Halloween's Coming... Trick or Treat for the Newbies! Trivia for the Pros!

[coupontime]

So, no tricks, just some treats. If you have not received an RAOK envie from me before, here's your chance. Random coupons; mostly tearpads. If interested and have a trade rating of 20 or under, you qualify. Post in thread and PM your address.

Right now, I have 5 envies available, first come first serve, just like to continue the Thanksgiving spirits. I will update this post if there are more available, but feel free to join the trivia.

RAOK Envie:

And now the pros:

How can I forget them? I benefit so much from them. For those who got an RAOK envie from me before, feel free to join. I had a lot of fun with the trivia last time, although not too many people answered. The key is to interact, not so much to see who's smarter. Of course, try not to use the search engine.

So here's how the trivia works, each correct answer is worth 3 points unless otherwise stated. An incorrect answer that's within 10% of the correct answer's range will give you 2, all other answers will give you 1. For example, if the answer to the question is 80, 80 will give you the 3 points. However, if your answer is under or over by 10% of 80 = 8, an answer between 72 to 88 will give you 2 points. All other answers will be 1 point. Question unanswered is 0.

One submission per account, no changes can be made once submitted. First prize will be a $1.80 postage envie filled with coupons; second and third prize winners will each receive a $1.20 postage envie filled with coupons, and 2 honorary prizes will be drawn randomly from those who participated.

Cutoff for trivia is Monday, Oct 20 10:00pm EST. Winners will be announced by Wednesday, Oct 22 at the latest. Winners must come forward to claim prizes by PM'ing me with their address no later than Friday at noon.

Trivia (Total 34 Points if all Correct)

Multi-Point questions:
1) What's the biggest deal made in Oct 17's episode of Shark Tank? (looking for the % stake and the $ of investment, each answer is worth a maximum of 3 totalling to 6)
2) Where is the pit stop for Oct 17's episode of Amazing Race and who got eliminated? (Naming the correct team will give you 1 point, incorrect answer gives you 0; the correct name of the pit stop will give you 3 points, the country of the pit stop gives you 2, any other part of the world will give you 1)

The regular questions:
3) How much change do I get back from the vendor if I paid with a $50 bill and bought 3 sets of 649 numbers and 2 sets of Lotto Max numbers?
4) How much did the iPad mini 2 price drop when the iPad mini 3 was released Oct 17 in the US?
5) What's the difference between an iPad mini 2 and an iPad mini 3? (looking for that 1 difference, only a 1 point question)
6) When's the cutoff date that guarantees your Christmas card will be received on time by the recipient if you are sending it to Australia & New Zealand? (correct date is worth 3 points, within a week is worth 2 points, all other answers is worth 1)
7) Which marathon takes place this Sunday, Oct 19? (only a 1 point question)
8) Which province does not have to adjust their clocks for daylight savings? (another 1 point question)

The over and beyond questions:
9) An elm tree is being cut down between my neighbour's and my backyard. House has been about 20+ years old; the tree is way more. The tree had to be cut down because it's now dead due to disease not because of the ice storm. Any idea how much this cost (do not include taxes on this one)?
10) How many Aeroplan miles do you need for a round-trip economy class ticket from Canada to Hawaii?
11) Of course, pumpkin deserves some credit at times of Thanksgiving and Halloween. How much did the heaviest pumpkin weigh this year at Half Moon Bay?
12) Some Canadians filled up their tank at a special price when Shell celebrated its 30th anniversary by bringing gas prices back to 30 years ago, I was so jealous. What was that price?
