    Think companies are wising up/getting as fed up as we are - just seen one post this.

    "prize is a delicious selection of biscuits in a great Christmas keepsake tin" ... answer YES or NO to a market research question & "Inappropriate answers will be disqualified or removed".

    Most people are managing to follow the request but a few are still posting things like
    "Yummy! We all absolutely love butter biscuits! Keeping my fingers crossed!"
    & "Amazing<smile> <heart> Thanks for chance to win and Fantastic Giveaway <smiley with heart eyes>
    <smile> Xoxoxo <blowing kisses><lipstick kiss> <heart>

    "Oh my goodness,gorgeous!I'd be thrilled to win,thankyou x"
    "liked&shared x#" + a photo of themselves wearing a santa hat & tinsel.

    eta:
    "Yummy treats for Christmas xx YES"
    "Thank you for offering this fantastic prize! I have liked and shared, good luck everybody."

    "oh yes i would read the letter......wow what an amazing & generous prize..#win...loved liked dreamed and shared with my best chum...i would be over the moon & be thrilled to bits to win........... thank you for the chance...good luck all...x."

    "yes very nice love this wot a fantastic Lovely prize giveaway would love to win hoping im lucky enough fingers crossed toes crossed as well thank you for the opportunity loved liked shared"

    *roll eyes*

    eta2: this is the best fail
    "would love to enter" well maybe if you'd actually answered the question you would've got to. :rotfl:

    The Empire State one was quite entertaining. Today it really is the Empire State Building, or it looks like it to me.
    I just enter and forget...hoping to win something! :)

    I don't think her Aunt even has any reindeers. :rotfl: Santa won't come if you lie ;);)
    Not long now before all the super-duper-pooper-scooper stories/begging/pleading stuff starts. It's going to be rather epic.
    I'd better crack on with my photo experiment this year. Providing the Hound co-operates long enough for me to take the photo :rotfl:

    Is it her aunt or her aunt's reindeers that are giddy?
    fantasy sob story:
    'I'd love to win this thing so I can give it to my aunt to cheer her up as all her reindeer are unwell and feeling far too giddy to fly, but this prize will be just the thing to help them recover in time for Christmas and make sure Santa can deliver all the presents. Otherwise he may end up getting flustered at having to use an inferior team of reindeer and give good boys & girls lumps of coal by mistake or even have to cancel Christmas entirely. This makes me/sorry I mean my aunt (who's also feeling giddy), much more deserving of winning than someone whose newt has shingles. ' :whistle:

    Winner announced - just three words :) plus a short sentence to say she had shared :T:T:T
    "If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you. "

    We are such stuff
    As dreams are made on; and our little life
    Is rounded with a sleep.
