Well, what an exciting week we’ve had!

The last seven days have seen two big events happen – first, the opening of the London 2012 Olympic Games and then, last night’s launch of Thirsty Thursdays in Perth!

Here at Visa, we’re also especially excited to follow our fabulous Aussie Team Visa Athlete, Lauren Mitchell, throughout the Olympics Games. We’ll be cheering her on as she competes for a medal – and you can too, via the Visa Go World facebook app. Simply logon and hit the ‘Cheer’ button to send your support to Lauren!

For those who couldn’t make it to London, we’re giving you the chance to win your own little piece of the Olympic Games. As a Worldwide Sponsor, we have 30 Visa Olympic Games themed merchandise packs to giveaway, worth over $150 each!

All you need to do for your chance to win is tell us which sport has you hooked at the London 2012 Olympic Games and why? Just email your response to and you could be one of the lucky winners.

Speaking of winners, congratulations again to all those who received a Visa Prepaid card at last night’s Visa-sponsored Thirsty Thursday’s event at the Seasons of Perth. It was a fabulous night– check out some of the pics here.

Stay tuned for more great pics and prizes following next month’s event in Brisbane!
