    Yeah entered and it said I'd won an MP4 player. I doubt it'll ever arrive though!
    Interesting concept though, £8million development and they're selling 200,000 tickets to win the whole development. Get a free entry if you purchase an MP4 player (at £100!) and they're giving £3 to Great Ormond Street for each entry.
    It is still possible to make a nice profit out of it for them. 200,000 tickets, 50 pound each would be 10,000,000.
    3 GBP x 200,000 is 600,000. Plus 200,000 for the prizes and 200,000 for the campaign makes a total of 1,000,000. If the building costs of the houses would be 6,000,000 they would still make a profit of 3,000,000 GBP

    edit: at this moment it says:
    "Congratulations! You have won 50% off a ticket, click buy to purchase:"
    This gives me some hope for receiving the mp4 player :)
  • I didn't see anyone at Waterloo this morning though I was there at 8.30 - perhaps I just missed them?

    i won one too, was quite optimistic about it.. you all think it won't come?
    I thought because they're only giving away 50% off tickets now then all the mp4's had been won?
    let me know what you all think..
    Started comping: Dec 08 :)
    Recent WINS: AEGON Classic tickets, face pack.

    the site let me enter again and won 50% off a ticket after the first win of an mp4 player. makes me wonder if it accepted the first win as now it says I have already entered the competition.
    why it say that after the 50% win and not after the mp4 win?
