    Sounds about right- they will email you a claim number, write the claim number on the back of the scratchcard, print out the email and send them off with a loose stamp.
    Then you will get a letter confirming your prize and asking you to confirm your details, send with another loose stamp.
    The prizes are allocated according to the symbols on the scratchcard, ie 3 pigs will be £10 etc.
    (I now have a list of current prizes so anyone feel free to PM me and I will check your symbols)

    Apparently one of my 'wins' is £10 so it might be worth me claiming that :p

    I was thinking on asking them to send the claim no. via email as I have an old address I rarely use - saves a stamp at least

    When you send the stamps off what do you do, just put them loose in the envelope? All mine are the pre-sticky ones so I dont really know how to go about sending them

    If you get a book of stamps just tear off a bit of the card with the stamp on and put it loose in the envelope :)

    Just sending my first letter off now. You can get these cards in the in -store magazine from a prominent food retailer beginning with the letter 'T' if you're looking. :o

    I got one of these cards last month - I got 3 loaves on one panel and 2 tyres on another.
    I sent off my info for the 2 tyres assuming that is probably £10 as it is the minimum prize for 2 matching symbols. I have not yet heard back, but today i got another card (as ChennyM) 2 panels proved to be a winner exactly like my last - 3 loaves on one and 2 tyres on another.
    Now firstly I was wondering is it worth claiming for the 3 loaves or is that definitely going to be the holiday with it being the same on both cards?

    Secondly it states on the back that there is a max of 2 claim requests per promotion. Is that 2 per person or per household? And how do you know it is the same promotion? Is that where the 'Dept PCN XXX' comes into it? I.E if both cards have that same dept number are they both the same promotion? Just they have different telephone numbers on the scratch panel as well as different codes to text in for a claim number??

    I'm sorry for all the questions, but this is the first time I have done this and I am rather dim so just trying to be sure I don't trip up anywhere :)
