    Picked up a copy of Posted magazine (free) in my local PO. Entry form near back for several comps including DAB radio, household bills paid for a year, bunch of flowers, £6k of electrical goods, Holiday to Hong Kong (think someone posted this in on-line comps, but I couldn't find these others on-line).

    I picked up a copy of posted Yesterday at my local post office, well chuffed when I saw mention of comps on the cover. When I got home and started to read it, it was the Christmas edition, and they were all out of date. lol

    I will look out for a newer one, thanks

    I saw one with lots of snow and people sledging in my favourite tiny post office the other day - is that the Christmas one? If so I won't bother picking it up next time I'm in.

    Taken from the latest issue of SHE magazine:

    'We have 50 pairs of tickets to be won to A Place in the Sun Live! exhibition. Answer this question: What is the name of A Place in the Sun's presenter? Send answers to:

    SHE A Place in the Sun Competition
    SHE
    72 Broadwick Street
    London
    W1F 9EP'

    The answer is Amanda Lamb (I think :confused:).

    *The exhibition is at Excel, London, 30 March to 1 April 2007.

    I'm not having a good day finding competitions so far (only old Post Office magazines, nothing in the free paper, nothing worth entering in the 2 local papers so far), but have just come across a gem in the local papers. This had better be a weekly thing rather than a one off mess up.

    Basically:
    I have 2 local papers for towns A and B - both from the same publishers. Both with crosswords.
    Paper A crossword is just for fun.
    Paper B crossword has a £25 prize attached.
    Both use the same crossword.
    Paper A is a week ahead of paper B.
    So ... In paper A this week are all the answers for the crossword in this week's paper B. This'll save me a LOT of time :D

    If you have been collecting nescafe beans and buying stuff with them, they will send you a magazine every now and again, the mag I got today has a coupon in to send off to WIN AN ECO PACK.

    Looks like an eco kettle and radio, lots of Ecover stuff and eco balls that kind of thing, just send off the coupon :D

    In the Lidl price leaflet for 5 March (its got motorcycle stuff in it) there's a comp for a 7 day holiday for 2 in a 5* hotel on Kos, Greece. Excludes July, Aug, school holidays etc. Answer = Eridanous.

    Edit: Hand it to a cashier once completed.

    Does anyone have Best magazine? I noticed that they had a good prize draw giving away 150 hampers but didn't get to jot down the info in the shop. lol. I've already bought enough mags this week so didn't want to buy it just for the draw.

    If someone has it would you be kind enough to post the postal entry details please.
