Royal Mail loses mans passport and then gives him £3.72 worth of stamps.

Stamps For Compensation


Oliver Keynes was forced to cut short a holiday of a life time after the Royal Mail lost his passport and then gave him £3.72 worth of stamps for compensation.

Oliver sent off his passport in order to attain a visa in which he needed to start off his holiday to India and the Andaman Islands in the Indian Ocean.
He posted it by special delivery on May 7th to the travel company in which was organising his trip and documents three weeks before he was due to depart on the 21-day trip.

However the next day he received a phone call to say that they had only received an open envelope with the application inside.
After asking the Royal Mail to compensate some of the cost of rescheduling the trip, he later received 6 stamps in the post.

‘I was asking for a refund of the costs that I’ve had to spend as a result of having my passport stolen.

‘I’d also like, if not an apology, then a little bit of feeling like I’ve been treated with respect for something that was nothing to do with me.’

Christopher Walken Rex

Crowd-funding has now reached new levels of great as the recently commissioned "Christopher Walken Rex" goes into production. Achieving almost triple of the $750 goal, the creator lists all the materials that the money will help buy -
  1. PVC Piping, a cheap plastic piping that I plan on building the skeleton from
  2. Wood, with which to support the skin, and essentially be my Walken's muscle
  3. Chicken Wire, which will be laid down and stapled to the wood for me too lay the skin I will be making onto
  4. Shop Towels and Adhesive, which will be the high level paper mache and skin
  5. Paint, to make it beautiful and give it that T-rex look


"Your funds would make all the difference, allowing me to buy professional grade materials. I am used to scavenging, like when working on theatre sets with next to no budget, using wood from the street. I look forward to being able to purchase and use wood that was not previously a dresser or door."


Man gets $65,941 to help make a potato salad


KickStarter Potato Salad



Zack Danger Brown Started a Kick-starter campaign to raise money for a potato salad he was thinking about making and then received $65,941 as of July 8th.

Using the Kick-starter website, Zack, from Columbus, Ohio, used the website for donations and after more than 20,000 Facebook shares the money started rolling in.

Zack said: "Basically I'm just making potato salad. I haven't decided what kind yet."
At the first hurdle he offered to make extra potato salad if he got a good response, then promised a pizza party and finally when he reached his objective he decided that celebratory hats were in order.
Along the way Zack promised us better mayonnaise, a live stream of the cooking process and a hall to make a carb-loaded alternative to coleslaw."The internet loves potato salad! Let's show them that potato salad loves the internet!" .
"It might not be that good. It's my first potato salad."
