  • Wow… 3 lines, with the first line taken for "Name". $10 for each additional line. Time to get creative! Thanks. =]

  • Vic only?

    • I wouldn't imagine so… Is Herald Sun Vic only?? Edit: Ahh yes, it is. I'd say VIC only then - suggest updating title. :)

      T&Cs don't mention anything that's for sure;

      • it says when your checking out… "VIC Sun herald"

      • Hmmm, I dont think you need to LIVE in Victoria, but give it a try anyway, no harm in that.

  • Who gonna do 1 for Scott & OzB? :)

    • +2

      Damn, I wish I thought of that. Used my free one on my girlfriend :(

      • Dom, you can send another free to OzB, I accidently did it as forgot to log out.

        • Shall try :)

          Going to be great to see how many v'day messages OzBargain gets.

      Ozzie Bargain - I love you not because you're tight but because I can get on anytime I want ;)

      OzBargain
      I love u from the core of my heart, I'll always keep you near. :)

      • Harsh neg whoever that was.

  • +1

    How do we know if we're one of the first 1000?

    • Wait until Feb 21 and theyll notify you by mail.

  • +2

    Done but how do I know if I got the free tickets, it doesn't tell me? Oh and thanks SabrinaFu, my husband always says I forget him on Valentines Day so now this year I have the upper hand, lol.

    • No problem ;) and if you win, theyll notify you by mail by the 21 Feb. But i think they may be all drained now because this IS Ozbargain XD

  • +8

    sweet..

    hey why don't you stop dressin me up like a mailman and making me dance for you.

    fits.. but no mention of free tix.

    • brilliant, just brilliant. hahaha

  • Cool post!

    Perhaps we'll get a separate email about the tickets later if we were successful.

    Otherwise, maybe they have run out as there is no mention of it upon submission.

    • +1

      ahhhh, from the T&C's:

      Ticket recipients will be notified by mail by February 21

  • +1

    LOL, I can't wait to see the number of joke comments published :D

    • +3

      Too bad I'm not from VIC. If only someone would buy the Herald Sun on Valentines Day and scan a copy of the submissions.

      • The annual "Book of Love" has quite a few pages usually and looks like there will be at least 1,000 more with this offer.

      • yeah how does one go about obtaining the Herald Sun from another state? let's hope they publish it online… nah, doesn't seem so special anymore

  • As per ryang's post above from the T&Cs on the website:

    Ticket recipients will be notified by mail by February 21.

    edit: Bah ninja self correction post by jacklynhydejr.

  • +12

    I am in TAS - and we get this paper

    happy to scan it in following the big day and whack it on flickr or something

  • I think quote filled up it ask for payment when I try 2nd one.

    • +1

      maybe too long, i just did a one liner and it was fine!

      • Sorry my bad still valid, didn't know they included the name as 1 line.

    • +2

      As finance said - 3 lines for free, with the first line (name) included.

      Pretty sure it was one per user as well, so try creating a different account.

      The freebie is actually the tickets - they are for the first 1000. They offer the first 3 lines free for every one, no limit on the amount of times it can be used.

      • +3

        I'm sure there is a limit somewhere. OzBargain effect + this deal = Heraldsun transforming into the Age.

        • My vague memory recalls them offering a free service the last couple of years…. Unsure of what it was though.

        • +1

          Free death notices? ;-)

        • +1

          daydream, let me know when that comes up again! I wanna book mine early.

  • +1

    You can always get the link to the Vic herald Sun - http://www.heraldsun.com.au/ and get your loved one to open it up..

  • +8

    "EMILY SWEETIE
    I can't believe Matthew still doesn't know about us! xoxo…"

    • +6

      And for the Gold Coast Bulletin:
      "YASI
      You stole my heart… and my fence. I'll miss you!"

  • Anyone here want to swap a ticket to No Strings Attached for True Grit?

  • VIC only?? oh nooo.. looks like ill have to fly the gf to VIC!

  • When do they send the (optional) anonymous e-Card out to the recipient? Now or closer to the date (Don't want to alert them too early)?

