Win a pair of Oakley sunglasses in conjunction with Eyewearoutlet:

http://competwition.com/oakley-sunglasses/

Not sure about the exact date as they do a stupid count down, sorry!

The site will make you follow them and tweet out the competition on your behalf. If you are worried about them accessing your account, revoke access afterwards here:

    I've worked it out as 6pm on the 16th July :D
    Also, you have in the description "Win an ipad 2...." but that's not for this comp, it's just Oakley Sunglasses :)
    Thanks to all posters :A

    ..they are asking for a full access here - including posting tweets on your behalf - bit too much if you ask me.

    Hello there james_db, jaibaby and beelzebomb,

    Great to hear you talking about Competwition.com. My name's Fi Dunphy and I work for Branded3, the proud creators of Competwition.com.

    Here's how it works:
    1. You visit competwition.com and decide to try your luck and enter (you must have a Twitter account to do so);
    2. Once you enter using your Twitter account, a Tweet is automatically sent to YOUR Twitter followers telling them what you've just entered;
    3. Your followers then (hopefully) decide to enter the competwition, and then the cycle begins again, and so on.

    We make no money from Competwition; our crack team of brainy web developers set up the site as a bit of a social media experiment, you see. Quite simply, it helps those brands who give away free stuff to build their social media following, and it helps you, the general public, win free stuff. That's it.

    And james_db is absolutely right - if you enter a competwition at competwition.com and decide for any reason that you'd no longer like to follow @Competwition on Twitter.com, then just click 'unfollow'.

    ... But why would you want to do that when we've got so much top notch gear to give away, eh?

    Anyway: make sure you keep an eye out over the coming months, because we only relaunched Competwition earlier this month and we're currently in the process of growing it with a view to giving away more, better and bigger prizes! Hurrah!

    I hope you're reassured to go and enter competwitions to your hearts' content now - good luck and God's speed!

    Best,

    Fi Dunphy
    Branded3

    Thanks, have fixed it now. Was adding a couple of comps from the same site. Be careful with copy and paste *smacks self* :)
