Free magnets

July 6th, 2008

Just for something fun, I am going to get some Project 183 magnets made.

183 of them, to be precise.

And I want you to have one. For free.

If you would like to put your name down to get one of these free magnets (and when they run out, that’s it), please leave me a comment and I will send you an email to get your mailing address.

What do I ask in return for this free magnet? All I ask is that you take a photo of wherever it is you put your magnet, and then email it to me.

I will then put all the photos together into a funky collage of magnets on-line for everyone to enjoy.

So, if you want your free Project 183 magnet, leave a comment below.

Get a free and exclusive Project 183 magnet here.

    I admire your efforts so far. You should put statue busking on your list. I have found it personally most rewarding.

    Hey! I’d love a magnet. I’m really enjoying reading about your project as well.

  7. Bruce Young Says:

    I’ve just read about the “riding the whole Melbourne rail network in one day”. I can’t help wondering just how much planning (& good luck?) that took?? I’m also curious as to what design/format you’ll come up with for the P183 magnets…
    Well, good luck with the Project, and I’ll be keen to keep up with your progress.

    Cheers,
    Bruce.

    Congratulations on the randomness! It’s great and a free trip to Sydney ‘Wooooo’! Good idea to wear that T-shirt too, that’s how I found this website! Also well done with the train station visiting and actually using the trains to do it!
    So here is my post just for a free magnet, I will take a photo of it when I get it and put it in place!
    Keep up the randomness and keep having fun!

  32. Sarah Bromfield Says:

    Hey Heath

    I would love a magnet thanks.

    I have been reading your blog with much interest for the past couple of weeks now – you’ve probably heard it all before but I really admire what your doing and I hope you keep it up once your OS. You have even inspired me to make a list of my own goals to achieve by the time I’m 30 (August 2011). Once you start thinking of things you want to achieve its hard to stop!

    Keep up the good work and if I can help out in anyway please let me know – I live in Adelaide.

    Cheers

    Sarah

    Thanks to everyone who has requested a magnet so far – the level of interest so far has been amazing.

    If you can spread the word to anyone else you think might want one, please do.

    As an update, I am going to individually number every magnet, from number 1 to number 183, so everyone’s magnet will be one of a kind.

  61. Deb Says:

    Hey Heath!

  66. Dianne Says:

    I like that this isn’t about a bucket list which is about squeezing in some things before you go. I made a list last year on a milestone birthday to do 50 things before my next birthday. It’s been fun and I can see you are having fun also. What are you going to do to top it though. ha ha

  67. Deanne Says:

    My fan could always do with another magnet to further obstruct the air it spins!

    Congrats on the good work so far.

  68. Janelle Says:

    I would love to have one of your magnets, and you have inspired me to create my own list 50 must do’s in 50 months up to my 50th!
    Maybe getting a magnet from you will be one of my goals. All the best!

  69. Marcus Says:

    Mate,
    Love following your progress, I even blogged about it -> (another one for 128)
    http://boofspace.blogspot.com/2008/06/cata-list.html
    The RSS feed works beautifully – easy to keep track of ya..
    A magnet would be sick!

  70. Dan Says:

    I am an Aussie living in Europe, and I have been following your progress ever since I read about your train challenge online. Like many others, I too was inspired to write my own list!

    Will take some funky photos of the magnet at various European locations….

  71. Crazyman Says:

    Ha. It’s funny to see you’ve got so many comments after offering free stuff. Anyway put me down for one (If your taking requests then #88). It’s probably easier if I pick it up at Andy’s farewell. See you then.

  72. Stefan Says:

    I would LOVE to help you out and recieve a magnet. I’ve got a good place I want to use it in.

  73. Juliet Says:

    Would really love a magnet to show my support to your grand project =D

  94. Sharene Says:

    Brilliant! I’m so inspired to keep chinking away at my own list, which mostly involves running goals. I’m now going to expand it to include other cool stuff. Would LOVE a magnet if there are still numbers available.

  95. tim Says:

    cool.

  96. Bel Says:

    In order to achieve my goal of supporting more silly causes, I would like a magnet please.

    Now I am off to iamgoingtorollacrossaustralia.com.au to get one of his magnets.

  98. Rob Goldsmith Says:

    Hey! I would love a fridge magnet if there are any left.
    Keep up the good work on the Goals mate, you have inspired me to do something similar (although Im already past 30…) as I just think its a great idea.
    I am personally trying to raise $1000 for Movember which supports some great causes, so if that suits Goal 89, count me in.
    Best of luck getting them all done!
    Cheers, Robert

  105. Frances Tancock Says:

    This project of yours has been such an inspiration to me and my friends! So much time, so little to do…>>hang on! Strike that! REVERSE!! =D

    This magnet of yours will be a nice addition to my collection, and at this rate, I’m going to have to buy a bigger fridge just to diplay them all!

    Cheers,
    Frances.

    P.S: I’m finding Gone with the Wind a challenge also! But keep up the good stuff!

  106. Sonia O'Dea Says:

    Hi Heath,

    I have just come across your site which is featured in this months Intrinsic newsletter.

    What a fabulous idea… and to all of those out there who are saying that some of the goals are too “easy” just don’t seem to ‘get it’.

    I wish you all the best with achieving your goals in time.

    Cheers,
    Sonia

    PS If there are any magnets left, may I have one please? Thanks

  107. Lester Kum Says:

  112. Noddy Says:

    Hi Heath,

    Recently read a project about you in our Sunday Mail. Just want to say congrats on a great project, some great goals there, 3/4 of them is what I would like to achieve, but anyway I wish you all the best in achieving them.

    Keep up your blog, I will watch closely. I assume the magnets are all gone, but your project so far has been an inspiration to makie me get off the couch and get out and see what the world has to offer. 3 years till I turn 30!

    Goodluck

  113. Noddy Says:

    PS Can I please nominate the Animal Welfare League, WSPA, RSPCA or any other charitible animal organisation for any money donated to goals not achieved or anytime you feel like making a donation.

  114. Tom Paine Says:

    I’d love a magnet please!

  115. Lucy Hill Says:

    Please can I have a magnet?! This has inspired me to get on with starting my own blog – watch this space!

    (Good luck meeting Richard Branson – keep your fingers crossed for me meeting Stephen Fry in a taxi, or for a cup of tea…. or anything!)

  116. Heath Says:

    Yes, you can definitely have a magnet. I will email you to get your address.

  117. John Says:

    I was wondering if you still have any magnets? You definitely had a large influence when I was making my list. You can check out my journey at adventurewannabe.wordpress.com. Good luck! Thank you for giving the basis for a bunch of ideas.

  118. Heath Says:

    Hi John – definitely you can have a magnet – I will send you a quick email to get your address.

    I like your website, and especially the line ‘It is never too late to be who you might have been.’ Good luck with it.

  119. Jimmy Says:

    Heath,
    I came across your site when getting ideas for my 40 by 40. I’m still making my list and have been digging your site. Anyway I would love to have a magnet if you still have them..Thanks for the cool site

  120. Heath Says:

    Sure you can Jimmy – I will email you to get your mailing address and put one in the post to you
