    I think the difference is that other people changed/adapted etc well known lyrics to meet their needs whereas this entry wasn't altered one tiny bit and therefore was totally someone elses work.

    granted.. but the same principle applies as I was responding to them using their own 'creative' but original ideas.. (one word was changed on one of the song ones for instance.. original?) ;)

    I dont want to see another thread locked so wont go on.. i'm not defending the person involved as I think it was a little naughty too btw.. but think its now up to all the parties involved to sort it out!

    anyway.. what a nightmare having to wait untill 5.30 to see the winners.. might be a day wasted entering for something already won.. I wish tesco would confirm whether it will only be one of a certain type of item being given out..

    does that also apply to those that have used song lyrics and nursery rhymes to win their prizes?

    just askin'

    Yes but taking someone elses poem is a bit unfair especially as he's an mse member. What if he had wanted to use his own poem?

    really don't think that member was the actual author - more someone making a point? big reminder for us all though, hope the chicken winner is feeling ok today - at the end of the day they do good things rescuing battery hens and giving them a lovely home, not as if they were doing it to line their own pockets or get a swanky 3d tv etc.
    So annoyed about the weekend updating at 5.30pm!
    Trying very hard to be frugal and OS - just plodding on and doing my best!

  • I've seen people mentioning they are entering via e-mail? What's the address please? I'm popping out in a bit, and if i can enter via e-mail on my phone, that would be fab!

    Here you go from the fb FAQ :
    Q. I am having trouble entering my details - is there another way i can enter?
    A. Yes, if you are having trouble entering your details then please send your full name, mobile number, catalogue number, name and price of item and reason for winning it (in no more than 250 words to facebook@uk.tesco.com

    I'm going out also and will give this a go. Hth

    If you read my other posts you will see I thought it unfair too!

    my post was in response to the claim that all others were using 'creative and original ideas'

    don't know if this has been mentioned but the item not in stock message stays on screen so you need to refresh before entering your next item
