    Just a query but has anyone been able to use Skype successfully to enter any of the 'phone competitions? Technically it should be much cheaper. I've tried a couple of numbers and the 'phone isn't answered. Would be very interested to know if anyone else has tried and been successful.

    :eek: £10, I would never ever spend that!!!!!!!! I have just oredered some from the postcard store, I have bought a few cheapish ones but I just dont really like them that much :rotfl: so leaving them for spares and emergencies, sticking to the 'mixed up' ones :D

    ETA: £14 in total?? That's terrible!! They're half the price for the same postcards @ the Postcard store!!
