    This is quite a good Facebook search site, if you put your Facebook name along with something like 'winner' or 'congratulations' it may pick mentions up:

    I asked this question in the Inn but probably would of been wiser to ask it in this thread. Hi just wondering if anybody actual goes to the local car showrooms to test a car if their is a competition involved? If so do you tell them you are only test driving it to enter a competition or do you make them believe you are interested in the car?
    I've alway wondered about this.

    I have a "cash card" from the Mail newspaper - you scratch it and if you get 3 identical cash amounts you win. They publish a new cash amount every day giving you extra chances to win.

    Thing is, I'm getting bored checking every day :o
    Now, as well as the cash amount each game also scratched off a code - some sort of reference/security check for the Mail. On mine each game has the identical code. Does this mean I haven't won and might as well give up?
