    Hmmm well I would love to win any of these prizes because I need to replace all my kitchen goods and they are expensive to replace so I would be very happy if I won. If people don't think the prizes are great then don't enter simple as. I do think it's a bit ungrateful moaning. SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!

    I dont think its moaning, just perhaps saying what we all feel for a company of its size and value??

    I don't think it's moaning either - I'd like to win them but I'd rather win the Next comp. Tesco are massive and these are prizes I'd expect from a small cookware company. I'd still be grateful but it's just an observation:)
    Since starting again after beanie: June 2016: Child development DVDs, Massive Attack tickets. July: Aberystwyth trip, hotmilk nightie. Aug: £10 Hipp Organic vouchers, powerpack. September: Sunglasses. October: £30 poundland vouchers.

  • I think it's whinging rather than moaning

    As I stated at the beginning of my posts on these prizes ... yes I do sound ungrateful and really nasty but I bet there were several people who thought the same as me :D the only reason I have entered is to give anyone who wants the goods another chance to win as I stick by what I stated in the first place .. If I win anyone who wants the items can have them... I am not one to normally enter comps that I do not have any interest in winning .. i.e DVD's, toys, tickets for events I wouldnt have any interest in, but couldnt help myself with the Tesco one ... I am sorry if I have offended anyone :( I seriously was making light of the fact a big company like tescos can offer prizes of pie tins :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    The main prize is
    WIN a one day tasting and demonstration course for you and a friend with Jean Christophe Novelli at his cookery school.
    Depending on the course that is worth at least £300.

    You can enter for that every day and at the same time the daily entry also gives you the chance to win one of the small prizes which are really just a bonus for entering the main comp. I don't see that it matters if they are worth 50p or £50 as they are extra to the main prize.

    Only posting as this is near the top ....

    I really don't see why peeps keep bumping to chat about the "menial" prizes being offered by Tesco. We can't alter anything and all the chat in the world will not affect the quality of the prizes.

    There are plenty of other advents to enter and, as mjm states above, this perhaps isn't such a bad deal if you're interested in winning the main prize icon7.gif
    Wins since 2009 = £17,600

    MANY THANKS TO ALL OPS
