With the assistance & incite of Consumerist.com you helped me save 350 dollars in early termination fees from Verizon ... you just got my vote !


BTW, you're in 6th place and I hope to see you move to # 1 !

I voted for you and also for comics curmudgeon. I heart that site.

If you win, does your budget go up? Do we get a consolation prize of certain people possibly coming back? ;)

Let's get voting, Consumerist is #2!

Aww, and I thought this was the "Bottom of Basket" awards. I always get those little BOB stickers all over my food at the grocery store.

ha! All I saw was "boobs" yes I am 5 years old! =)

Cement your Global Grip? would you become a monopoly? Would you abuse our power and tell us lies to make us buy things from your super sekkrit sponsors? Would you build a weapon of mass destruction to use against us?

Screw it I already voted. gg

1st place, but it's close. I had to BS all my other votes because I have NO IDEA what even half of them were. :D

@Hastin: That was a code at a store I worked at as a cashier. You would ask if "Someone saw BOB" to let them know someone "forgot" to put something on the belt from under the cart. Occasionally you would get a dumb person who forgot that part of training, and would be like "BOB who?", and you would have to use your eyes to point to the bottom of the cart.

Just got my vote and they're well in to first place.

I'm gonna have to ask you to just go ahead and come back later; I've got a meeting with the BOBs in a couple minutes.

*Not to be confused with a douche well

I voted! *wonders if she gets a sticker like she does when she goes to her local polling place*


Consumerist was #1 with a whopping 25% of the total votes!!

@Hastin: Better than me thinking it was the "Battery Operated Boyfriend" Awards! I need to get my mind out of the gutter.

user-pic

Consumerist still way out front at 25% when I voted 2 minutes ago! =D

user-pic

You're at 29 percent now. Either I count for a whopping 4 percent of the interweb population or lots of people are voting. Yay!

@Git Em SteveDave loves this guy-->: We had the same rule. I can honestly say I never tried it, because I felt like the biggest nerd in the world.

Anything to keep Captain Duvel Moneycat living large on Ben's salary!

user-pic

31% now! Thanks for the great work guys.

user-pic

@Meggers: But that's my stapler! I <3 that movie!

user-pic

32% thanks to the ninja. My hopes and wishes with you guys!

@Burgandy: Movie was the first thing I thought of when I saw this post too.

@InfiniTrent: I would have felt like a nerd, but products that don't get rung counted against our inventory, which affected my managers bonus, which was in direct correlation to his happiness. Plus, while some people were making an honest mistake, other people were trying to get stuff free, and I hate shoplifters.

user-pic

There's not another blog on the whole interwebs I would vote ahead of the Consumerist. I think that makes you the bestest :) You got my vote too.

user-pic

... btw 33% which seems to have you in the lead. Hellz yeah!
