We ran the same competition last year so let's do it again. Basically some News Ltd newspapers let you post 3 lines of free Valentine's Day love messages / classified ads for free.
Here is This Year's Deal
Put in a love note about OzBargain for your chance to win a prize.
If you have posted in the comments of the deal post, please also mention them here, so we can cross reference when/if they get published in the newspaper.

I'd name it OzBargain so it could
get me pizza half off.
OZBARGAIN FREEBIES -

TO OZBARGAIN I TOAST
It's you I value the most. When I think of how you've saved me, the amount of dollars, it's crazy. xo
OZBARGAIN - where being tight is valued
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
OZBARGAIN - daisies are cheap, stinkweed is free. So was this message!
and my last one…
Herald Sun
OZB There's no denying
you fulfil my wildest dreams. 24/7 bargains anew, oh how I love you.
sorry - couldn't resist one more
BRODEN - got lost in Pokemon, trying to catch em all (and resell them)
OzBargain
Couldn't afford love, but found 20 percent off at EBay. You introduced me. You're spesh.
Here's my second entry.
Ozbargain
You shower me with love like the
+ve votes from ebay deals.
I decided to throw in an old school reference for no particular reason other than to entertain myself.

My entry into the Courier Mail (QLD):
Ozbargain
Love, you make me save, you make me spend.
I'm no Broden but I will be in the end. xoxo

I came to save money but you got the biggest bargain when you stole my heart like a professional. No refunds.

Too expensive 2 enter 💯🆒

If our leaders decided to build an
expensive border wall, we'd find a
10 percent discount code.

OZBARGAIN
I love you more than the Sun and
the Moon, but it's $2.50 per line so
you have to imagine the rest.
(submitted to Courier Mail)
I entered but you deserve to win!!!
I like them all but this is my favourite. It's pure cheapskate.
Looks like all entries with the exact spelling of "Ozbargain" were not printed.
The only one printed was titled as "Ozb" (in the Herald Sun, btw).
So the Herald Sun has a percentage reduction for their Valentine's Day listings due to OzBargain? Winning?
Not for me! It's the first time in 5 years my ozbargain ad has not appeared!
I think this my be my first print failure too.
Dang what does this mean for the competition?
I'm just going through the papers today. There were a handful published in the Herald Sun but as others say they removed anything that spelled the site out. Well only took them 4 years to notice.
OK I think I picked up all the entries. There were 2 entries unclaimed as well (eneloops?). Moderators will judge the entries shortly.
Herald Sun, party poopers. I will never buy their paper again!
Haha, I don't anyway, but it's the principle, it's unAustralian.
Do any QLD members know if the Courier Mail published the notices submitted to them?
Yep,
OK and the winners are:
We will contact you shortly to get your details.
Congrats to the winners!
WooHoo! Thank you!
Thank you :) As I already have a shirt and bag can you please select another winner for mine?
How thoughtful, coughnachomafia
Send me a PM and we'll work something out.
thank you soooo much! sooooo excited, cant wait to wear the T shirt & make everyone jealous!
Yay! I'm thrilled. Well done to everyone else too.
Congrats to the winners!
Congrats guys
Received my t-shirt today. It's beautiful (+back print).
Thank you, everyone. I'll try to make it to the next Syd meetup.
Here's mine.
Ozbargain

without you.
