    Hey Toni! :)

    There was a comp for which you had to sign up for their newsletter and text alerts. Could it be that one? There were 175 x £100 gift cards to be won. Not sure if it was posted on MSE.

    Fingers crossed!!

    Easter that doesn't work?!?!?
    It just says from M&S and the reply button hasn't lit up, going through the 900 odd texts on my phone, things like t mobile i cant text back either, i presume because they r buisnesses that don't deal with texts? I can text other msgs, just need to figure out what to do!??!?!
    thanks for helping xx
