 I just need some feedback on what you would say is a good prize to be offered in a free prize draw. Working for one of the pharmaceutical manufacturers we&amp;#39;ve offered a wide variety of prizes over the years and I just wondered what appeals</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 10</generator><item><title>Re: Prize draw incentives?</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/100653?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 02 Nov 2010 20:35:54 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:77e0a4c8-cd74-4bf3-b67c-a602cca08b75</guid><dc:creator>Phrin Vernon RVN</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I also agree with what everyone else has said - personal prizes are much better than practice prizes!

We love freebies and winning competitions etc, but a little frustrating when you win something for your practice and no one appreciates it that much or it just sits in a cupboard not being used&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I won a nintendo ds at bvna congress, still waiting to receive it, but that was a good gift for me, I am very happy. Vouchers that you can use on a gift experience is good too, as you get to choose what you do &lt;img src="http://www.vetnurse.co.uk/emoticons/new/Very_happy_smiley.png" alt="Big Smile" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Prize draw incentives?</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/100584?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 02 Nov 2010 08:23:55 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:985d1d8d-2165-4583-bf91-699bdedfbe1a</guid><dc:creator>Mrs Dot Dot</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;We have&amp;nbsp;just had delivered an anaesthetic machine that I won in a competition in May!!!

I personally love stuff for me that i wouldn&amp;#39;t normally be able to afford or justify the cost of. So spa breaks, shopping vouchers, ipods etc would all definatly appeal!
