I just got a golden ticket too and found out I am a loser.

What bright spark in the Lush marketing dept thought it was a good idea to let 49,500 customers so excited that they thought they had won a prize, then had to log on to find out they were a loser?

it's Willy Wonky if you ask me. Why not just print the number of tickets that win a prize like every other competition on the planet?

Was the idea pitched something like this?

Let's print 50,000 golden tickets, so some customers might win a prize. About 500 of you, which is a . If you are lucky. Maybe. Like a big prize, you know huge. Not that big, but $500 is a big prize right? That will cost about $150 worth of soap to make, which is actually less than the cost of printing 50,000 golden tickets and the labor of sticking them in random boxes by hand.

I like that we only have 1% of winners, and 99% who think they have won are really losers. It is like the Occupy Wall Street banners right? I love being topical and sort of generous. Lets do it.


At least we could have won a 10 discount off our next purchase, instead of which all we got was disappointment. Not the best feeling for your best customers Lush You think we are all that excited over a piece of worthless shiny paper?

wow, sorry to hear that. I didn't think of it as so many non-winning tickets.
