    Any MSE winners today? :confused:
    From looking at the first few posts of this thread... there were many many winners from MSE. :money:

    However, this promotion has become more and more popular due to promotion packs now being easy to pick-up in store, school holidays starting in addition to the competition being advertised on national TV.

    As a result, I would imagine the chances of winning are now significently lower than at any other time during the competition.

    People buying 50+ cans over and over doesn't seem very 'moneysaving' as it looks like odds are stacked against people.

    Good luck anyhow everyone. :) Just remember to stick to your limit on how much you can afford to gamble.


    *Runs off to buy some highly refreshing 'Coca-cola'. Much nicer than pepsi. ;) *

    No Mse Winners today then? I was coming to see how people were getting on.I went to carphonewarehouse and actually saw a Nokia 5800 right there and then on a service desk as a customer was looking at one and learning how to use it.I had a look too and she didnt mind.It has great graphics from what I saw and a bouncing ball game too and its worth £210.00 on pay as you go.Thats as close to one I am ever going to get.

    £210? I suppose the £299 valuation is because of the 'comes with music' addon. I don't personally consider this as anything special as music can be obtained from other sources. ;)

    So as you say, £200ish is the price that they are worth. No doubt Pepsi buy them for under £100 in return for advertising the hell out of them.

    I would however, advise people to read the first 5 pages of this thread if they haven't already. 90% of early posters have a 'Nokia 5800' win on their signature. One person even won FOUR in quick sucession! It definitely pays to notice these comps early. :p

    Good luck again to people still trying. Can see 3 or 4 more winners from MSE until the end. Hopefully more... but doubt it!

    Think Ive changed my mind.

    Dont think I will bother buying any more packs of pepsi tomorrow, think i'll do 2 thunderballs instead and buy a scratch card. Got more chance of winning something on that me thinks.Haha!! :) Ive got a few cans left which I will enter tomorrow :)

    And hopefully I will get a good '1st' win in one of the other free competitions!

    Does anyone think it may be better to wait until closer to the end of the comp now? I was thinking as most people win they may stop entering or get bored of it and give up so maybe waiting a few weeks may help? What do you lot think?

    Oooh, go on rub it in! I've been entering since the very first damned draw! :rotfl:

    Anyway, I'm leaving it now for the weekend and I'll do my last few on Monday.

    Good luck to everyone this weekend - I'll keep popping in and checking on how you are doing :T

    Think I might do just that :)

    It ends on 31st August, so I might start entering codes a week before that and see how it goes. Thanks for the idea minnie;)
