HOT: FREE MONEY (Chinese ppl only) 2/1/02 only, YMMV

[ValsalvaYourHeartOut]

Alright. If you're Chinese, here's how you can get free money:
1) Call up your parents on Saturday (2/1/02) and say, "Gung Hay Fat Choy."
2) Then say, "I'm gonna swing by later and pick up my red envelope. Thanks."
3) Hang up.
4) Drive to Parent's House B&M and pick up red envelope with FREE MONEY inside.
5) If the FREE MONEY is less than what your friend got in his red envelope, attempt to PM you friend's parents.

YMMV.

It's not hot or free money. Your parents still has to shell out money to the people that gave you money.

I asked Staples if they'd pricematch... I told the CSR "Gung Hay Fat Choy" and she hung up on me.

 

[kitkit201]

[chizow]

Bleh, you can keep your red envelopes...roll 'em up real tight and stick em....

J/K...I'm just waiting for RAM prices to fall, as 2/1/03 is supposed to be RAM Price-Cut Day here in America

It most certainly ain't free. Anytime my parents give me money they remind me of how I'll have to take care of them when they're old. That's worse than those rebates that never come. :|

 

[razorstone]

LOL nice, PM to Friend's parents

I tired call crapUSA to PM the red enverlops! The guys who answer the phone must be Chinese too, cuz when I said "Gung Hay Fat Choy" he replied "Diu Lei Lo Mo"...........

Chinese 101 for newbies:
Gung Hay Fat Choy = congratulation, you're (going to be) rich
Diu Lei Lo Mo = motherf**ker
