Expendables premiere competition – winner!

Posted by & filed under Uncategorized.

Our competition to win 2 tickets to The Expendables premiere closed yesterday and we’re very pleased to announce that the winner is Robert Standen. He’ll get to hob nob with some of the stars such as Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren and Sly Stallone himself.

We all hope he’ll take the chance to ask Sly just what was going on in Over The Top.

To enter the competition people had to suggest a Buyagift gift for Arnold Schwarzenegger, whose birthday was last week. Some of the entries were so good that we just had to share them.

Robert won with:

15 minute Helicopter Flight so he can say “GET TO ZE CHOPPAH”

As we’re all big Predator fans this was a clear winner! Several people suggested something similar but Robert was the only one who put Arnie’s unmistakeable inflection to his entry.

And just because, here’s Arnie saying it:

Some of the best of the rest:

Pair of Crystal Wine Glasses in a Silk Lined Box

Nice, but would Arnie appreciate it?

Colchester

The whole town? That’s a bit much, even for the big guy. Where would he keep it?

The keys to the White House, because that’s what he really wants.

True enough but alas we don’t have any currently in stock.

Borat Mankini

Something that is once seen, can never be unseen.

I would get him a tandem skydive cos I can’t think of anything nicer than jumping out of a plane strapped to Arnie’s chest :)

Definitely no comment!

My personal favourite, though they didn’t win, was:

I would buy him the ‘Chocolate Delight Workshop for Two’, because everyone knows he says “I still love Easter, baby!”

Which deserves credit for most terrible punchline received.

Stay tuned for a huge new competition coming soon…
