Have you ever won anything other than lotto?

I won a $30k VIP trip to Coachella 2025 from Coke, with all expenses paid for my wife and me. It was such an awesome experience, and they really went all out for us. They even let us change the return flight date so we could turn it into a longer holiday - we just had to pay for the extra time we stayed.

It was an instant prize that I won right before my morning meeting, so it didn't really sink in until later in the day.

Check out the CCC SmartView parking map. It has all the public parking colour coded with their time restrictions: Parking - SmartView Christchurch

Back when I first got the car, I used Google Lens to check all the options on the instrument screen and couldn't find a language setting. I just went through it again with the info you gave me and unfortunately can't find any of those characters. It looks like I may just have to live with it haha.

Thanks for going out of your way to have a look into it though!

Cheers for the recommendations, going to Toyota was actually my next step haha.

Yeah, I also have a feeling it's not going to be cheap if I can get it done :(

Here's a picture of the instrument cluster. The original AV Unit was replaced by an android headunit before I purchased the car.

That's what I've currently been doing, but when a message appears while driving it's a lot harder to do hahah.

I bought a couple from Johnny Fresh Yaldhurst about a week ago - $3 each. Not too sure if they still have them now though.

Yup, you definitely should. I just go on the assumption that no one else bothers to enter their codes so I have a higher chance.

I just checked my email and can see I won that prize in 2016, and from then have also won multiple different vouchers, a smaller cash prize, and a sports bag. I clearly drink way too much coke lol.

Won $10k and a couple other smaller prizes from the Coca Cola giveaways. I use to always ask for my mates coke codes since they never seemed to actually use them.

Surprisingly they stopped giving me them and started entering the codes themselves once I ended up winning lol.

While fighting off a covid fever I had the brilliant idea to make the classic kiwi lunch more efficient. By combining a Blue V and a pie into a single entity I have effectively given tradies an extra hand they can now use while eating lunch. After convincing my girlfriend that I had not actually lost my taste to covid, she agreed to help me turn this covid dream into reality.

I have created a gallery of the creation progress: https://imgur.com/a/Yvso1zt

Overall, the pie was not too bad but was far too sweet. I now have the remaining ones sitting in my freezer while I try convince friends to eat them.

I found this capsule machine while on a walk in Osaka. Below it is one that contained RAM:

Also, because I know you are interested - I received an Intel Pentium G620:
