Walker's Crisp competition

This sounds like my kind of competition. I am often tempted by a pack of Walkers Crisps, and reverse auctions do seem to have that element of fun, though I have never entered in one, the entry fees or call costs have always put me off.

My pal spent hundreds of pounds on multi buy packs of Walkers crisps and the whole weekend (whilst his wife and kids were away and he should have been decorating the hall!) entering bid after bid after bid in the competition.

He is a computer geek so worked out a system after analysing the previous competition results which meant he won most of the auction prizes he bid for which included spending money for the trips.

In the end he enjoyed the prizes and made enough on the surplus spending money to get all his initial crisp outlay back plus buy a new expensive pedal bike!

Spending hundreds of pounds on multi buy packs of Walkers crisps sounds a bit crazy to me. I mean everyone has their own perception on funds well spent ofc.
