    I wouldn't say it was annoying, I imagine they would expect that only people who would be able to go would enter....

    Another case of people just entering competitions for the sake of it and the prizes end up being wasted. I'd say thats more annoying than anything else mentioned in this thread!

    unless i can actullay go.. I mean if they give you 12 mths to take the trip
    as by then my babies will be walking and im sure i can get a baby sitter by then;)
    But i do agree with the entering comps for the sake of it.. Now that does annoy me :mad:

    actually i find it annoying with people who jump on their high horse without knowing the facts.:mad: I only enter comps that i can use. this was not the main prize on offer but a runners up prize. and its not being wasted as i would have passed this on if i could but as i cant i have asked them to select someone else - if i did nothing that would be wasting the prize!!!!

    the tickets are for wed 27th august so next week is a bit short notice for me
    as i said before this was not the main prize but a runners up prize

  • aww well done on your win. Shame you can't go though.

    I often enter competions where I am actually hoping for a runners up prize as opposed to a main prize of a holiday. Theres a few comps where theres one main prize of a holiday I wouldnt be able to take but lots of small runners up prizes I would like. As I have a very very slight chance of winning the holiday and a greater chance of winning a runner up prize I enter.

    I try not to enter comps for tickets or holidays that I have no intention of using though but thats not to say I wont one day win something I have to pass up on.
    Thanks to all posters and contributers :beer:
