The Winners[/title]
100 names have been picked and a private message sent to them. If you entered the giveaway, please log into your username account to see if you've received a notification.

The first 50 to follow the instructions in the private message will receive a copy of the title.

If I don't hear from at least 50 people by next Monday morning (with their full, correct details), any remaining books will be given out on a first come first served basis (subject to whether you've received a book in previous giveaways, though it's worth private messaging anyway as if there are many copies left over, you may still get one) at a later point. So please be quick!

Please DO NOT send me a private message if YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION FROM ME. Just keep an eye on this thread, it'll be updated with details of how to request a leftover copy, if there are any, at some point on or after 6 December.

What to do[/title]
If you're interested, just reply to this (click on 'post reply') and say:

"¡Yo quiero, quiero, quiero!"

To do this you need to be registered for the Forum (if you're not, when you click reply you'll be taken through the process. It's free, of course).

APPEAL: Please ONLY reply to this thread if you will check your private messages to see if you've won a copy next week (week commencing 29 November). If you don't get in contact promptly you won't receive a copy and if there are any remaining books they'll be given away.

But bear in mind 100 names are being picked and there are only 50 books, so you'll have to get in quick.

Also, please DON'T email in as your name won't be counted. Nor include your contact details in this thread as, for your own safety, we don't allow personal details on the public forum so your post may be deleted.

This giveaway appears in the weekly email (if you don't already get the email go to www.moneysavingexpert.com/tips) and will close on Monday 29 November so please get your posts in before then.

How will the people be chosen?

100 people will be picked at random (we've a special little computer programme to do it) and a private message will be sent to each of their winning usernames requesting their FULL NAME and ADDRESS details (please ensure you delete your sent messages after doing this).

The FIRST 50 people to get back to me will win a copy of the book.

You must reply to the private message I've sent from the username account you entered the competition with. There will be no exceptions if between entering, winning and replying you've changed your username or can't remember the account's password to access it.

The giveaway has a strict one entry per household policy and entries can be deemed ineligible without any explanation or notification.

When will I get the book?

The publisher providing these books will send them out directly though, to aid administration, this won't happen until all 50 winners have provided their name and address. So it may take a couple of weeks between the giveaway's end and actual receipt. This thread will be updated to let winners know when they have been sent out.
