What do you think of the latest stunt by Oprah Winfrey? She gave every one at her show a free trip to Australia for 8 days. What a bonanza! If only I was there. So what do you think? Should she give out more freebies?

(0_0) she's rich alright. but that was a bit crazy. there are a lot of important things which could really make use her money (in case she's sick and tired of holding them). she could have sponsored the education of less fortunate students or something like that. we could use some school buildings here in my country. maybe she's done her share of helping people before, but doing more of it wouldn't hurt...

@hiccup: ooh. i did get it all wrong. but nice strategy. it's like hitting 2 birds with one stone. more audiences for Oprah and tourists for Australia. hurray~! except that Australia probably had to pay more._

Hi gracefuldove, here we don't have the airing of Oprah Winfrey Show as well. As what I know her show is quite popular and is airing in more than a hundred of countries around the world. it would be lucky for those people who could watch her show in their countries respectively. It's so fortunate that fans that watching live show on the spot having such valuable opportunity to enjoy the free trip Australia for 8 days Happy posting

Hiya graceful, Would not mind if I had the chance to go there. I have heard and seen so much about it. My Husband tells me lots about it as well so although it´s not as good as going there it´s near enough.

I think it was wonderful of her to do this. I have wanted to be a studio member of her show one day, but I would not have wanted this free trip. Right now I am scared to fly so it would not have done me any good. However I would love to be in the audience if she was paying off people's mortgages, lol.

I think it was great that she gave her audiences such wonderful gift but it actually didnt come to me as a surprise. She was doing this every so often and I dont think she will be spending a penny for this trip. I believe the trip will be paid by others, its just a promotional thing. I would love to see her give back to the less fortunate people.

I used to watch the Oprah Winfrey show before, but now it is not aired in our channels here in India so I dont know what is happening. But I have always loved her show and I felt good seeing her giving away free goodies to some of those who deserved them. Yes, it does make you feel happy in some way to see people happy.
