Sticks and stones

chrisYou may have noticed that we are asking you to “vouch for us” on our Facebook ads. We realise this is a cheeky ask, but there’s good reason.

When I had the idea for a free daily lottery funded by ads, I never realised quite how hard it would be to convince people that it’s real. Here’s a selection of some of the comments we’ve had on our Facebook ads over the last few days

There’s no such a thing as a free lunch
SCAM
junk mail here i come 😂😂
Me still waiting doh
Bull sh*t
Most likely a Scam
Nothing is free
U don’t have anything for free..
???
Con

I’m not blaming anyone for coming to these conclusions. The internet is a murky place, and we’ve been told for years that there’s no such thing as a free lunch dinner. In fact, I would strongly advise to be very wary of anything that claims to be giving away free money.

We’re actually surrounded by ad-funded businesses (well, maybe a little fewer recently…), but for us the prizes are one of our costs, just like printing is for a free newspaper. Hopefully, if you’re reading this, you’ll already know we’re legit, and in fact, have given away over £1.2million since we launched. That’s a LOT of Paypal payments.

If you want to help by leaving a positive comment, liking, or sharing our ads, you can find the one for your region here:

East Anglia (coming soon)
East Midlands
Greater London
Northern Ireland
North East England
North West England
Scotland
South East England

Yorkshire and Humberside

And if not… At least feel free to giggle.

Thanks in advance!
