had fun just the same. 

Will this stop me from entering more contests??  Well yes and no!  Yes I will enter them at sites I am a member in the spirit of fun, (even if the person who donated a prize for it doesn’t follow through),  but will I ever pay and enter a raffle or contest in the future?  Honestly?? NO! The last time I paid to enter a raffle, foul play happened for one, some who run the raffles picked prizes for themselves, which I think was pretty damn tacky!  If prizes are donated to you for your raffle, contest that others paid to enter, how fair is that to pick a prize for yourself??  I mean did you seriously pay yourself to enter?  That would just be silly!
