I noticed anything over a £2.10 entry is not wanted but this competition is a £5 entry which goes to the Brightest Star, a charity to support bereaved parents after child loss, also counselling for sibling's. If it's…
Where do you find your competitions?
Hi all, Personally I sort my forum by end date and work through from company closing tomorrow and repeat that most days. What do you do? I used to use the prize finder too. Do you use any other websites? Thought it would be nice to share some tips
'Family ticket' prize
Hello I have won an overnight stay in London, part of which is a family ticket to an exhibition. It states that the family ticket is for '2 adults and 2 children'.

Does anyone win the magazines like take a break these days?

Just to make you aware Talksport are calling people who entered their Barcelona competition to see if they are willing for a call back for the breakfast show. If they are called they have 45 seconds to answer as many questions they can on Spanish football.

Discount stores - so much more generous!?
