  • Whilst this is still on the first page, can I ask something that has been in my mind for ages?

    Has anyone ever won from any of the comps such as this one that are aimed at a certain geographical area?

    The newspaper comps tend to have a set entry form and be run by national publishers but this email is going to a specific person whose job it is to check entries/contact winners. Are they likely to discard winners that come from outside the distribution area? I often wonder the same things about the Get Surry and Get Hampshire comps.


    Thanks for everything weeowens -it is really really appreciated by all and i hope I didn't sound like too much of a moaning minnie :o

    Hi purplebutterfly.It is a perfectly valid question & I do not think you a "moaning minnie".I can't vouch for the policy on this publication but I have had pms & seen posts in "I won" where members have won on newspaper comps & have resided outside of the circulation area.Oxford Journal & The Star come to mind but there have been quite a few others.
    I hope this helps.
  • Thank you :A

    I know some are okay but for some reason the Essex Enquirer ones always have me picturing somebody sitting at a desk deleting piles of comp emails whilst exclaiming "This is for local people", League Of Gentleman style :rotfl:

    Good luck to all and especially weeowens, you are fab :T

    I've wondered that too, and also if you are female and enter on the gay men sites.

  • I recently won from The Sheffield Star and I live in Herts. They asked me to collect but when I explained they posted it (arrived this afternoon in fact)
