I am a little bit delayed in posting this thanks as I wanted things to confirmed first and then I started a new job at a Day Nursery so I have been completely wiped out by the time I have got home for the last couple of weeks!!!!
So a MASSIVE thanks to ChelseaGirl and I'm so sorry it has taken so long to put this up!!
I received a phone call from Company Magazine back on Tues 29th March to say I had won the 'VIP b.tempt'd Lingerie Shopping Experience With Esmee Denters at Selfridges' competition which ChelseaGirl posted here!! (I may have been having a nap when they called and wasn't really sure what was going on!! Hahaha)
I went online and looked at the range and realised that it didn't go up to a big enough size for me
I decided that I would wait for the comfirmation email she had promised me to come through before I decided what to do as she hadn't actually told me I would get any free Lingerie!! I didn't hear anything all week and eventually phoned on the Friday!! She said she was just waiting on confirmation of the times and she would be in touch asap!! She then phoned back to ask what size I was then they could get some samples ready for me to try!! I explained that they didn't go big enough and she said she would call the company running the competition and get straight back to me!! This was at 2:30pm on Friday and I didn't hear anything back from them!! I assumed that they company had said no and they were just going to pick another winner!!
I then got a call on the Monday to say that they had spoken to the company and I was going to be able to choose from the Premium brand Wacoal's catalogue instead as those went up to bigger sizes!! The only downside would be that I wouldn't be able to try them as they don't stock them at Selfridges Trafford Centre and I would have to wait for them to be sent out to me!!! Which I didn't mind at all!!!
I had such a wonderful afternoon and they all went out of their way to help me!! They 'measured' me (as in looked at me told me what size I was without any sort of measuring and gave me a bra to try that fitted perfectly!!! I was AMAZED!!) and surprise, surprise I was wearing the wrong size!! They let me pick 4 sets of underwear from the catalogue and I managed to get a sneaky little look at the RRP of one of the bras and it was £54!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek:
Then I met Esmee and she signed a CD for me and chatted with me for a while and then I got to watch her perform!!!
It was a brilliant afternoon and I couldn't believe how nice everyone was!!!!
So thank you soooooooooooooo much ChelseaGirl for posting the comp!! I have never spent so much on underwear in my life!!
Just waiting for it to be delivered now!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks as well to all the posters, you guys are amazing!!!
