    I've just checked the terms and conditions, and they are not restricting entrants to the listening area, so at least that's something.

    I'm just going to enter them through TayFM (my local station) from now on anyway if they are limiting the entries, Makes it easier for me to keep track. :rolleyes:

    hi guys. first time posting in the comps thread...generally post in another.

    what do you all think of Coke Zone? I answered this question online a couple of days ago for their market research... when do you drink your Coke? morning, noon or night.... I answered and got two free bonus point to use and entered a competition to win an Xbox 360...well today i got an email saying i'd won!! how cool is that! i'm pretty sure it's genuine, was slightly sceptical at first. Apparently i don't need to do anything, just wait to receive it in the post! exciting...first time i've ever won something!

    just wondering if anybody else has won anything on Coke Zone before? would be nice to know how lcuky i was! could i win again?!

    getting this bug for competitions now, so u'll prob see me round here a bit more!

    :confused: Hey - can someone help a newbie (ish)

    Just posted my first comp and it may be a duplicate (:p) but how does it work if the comp is the same but its posted on different radio station's websites. For example, the comp I posted was from Smooth Radio but Al Mac found it under Real Radio. Is this a duplicate and needs merging or are they individual comps?

    Just a tad confuzzled!

    Thanks (might have posted this in the wrong place as well tho - still a comping virgin numpty!) ;)

    I don't know how many people normally read the IWIWIW section, but I guess not everyone, so I hope that you don't mind me pasting a link here in the discussion thread to a suggestion of a good use of unwanted prizes that might cheer up a sick child. I thought it was a good idea and you might too.

    There is also a comp on the main board here

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1684913

    The prize is small, but it is to raise awareness of the good cause, so please take a look regardless of the small prize.

    Thanks.

    Recently when I've got to the end, I discover I've been logged out, as if the thanks click is no longer counted as activity:eek:

    Anyone else noticed? :confused:





    when im doing comps i always start from thefirst comp posted and just go to previous, and add supscription then thanks! seems to work fine apart from if i add a comment?!

    but when doing the ending ones i have to press back 4 times to get bk to the page!!

    Im currently upto date with posts, or as good as:D I am not entering as they are posted

    remember that some of the comps although they may have finished they may not have drawn the winners yet - some sites can be quite slow at notifying/sending out prizes


    hope you get some wins soon:D
