There are two promotions I know about that basically involve you not doing anything different from your usual routine and yet get entered in a draw to win a prize. One promotion is for Alfa the other is for NBK.
Alfa Gas Stations
Friday I passed by the Alfa gas station on the Gulf Road to fill up and noticed they had mascots, clowns and loud music playing. I thought it was EXTREMELY annoying since all I wanted to do was drive in, fill up gas and leave but instead I was greeted with a long queue of cars stopping to find out what all the commotion was about and parents with kids stopping so they could see the clowns. Some guy approached me to give me a flyer but since I was pissed off at the traffic they had created I didn’t even care what the promotion was about.
Yesterday on my way home from work I passed by to fill up again but this time asked about the offer and it turned out to be pretty good. Basically fill up like you regularly do and get a receipt. Every receipt has a code which you SMS to a specific number and every week you will have a chance to win a bunch of prizes including a car, iPhone and iPad’s. I thought that was pretty easy to take part in. [Details]
NBK
The second promotion is for NBK and is also very easy to participate in. All you need to do is use Watani Online and that’s it. Just by using it you’ll have a chance to win KD1,000 every week. Simple as that. [Details]
If you know of other promotions that are currently taking place and also as easy to take part in, mention it in the comments below.
Note: Full disclosure, NBK is my agencies client but I am posting about their offer on my own accord.

I think I was behind you as well. I tried to fill up gas at that Alfa station cause the one previous to that on the Gulf by second ring doesn’t have the Ultra gas (green one – highest octane petrol).
I was extremely pissed cause all I wanted to do was fill up my tank and make my way down to a friends place…but no, road rage episode 209832 had to happen.
Anyways, the deal seems pretty good but I like the NBK offer. I myself am a NBK customer. I honestly find all the banks in Kuwait relatively similar considering services (unless you talk corporate banking which I haven’t really dove into). Hope I win 1,000KD I’m always using Watani Online, could definitely use some extra cash for a holiday soon.
I really admire your disclosure mark, it’s refreshing to see
that offer with NBK sounds amazing, i dont get the disclaimer tho..
this is 100 x better

Thats it Mark.. I’m suing you for posting about NBK. You’re truing to ruin my bank.. i know.. i know thats your plan.
*trying
thats fasting effects my friend.
I already filled up my car and got that code. Sent the sms and now I’m waiting, but the problem is that I don’t know when the actual draw date is for every week 🙂 Also, the sms you send costs 250 fils 🙂
yes it does cost 250fils and their website doesn’t mention the draw dates nor the winners list anywhere !!!!
Regarding Alfa offer, if they are charging you for SMSing the code then they are using you and most likely u’ll spend money SMSing the code and get nothing instead
Some of the bangali dudes down there rip off the bottom half with the code and send it themselves…they only give you the top half with the amount..
The draw is on every Saturday during the month of Ramadaan. The draw will be done in the presence of ministry official therefore y ou can be sure that it will be honest and transparent. The winners will be announced during the Shuji show on Saturday..
Hope it clarifies. Good luck to you all.
Thanks.
