    Mine have been absolutely terrible, I've even done poems where I've done them in the shape of 'TESCO'.. I thought that was slightly creative :rotfl:

    I think this is the one I like the most which I came up with -
    Tills that go 'bleep' all day long
    Even the toilets don't have a pong!
    Shopping trolleys which don't have a wobbly wheel
    Customers always think that has a great feel!
    Oh please Mr Tesco, i've done my best, I hope you like my song.. lets put it to the test!

    This was my last one - just one hidden reference to the prize I wanted but the Magic Eye doesn't work very well with such a small image - Didn't get time to change it!

    I think my best was:

    My Mother wants a sewing machine,
    My Father a computer,
    For my wife its a diamond ring,
    My son an Electric Scooter.
    My daughter wants a Make Up Set,
    For my niece its a Playmobil Zoo,
    But they can all take a running jump
    ‘Cos I want an iPad2!

    But it looks pretty lame compared to some of the entries, people come up with some amazing ideas!

    Well done to all the winners, and commiserations to the rest of us!

    OH did one where it was an eye testing chart spelling out laptop.

    I'll be glad when it's over too. Some of the winning ones I have liked, others I haven't... but still it's up to Tesco and it's their comp/their preference.

    Even if we don't win here
    We can win it anywhere
    We'll do it the MSE way :).

    That's good, but a tad over the 250 characters...

    Glad this is over now wasted 6 days scratching my head thinking up rhymes. My most creative is the top one but I kind of prefered my topical humourous ones....Guess they dont get a chance to watch the News :(

    Like Saddam, Gaddafi's stuck down a hole,
    Looking for a new dictatorship role,
    TescoDirects vacancies are worth a look,
    He should apply online with this netbook,
    And stack shelves instead of being on the dole.

    The facebook teen was a recruiter,
    to get people to be a looter,
    now hes in jail,
    trying to get bail,
    Should of used TescoDirect on this computer.
    The rugby world cup is due to start,
    Early trip to Tescos with my shopping cart,
    Stocking up on beers,
    Companions will give three cheers,
    Occassions like this need a TV thats SMART.
