I didn't post last week's comp because I couldn't find the bloomin' elephant. Spent the best part of the week driving myself nuts trying. Turns out they had forgotten to put him in the mag! :(

    Whenever I enter these, I have a read receipt come back saying deleted without being read. I wonder whether its worth entering if this is the case??

    If it's before the close-by date that they are deleting without reading then this is naughty. If it's after the close-by date then I can understand this as they would pick one winner at random and you would not expect them to 'read' the hundreds of other entries. This is as far as I understand from these things anyway (I'm not an expert).

    I've only been posting this comp for two months and we've had three winners from here that I know about so suggests it's not a scam?

    Unless all of these winners texted, posted??

    I emailed & won - I've never had a read & deleted email back ?? I send from my ISP email, not hotmail or anything if that's any help. :D

    Bless :A


    Also I'll mention that I changed the wording of the answer for the few weeks before I won - who knows if it makes a difference though :)
