Wow! You guys have had some really great prizes. I have done well this year but my favourites were:
* Nintendo Wii and signed boxing glove from Joe Calazaghe
* BiOrb Aquarium and accessories worth £500 :eek:
* £250 from Magnum which I bought a PS3 for my OH - in my debt for the whole year :rotfl:
Lots of other items but well chuffed. This month is really bad but I'm not complaining (but that's my fault for playing Modern Warfare 2 instead of comping!!!!!). Thanks to all posters and wishing everyone a Happy Christmas and a lucky 2010 :beer:
EDIT: Just got a phone call from my mam and she has won an IPOD Nano from Coke Zone - she's exstatic as this is what she has wanted for ages. Good on ya mam."We all change when you think about it. We're all different all through our lives. And that's okay, that's good. You've got to keeping moving. As long as you remember all the people that you used to be." - The Doctor0 -
I only found MSE in May but I've had an absolutely belting year, I've gone from having nothing to a house full of gadgets, all my wins wether they were a galaxy book, a crunchie or a PS3 have had me whooping and a hollering
altho I cried like a baby when I won the Pepsi Nokia phone so I shall put that as my best win :j
but best of all abeit not really a win, have been the friends I have made during the bonkers comp - you know who you are :T
A huge thank you to everyone who takes the time to post the comps and a huge thank you to everyone for making MSE what it is :-)This will (hopefully) be mine No 131Cash, Laptop, Iphone 3GS0 -
Great thread :j
My biggest win was on Bonkers about biscuits. Made quite a bit of cash and a good friend too. I agree with pigtails about the Bonkers comp, the sharing and the honesty was amazing. :T
My favourite wins have been a Troll Bead, a Dwight Shrute Bobble head and a really expensive roasting tin. They're my favourites as these things I really love but would never have bought them for myself.
Thank you to everyone who looks for and posts the competitions and helps out with the answers. You are a great team. :beer:0 -