    The paper will be a lot bigger than normal but I guess they are also hoping for a lot of extra sales as a result - Smart marketing.

    • i knoooow, i think i just stuffed up the surprise… after entering the email, it said MESSAGE SENT! but valentines is still ages away.. what the..?

    • +1

      Sent straight away - I sent them to my own email so I can forward them on anonymously when I feel like it. There should be an option to send the reminder later - or at least resend one from your confirmation page!

      Oh well put 2 ads in (haha)

    • I dont really know, but the system should be smart enough to send them only on Valentnes Day. And the Lovebook appears every year fir Valentines, and im pretty sure its a liftout.

  • +4

    Been a while since someone shouted me a free line

    • lol

  • Will this ♥ be printed in the paper?

    • I dont think they will :S. Yiu have to oay for pictures, bold headings, and "attention getters"

  • I received a "Thank you for placing your ad. Your booking number is 10xxxxxx"
    Does that mean over 10 million people already ?..!
    So much for tryin to get the movie tix ! Lol :-D

    • nooooo!!! Lol! Nah, have you noticed how numbers like that always start in thousands or five thousands or etc? Yeah, i guess its because it sounds better.

  • +1

    For what it's worth, you can also get free lines (lol@timmye) but not the tickets in some other papers.

        • :(

          … meanie!!

        • yeah i know. But hey, rules are rules. And to the mods: what road sign???!!!!

        • The link was to a mock road sign - something about a 'road' block..

        • uh, i dont think i saw a road sign. Just a lot of foreign writing, and some foreign girl….umm…….you know,….. Er……

          Is that it?

      • @ sabrinafu

        didn't you see the road sign(image that was posted)

        if you didn't, oh well

      • +1

        @ ryang

        yeah it was something about a "road" block

        @ sabrinafu

        Is that it?

        Nope

        and
        @ others

        why neg sabrinafu's comments about reporting, she even gave cheapskateasian a + for his comments
        and obviously it was for humour

        • wow, you know me! Thnx. And yeah, THANK YOU (i say sarcastically) TO THE PERSON WHO NEGGED ME ^_^

          Really???!!! Someone mustve edited the link maybe? Ah well….i minda wish the link was bak up so i could see this "road sign"

    • +6

  • +6

    SABRINAFU - are you single? taken? Will you be my Valentine? I have a group buy voucher for a restaurant we could go to. I even have some cudo vouchers for ice cream too afterwards ^^

    My dream is to have a cheapskate gf who loves bargains too… LOL!

    • +18

      It's every girl's dream to date a guy who whips out the calculator and splits everything into halves after every date including the petrol; a guy who makes you pay for half of an ice cream tub when you ate none of it; a guy only eats at eateries that accept discount coupons, and allows you to bring your own bottled water; a guy who makes you camp with him outside the Myer City store with your own sleeping bag 24 hrs before the post Christmas sale starts; a guy who takes you to Hungry Jacks on Valentine's day and make you pay for your own meal; a guy who makes you walk 10km home because he ran out of discount 4c fuel vouchers and refused to fill up his petrol tank and the car broke down on the freeway. I'm feeling fuzzy vibes. I am sure she'll say yes…. ;D

      • +2

        You know he'll ask you next now lol ;-)

        • +1

          LOL

      • +2

        Actually, he'd be the guy to make YOU camp out for the Christmas sales, whilst he went home to follow up every other bargain posted. =]

          1. cones are 50c

          2. take your lonely hearts club elsewhere

        • +1

          i think a girlfriend is the most overrated thing ever. u invest so much for so little in return.

          wow…. really?!

          ur kind made me lose my belief :)

          LOL

        • I take it that you are on very friendly terms with your hand then, old chap.

    • +1

      Check the paper and see if she sent you a free Valentine message… or not! Then you'll know ;-)

    • +3

      Er……… If you come straight to my doorstep holding a huge rose bouquet (that you got for $2 from a street seller) , riding a white horse (that you borrowed free from a friend) and a huge playter of lasagne (that was for $1 from Cudo) and icecream (for free!) ill consider it!

      LOL

      • +12
