    Sounds like a standard marketing thing to get you to send for their catalogue. Does it say you have won or you could have won? Bet it says an amount has been allocated but doesn't tell you how much. Could only be a fiver, and you have to spend £100 to get it or something like that.
    If you have nothing constructive to say just move along.

    You will then get the catalogue and voucher for £10 or so off your first order.

    Just standard misleading marketing, don't bother with it unless you actually want a catalogue.

    When they say you have been selected for a sum of money that probably means they will give you say £3 or £4k credit to spend with them like they give all their customers;)

    Hope you shredded it first, Rogjen - I've started shredding all my junk mail because much of it seems to be around giving me money to spend and I don't want someone else to spend it on my behalf!!!
