    I posted a thread this morning regarding this lookfantastic competition:
    http://www.lookfantastic.com/features/12_Days_of_Christmas_-_Win.html?cid=enews_NOV09-9_12Days

    But I can't find it now, and its been deleted from my posting history:confused: Anyone know why?

    Perrhaps because it's not free to enter??

    There's a £1.50 limit on purchase required comps.

    Thanks guys, but there is a no purchase necessary route as well when you login/register.

    I thought there nay have been confusion about that, so i've reposted making that more clear hopefully.

  • Can I asked seasoned MSE compers. Is it always busy on the last day of each month. No word of a lie there must have been 70 pages worth of 30/11's......I see it's near the same for 31/12's as well..
  • Yep, always that busy! Last month I made the same mistake and spent about 10 hours straight entering because I didn't want to miss out!! xxx

    Hi all, peeps on the Compers inn thread suggested I post this here, just wondering if someone can help:

    I'm visiting family (in the UK still) for 3 weeks over Xmas, therefore I won't be at my home address. And after I've been furiously comping for the last few weeks, I worry that I might have a few things arrive on my doorstep - I know you can get post re-directed which I will probably do, but will this mean any comp wins I (may) get will be re-directed too? Or will they just turn up, as some are not necessarily sent by Royal Mail? I won a Cranium game last week and that turned up mid-afternoon. Do prizes generally come with the regular post?

    Thanks in advance
