    I need some help if possible, I said to Sweetie that I could do Real People and Pick Me Up magazine today but I am going to be snowed under with work today and have to prepare for a meeting I am travelling to tomorrow.

    Is there any chance that someone else could do these magazines today. Im sorry to let you all down.

    Text Capri to 81066

    The first 5 valid entries drawn from all entries will win a Dell 'Studio 15' Widescreen Laptop, which includes a hi-def 15.3" (40cm) LED widescreen and 2.0 Mega Pixel integrated camera.

    The next 41 valid entries drawn will win a set of Skull Candy Headphones. The next 30 entries will win Portable Speakers and the final 30 entries drawn will win a Digital Camera.

    T&Cs: http://www.capri-sun.co.uk/wanted/backtoschool-tandcs.php

    Text entry costs standard network rates.
    (it all seems to be sorted now)

    [STRIKE]
    but according to brambleboy the confirmation costs 50p...still well below the £1.50 limit but dearer than they make it look :(
    Daphne01 says that T&Cs say the promoter should be paying for these though.............

    Thanks for posting. I've just entered this and it seems I've been charged an extra 50p for the bounceback entry confirmation message. There's no mention of this in the t&c so I have sent them a message via the "contact us" button on the website and hopefully they'll get it sorted.

    EDIT2

    Hmmm, should be no cost according to their web site t&cs :(

    All valid entries will receive a bounce-back text message within 24 hours as confirmation of entry to the prize draw. The Promoter pays the cost of the Promoter's acknowledgement.

    EDIT 3
    I have just entered this and was only charged the 10p text fee (orange PAYG) HTH x
