Was hoping to win an XBox 360

Hi,

I have been trying desperately for months and months to win an X-box for my 3 boys Christmas. Well since I have had no luck I have had to bite the bullet and have gone and bought one :(.


You do now know what is going to happen ......:rotfl::rotfl:

    Ditto. I'm trying to win one for my brother with no luck. He could have some cat treats that came in the post today :)

    I have even tried texting the coke competition at 3am!

    good luck all - I was really lucky the other year won a PS3 one of my best wins - But no my son wanted an Xbox - lucky for me (and my) brother he wanted a PS3 so bought an Xbox and we did an exchange.

    it was great Christmas day as he really didnt expect it as we had already told him we couldnt afford one.
