Mecca and the free lightbulbs

[FreeBingoUK]

We went to Mecca in Leeds a few weeks back, and they gave everyone a box of energy-saving lightbulbs as we entered the hall.

Apparently, if you plugged them in and they turn green, you could win a TV, £10,000 or something along those lines.

We tried all our bulbs and got nothing (other than some free lightbulbs). I was wondering if anyone here had picked up a bulb and whether it turned green! lol

I'd seen they were giving away the bulbs, but I didn't realise there was a competition involved as well. What a great idea! Could be something there for Freebingo to emulate.

I got energy saving lightbulbs practically free from somerfield the other day. £1.60 for 20.They've been taken over by coop and want to get rid of their stock. Mind you if the bulbs last as long as they say half the box will still be left when I'm long gone

[trish]

Even if you don't win its great to get free energy saving bulbs - think of the poor polar bears - their houses are melting

yeah i would have been more then happy with the free light bulbs, imagine the fortune youd save on your elec bill, you can use the money on bingo

[Snappy]

What better way to spend money!

I could do with some of them, I heard that the old ones will be illegal soon - I wonder if it will be an arrestable offence?

haha, my friend has some of these lightbulbs, with mecca on the side of the box. It made me chuckle, must have some sort of business arrangement with the firm, i cant beleive those lightbulbs last 10 years, they arent all that bright are they? do they give away similar prizes on their online site? I am an affiliate but dont know much about their prizes other than cash.
