I love this... so popping "my pet newt has shingles" in the bank for the next facebook competition I see. I can't abide the things. I'll do twitter comps and other comps but avoid the competitions unless its brands that I already follow (like stylecraft yarn etc)0

It's the father's day ones that have put me off entering. 'Tell us how your dad deserves to win'.............. I won't compete with the sob stories.0

Although tbh if it's a prize I really want I just use im indoors, he's a brilliant Dad of six!I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Competition Time, Site Feedback and Marriage, Relationships and Families boards.

Snap. My dad deserves nothing, I want to win it for myself. Don't think that would go down too well, especially as I have my dad on fb lol0 -
I often put something on the lines of "My Dad died 20 years ago. #WhateverHashtag Does this mean I am excluded from your competition?". (Only if it is a random draw)0

Reply - Think there's an entire thread somewhere about you saying you have 7 children in every competition posted online. If it is so tiring try closing your legs for once and get some sleep. You're not too shattered to enter hundreds of facebook comps every day.
The person who replied got slated, of course, but it did make me laugh.2018 - £562 2019 - £130 2020 - £276 2021 - £106 2022 - £1400 -

If he could have another, you could compete with the "mother of seven" :eek:

I avoid them too, as well as the Mother's Day ones. You really can't compete with some of them, and some of them border on bad taste.
You can't get away from them I'm afraid. Even the ones this year that request that you do i.e #fathersday usually have some heartbreaking tale attached. A lot of folk can't do what is being asked and leave it at that.
BTW, how long is it till the advents? Father's Day is the last bit of big sob story practice till December the 1st. (I know some people practice throughout the year)
