Just some thoughts on winning a holiday.
Even though you've won a holiday, occasionally it can still end up costing you quite a lot of money, Please make sure you can afford to win it before you enter.
A few things which come to mind which are often not covered include, Travel Insurance, this can be quite costly for eg the US. Some visas you have to pay for, Like India, our last ones were £30 each, Food isn't always included, it too adds up over a couple of weeks. Getting to and from the airport, overnight hotel, parking etc
But hey, we're all money savers right, no probs then, Enjoy your holidays..........

It is a good idea but would mean more work for the mods. I'd offer to look after it myself but doubt that you can just be given mod privileges for one thread and they're not going to want to let me loose on the whole board, unless I go through the proper channels I guess.

Actually: How about I start a post on the regulars board, and just update the first post with links to any current daily ones?

That sounds like a good idea - or do you want me to do it? (PM me if you want)

Loads of prizes but you need a code from a Disney product - on-line has more details

Only problem is that I got a code from the Power Rangers magazine and it doesn't work!!!!!!

Anyone else have this problem???

Aaaaargh happened again!! With code from Tesco (Disney) Easy peel satsuma things!!!! Code is really clear - no confusion between letters or numbers and it just won't accept the code!!

I entered one last week from another Disney mag and it went through fine - won a book in fact - LOL

I posted the last one off to them saying that the code didn't work but no reply so far

Or right click 'www.bearsonthesquare.com/xwin.htm#comp' turning it blue, copy, click the globe and paste the copy into the box making sure theres only one set of 'http://' at the beginning, click ok then when it opens on your page whats highlighted in blue can be overwritten with anything you want.

It's like a lot of things it's easier to do than it sounds when reading

I realise that GMTV has pulled the plug on all their comps at the mo, as a result of all the hoo hah over their phone in comps. However, I was just wondering what's happened about the on line comps that we all merrily entered a while ago and have either reached their end date or are about to.
Whats happened to the prizes etc.
Surely they should be honouring those that were already running etc. or they risk even more controversy. In their statement on the website it seems to refer to the phone in's and not the on line comps.
Any thoughts
