I'm sure I'm not the only one who has ordered some of these and got absolute rubbish.
Just used 30 gift cards - that is 6 solid days of collecting. To get 7 Dynamites. You've got to be kidding me.... :facepalm:
Anyone had a more underwhelming return?
Why can't we get a choice of rewards??? 6 days of work to get total garbage. :straightface:
Ouch, have you seen my collection of bicycles by the train station? :)Quote:

Oh my that is why there are bicycle collections, bad gift card rewards; ouch.Quote:

I hang onto mine in hopes of being offered a tool package.
If nothing comes available and I can't accept any more gift vouchers I'll use 10 for the small mystery package.
Sometimes I get lucky but I have enough violins to start a philharmonic orchestra. 😁
And don't even get me started on those crazy frogs and topiarys!
Welcome to the game.
It's been like this since forever. Many complaints, many threads. We had the BRT, windmill, ugly boy statue as prizes since 2012 and SC just recently switched the prizes to musical instruments. :facepalm: Pure randomness and luck whether or not u get the prize u want. It's the SC way...
It's frustrating. Especially for a player like me that doesn't help strangers in the DD anymore, it can take even longer to accumulate 30 gift cards. The last time I saved that many gcs, I ended up getting deeds, which I don't need at all. I sell dozens of them every day in my RSS.Quote:

"Whatever the prize, the shorter wait alleviates some of the disappointment."
yes.
Each time buy mystery deco package (35 or 25 cards) I get silly things n sterday my hoodie got 2 dynamite frm it (Sucks bigtime). Each time i buy 10 card box i get cello, nw i hav nearly 10. Town package (5 cards) always gives paint bucket and tool package (10 cards) always gives axes. Oh! I knw reply s gonna be tat its rarandom n etc so jus saying lol
I won the Cello when the instruments were first introduced, but haven't won another instrument since. Lately, I have been receiving mallots for my tickets, although just tonight I turned in 20 tickets and got 10 diamonds, so happy with that, I guess:rolleyes:
Saved and saved up 35 gift cards for the saxophone and got one pink flower plot. Not happy, especially as it was the third time that had happened. Not so random, it seems to me.
