A couple of winning queries

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I have a couple of queries.
I won a Vodkat kit on the 1st September, should I have received this yet, or is it normal that I haven't a month on?
I also googled my name which came up that I'd won something from a competition in August, I haven't heard anything about winning this competition. My name isn't common at all. Should I contact them to see if it is me?

Thank you if anyone can help.
Hoping the comping fairy is nice this month and the postman comes.

    The 28 days rule has passed on both your wins, definitely worth sending a polite email to both companies inquiring as to when you should expect the prizes.

  • It's not unusual for a prize to take a couple of months to arrive. But it won't hurt to contact both of them and ask about the delivery and to find out if you are the winner .

  • Thank you for your replies, I have emailed More Magazine to check whether it was me or not, and on the plus side I entered Vodkat again incase it wasn't coming and have won again, so should definatly receive one of them by end of November.
