    If you're REALLY bothered just get in touch with Grants,they will send more.If it were allowed I would send you mine,just to get them out of the house.They really are THAT bad.
  • I have won three sets of glasses, the ones that I won were good quality, one set did arrive with one glass smashed, I emailed Grants and they sent out another set. No complaints here. :T

  • Thanks Everyone..Oh well looks like its my glasses then, Maybe next month the Comping Fairy will be good to me...
  • I've just seen the comp for a week in Couples and it is aimed at readers of a wedding magazine so basically aimed at honeymooners.

    How do other compers feel about entering comps like these if they are not honeymooners?

    :undecided:think:
    Thanks to those that post the comps!!

    :undecided:think:

    Unless the T&C prevent me entering on the grounds of age/sex/home address etc. then I have no qualms about entering a comp that is not aimed at me. The promoters run comps for the publicity and/or to get your contact details and will thus be happiest if they get a large number of entries - I really don't think they care who wins the prize. Compare (eg. in a magazine) the space they allocate to new competitions, with the list of winners from a previous comp which sometimes needs a magnifying glass to read! I'm sure some only list previous winners to convince potential entrants of new comps that they actually do award the prizes offered!

    PS. I have won several prizes that were not aimed at my sex/age group/tastes but which made excellent presents for friends & family.
