    Is there a link to the carbon monoxide detector or has that now closed?

    It's closed now. I think it was ITV who had 1000 to give away

    It was a charity giving them away, but they were mentioned by This Morning. Were given away by a dad who's daughter had been killed by carbon monoxide :(

    Glad "telecoms aren't excluded" 'cause yesterday I sold the one I picked up last week. £50 through my local paper free ad's, much easier than ebay. Thank you Tesco.

    My best freebie yet but I'm still trying!

    My best freebie was probably the carbon Monoxide tester.

    The other "best freebie" would be goodwood tickets, my OH and dad had a fantastic free day out!

    What does 'PPRed' mean? It sounds scarey!

    My best freebie was a TMF on a Wilkinson Sword razor about 18 months ago - returned the razor and receipt, and when the cheque came back someone had put the decimal point in the wrong place, so instead of being for £5.75 it printed as £57.50. Needless to say it went straight into the bank; they never tried to stop the cheque and so it ended up being spent.
