What's the deal?
Costa Coffee is running a competition where you can win Italian-themed prizes such as Vespas and holidays. Yet everyone’s a winner, because all you have to do is enter the comp and you can print off a voucher entitling you to a half price Frescato iced coffee.

How to grab it.
Simply enter the competition here - you have to guess how long it will take different blocks of ice with prizes in to melt. You’ll then be taken to a screen where you can print off a voucher. It has to be used by 3 Sept.

Three independent experts have estimated the melt time of each individual block of ice. The winners will be those whose melt time estimates for the individual blocks are closest to the average times from our panel of judges. In the event of a tie, the final winners will be established in an independently supervised draw. No cash or other alternative prizes are available. The promoter's decision will be final.


No purchase necessary. Only one competition entry per person. Multiple entry using the same email address will involve previous entry times being over written. Only the most recent entry times will be valid. Costa Coffee accepts no responsibility for lost, delayed or damaged entries.


Just sign up and guess how long it will take each block of ice with the prizes in to melt (clues given to the size of the block at the bottom of each prize screen) go back to the site from 4th September to see the blocks melt!!


Good Luck :D

    Tip - if you click on "That Way" and "This Way" there are some hidden ice blocks that give you a few hints and clues as to how long it will take for the ice to melt. Good luck everyone. Enjoy the half price Frescato.

    .... unless you try and use the voucher at the stall in Liverpool St station, which I tried to do tonight, and was told it was a photocopy. I asked how else one can print from internet, they rang the manager and wouldn't accept it.

    Anyone know who to complain to where I've effectively been accused of trying to get a discount under false pretences?
